Doctor Who 33.8

Emilia Jones. A fairly light and, to be honest, boring story that takes ages to get going. And, in the end, amounts to nothing. The Doctor isn’t onscreen for much of the first act, which doesn’t help. Clara is certainly a fascinating new character, but this feels like the show is all about her. But that’s not my problem with this episode. I just though the story was weak. Great visuals, yes, and Matt Smith was amazing. But the leaisurely pace and lack of story let it down. First weak episode since “Vincent and the Doctor.” 5/10
