And maybe it's cuz I'm jumping between Matt Smith and Ncuti, but the effects feel very excessive. It's not dingy enough for Doctor Who, you know what I mean?

Oh no Maestro was good, but I agree with my friend, all we could think about was Hocus Pocus

My 6 year old, not bothered about snot monsters, but is now terrified of being attacked by musical notation...

Gotta admit, I'm not sold on this iteration of the doctor yet, but I was the same with all the new Who's aside from Peter Capaldi. But I loved him as Malcolm Tucker beforehand.

Tbh they should've done the music differently, just using notation in the same way as MoM felt almost lazy in a way?

Yknow what would've been cool: if it worked like sonic waves instead — then you could have more interaction with the new totally-still-a-screwdriver.

I mean they're still working with a budget, D+ involvement means more but probably not a huge difference. Plus Who is known for their terrible fx lol

Surely wavey circular lines are cheaper than CGI notes XD

Either way it's poorly executed lol
