My review of Doctor Who: Series 8, episode one.

...I don't think I've done a New Who episode review since Series 1, episode five (?) So Team Moffat and Capaldi must have done something right to get me my fannish energy back. Good job, them.

In pro-fun troll tradition, I shall praise what I enjoyed before criticizing what I didn't (in reverse squee order, rather than chronological)

1. Capaldi -- all of him. But specifically, his sense of timing and rhythm. And the way he inhabited his body as he shifted, gradually, into his new character.

   In conclusion, the final score:
   
   Squeeful things = 7
   Annoying things = 5
   
   Importance of Squeeful things: High
   Importance of Annoying things: Low
