The Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Eve: 7.4/10 - This serial was very fun, albeit slightly confusing. I thought part one was a great set up with the characters all being interesting. Part two and onwards felt packed full of different characters and I sometimes couldn’t tell who was on which side as the backgrounds all seemed very similar which made it feel like it was the same set over and over. Steven was definitely the highlight here with he and Anne being a great partnership. The Doctor being absent for the majority of the serial felt right for this story and paved the way for Steven to become more independent. The Abbot of Amboise was a character that didn’t have much to do and that I wish got more screen time.
