The Witch's
Familiar
The
follow up episode to The Magician's Apprentice.
(Reviewing on it's own merits. The review of the two parter as such
will be next.) This wasn't as disjointed as the previous outing (by
virtue of it being set entirely on Skaro). There are a few
interesting interactions, although why Clara is showing so much
naivity towards Missy is not well understood. However, the
interactions between the Doctor and Davros make up for that, with
some very good discussions about compassion (particularly that of the
Doctor and the lack of it in the Daleks) and respect (the way Davros
dismisses it as a design flaw).
A
question, though, how does the Doctor produce regeneration energy on
a whim, as it were? (It has happened before, but that was Romana, not
the Doctor.) A good conclusion to the two-parter. 7.5/10.
