Dr Babes is back and crying once again.
There was so little merry about this that I consider how they can even call it a Christmas special, surely that is some form of false advertising.
If you didn’t like the new Doctor’s first series you won’t like this it is much more of the same, him dancing, him saying babes, him being sassy and then being strong by crying. Who needs brains and a sonic screwdriver when you have interpretive dance and crying.
Him being joined by one of the stars of Bridgerton just feels like the BBC once again desperately trying to get in a youth audience that has never even heard of Doctor Who, she was entirely forgettable. Turning her into the Star Of Bethlehem from the Bible was an unexpected twist that manages to spoil a centuries old story, all to prop up the BBC’s failing IP.
Having a future version of the Doctor show up just feels like more messing with the cannon for the sake of trying to get a cheap thrill, it shows a lack of respect towards the series and towards those that enjoy it. However, I would expect nothing more from the current day BBC.
Overall, more garbage paid for by an archaic and unjust tax.
0.5/5
Pros.
It makes for a good thing to laugh at
Cons.
The guest star can’t act
The star twist is stupid and doesn’t fit
The future Doctor idea is lazy and disrespectful
It is cringe
It is too long
