So Far Series 12 is amazing I can't wait for episode 3

Implied tentacle porn and 13 gets aroused/disguted by Grahman's choice of swimwear this week

Orphan 55 aka the climate change episode. It was good Graham is still the stand out Companion. Yaz did jack **** as usual and Ryan is just Ryan. Jodie was decent in this one.

Wasn't a big fan of this one. It ripped off a Classic Who serial wholesale with it's big twist, and that planeteer alert at the end wasn't needed.

I've noticed the audience score on RT has now dropped to 6%. Yikes.

Tonight's ep wasn't bad.. The lesson was a simple one about taking credit and that history ultimately can vindicate you. Tesla will ultimately die penniless, but the world comes to recognise his accomplishments .

Neither Tesla or Eddison were mind-wiped...guess the Doc still trusts lads more than ladies.

Liked also The Doctor's irritated reaction to the Skithra queen asking if she'd seen a dead planet. Appropriate given what happened two weeks ago.

Good performances, but didn't realise the potential of most of the cast (and the companions again suffer for this), and a lack of real menace or impact from the aliens due to the evacuated streets diminishing their menace

I honestly think it peaked early with Spyfall and everything's been kind of average since.

Fugitive of the Judoon will have a surprise bigger than the Master's return

Well, it would have if she hadn't flagged it up... Cue speculation and tying in of rumours flying about while series 12 was in production...

Professional critic websites are going into hyperbolic meltdown at the moment for tonight.

Spoiler:

It's not a parallel universe version dude, it's a pre-Hartnell Doctor from a previous cycle

This pre-hartnell doctor is better than Jodie's

[Roseangelo]

Welp, that was easily the best 13 episode yet.

Spoiler:

But Hartnell stole the TARDIS and then the Chameleon circuit broke, leaving it as a police box. So if this is meant to be a pre Hartnell Doctor, it's still a post Hartnell TARDIS. Unless that memory is wrong too.

That one's easy

Spoiler:

In Name of the Doctor, it's established the type 40 was in the repair shop on Gallifrey. Why there and not a museum? Because engineers were trying to fix the faulty circuit and had succeeded in reverting it back to it's original form, they were making progress when it got stolen all over again by The Doctor, now in his male cycle and had no memory of using it before. Clara's Gallifreyan splinter made sure to point Hartnell's Doctor towards the TARDIS with the faulty navigational device and the faulty chamelion circuit, otherwise he'd have taken another ship entirely.

Spoiler:

That's rather pushing it imo that it got stuck as a Police Box twice. And that the Doctor was back on Gallifrey at the time of regenerating into Hartnall. And that now the Doctor is back in a "female" cycle, she can recall all her previous male incarnations but not the female ones prior to that.

I'm waiting for the actual answer to be a lot more convoluted or simple in reality heh...

...Doctor Who is rarely simple even when it's trying to be

[ZariusTwo]

This week's episode was a preachy filler about plastics and an ill-timed story that runs parallel with the coronovirus in the real world. Better than Mambo 55 though.

Next week's trailer
