After a few days to digest this and multiple viewings to comfirm my feelings about this episode, I am sad to say that it treads dangerously close to a point at which I want to disavow it as “real” Doctor Who and start pretending that it doesn’t “count.”
The Joy of Sex? Jane’s Fighting Ships? Mrs. Beeton’s Book of Household Management?
