I dig the new look. And I love that the Tardis redecorated herself. I am finding that I can't remember how 12 got back to the Tardis on the 400 mile long ship even though I just watched that, like, last week.

Costume-wise - I really want the Doctor's ear cuff thingy. Pretty!

Oh my, her face when she hears and then sees the TARDIS. Worth every moment.

Truth.

Yes! One big change NuWho made that I really like is treating the TARDIS as its own character rather than just a vehicle or tool, however amazing.

Not a change! In the very third adventure ever, The Edge of Destruction (set entirely within the TARDIS), the resolution hinges on the realisation that the TARDIS is alive and trying to warn them that there's something wrong.

I havent watched New Who yet. Need to figure out how to catch up.

I am looking forward to Legends of tomorrow they are adding magic to the mix and it looks even more over the top.

I really quite liked The Ghost Monument. There were flaws:

• The plot was very straightforward. Pretty much no twists at all. I don't really feel it detracted from the ep, but it didn't add much either.
• Hopefully Yaz will get more to do in subsequent eps.
• Wasn't a fan of the Doctor giving up at the end when the Tardis wasn't right there.

But!

• It looked fantastic. (Filmed in South Africa, apparently.) The action set pieces held up pretty well too.
• I have to take back one of my comments from last week, when I said dialogue was not going to be a strength. It's not as funny or clever as under Moffat, but it is showing some real empathy and groundedness.
• I like what Jodie Whittaker is doing with the character. There's a bit more depth to her interactions with the others, like she's connecting with them as people rather than just characters.
• Not sure how I feel about the Stenza being made into a season-sized threat. The main thing I liked about Tim Shaw in the opener is just how rubbish he was. He's cheating at a leadership exam that asks whether a fully armed and armoured soldier can overpower a single unprotected civilian. The Daleks they are not!
• Viewing figures were strong. It pulled in a third of the UK viewing audience, and that'll presumably increase once they include everyone on delayed watch. There was a drop from the first ep (as there usually is), but not by that much. Good start.

I'm not too into the Stenza. I did like the smothery bits of mobile fabric. I read somewhere that those are called The Remnant and was racking my brain for why that's familiar - it's Skullduggery Pleasant, I think. Not that it's necessarily a reference, just a good name.

Evil billowy scarves that talk back to you and wiped out a whole planet; it's as if the Stenza had Isadora Duncan and Tony Stark collaborate on weapons development.

I would watch that collaboration.

Utter fabulosity.

Okay, I did watch last night's Arrow, and...I just don't know. The flashforwards aren't interesting to me because William isn't interesting to me (though I like Roy).

I do enjoy seeing Vinnie Jones, though, so there's that.

Agree. I get that Chibnall is really into the "everything is NEW!" thing, but there's a reason those classic enemies keep coming back.
