The Doctor is still travelling with the same person she met minutes after regenerating. Unless the doctor left her at a greenpeace meeting went off for a few centuries before picking her up then 13 didn't last long.

We don’t get to see everything the Doctor does! She’s very old.

Yeah, that's a possibility I alluded to but still. Annoys me. Like when 9 was 900 and 10 was 903 near the end of his run. 11 got hundreds of years even if you don't include his time on Christmas. 12 had a while...

Doesn’t bother me. The diamond punching years didn’t happen because that was shite. Likewise the town called Christmas. Load of shite. Ignore it and move on. Probably timelines that didn’t happen now or something.
 
Not gonna lie, they got me with the teegan, ace, and their respective doctors moments.

That was actually quite well done, even if bonkers conkers.

Really not sure about bringing back Tenant, nor having clothes regenerate.

Seeing Ian again....
 
Crucially, it was lovely to see them bring back Ace and Tegan and not completely waste them or make it a short cameo. I was prepared to hate it mightily for that. I'm impressed that it was only slightly shit.

I always thought Janet was a pretty good actress, despite Tegan being written to be stand offish.

Not sure what you mean by "despite", I always really loved that about the character :D

Also have to say I love the current iteration of The Master.

I used to hate her as a kid, but I've grown to like her. However toward the end the writing struggled to make use of her and so she came across as mopey.
 
I thought it was a mess but enjoyable in places. They name dropped
the dead auntie and Adric
. I also enjoyed the Masters get up and accessories
when being the doctor.

A one off?

I've not heard anything about it. To be honest my daughter and my interest in the doctor has wavered somewhat after the new backstory bollocks. Not sure how they will ever come back from that.

It was Whittaker's last episode as The Doctor, it's all we've been talking about for months (in terms of Doctor Who related chat), it was on tonight - you must have stopped showing interest as you say.

It's weird. I was just looking at DVDs with my daughter last week. I think we forgot all about the latest doctor and that it was ending. I remember how excited my daughter was that Dr Who was a woman. . . she loved Capaldi, but she still ran around the garden shouting for joy.
Her face when she watched the last series was the exact opposite.

We will watch it though. We have been meaning to flick through some older DVDs (quite surprisingly my daughter seems to unironically like some of them).
 
Bit annoyed about the fact that the BBC News just had a bit about Whittaker's last episode in which they interviewed Tennant but not Whittaker, and went on about "return of a favourite Doctor" :hmm:
 
I quite liked that - I especially appreciate seeing multiple older women in action roles which is something in too-short supply.

Good ending
my guess is this will turn out to some kind of temporary regeneration energy weirdness - we've seen it do odd things before
 
It's already in the plot that Tennant-Doctor didn't want to regenerate, so it sort of makes sense that his consciousness would emerge if there was some weird regeneration energy malarkey going on.

gsv also reckons it's foreshadowed in the Doctor's encounter with 'The curator' (played by Tom Baker) a few series back, where the latter mentions he may 'revisit some old faces'
