It was a nice change of pace to have the Doctor being the principle one in danger, it really gave Ncuti a chance to show his range and he did not disappoint. Such a captivating performance.
This episode was phenomenal! Best of the RTD 2 era in my opinion. I forgot that when Stephen Moffat isn’t writing his own long-form story, which he’s kind of bad at, when he’s just writing episodic one-offs, he’s a fantastic writer. This is some of the most Doctor Who-esque dialogue we’ve ever had. It was filled with so much tension. My shoulders still hurt. And it was filled with all of Moffat’s classics: religious soldiers, evil robots, faltering tech. And it finally felt like Ruby had a defining moment as a companion in defying the Doctor by handing him the casket and not tossing it. I also loved the inclusion of the “Skye Boat Song.” Does anyone know what the Doctor was saying about the dead president and his wife? Was he quoting something or is that another clue to this season’s mystery box?

He absolutely sells the idea that It’s the same consciousness at It’s core, just a different person body/mind expressing it.
An absolute joy of an episode. Also loving all these backstage and behind the scenes videos.

"The show sucks because the Doctor's black and it's all Woke now" The ACTUAL reason is that, while the show HAS been political previously, the jabs were more 'broad', like "Haha politicians are skinwalker aliens" and "Reality TV Bad" levels of 'critique'. The people complaining are seething because now it's THEIR ideologies and sentiments directly in the line of fire, and they can't handle the criticism.

Moffat's work got me into this show, and in turn gave me everything I got out of it. It was the thing that helped me gain an appreciation for sci fi the art of scoring a scene, acting, and embracing geekdom. He was behind the seasons of television that comforted me at my darkest hour. Now he's gotten me to revisit this show and reflect on who I've been. Fir that, he'll always be one of my favorite writers. "The universe often fails to be a fairytale, but that's where we come in."

Sometimes he wrote bad episodes but most of his episodes are good. Even from when he was a showrunner.
This was mostly a bottle episode, but with really good drama. We don't know if an explosion would truly kill the Doctor permanently or he would just regenerate, so it's conveyed that he if blows up it it's going to be big. I would have liked a line that ruled out using the sonic "screwdriver" (I think it's more like a sonic remote at this point). Other than that, a strong outing!
Good episode! I missed Doctor Who being all hit and miss all the time, but this series is back in form. I really don't mind if some of them are not very good as long as we get episodes like this too.
I also liked that the mine also disabled the Doctor"s ability to regenerate, since it was at a quantum level ! Giving it more stake in universe too
