Bugger the viewing figures. I wish they had that quality of story.
Army of Ghosts and most of
Doomsday were terrific episodes.
I won't even mention
The Stolen Earth (nor it's 8.78m viewers).
I do think the last couple of stories (plus
Spyfall) have been decent episodes, but when you come to watch them and then watch even an alleged lesser episode like
Boom Town or
The Long Game as two examples from series one, that you realise that the writing, especially the writing of the characters and their interaction simply isn't there, in fact nowhere near as good.
As a spectacle
Ascension of the Cybermen was enjoyable.
