That ruined the episode for me. Would have been so much better if there was a scene where she reassures young gran that she will live a good life and when she gets back the gran acknowledged Yaz was there. Turnd out she was her "favourite granddaughter" for a reason.

Loved tonight’s episode.
Weaponised bubble wrap.... resistance is futile. Coming soon evil sentient angry polystyrene balls... careful they’ll be absolutely foaming
Just in time to scare the little un's at Christmas

Great way to stop them psychologically to not look at what present is under tree. Wrap a box in Christmas paper and then bubble wrap with DANGER stickers all over...

William Russell who played Dr Who's companion in the first season was born in Sunlun!

Please be true! The soapbox moralising of this series is woeful.

Still alive too
It's also his 94th birthday today!

One of the original time-travellers with the first Dr Who (William Hartnell) back on 23 November 1963 - the day after JFK was assassinated and a week before the Beatles headlined at the Sunderland Empire!
He was in the Great Escape too.

He’s a lovely man too. My daughter was his assistant at a Comic Con in Belfast a couple of years ago. He asked her where she was from and told her he was from Sunderland. Apparently his dad wasn’t impressed by him being an actor and wanted him to get a proper job after he left university!

Last night's episode was cracking, although imagine the "urgh why does it have to be about politics" snowflakes will be getting their knickers in a twist about it.
Good story, food allergies behind it, good acting and good fun. After a slow start I think the series has really picked up.

Cheers. Those first few I have on DVD, but really just to run through some of the classic stories, Daleks, Sonotrans, Cybermen etc.
I don't mind Jodie, far better than Capaldi and some of the stupider Matt Smith moments.
Bradley Walsh seemed to start decent but has become very wooden. I think the writers are struggling to deal with 3 assistants and don't know what to do with the old bloke, so he has to stand straight and deliver the odd line to remind people he is still there.
I thought the last couple have been fairly decent episodes.
All this talk of political agendas though, do the BBC have a northern agenda going through with this series? Everywhere they go, everyone they meet, all either Yorkshire or Lancastrian.

The Zarbi and the Menoptera were great. From "The Web Planet"
That felt a lot more like a proper Doctor Who tonight, Jodie finally got her "I am the Doctor" moment. But, by the standards of series 1-10, that was still only a "good" story and wasn't an all-time classic. If the rest of the series had been like this though, I wouldn't have minded.
Chibnall is writing next week's so I have no doubt it'll be boring.
