CK2 Oct 2022 10:16pm, 28 Oct 2022 1,493 posts	0 CK2 Me too. Just watched it tonight and agree with a lot of comments about the somewhat frenetic pace, especially in the introduction where I was totally lost, and good use of old doctors. I loved the Three Doctors special a few years back. The highlight for me was The Master. Sacha Dharwan was magnificent and I hope we haven’t lost him. Jodie Whittaker always makes me feel sad and her regeneration was particularly poignant ‘I want to see what happens next.’

roberton Nov 2022 6:25pm, 7 Nov 2022 1,350 posts	0 roberton I got round to watching The Power if the Doctor a few days ago. It says a lot that I’ve only just watched it Agree with most of the comments here; CK2’s for example. Good: Dharwan as the master was absolutely delicious. Bad: a rapid series of things happening one after the other isn’t really a story. It is definitely isn’t a plot. Good: the call-outs, the old faces, the celebration of the history was exactly what I want from an anniversary special. Lots of nostalgia in seeing Ace especially! Bad: random Dalek appearance. Unkind: when Bradley Walsh’s Graham appeared, it was a reminder that we didn’t always have companions played by people who can actually act 😝 Snide: the weather didn’t change with every shot, unlike in the previous Sea Monsters episode 😂 Summary: quite liked it, but very much in the “enjoyable nonsense” sort of way. Or a third Greatest Hits album.

A bit less of the flashing, running around, whistles & bangs than has been the usual fare recently. Well, still there but with a bit of space for the emotional side, which makes a difference. Wish the soundtrack was better, though. All the bangs are perfectly clear, but the dialogue? I needed the subtitles for most of it...
