New Who 8.11 Dark Water
Cor, is it really season finale two-parter time already? This season has gone fast! And although there have been two episodes which I found weak (Kill the Moon and In the Forest of the Night), on the whole it has been pretty strong - above all for the key themes and motifs developed and explored from different angles from episode to episode.
This episode certainly felt like a logical culmination to the season as a whole, but it also served up plenty of surprises, as well as some interesting plot ideas and some ( proper emotional weight )
For all that the fact of Missy collecting dead people had been well established throughout the season, I must say I never quite expected Doctor Who to do a ( katabasis story )
On Missy herself, woo-hoo to the ( spoilery goodness )
( Smaller points )
Finally, obviously I knew the title of this episode from an early stage in the season, which is partly what has encouraged me to keep running ( Water-and-Breathing Watch )
OK, that's it - I am caught up, and am now off to bed. Looking forward to the final instalment tomorrow!
