At least the story it happens in is equally sub-par. Just think of how badly it'd stand out of the rest of the story were amazing!David Pirtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00636601389899125100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5386390949828958591.post-33312816727067844242014-09-16T08:23:42.509-07:002014-09-16T08:23:42.509-07:00This was the first indication that the Matt Smith ...This was the first indication that the Matt Smith era was not to my tastes. Running a series like Doctor Who is no easy feat and yet Moffat is such a capable writer that I cannot believe he would unintentionally fudge a story so badly. What was the point? An over-elaborate and cynical teaser to disguise the return of his nostalgic Daleks? A winking nod at the utter impotence of the pepperpots waving their plungers over the years? The nigh-invulnerability of the Doctor as long as he is holding/ingesting some sort of quintessentially British item?<br /><br />It's gotten to where I actually welcome Gatiss, jingoism and all, because the old dear doesn't have an insincere bone in his body.alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18287658017103606748noreply@blogger.com
