Pretty damning. @MelodicHarmony Well, yes, but I’m also saying that a whopping seven, yes SEVEN lol, were dire, badly written, messy, and should never have reached the screen. Pretty damning.

I do agree though that they need new ideas, maybe get a new head writer? Unfortunately that won't be for season 9 as Moffat is still clinging onto those reigns as if his life depends on it (his life may depend on it to let go of those reigns with all the angry Doctor Who fans screaming after him...) @David

I will always be a Doctor Who fan, but the spin being used to convince us this was a successful series is quite hilarious. Most of the episodes were pretty dire and I think the series was only saved by Listen, Time Heist, Flatline and the two finale episodes. Stop the spin Mr Moffat/BBC and give us decent episodes. Maybe look further afield for new writers/ideas? I'm sure they are out there. The usual “blurb” from the powers that be.

I take comfort from the fact that I was able to put my opinion directly to them.
