I thought the episode was quite good. It wad funny when the Judoon was driving the police car.
I thought it was a very good season opener (better than series 2 opener). It was odd how they introduced the series back with no pre title sequence and just did a rehash of the clyde advert for series 2, only with new scenes added.
P.S:
I saw another rehashing of a story dr who did previously…body possession (from New Earth) and (I’m sorry if I sound sad for noticing this) but did anyone else notice the little’s girl mum was IN ‘New Earth’ as an extra who was touched by the sick patients.

I didn’t notice that, but there you go. And arguably the body possession in New Earth was designed to be primarily humorous, whereas here it was designed to be primarily scary. Still, you’re right, they do tend to just nick things off Doctor Who.
I thought it was good children’s telly. And my sister and I laughed whilst watching it. And from the SJA, I don’t really want anything else.
Quite good. Not my favourite opener, but arguably still a good way to open up the series. Strange cliffhanger in my opinion. Loved the Veil though, interesting (although not very original) concept. 7/10
