Now that would have been great!

The whole Stormcage bit was very reminiscent of the prison in GOTG for me.

Decent episode.I quite liked Graham on the whole, quite a nice bow out for him and Ryan, although Force Nan was a bit cheesy. Yaz is still a bit dull. Assuming President Mr Big will show up in future episodes. I quite like him as a villain.

I'll be honest though - I can't actually remember why any of the characters were where they were. Was the last episode the one with the Cybermen army and the Master, or was there another Christmas special? When was it on telly? What's my name? Who even am an doctor? I don't know whether it's 2020 messing everything around, or that the Doctor Who schedule has been mucked around with so much over recent years, or that it's had a few years of being "meh" (probably a mixture of all three), but I was struggling to connect with it for a good while early on.

I thought I had missed the first episode in a two parter.

Quite a few people I know forgot that series 12 was broadcast in 2020. I dont really blame people for wanting to block out the final :lol:

I can't recall anything about season 12. I know that I had felt it was better than 11 but, beyond that... nothing!

I made it into the thread title :toot:

i heard today is the 50th anniversary of the master

It felt very very full of filler ..... I was hoping that the episode would go more like this, warning I have typed this up with 2 minutes thought dont expect Shakespeare

Can we not have a new monster. It's always bloody Cybermen or Darleks.....

Not sure if this is old news but apparently the rumour is that Jodie will be leaving after the next series?

I like Jodie as the Doctor, she deserves a better writer/showrunner. I'm not a big fan of any of "The Fam" (worst companions since Amy Pond), seeing Graham and Ryan leave isn't a big loss for me. I'm hoping only having two companions might make for a better balance

Amy had the distinct advantage of being the hottest companion.

I really like Pond as a companion, and only about 50% of that is down to her first showing up in a miniskirt :shifty:

Yeah that doesn't exactly fill me with excitement :dread:

Makes sense I guess as 3 series seems to be what anyone does these days but it feels a bit of a shame as she's never really had the writing to let her interpretation shine. Still, there's a chance this last series could be her redemption, it's not entirely analogous but I always felt Capaldi's tenure was saved quite a bit by the strength of his final series so there's still hope!

to be fair we had those rumors last series as well

I know I'm definitely in the minority when it comes to Amy. I genuinely found the character so annoying that I didn't want to watch Karen Gillan in anything else. I have changed that opinion though.

Her hotness really wasn't a factor for me. I know Karen/Amy is attractive but I'm not attracted to her

Chibbers has his 5 year/series plan to work with. I've obviously no idea if the new Jodie rumour is true but we've had this before and of course eventually the tabloids get it right. She would have done 3 series which is almost the unofficial stopping point now so it really wouldnt be a surprise. A different performer might carry the writing better then she has but the main issue has never been Jodie.

Oh and what I'd give for an annoying companion now. Or someone not a present day human.
