REVIEW: Doctor Who – S10E05: ‘Oxygen’
4.3/5.0
A little down in quality from the last episode in some ways, but a little up many others, ‘Oxygen’ nonetheless still delivers a strong, enjoyable 45 minutes of Who.
One of the main factors that drags this episode down from it’s potential is the extended presence of Matt Lucas compared to previous episodes. His only contribution it to spoil the rapport between Twelve and Bill, kill the dramatic tension with is wooden, one note delivery, and generally serve as an unnecessary distraction and detraction from the plot.
REVIEW: Doctor Who – S10E02: ‘Smile’
3.4/5.0
Two episodes in, and Doctor Who is edging back towards feeling like Doctor Who again. This episode may have fallen short of its potential, but it’s a definite indicator that things are starting to get back on the right track.
