I had stopped watching Doctor who sometime in 2019 around the time of Peter Capaldi and Bill. Something about that guy playing the doctor I didn't like but when he had Clara, she softened his harsh, but Bill just didn't do it for me, and I quit watching.

When I heard David Tennant and Catherine Tate were coming back, I had to watch, and it was like no time had passed. I watched the final Jodie Whittaker episode, and she wasn't bad, I had just lost interest before she came on so no offense to her. Then the "Star Beast" special and I was hooked. I've missed the dynamic between these two as that it always felt the most familiar.

The story is a good one, the TARDIS has landed on a spaceship at the edge of the universe where there aren't even any stars. There doesn't appear to be anyone else on board and the Doctor and Donna must figure out how to get off the ship since the TARDIS took off due to sensing imminent danger. Things get interesting though when they do finally run into other beings.

If you liked doctor who during the David Tennant years and especially during the Donna and Doctor years, then you'll love this episode. If you didn't care much for the Donna Character, watch theses specials anyway as that the writing is much better than what sent me off the tracks in 2019.

Very dark atmosphere, extremely cool concept. I had a wonderful time with this episode, editing was a bit messy here and there which brought me back.

It's incredible how authentically Who this episode is. Deeply scary at times, maybe a little goofy or jank but always entertaining. This episode had to do a LOT and it would never have been perfect. This at least dares to be creative and wasn't too careful and I love it for that

This is a legit scary episode, especially the first act. You can really feel the dread, the emptiness. It's a concept in science that is very scary to think about and worked so SO well here.

THIS is what I love from Doctor Who. I loved the horror aspect of this episode. It was just so well done. It's so much better than the first episode and I'm just so glad. After the first episode I was satisfied but still nervous for the show's future, but now I am just so relieved. Everything about this episode is just so brilliant, especially the performances from David Tennant and Catherine Tate. I think them being the only people in the episode (excluding the first and last scenes) was brilliant. The isolation and mystery is just so amazing and the buildup to the ending is perfect. Can't wait for episode 3.

I'm thrilled to say that the Doctor is back! This episode was everything I could have hoped for in a Doctor Who episode. The plot was engaging, and the special effects were almost top-notch compared to The Flux. I would highly recommend this episode to any fan of the show.

However, I would like to address one issue that I had with the episode. The portrayal of Sir Isaac Newton as a Black man was a bit jarring for me. While I appreciate the show's efforts to promote diversity and inclusivity, I don't think it was necessary to change the skin color of a historical figure. It felt like a forced attempt to be politically correct.

In conclusion, I give this episode 9 stars out of 10. Despite my reservations about the portrayal of Sir Isaac Newton, I thoroughly enjoyed the episode and look forward to more like it in the future.

To start this off, I didn't have high hopes for this special. While I'd originally been ecstatic to hear that Russel T Davies was returning, along with both David Tennant and Catherine Tate reprising their roles, the first special "The Star Beast" didn't click well with me. The story was rough, its characters even rougher. And while it was pushing for a genuinely positive message at heart, it sadly came at the cost of drastically hurting the show's characters and plot (A feat that made my interest in the show wane heavily during the time Chibnall was in the director's chair).

It was disheartening to say the least, and quite bittersweet to see just how quickly people online tore into it right after its release. I simply just wanted to see that "spark" of Doctor Who I'd grown to love again, but that special didn't have it.

"Wild Blue Yonder" however, did have it (to a degree at least). While this special still has its fair share of flaws, it felt far more like the show I fell in love with than the previous special (and the Doctor Who seasons before it) ever did.

The plot is alright (albeit quite a bit creepier than I'd imagined), if not fairly good for "Doctor Who". The characters were written fairly well, and they're portrayed absolutely wonderfully by the cast. The heavy usage of CGI took a bit to get used to, but it thankfully didn't subtract much from my experience.

It still has areas I didn't like, and a few stylized choices that made me scratch my head in confusion. But those moments were few and far in-between, making the experience far more enjoyable than the previous special. It was creepy, freaky, interesting, creative, heartfelt at times, and most certainly Doctor Who.

Overall, while that original Doctor Who "spark" I'd been hoping for is far dimmer than I'd been wishing for, it's still very much present in this special. And for me, that's all I can really ask for. I'm just glad I was able to find some enjoyment from this one.

An apple falls and it begins with cries of old odd bodkins, then off to space they go to face dead ringers who could be twins, far away before creation, waiting for increased inflation, a solitary spacecraft with a rusty robot counting. The Tardis takes a chance to relocate and work things out, as the Doctor and companion get confused and there is doubt, who is who you just don't know, as appendages just grow, if they could lift them off the ground, they'd surely give a great big clout. Lots of running and confusion soon results in threads untangled, and the puzzle is resolved after looking at several angles, but the foes have a great mind-set, which creates somewhat of a threat, then a clue's discovered in a place where it's been left to dangle.

First episode was just a mess. Bad story, too much forced "diversity", annoying "epic" music all the freaking time, lame "bad guy" but Donna and our favourite Doctor are back. Maybe 3/10.

I've had some hope that this episode would be a bit (a lot) better. Oh boy, was it better! This episode could be placed in series 4, easily. The story was great, action and CGI were top, amazing chemistry between the Doctor and Donna, that "old" feeling is back. Loved it!

I just hope that this episode is the way they'll go with the next season of Doctor Who, and not the first one. Good writing, interesting stories, less preaching and you are good to go.

Please, don't mess it up!

Well then, where to start... RTD wasn't lying when he said this episode was weird - but what a brilliant premise it was! Fun, creepy and absolutely bonkers, Catherine Tate and David Tennant get showcase their truly versatile acting ability. Throw in a few extra knee-caps and some jaw-dropping moments and it is definitely an interesting sight to behold.

Yes, there was some dodgy CGI, and yes, body horror isn't everybody's cup of tea. But even the harshest critics have to admit that this episode was a breath of fresh air. It had some seriously creepy moments akin to 'Midnight', and the rest of the time I was howling with laughter. The final scene was especially emotional. RIP Bernard Cribbins.

Bring on next week, Doctor Who is so back.

It has everything that a doctor who episode should have. The best in years. One of the best of all time.

It reminds me the old classic Doctor who. Just a nice well written story and good actors to support it. No plot holes, everything is explained, full of action and suspense.

The first episode was a bit lacking, but this episode came to fix that. If you enjoyed the 'Midnight' episode from the fourth season, then you'll love this one too.

This is the first time in years that I can't wait for the next episode and the season to begin.

I hope it continues just as well in the upcoming episodes!

Yet another solid episode for the 60th anniversary

CGI was a bit wonky in some places during the episode but that's to be expected really. The overall episode was brilliant and the concept of was delivered amazingly. The villains again were a hit and very unnerving. The Doctor and Donna's chemistry never fails to be on top form and seeing Bernard Cribbins at the end wrapped the episode up nicely with a bit of a hint at the next episode with everyone fighting and the airplane crashing

Massive shame there's only 1 more episode to go with David, would love to have him around for 1 more series but looking forward to Ncuti!

"Wild Blue Yonder," is arguably Davies' most ambitious and bizarre episode written for Doctor Who, and that ambition has more than paid off.

The promotional material made several claims from the writers, actors and even the directors, that this was a strange and unusual story, even by Doctor Who's standards, and the content certainly lived up to these lofty claims.

The episode takes place at the edge of the universe, where the Doctor and Donna arrive on a spaceship that is peering into the precipice of the known universe, essentially situated against the abyss.

The events that transpire in the episode are best kept under wraps, as they are a truly bizarre spin on concepts including, but not limited to existential dread, surrealism, the uncanny, and even Lovecraftian horror, as it examines the limits of comprehension on a whole.

Whilst many are comparing this episode to Midnight, which is totally justified considering its uncanny nature, and exploration of fear of the unknown, I found myself comparing it more so to Heaven Sent than anything else.

We're entering more spoiler orientated territory here, so be warned, but I'll keep this brief.

The episode itself features only the Doctor and Donna throughout, giving the story the space to explore their psyches accordingly, especially the darker aspects of the Doctor's psyche specifically.

"Wild Blue Yonder," draws on story beats we've seen in the Chibnall era, story beats cataclysmic enough to warrant this revival in the first place such as the Timeless Children. However, these are story beats that appear to be a promising source of genuine character drama and an examination of the Doctor's insecurities and loneliness, when given to a writer who understands what makes humans tick like Davies does.

"The Star Beast," was a compelling enough start to these anniversary specials, and a heartfelt little story which returned a sense of warmth and soul to the show that had been missing for years. It was a story that stumbled, and slipped, but still had something to say, and justify its existence with.

"Wild Blue Yonder," on the other hand, is a promise, a promise that Doctor Who still contains that revolutionary spark, that desire and itch to push boundaries, and Davies executes this desire pretty much perfectly.

I've seen questions online from fans, asking why these anniversary specials aren't celebrating the show like the 50th did, but to me, what we've seen here from "Wild Blue Yonder," is that these specials aren't meant to be celebrating what Doctor Who has already done, but are instead flexing what it is still capable of.

Fresh after battling a giant Furby, The Doctor and Donna are back!

I was a little concerned about this after being somewhat miffed by the generally poor Star Beast, but Wild Blue Yonder signals something of a turnaround.

I don't think it was perfect, and I am perplexed by some of the reviews giving this 9's and 10's, it's not Midnight, despite wanting to be.

Davies has gone back to basics, his intention was clearly to scare the pants off us, he's largely succeeded, there were some very creepy moments, I've been a little critical of Catherine in the past, but when she needed to switch up to creepy, she nailed it.

I wonder what people are thinking of the new music, it's good, will it stay for Ncuti?

Slightly cartoonish as times, consider Midnight, that worked so well, because the horror was implied, we used our imaginations to fill in the blanks, this would have worked brilliantly were it not for the Circus arms and legs, but who knows maybe they're part of The Toymaker's Plan.

A much better episode compared to The Star Beast. Wild Blue Yonder certainly had the elements of a mysterious Doctor Who episode again along with thrill and a good amount of comedy (although i wouldn't recommend a goofy comedy scene right before a serious one). Apart from that i actually liked this one.

It did however have it's fair share of bad pacing, it was a clash between a suspenseful scene and one that just dragged. Towards the second half it all started to fit together though and thus the tone was back. I think one of the main things i liked about this was how weird it was, that's what Doctor Who is supposed to be...a thrilling mysterious ride. Besides the certain scenes in this that were extremely goofy with lower budget effects, that was a little too weird. Nevertheless, better than last weeks.

I'm also going to just ignore the opening scene with Isaac Newton because compared to the rest of the episode i just couldn't find it's relevance to the story. It was too random and daft.
