i might feel highly of this because ive sat through so much mid since the beginning of this season, but this was genuinely a fun and exciting watch. i think it just really shows how lovable and fun this cast can be when chibnall isnt writing the script. the idea of the solitract in general is so interesting and fun to me and really genius for a one time episode villain!


This review contains spoilers!

Out of the whole season, this was by far the most creative and out-there plots of the season. The alien in the anti-zone I did not like though, it never got explained how or why he was there.

Also, the frog was glorious. Lol

DOCTOR: The Solitract is a frog? Who talks like Grace?

SOLITRACT: My own form is endless, but this frog is a form that delights me, as it once delighted Grace.

(Looking down from the pine forest onto a curved finger of water. The Doctor is rummaging in the ferns and mosses.)

GRAHAM: Ah, nice fjord. That is a fjord, innit? Got your bearings yet, Doc?

(She eats something.)

DOCTOR: Norway. Definitely Norway. One of the frilly bits on the top.
