Okay this had a great first part, and then I can't really remember what happened between the second and third, so this would be a 2,5 or 3/5.

Except for the fact that we have communist Daleks in here, controlled by a plant that a Thal has planted into them so they can go and carry the bolshevik revolution across time and space, and I just have to applaud that crazy af idea.

And the best part is that the Doctor agrees with that, although knowing the Daleks he thinks of a way for them to kill themselves if they ever go back to their old ways (which of course they do).

Don't know what to think, the end more than makes up for the slog that is the middle part of this story, so yeah, a 3,5/5.

I love it when the Doctor is so based.

Thal-plant hybrid tries to incite a communist revolution amongst the Daleks through use of psychedelics. Yeah, this is an odd one.

Frankly, I can't make heads or tails of the message of this one, and I kept losing track of who was a Dalek duplicate, but the dynamic between Six and Charley is excellent; they have a strong emotional arc throughout the story and both Baker and Fisher clearly acted their hearts out.

Overall, confusing but entertaining, with a hard to parse political angle. In other words, solid Who. 7/10.
