TL;DR – Today, Doctor Who took a turn into an unsettling one, and I was not quite ready for them to commit as much as they did.

Disclosure – I paid for the Disney+ service that viewed this series.

Warning – contains scenes that may cause distress.

Doctor Who Review –

When I was first introduced to Doctor Who, I was inundated with several episodes that were meant to unsettle you. Where a child in a mask could be more terrifying than the London Blitz, and where there was a ‘Silence in the Library’ incident that still lives in infamy in my family’s lore. However, it has been a long time since Doctor Who had me sitting on the edge of my chair, but they got that tonight.    

So, to set the scene, after The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and Miss Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) tried to hook an anchor into May 2025 in last week’s Lux, they have still struggled to get it to land where they want it to be. But while The Doctor is busy promising that he will get Belinda home, the TARDIS makes a landing 500,000 years in the future. They just need to get another Vindicator reading, only to find themselves immediately jumping out of a spaceship. Now, from here, we will be looking at the episode as a whole, so there will be some [SPOILERS] ahead.
