Unfortunately, this one did not land for me at all. I wasn't engaged with the plot, nor interested and the ending was just predictable after how they've been skirting around the Daleks for the whole set.

I loved the first episode, and really hope we get more of Sola in the next set but given she's not even in this one then who knows. I do want to love this series, but I am quite underwhelmed.

In some way or another all of these SSS stories have been dancing around the Daleks which considering Mark Seven and everything else makes perfect sense. In this one we get a story about the legacy of Daleks and people worshipping them along with a culture who worships the machines who created their colony in the first place. Add in some political intrigue and this was another good installment though it did take me a second to get on board. I wish there was slightly more of an overarching arc mystery we were dealing with though. All said, an enjoyable listen and the spy craft and plot twists are something not common in Doctor Who adjacent stories.

This starts off so slowly I was like god is this set just an unfortunate dud … BUT NO IT GOT GOING
