It's a little sad that it took until the very last Whittaker story to get things to a level of strong entertainment, but Chibnall ends the era of the Whittaker Doctor on a pretty decent note. It was a divisive era, marked by forgettable aliens, simple plots, a lack of horror and a lot of preaching, not to mention a try at altering the show's mythos which alienated a lot of the fan-base. Over the last half decade, the Dr Who series has fallen from being the jewel in the BBC's crown to a show with mediocre ratings, too. But as Jodie Whittaker departs and fans wait to see if returning RTD and new Doctor can revitalize the show, it is good that the swansong of Doctor 13 at least tried to win back some good will.
