    Capaldi was just handed shit script after shit script and he did what he could but you really can’t fix a shit script no matter how good an actor you are

      Yeah, Capaldi was fantastic, but had to make do with some absolutely terrible writing. Robots of Sherwood legitimately made me mad when I saw it.

      Whitaker got the same treatment, but somehow even worse. She couldn’t even settle for playing an interesting Doctor in bad story lines. Instead they made her an unironic PTA middle-aged mom trying to be hip, when she could have been so much more.
