RTD is back!

  • news broadcasts? check
  • spaceships crashing? check
  • big green rubbery aliens? check
  • the sonic being just completely absurd space magic? check
  • companions actually having real family members instead of cardboard cutouts? check
  • extreme cheesiness gives way to genuinely touching moments? check
  • deus ex machina ending that also has the Doctor hitting loads of switches and buttons? check

I don't know if it's just nostalgia for old NuWho, but it was really enjoyable after the so-so slog of Chibnall's seasons.

Here's hoping one of the three episodes is something in the vein of "Midnight", RTD's best single episode IMO.
