“I think this is one of those instances where discretion is the better part of valour”
Un arc lent (trop lent !) qui malgré ses méchants hyper cute, et une atmosphère tibétaine sympa, ne se contente que d’aligner les clichés les plus fastidieux d’un format déjà usé.
Le pire, c’est que malgré un Travers somme toute assez attachant, on retrouve un peu les mêmes défauts que The Tomb of the Cybermen, mais étirés en six parties.
Là aussi le trio central et les valeurs de production sont donc la grâce salvatrice d’un épisode fondamentalement mal foutu.
Mais si c’est seulement ça qui sauve la saison, alors elle peut vite s’écrouler.
A slow arc (too slow!) that despite its cute yet mean villains, and a nice Tibetan ambiance, only manages to line up the most tedious clichés of an already worn-out format.
The worst part is that despite Travers being quite endearing, we find the same flaws as in The Tomb of the Cybermen, but stretched out over six parts.
Here too, the central trio and production values are thus the saving grace of a fundamentally flawed episode.
But if that’s all that saves the season, then it can quickly collapse.
