Don't know about anyone else, but Simm saying "I will never stand with the Doctor" gives me chills! I have so missed a 'real' Master!!! (Sorry, Missy just doesn't do it for me )

I'm fine with that - it's Capaldi's last series episode, I'm happy for him to be the focus rather than the guests.

I'm bracing myself for the moaning that will accompany any resurrection of Bill - 'Moffat's reset button,' and all that - just as I am for the complaining that Bill's fate is 'too dark' for younger viewers if she is indeed Cybernised. Whatever occurs, I'm more excited for the series finale than I have been for a long time.

I'm not sure I like the sound of that, but I haven't seen it and I do tend to prefer my own opinions over those of other people. (Funny that). Ergh... more seriously, I really do hope I don't agree with him. I've gotten altogether too fed up with two-parters that have a great start and a lame finish. It didn't used to happen like that, even under Moffat. I loved the S5 angels two-parter, and really quite liked the S6 two-parter w/ the programmable matter.

It'll be an interestng season finale, but it's also a Steven Moffat episode of Doctor Who... so whatever happens some people are going to be on their soapbox moaning about something anyway. It's as inevitable as the sun rising in the morning and setting in the evening.

The moaning from Moffat supporters who automatically defend the guy's writing before his episode has even aired is also, sadly, inevitable. If it's garbage, it's garbage. The fans should be welcome to criticize it.

At least on this forum, most of the posters are civilised and respectful enough to allow for all opinions to be aired. Words like 'apologists' and phrases like 'you're easily pleased' can stay on ... that other forums!

We're talking a hugely successful writer - both critically and commercially - who's been near the top of British TV for a long, long while. Doesn't mean anyone has to like one thing he's written but he certainly has nothing for which to apologise. I'll miss him when he's gone as a writer and perhaps his most difficult role - as a figurehead and strategist for the show. And he could have easily left when he planned to and we may not even be getting this year with Capaldi. He's got a LOT of goodwill in the bank with me.

Someone had watched the episode and quite enjoyed it, but felt he owed it to his fellow fans to rewatch it repeatedly until he felt he found reasons to dislike it. Very strange. On a different tangent, I used to work with someone who wasn't a fan. Fair enough, of course. But if ever I mentioned Doctor Who, he would say to me, "Of course, it's not real, you know." I mean - as if it's not real!!

We're not perfect around here, but I do appreciate that we're pretty good about understanding and articulating the distinction between "I didn't like that" and "That was bad".

Not really, just an observation that come Saturday night there will be moaning about the episode with predictable complaints. (I sometimes get the feeling that some people don't watch an episode of Doctor Who to be entertained these days. It's more about what's wrong with the episode.) But we are a good bunch here, and very patient... on other Doctor Who forums people get their complaints in early before the episode has been broadcast!
