This story to me was good. The action and the way if plays out is great. There are surprises in the story to keep you guessing. The story line revolves around the Doctor which I love. That is what Doctor Who is about, the Doctor and not the companion. I like the first and second episode of Season 10 and I look forward to the rest of the season. I can see now I will hate to see Peter Capaldi leave after the Christmas Special.
