Trin Tragula posted:Consolidated rating for The Witch's Familiar: 5.71 million, the lowest since 2005. Or, put another way, a show that used to sit up with Coronation Street and EastEnders in the weekly charts is now being handily beaten by loving Emmerdale. Once again, the limit of timeshifting appears to be about 2 million regardless of whatever else was going on during original broadcast. If ratings stay at this level I wouldn't be surprised if something happens in time for the next series. I'd imagine Moffat and possibly Peter C. could be kicked loose. New blood, get people excited again and all that. I seriously doubt they'll cancel it yet. This could be the point where the Doctor becomes a woman finally, that'd get viewers.

That was a great episode! The slow burn at the first while the reveals come, then the montage getting faster and faster to the end. Yeah, the hybrid stuff is a bit annoying at this point but at least they haven't bludgeoned us with it like they did Missy last season and the cracks and etc... Watching it a second time with my wife last night I noticed some of the really cool moments I missed first time around, and enjoyed it even more, though she, surprisingly hated the whole thing. She said it was just "Moffatt being Moffetty, look at how smart I am, I'm tricking you, etc..." which I can see a bit, but I'd have to agree with other posters that it seems to be what he does best (and hardly does any more). Capaldi really sold the whole thing. I'm not sure any of our modern Docs could have pulled off that episode, and even if they had it wouldn't have worked as well as it did.
