Yeah, I don't get it. I went into these episodes knowing they were a bit of a fan-favourite and people really like Sil, but this just didn't click for me. It's a side of Doctor Who I'm never a fan of and does show up in both New Who and Old, where we get this chaotic, unfocused mess. I wasn't the biggest fan of Attack of the Cybermen but at least there I could appreciate its relative berevity and at least some neat ideas. Here though, even two episodes felt too long and dragged out to get through comfortably. I just couldn't bring myself to care about this alien world. It all felt too low-budget and artificially put together to get me invested in the setting. Watching Sil stare at a screen and react to stuff over and over really put me off, reminding me of a bad take on the already questionable character Mojo from X-Men comics. Sorry, Vengeance on Varos fans, I am not in your camp.
