I want to highlight some *good* things about the #Chibnall era of #DoctorWho:

1. It looked gorgeous. The last nine episodes were shot during pandemic restrictions, which meant they had to lean heavily on green screen shots, but within that it looked fantastic.

2. Segun Akinola did an incredible job of creating mood without drawing attention to his score, particular in Flux and the final specials.

3. Sacha Dhawan’s performance as the Master. Unbelievably good. Most of his scenes looked like they'd been plucked from a whole different show.

4. Mandip Gill got to do some powerhouse acting a few times, particularly in the finale. I cannot wait to see what she does next. And she’s *stunning*.

5. Chibnall’s boss new hairdo. Look at it. LOOK AT IT.

@admdvs Uncertain about Chibnall's hair, but agree with your other points. Definitely preferred Akinola's approach to the music over Murray Gold's.
@inanimatecarbongod Yeah, and I thought Gold did great work but it massively took over some of the time (e.g. the 11th Doctor's theme).
