PICK ONE

10th. Flatline (5 votes | 33.33%)



Flatline was a very experimental episode but it was all the better for it, bringing us some of the most memorable monsters of the 12th Doctor era! They were the Boneless, two-dimensional creatures who were trying to become 3D. The episode had to be Doctor-lite but the writer used this to his advantage by shrinking the TARDIS with the Doctor inside, allowing for Peter Capaldi to film most of his scenes inside the ship. This meant that more scenes could be filmed and his presence was still there throughout the episode. It allowed for Clara to step in the forefront and become the Doctor, a theme that would snowball up until her departure in Series 9. Coincidentally, the episode also gave us Rigsby who would return for Clara's 'final' episode. It's an episode that only Doctor Who can do and it's great that the show can still explore this new, experimental ideas after more than 50 years.

The Magician's Apprentice / The Witch's Familiar for me again but it is very tough and I really enjoyed 'The Witch's Familiar'!!

I'm surprised that the final 3 episodes of Series 9 are all still there and that 'Listen' is still managing to cling on. tongue.gif

AT LAST, 'Flatline' is GONE. By no means a BAD episode, just nowhere near a stand-out and I am always disappointed by episodes where the threat is completely dispelled with a push of a button.

MUMMY next pls.

Hell Bent, was a very weak conclusion to a strong series, especially given the two episodes before it.

Deep Breath was FAR better than Listen for me.

I voted for Listen but that's because I forgot that Hell Bent was still in.
