This is a perfectly fine serial. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that it's pretty good! It felt gritty, realistic and grounded. The setting felt well-developed and interesting, as well as somewhat realistic, and lots of the characters are great (Milo Clancey in particular). There's also some nice twists, subversions of expectations and dramatic irony which I really like. I liked the pacing.

I really, really like A Christmas Carol. I think that's its plot is really clever and well executed and it has some lovely emotional moments. I also think that the sets look pretty good and the music is solid throughout.

In my opinion, The End of Time – Part 2 is solid episode, being both exciting and emotional.

I like The End of Time – Part 1. It builds up tension really well (as I feel a first part of a two-parter should), leading to a solid cliffhanger. There are lots of great characters and lots of great scenes and moments. There's also a lot of really stupid and somewhat nonsensical stuff, but I didn't find it that hard to look past that.

I feel that Resolution has a really strong concept behind it and I love the design, effects and cinematography. However, the story is really let down for me by what feels like increadibly clunky dialogue. There are also a few pacing issues in my opinion. Overall, it is by no means terrible, but I would be extremely hesitant to call it good.

The first time I watched The Caves of Androzani, I didn't like it. After a recent rewatch, I have come to realise that this was more due to the circumstance in which I watched it, not the serial's quality: I had been binging Doctor Who really hard and the Fifth Doctor was starting to drag a bit, so I couldn't wait to get to the Sixth Doctor's run. Following my rewatch, I can no longer deny that this is an absolutely excellent, stand-out, serial. It's tightly written and I think that the characters are really well done - I feel that there is some aspect of moral-ambiguity in each supporting character. The first and third cliffhangers were really good, although I do feel that the second was increadibly unecessary. Moreover, I felt that some of the special effects weren't great. Other than that, a great serial.

The first time I watched this, I loved it. However, on a recent rewatch, I didn't love it quite as much (don't get me wrong, it's still great, but more like 4.5/5 than 5/5). At first I thought that this may be due to already knowing the plot, but I watched it multiple times close to release and loved it each time then. As such, I think this is due to the context of when it was released (and hence when I first watched it): coming off the back of the Chibnal era and directly following The Star Beast, a story that I find dissapointing at best, this was incredible, and, in my opinion, probably the best Doctor Who aired in a while. Now that Ncuti's first season has concluded and I've also been rewatching a lot of older episodes, this story doesn't stand out quite as much. However, I do still think that it is excellent: with the exception of the slightly random opening scene, it is tight and well-paced, fitting togethger really nicely to create an exciting and intriguing narrative. The villains are a really cool concept. The set and CGI (which aren't really things you can talk seperately about for this episode) look excellent (although I didn't find it quite as realistic as I did the first few times I watched it). Overall, a really solid story and the probably the best in a while at the time of its release.

I found this film to be a weird mixture of rushed, yet boring. The plot didn't really interest me and there wasn't that much depth or complexity to it. Ultimately, that's because this is a children's film - as an adult, it is not made for me to enjoy. I can see how this would be enjoyable to a kid on release, but that doesn't carry over to an adult nearly 60 years later. Another thing to note is that, while I could tell that Ian was supposed to have some amount of slapstic humour, I didn't find any of it funny. The Daleks do look good in this colour scheme, though, in my opinion. I also enjoyed Peter Cushing's portrayl of Dr. Who.

I felt that this was quite good. It started off really strong, with quite an engaging premise. The protagonists are instantly likeable while the protagonists are instantly dislikeable. The writing felt increadibly competent and I also like how it is shot and directed. My primary critiques are that I feel some of the adult material doesn't really add much, and also because I felt that the ending was quite weak and abrupt, like they didn't know quite how to wrap it up.

Like the rest of Once and Future, I'm quite dissapointed with this story. To me, it just feels lacking in substance and a bit directionless. Why are all of these characters here? Some of them feel very random, like the writer was given a list of characters and tasked with coming up with some way, any way, for them to all interact. (I also have this problem with some of the other Once and Future stories). I feel like the plot just happens. There's not much build up, or suspense, or mystery. This story didn't bore me, so there's that, but it's clear that this, like the rest of Once and Future, is not well suited to my taste in Doctor Who.
