***

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?

Sea Devils return in the next special

A good holiday special today. I am always a suckered for time loop episodes. And I enjoyed the darleks and the 2 folks the gang was trying to save. And the issues they had during each loop. Along with how they stop the darleks in the end. Can't wait to see when next special be and them the final one for jodi.

So, big rumour circulating from credible sources that Jodie will regenerate into David Tennant again.

Apparently he's only locked in for three anniversary specials in 2023 before handing over to a new Doctor believed to be Lydia West

Doctor Who has been named the second best programme ever created by the BBC, but it loses the number one spot to popular comedy Only Fools & Horses
