Childlike MacGyver

So essentially Chibbers can pull something more or less watchable out of the bag, but only on special occasions.

"Resolution" by Chris Chibnall, directed by Wayne Yip. Spoilers after the cut.

The return of Toothy McToothface

Of course, "kolos" is Greek for "arse," so at least it's nice that Chibbers has come round to agreeing with me about his writing.

"The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos" by Chris Chibnall, directed by Jamie Childs. Spoilers after the cut.

String Theory

"This is so weird," I thought to myself several times, before we got to the CGI frog with the voice of Sharon D. Clarke waving the Doctor away.

"It Takes You Away" by Ed Hime, directed by Jamie Childs. Spoilers after the cut.

Kerblamazon

This week's episode of Doctor Who really made you sit back and think about people working in terrible jobs. Those poor actors, having to share a set with Bradley Walsh and Lee Mack at the same time!

"Kerblam!" by Pete McTighe, directed by Jennifer Perrott. Spoilers after the cut.

MacGyverising

I guess the real Demons of the Punjab were the friends we made along the way.

Sheffield Wide Web

I've seen a few places say what a clever pun on Anarchy in the UK the title "Arachnids in the UK" is, which is handy because if it hadn't been pointed out to me I'd never have realised it was clever, I'd have thought it was really reaching for a weak pun that didn't quite work. And let's face it, if there's one thing I know about, it's weak puns that don't quite work.

Thank you for smoking

Ah, yeah. This is... Kinda more what I was expecting from a Chris Chibnall episode.

"The Ghost Monument" by Chris Chibnall, directed by Mark Tonderai. Spoilers after the cut.

Lots of planets have a Hoodezfield

Well, so far I like Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor. But then, she was never the one I was worried about, was she?

"The Woman Who Fell to Earth" by Chris Chibnall, directed by Jamie Childs. Spoilers after the cut.
