Plots(1)
The Doctor (Peter Capaldi, in his final series) has taken an oath to guard the contents of a mysterious vault when he meets eager-to-learn Bill Potts (Pearl Mackie). The Time Lord is desperate to show his new friend the wonders of the universe and it falls to loveable android Nardole (Matt Lucas) to remind him of his duty. From emoji-speaking robots to a monster beneath the Thames, Bill’s universe is about to get a whole lot bigger. (2 Entertain Video)

The Pilot (10x01) 2/5: He's good. She's good. There is no plot. I am not saying it´s not good, it is simply missing. I understand that they wanted to devote enough space to the new companion and approach it from her point of view, but to write "a puddle that is not a puddle" and to end it like this, it is simply not enough. Smile (10x02) 3/5: It's very... Lovable. An idea and a start comparable to Silence in the Library, emoji noJamie Vardis sent shivers down your spine, the Valencian design of the colony is magnificent, but the creators were not successful in terms of making a functional whole out of these elements. In addition, the plot, story line, point and the way everything ended up is an unworthy copy of The Empty Child / The Doctor Dances. Thin Ice (10x03) 3/5: "Delayed anger fades away, it melts like brittle ice." One of those potentially not only mediocre episodes that would use a striking half-hour, but in terms of the whole footage and does´t go smoothly and there are sometimes blind spots. The only thing that keeps it afloat, I mean, above the ice are the one liners when Doctor and Bill are becoming closer. If it weren't for one really impressive speech, it would be an episode you will hardly remember, at least until the start of credentials. Knock Knock (10x04) 4/5: "Freaky Scooby Doo house." In terms of structure, this episode explicitly calls for being the first episode where Bill meets Doctor. It would definitely be more stylish than only above a malicious puddle. In any case, a really good use of genre clichés, especially in the first part. On top of that, magnificent silent competing Suchet and Capaldi. The only drawback is a mediocre, doctoral style impression and an unused "returned knock on wood". Oxygen (10x05) 4/5: The invisible hand of the market is capitalistically driven by the vacuum through autonomous robotic space suits with corpses in them. Well, just go for it. Each season must have its episode on a space station with the rest of the crew in life-threatening situation. Most of these "profile" episodes are successful. However, few of them are great, if you strip away politically motivated content of course. Extremis (10x06) 4/5: An excellent premise, a magnificent balance of chillingly disturbing moments (and it's not just about those zombie monks) and funny moments (pope in the bedroom!). From Nardole, it is improving episode by episode and it´s becoming much more than just "second-rate comedy sidekick", high stakes, tangible tension and perfect gradation. And then comes the final contradictory twist, which makes me confused, whether it's a cheap shot or an infinitely sophisticated play with a narrative cliché. The Pyramid at the End of the World (10x07) 3/5: Love is consent. The start and finish of the episode were successful, but what is in between is only mediocre. Sadly.

Moffat says goodbye and wants to say goodbye in a big way. Once again, he takes all the iconic villains under his wings and stands up for the Daleks, Cybermen, or Missy, closing a lot of circles. He doesn't want to leave anything open behind, and maybe that's why he doesn't have time to fully develop a longer storyline around two companions this year, rather letting them be sweet sidekicks. With Bill, this works after the narrative and story line mainly in the beginning and at the end, Nardole has become a reliable relief in every situation. And the Doctor himself is in Capaldi's slightly exhausted, but all the more determined performance a perfect example, and if David Tennant weren't at the top of his acting game, Peter would be my undisputed favorite traveler. In my own viewing experience, I find it difficult to be critical of details or the whole, whether it's addressing the vault, the Monks, or the epic final adventure on the giant ship, I don't see any mistakes and am just amazed at where the Tardis can still go. And I still can't quite grasp that we will see big changes in the eleventh season. The legendary I don't want to go hasn't been this relevant in a long time, and its gentle use in the finale hardly prepares me for what must come. what must come.
