i don't have a problem with a woke agenda as such. DW has always been a bit woke - exhibit 1 The Green Death. my problem is that it has totally taken over the show and has the subtlety of steam roller in an incubator unit. the writers are just so poor they can only make their point with speeches - exhibit 2 Praxeus, my son said this virtually verbatim to a lesson he'd had at school the previous week! you don't turn people on to your cause by whacking them over the head with a lecture. you do it by planting thoughts and doubts in their heads with thoughtful ideas and observations.

anyway i'd fallen behind with this season but have caught up recently. here's the verdict.

Fugitive of the Judoon - not bad
Praxeus - really really awful
Can You Hear Me? - i didn't think it could get any worse but it did...
The Haunting of Villa Diodati - a really pleasant surprise, it was great

Haunting was apparently written by the lady who writes Emmerdale. Who'd have thought...?
