An interesting story, if nothing else. The Doctor finally coming back for Susan was always going to be an event, and they certainly made it one. Despite the actual age difference between Ford and McGann, they sell the dynamic beautifully - and I say this as someone who frankly didn't care that much for Susan from the episodes I've seen with her thus far. The idea of a literally xenophobic group forming after the invasion is cool, but isn't played with quite as much as I'd like. The Guldreasi are naff antagonists and I hate that by existing they prove the loser fascists half-right at the end. Alex is. A character. Ngl I felt no attachment to him whatsoever here, I hope he gets better when he pops up again later.
This was a decent enough story that did everything it needed to and little else. 6.5 or 7/10 IMO.
