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...? |
Yeah, poor writing holding a 'message' can come across as an agenda. I can get that.
