I was trying to remember who the whole glasses routine of the bank-proprietor reminded me of, and then I got it: Miss Foster from Partners in Crime.

I think Capaldi deserves some really great stories, at the moment he is being hobbled by mediocre stories. He has the potential to be fantastic. I like the way he wonders why Claras face has got colours on and does she need to reach a tall shelf. its great stuff, but the actual plot is a bit meh.

Yup Orwell, another thoroughly enjoyable episode. Fun, good supporting cast of interesting characters and plenty of twists and turns.

frankly I don't think this moved Capaldi's character on any further.- Malick

Now Ive woken up a tad I think this new Dr does have a flavour of old Drs that I was used to. Capaldi has the aroma of Hartnell about him. I think this last episode had that fragrance of the 60s about it

Well, I got around to seeing the whole thing. Thought it rather good, best this season to me. Nod

I still don't think they've cracked the kind of episode that would best utilize Cipaldis talents yet, but, with the current setup, if they do it could be very good.

There's certainly potential in the show these days.

This is from last year, but I was looking for a list of best doctor who episodes, as I was curious.

Although I suppose the Guardian list is more practical:

The voted for lists tend to be a bit skewed in the direction of the audiences awareness, I tend to think. Interesting to see those two Tom Baker episodes in there though. Not that it's surprising. They are really good, probably the best of his tenure, if not all of classic Doctor Who.

Mm, looking at the Guardian list- they have Sea Devils rated higher than City of Death!
Nice to see Happiness Patrol in there though,, an underrated story in my book- yes it has a giant Bertie Bassett sweet monster in it and i s more camp than a national scout jamboree but thats the joy of it, it all looks ridiculous on the surface and underneath its a deeply subversive piece about Thatcherism.

I think watching Silver Nemesis might have vaccinated me from enjoying McCoy era episodes.

Not that these don't look more interesting.

Clip from this weeks show-



The reference to living with otters after a big fight with River may be referring to the same thing as mentioned in Impossible Astronaut when 11 and River are comparing diaries and recall fondly meeting Jimmy, who was 'still building his dam'.

HEADMASTER: Ah.
DOCTOR: Good afternoon.
HEADMASTER: And you would be?
DOCTOR: The Doctor. And you?
HEADMASTER: I'm the Headmaster here. Doctor, eh? Well, you're a bit over-qualified for the position, but if you would like to leave your particulars and references.
DOCTOR: References?
HEADMASTER: You are here for the job of school caretaker?

- Remembrance of the Daleks, Coal Hill School, 7th Doctor.

Guess he finally took the job on then!

Yup that was a solid character episode. Nice balance between very funny in places and very emotional. Proper review later.
Not been a bad episode so far this series for me.

I agree. I'm going to watch the whole series again when it finishes to see if - now that I've grown used to the new Doctor - the first episodes will feel slightly awkward or not. I'm suspecting maybe not. I always liked Clara but I think she's truly shining now. I love you
