Firstly, this episode looked SO good. The right-wing vaguely-50s fantasy of it all was really well done, plus the skeletal monsters and bone palace were very fun. I really enjoyed the Rani - I see some people complaining about her characterisation but honestly I have no problems with it and in fact am having a blast watching the dynamic made by Archie Panjabi and Anita Dobson

Lots of this episode was done really well: the aforementioned right-wing fantasy slowly falling apart because of its instability. But this then also brings the question of why, in this world where gay people don't exist, disabled people are pushed to the sidelines, and a woman's role is in the house, are we post-racial? And the answer is of course that the Doctor and Belinda are our two main characters, and need to be trapped in the wish world for the plot to actually happen- which only then leads to the question of "Why did you write a story that doesn't seem to fit your characters?" I don't know. It's an odd one
