Perhaps we'll have a Kevin McNally and Robert Bathurst reunion from the 'Dad's Army' Lost Episodes 2019 remake. Tim BTW, I did enjoy the episode. I just have no idea what's going on! And I want to know if we'll see the Doctor in the last two episodes.
{Spoiler} Not as a Weeping Angel mind. I mean, back to her old self.

Tim No worries. I had to double-check on that in the trailer and on the website to be sure it was him. It would be nice if James Fleet appeared in the episode though. Tim

Another great episode no complaints he has made it watchable with assistant writer for 4 episodes I thought he only had co-writer on one episode, the one we just watched.

I think the Chibbers stuff is the connective tissue that links these events to the Flux plot.

Hmmm... mixed feelings about that episode.
It was the best use of the Angels since Time of Angels/Flesh & Stone (and was on a par with that story, quality-wise, but not quite up to Blink...) but then they forced the Division stuff into it and it went a bit flat for me. I wish it had just been a really strong standalone episode rather than tying it into the Division.
That being said, the cliffhanger was bloody impressive. Definitely up there with the most iconic ones...
Jericho is a great addition to the DW universe, a really intriguing character - I don't think the Chibnall era has been great at coming up with standout characters (recurring or one-offs) but he's definitely an exemption to that. I'm hoping (and I'm sure) we'll see him again.
Also the lack of an Amy/Rory reference is criminal.

I liked the Weeping Angels bits, they were very good and this is probably the best that the Weeping Angels have ever been. I wasn't too keen on the diversions to Bel/Vinder who for me are weak characters, but they obviously play a big part in the Flux story or they wouldn't be there. If this had just been a Weeping Angels episode Village of the Angels would get an easy 4/5 from me, but the other stuff brings this down to a 3/5 rating from me. Above average, but not great. Flux is definitely well written in parts but it's still very messy.
(I am keeping all of the Flux episodes on my Sky+ planner so that I can rewatch them all together in one go. I might revisit my poll votes then.)

For me it was stronger than 3/5 but it would have been a 5/5 had it not been tied into the overall arc and had been a standalone story.

Thought it was terrific. The Bel scenes didn’t feel as naturally integrated into the episode as they did last week, but a minor criticism in the grand scheme of things. Loved the use of the Angels and Jericho is a great new character, looking forward to seeing him for the remainder of Flux. The sequence in the TARDIS was a highlight. Oh and what a cliffhanger!
Very happy to see Kate Stewart back and trending on Twitter too!

I am quite annoyed at this episode.
As its the fourth in a row I dont have much to critique as I loved it.
Time really is fractured!

Loving it! Was anyone else positive that Mrs. Hayward was actually going to be revealed to be Hawthorne from The Daemons? Similar name, similar presence in a small village with weird happenings involving religious iconography. The actresses even look very similar! (This is the only time I've EVER done the whole "new character is secretly someone from the Classic era" thing, so I was sure I was right!)
