The anti-capitalist thing was about as subtle as a brick.

So that means my Dr. Who mag is free from now on? Oh.

.Still-a nice double entendre--fighting the suits.
I guess te wheel was no rotating. Bill should have been looking up from the flor if te artificial gravity was from the spin. But we do seem to see some low level field manip' so...

Now only have O2 in suits make sense. Keep nitrogen for pressure and cooling--save oxygen only for biologics
Less fire risks.

I would house over Moon craters. Fill with nitrogen--then have astronauts wear very lightweight suits
 
I thought it was great, it's a strong season.
The space walk was done really well with Bill passing in and out of conciousness.
Being stuck in a malfunctioning suit would be terrifying, like others have said getting rid of Clara has really improved the show.
 
Well played BBC. On the left a shot from the trailers on the right the shot from the episode.

So does this mean he's going to stay blind until the pseudo-Regeneration scene in Episode 8?

Sorry, that's a spoiler.

Can this person please be banned.
 
Excellent episode, properly creepy - my daughter watches with my wife and I, and she was hiding under the covers at the same sorts of times I would when I was her age. :)

Also, on the notion of Clara callbacks, does anyone think that the playful "heeeeeello?" the Doctor says when they first arrive on the station to be very reminiscent of the way Clara said it?

At first I was feeling like we'd seen the whole 'creepy space station' thing done so many times, except this is with nicer cinematography, but performances by Bill and the Doctor and even the added dynamic of Nardole really worked for me. This is probably my least favorite episode of the new season, but it's definitely not a bad episode. I feel like this has been a trend this whole season of treading water with episodes we've seen before, but each time the episode works or shines by way of the Doctor and his companion, which is very much okay with me. Can't wait to see if they maintain the blindness or do away with it cheaply.
 
This episode has been rated Great, Isn't It.
The poll mean was 3.95, which gives it +0.15 compared to Series 9.
