What an episode. A genuine high-chills belter. Helps Chibnall had a co-writer this week.

Spoiler:
I figured Clare would end up being the Angel that took the TARDIS. We learn she is a regular clairvoyant who lived in the present day and the Angel possessed her, then she was hunted down and taken to the 60s by the hunting party, I totally didn't see (let alone blink) the cliffhanger coming With everyone losing, and The Doctor 'recalled' to the Division becoming a weeping angel herself

We definitely could have done without the Bel and Vinder stuff.

Oh, and next week Kate Stewart is back

I see old Chinball went back to the timeless child garbage. RTD can't come fast enough.

I got Stargate vibes off of The Grand Serpent, but I also would not mind if he turns out to be another incarnation of The Master, seeing as he has control of serpent morphant critters like in the TV Movie.

Well that was pretty anti-climatic.

Doctor gets her hands on the fob watch, but decides not to get her memories back and hides the watch somewhere in the TARDIS, telling the old girl to make sure she never finds it.

'Shippers get Thirteen hugging Yaz and getting all emotional/remorseful about keeping her in the dark, it looks like they're going to kiss at one point but Yaz really doesn't seem all that into it.

Dan's girlfriend decides to dump Dan even though it wasn't his fault he missed their first date (and they had just saved the universe...what the hell hero?)

The Doctor uses the Passengers to absorb the flux.

A manifestation on Planet Time deals with the Swarm and tells The Doctor that her time is ending (like in the 2009 easter special) and hints at the return of The Master.

And overnight UK ratings for the Flux finale are in. 3.58. Beaten soundly by the lads at Top Gear, the Strictly results show, and Countryfile

I don't feel like checking out any video evidence, for obvious reasons, but can poop actually spin as it comes out?

RTD on Doctor Who: “I’ve already written some of the episodes. The first will go out in November 2023 – that’s the 60th anniversary of the show.”

On the new Doctor: “We’re just starting auditions.”

The 'dying TARDIS' angle was resolved, and we learn the Daleks blamed The Doctor for the flux smashing through a lot of their armada.

The initial time loops were interesting and Dan proved quite helpful, and did a lot to advance the Doctor and Yaz's story, telling Yaz to own up to not just The Doctor, but herself on how she feels. I don't think we've seen a companion 'struggle' with sexuality issues before, other times we've had companions who were pretty confident in their own skin like Bill Potts and Captain Jack.

The Daleks were creative in their strategies to outfox The Doctor and got the upper hand several times. After a while though, the loops got difficult to keep track of and I barely paid attention to the resolution. Something somehow causes fireworks to go off and the Daleks just suddenly stop sending more executors after The Doctor?

A surprise cameo also towards the end with Karl ("I am important") from Jodie's first episode watching the light show at the end. Wonder if he's being set up to end Thirteen's life somehow?

The Sea Devils are back in the next special

Big rumour that David Tennant will be returning for the 60th anniversary specials, however it is said he will be playing a brand new incarnation of The Doctor rather than reprising the role of the tenth.

https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entert...octor-26021748

Catherine Tate is also rumoured to return, but will be playing a different character and not Donna Noble

Tennant would be the 14th, not the 10th. It’s not a reset, it’s a new story and a first for the anniversary and then moving forward for series 14 after. It would go Jodie - David - New Doctor. No one is erasing the Chibnall era.

Henry Linchon, co-writer of The Abominable Snowmen, The Web of Fear, and The Dominators, has died.

With his passing, all the writers of the original series from the 1960s are gone.
