Decent episode, not amazing but certainly not bad. As you say having 2 Doctor lite episodes back to back is a weird choice, hopefully we’ll see more of him in the last few episodes.

And hey, the outside scenes were filmed at my old university campus, too bad I wasn’t there when they were filming

Haven’t seen Boom yet but maybe that’s because the season isn’t hitting for me.

I enjoyed the 60th and the Christmas specials, but the first 2 episodes of this season were just fine. They weren’t terrible like the Chibnal era but they also weren’t as good as RTD’s first era.

I’ve not had much to do this weekend so it’s not like I couldn’t watch the episode, in fact I felt like watching Doctor Who earlier and I instead watched some S1 even though Boom is still to be watched.

I really hope the season gets better as the show has so much potential for more great stories, they just need to be made by the right people

Yes? The episode will premiere on iPlayer at midnight for the UK. At which point it will be ~7pm in America. It will then air on BBC One hours later, presumably at the usual UK time slot.

So if I want to watch it as it goes live I’ll have to stay up till midnight and for the duration of the episode. Whereas in America, it’ll be a normal time for them.

And yes I can wait till later in the day to watch the episode but then I’ll be missing that feeling of watching it with everyone else and not to mention it’ll have to be the first thing I do for the day if I want to avoid spoilers

So, in the UK which is the shows primary audience and we fund the show by paying the license fee get to watch it on iPlayer at midnight.

Then the American’s get the nice 7pm time slot? Thanks Disney

Yes, that’s why RGB is recommended so much

Did they ban turtle because of the protests or another reason?
