An excellent episode, narratively short but a fitting farewell to this incarnation of the Time Lord. Capaldi delivers another superb performance, especially with his closing monologue which brought a tear to my eye! David Bradley performs admirably as Doctor no.1 and dare I say it, is a better actor than Hartnell himself. Of course, its onto the future - it is a programme about time travel after all - and Jodie Whittaker makes her debut as the Doctor. I was hesitant of her casting at first - not through sexism but the worry that the BBC were being all panicky and PC - but her opening moments have alleviated some of my fears. Let's give her time. Goodbye Peter Capaldi... you were an excellent Doctor and I will miss you, but the show must go on, and the legend continues.
