i didn't think the episode was any worse than last week's to be honest. the creature was as embarrassment, although i liked the (not entirely original) idea it ate energy. again it was too-PC - don't mind PC, just don't make it so damn obvious!
the episode construction was a bit more of a classic-Who set-up i.e. isolate the cast in a remote setting with a mystery to solve, except there was no mystery and the story was naff - and again another story with no actual villain... wtf!!!
other posters are right, Chibnall doesn't look a good fit for DW. clearly his talents are for earthbound drama as this creeps into every episode.
DW needs a new Gothic period to get it out of the doldrums imo.
