End of Time Part 2 is a gigantic improvement over Part 1, which has incredible "this is my first draft but oh God I'm so tired and everybody's expecting me to deliver it" energy.

Well he had a whole extra day to write it.

Going all the way back to series 1 of the revival, it's interesting with modern knowledge to look at their scorn that no-one can "own the internet".

Also that episode is set 8 years in the past :stare:

They could be just lying about B. Arrowman not coming back.

Something Neil Toynay, Leon Ny Taiy, and James Stoker would approve of.

I hadn't seen James Stoker before and I love it.

I fell off halfway through Matt Smith's final season, is it worth picking up from where I left off or should I just skip to a generally agreed to be good point?

Did you see the 50th anniversary special?

Grasping at a straw, but so much theorizing about Gallifreyans being evolved humans - it was strange that The Master said "heart" in the singular during his reveal. Maybe he's had a regeneration that made him more human biologically and it prompted him to investigate why.

He said "hearts" in part 2 though.

Moffat made a lot of missteps but I was very happy with the idea that the Time Lords were still alive out there somewhere but the Doctor wanted nothing to do with them, and while I'm sure there are all kinds of stories that could be told with or about them, I'd much rather they just.... left them alone for a long time.

That was my biggest problem with Hell Bent. The 50th anniversary and the Time of the Doctor set up the search for Gallifrey as a driving motivation for the Doctor. Nothing really happens on-screen and by his first meeting with Missy he hasn't found it. She claims she has but misleads him.

Then in Hell Bent we're back to a classic depiction of Gallifrey, skipping any of the developments in between.

I'm sorry that scary melty Ace cover looks like bukkake, but you can hardly blame any of the writers for that, eh?

Yeah from memory it's a pretty good book and nothing skeevy happens to Ace.

Eaters Of Light was a sad one, because it was written by the same person who wrote the last story of the old series, and I don't think it actually beat that story's ratings

It's also a pretty good episode and deserved a better response.
