Few days behind, surprised nobody is talking about this yet.
Slightly disappointed that Belinda comes in and nobody yells "DON'T CLOSE THE DOOR!"

I'm not talking about it because I didn't like it. Gods are canonical in Dr Who now? That felt so wrong to me.
Nice to see the Doctor have a community and someone to look after him even if he was "betrayed" by them. And a clear reference to the fact that he's black and a little glimpse into how it's affected him which I don't think we've really done before

There was a bit in Lux where he was explaining the realities of 1950s Florida to Belinda, but you're right, I wish we had more of that.
The Gods thing seems to be the big deal this season, this is the 4th mythological creature so far?

Fugitive doctor cameo 😍 I really hope that she will be the next Doctor. Also, I hope the alternate mavity timeline with Gods and magicks will end. This denatures the genuinity of the serie.

I wasn’t a fan of the Fugitive Doctor as a one off. Felt like a dumb plot point in the already weak Jodi stories that they were not prepared to do anything interesting with. (And I wasn’t a fan of rewriting the “lore” of the show.) it would be interesting to learn she is the “next” Doctor and meeting Jodi she wasn’t a fugitive yet. Although I’m not sure if that works with some of Jodi’s plot lines? It did seem to be her past not her future.
Although with timeline confusion and memory editing power anything is a go.

I don’t know why I didn’t care for this episode. Just watched it last night (had been traveling so I missed it premiere day). Something about the stakes just didn’t appeal to me.
Also the camera work was really strange in this episode.
