Well, that was pretty s**t, waasn't it? There is a 10-minute exposition-dump that completely ruins all of the - rather good, I thought - momentum that the episode had built up, up to that point. Anita is back, probably last-minute after the incredible response her story got, because she does nothing at all and could have been replaced by a nameless manager. The interresting Rani is killed. Omega is a big ugly moster like we all feared. The charaters are reduced to exposition expositors. The plan set up in the last episode is thwarted with barely any effort. 3 and 11 get blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameos for no descernable reason (happy 20th, I guess). The Poppy thing is "clever" in all the annoying ways that RTD and Moffatt can be "clever", another impossible girl. "Sometimes, I think we're all your children" yuck. 13 is back, take that how you will. THASMIN!?!???! Susan died on the way home to her planet. THE ROSE DOCTOR? ARE YOU F-ING KIDDING ME!?!??!??! This show is washed. 2/10 what the hell.
