I really liked this episode! I felt like the pastiche was pitch-perfect, and the reveal was excellent. I did have one detail I thought was interesting - wasn't the hand-wave thing mostly Simm? I'm going to assume from his adoption of that mannerism that this incarnation comes between Simm & Missy until we see otherwise. And I'm fairly certain that the glowy aliens are, in classic tradition, going to turn on the Master & he's going to have to team up with the Doctor to save himself.

I kind of think it'd be hilarious for Dhawan's Master maybe deciding to piggyback of his past-self-as-Mister Saxon's paradox machine in 2007 to try and change stuff, only to get stopped by the Doctor springing Missy from her cell in the same time period help stop him. Although perhaps rather convoluted. But they've not got a free excuse for him to show up in historical episodes set between 1943 and the present.

I really didn't like the random old guy kramering in to sacrifice himself in the Doctor's place. I kind of figured that The Doctor would somehow pour the Matrix into the Cybermasters' minds, blowing out their emotional control and basically immediately reconverting them back into Time Lords (granted in cyber-bodies, but they had the capacity to regenerate so they could be de-converted), and also revealing the truth of the Time Lords so they couldn't deny it any more. Heck, the Master had both the Matrix and the Cyberium as part of him at the same time. I mean, I did feel it was a bit fanwanky, but the actual reveal didn't seem much of a leap from the Cartmel Masterplan.
