Doctor Who: Season 11

11x09 It Takes You Away

The first 75% of this episode played like a supernatural mystery and I had some guesses what was going on. My guesses were competely wrong. I don't mind being wrong. I did mind that the mystery turned out to be some piece of lore we had never heard of before. It's like the deus ex machina of mysteries...

The last part tried to be interesting through an emotional plot featuring carbon copies of characters that were dead. While it was interesting to see Grace again, the central dilemma fell flat, as the threat of reality collapsing turned the whole idea of staying in the alternate reality in a moot option.

The end featured some very silly Sci-fantasy and an empty promise of eternal friendship from the doctor that saved the day.

Yeah, this episode is not why I watch Doctor Who...
