Definitely a Who story worthy of the Hinchcliffe era, and it does a great job for something trying to recapture the feel of that golden period. I've seen it described as Talons of Weng Chiang meets Ghost Light and that's a good comparison. It's long but really enjoyable with Tom Baker and Louise Jameson being on top form throughout, and Leela being back in the Victorian era is just as entertaining as it was in Talons. The fifth episode in Africa does feel a bit like padding but it's not bad by any means. Looking forward to listening to the rest of these.

This story still very much has the feel of the Hinchcliffe era, with a terrific claustrophobic atmosphere throughout as an alien force begins picking through the cast by one on one, and Tom Baker and Louise Jameson are on top form. Only thing that lets it down slightly is I think the Rutan is a slight anti-climax, mainly because the design is a bit too silly for my tastes. Definitely a great way to open the season though.

I don't know about that one really, need to watch it again. Absolutely loved last week but didn't feel it was a fully satisfying conclusion to that story.

There were some fantastic character moments for The Doctor especially in there, Moffat is great at that sort of stuff but the actual plot itself didn't quite make ends meet for me. I get what they were going for with The Master creating a Cybermen army for The Doctor's birthday, she's obsessed with him and it's a nice change to to the usual ''take over Earth'' story but it was all a bit underwhelming and didn't seem to make that much sense to me.

Thought it was terrific and felt so fresh and different compared to other finales we've had under Moffat. Think the Nethersphere concept is really creepy and was a great way to bring back The Master and the Cybermen in the same episode.

Obviously the main talking point us the big reveal, got no problem with Missy being The Master at all and think Michelle Gomez is very good, though the kissing and flirting between her and The Doctor just had to happen, didn't it? Haha.

Yeah, wasn't a massive fan. Would definitely say it's the worst episode so far. Expected more from Cottrell Boyce but it wasn't very engaging. The children were annoying, there was very little going on and it was just all a bit too mawkish for my tastes.

Another very good episode. Enjoyed last week a little more but loved the idea of The Boneless and they could easily return too. The resolution wasn't much but that didn't spoil things too much. Very interested to see where The Doctor and Clara's relationship is going, the character development has been terrific.

That was terrific. Never expected it to be that good, it had everything I want from Who.

Loved the way the mystery was solved bit by bit, the sets and costumes were great, the mummy was very creepy and it followed up last week's events very well too.

Pleased we're getting another Mathieson episode next week now.

Very good stuff, I wasn't really a fan of Courtney and the moon being an egg plot was admittedly a bit silly but it didn't really matter in the end, it was all window dressing for the moral dilemma.

The beginning with the whole base under siege and the and the dilemma and subsequent fall out between The Doctor and Clara made for some fantastic scenes between Capaldi and Coleman. Think that's the moment that will eventually resulting in Clara leave the show so it's nice to see something so significant in a mid-season episode and I think you could understand both characters point of view.

Enjoyed it, felt very RTD actually, Miss Delphox in particular seemed lifted out of one of his episodes.

That means it was slightly camp but it was entertaining - The Doctor robbing a bank was a fun concept and even though it was yet another non-linear story, which have basically become the hallmark of the Moffat era, I liked how everything came together and The Teller was a well done monster.

I thought it was great, a completely psychological horror story that's not done enough nowadays. It was a character study of The Doctor and was perfect in that regard. Capaldi is perfect for this sort of thing and the twist at the end of him as a child was very unexpected.

Best episode so far for me, definitely.

Daft but fun. Not much in the way of a plot and I'd hate it if Who was like that every week but for what looks like it's gonna be a dark series, some light hearted episodes are gonna be needed at some point and it did its job.

As a big Robin Hood fan, the interactions between The Doctor and him were fun to see and Twelve's personality lends himself to that sort of humour.

Really enjoyed the episode, it did tread some familiar territory, the Daleks have been done so many times now that it's always gonna be the case but it was well done. The Daleks were menacing again and the idea of getting inside one was certainly interesting.

Finally though, Capaldi really is a fantastic actor, love his portrayal. The character's a complete contrast to Tennant and Smith and has turned what you expect from a modern Doctor completely on it's head after those two were fairly similar. Is he a good man? I'm not entirely sure.

Enjoyed it, thought it was definitely better than the majority of Series 7B and Time of the Doctor.

The first half wasn't on par with the second half, which was brilliant, from the restaurant scene, through to the breathing scene, the showdown between the Doctor and Smith's cameo but the slower pace at the start gave the whole world and story a chance to breathe, which isn't always the case in Who.

First impressions on Capaldi are that he's gonna be great, though it'll be better to start judging him next week when he's sane for the whole episode.

I think I'm officially getting tired of Moffat's vision of Who. He really doesn't seem like he has anything else to give to the show.

So much happened in that episode that should have been epic but none of it was. The return of the Timelords, the Doctor's last life, the regeneration into Capaldi...and I couldn't think of a worse way to handle them all than what we got to be honest.

I wanted to like it but I really didn't on first watch. Started off interestingly but soon went downhill. Not a worthy farewell for Smith.

Loved most of it. The opening titles, the unexpected Baker and Capaldi cameos, the fantastic chemistry between Tennant and Smith. It was incredibly entertaining.

Not sure how I feel about the effects of the Time War being reversed at this moment in time though. I mean, I knew the Time Lords would be back eventually and it has the potential to make for a great arc but it just means that the previous seven years lose a bit of their luster.

This episode is probably what this season will be remembered for. It was brilliant and a great lead in to the 50th anniversary episode. I thought the whole idea of going into The Doctor's time stream was terrific and it allowed us to see all of the past Doctors again too. Very intrigued by the John Hurt revelation.

Not a fan of this. The story was a bit all over the place. Wasn't a fan of the portrayal of the Cybermen, it was supposed to make them scary again but that couldn't have been further from the truth and as much as I love Matt Smith, I've got to agree that he wasn't very convincing in the split personality scenes either.

Really surprised this came from Neil Gaiman.

Not a massive fan of this, it was a little too silly for my tastes and I wasn't a massive fan of the plot. Thought the pacing was a bit all over the place too. Probably my least favourite episode of Series 7 overall.

Really liked this. A look inside the TARDIS was great and the fact that they were fighting the TARDIS was a really interesting concept too.It was another timey wimey themed story, I've lost count of the ones we've seen under Moffat but I don't mind when it's well done.

Really liked this. Started off as a simple ghost story, became a sci-fi story and finished off as a love story whilst also adding to the season arc. There were some great scenes between the characters, though I will say that the woman in the pocket universe was completely pointless in the end.

A fun base under siege episode that definitely echoed the classic series. It certainly felt a lot more Doctor Who than the previous two episodes and I thought the Ice Warriors were re-imagined very well.

This seems such a divisive episode. I'm assuming the singing has a big part to play in that. Felt like Doctor Who: The Musical at times.

I honestly still don't know whether I like it or not. It was certainly unique, it had a lot of heart and it actually felt very Star Trek to me at times but it did reek of sentimentality. I do know that I loved the reference to The Doctor's monologue at the end though, even if him losing his memories wasn't particularly well explained.

Still hard to know what to make of this one. The idea wasn't exactly new but it certainly had a different feel to it. Thought it was a pretty low key opening episode in the truth though. There were a couple of very creepy scenes and nice some nice banter between The Doctor and Clara but nothing particularly memorable. It was certainly no Eleventh Hour.

Thought that this was by far the best Christmas special the show has done and The Christmas Invasion is the only one that even comes close.

Very funny script, a great festive story and a nice introduction to the arc over the second half of the season. Loved the Sherlock Holmes deduction scene!

This was the best episode of the first half for me. I definitely think that it could've been a two parter because it zapped along but I loved the noir feel and thought it was a great farewell for the Ponds.
