What about Dracula, the book, but from the brides' point of view?

I now believe in this so much I will be dissappointed if anything else happens.

You know, the Doctor never really cared about the fact that the lab was infected with bacteria. Maybe he's been sick ever since.

If she has children, they can stay. If she doesn't, they just move on to the next planet.

They do explain a little, and the Doctor says something like "I've had a year to integrate myself with it's matrix" or whatever. But yeah, reversing ageing is still…. ugh.

Davies worst episodes also had a tendency for replacing coherent for cool, it's just it was "character" cool most of the time, as opposed to Moffat's "plot" cool, and for some reason that makes it alright.

Capaldi is so good as the Doctor, and these past two series have been so amazing that they have retroactively made series 8 a whole lot better (rewatching now). I'm still holding out hope they don't find someone to play the thirteenth Doctor and they convince Capaldi to stay.

Why fight for keeping us when they can just go to another planet and conquer them with their mind-rape? You might say "they put a lot of work into it" but by what Missy said this is more like their version of golf. Or their coming-of-age ritual. Whatever. They're meant to succeed with the mind-rape and if they don't……

Also about rewriting history to suit your party/whatever.

That's what I meant, if it had fixed something mental then it could've worked, because of the way the Angel Network or whatever was set up. As it stands, I have the same feelings as you.

Haha no problem, been there.

That's the whole point of my comment.

It does seem like a very Master-y thing to do…. Say something nice.

I found the Doctor introducing Missy as "this is the other 'Last of the Time Lords'" hilarous, purely because of how many times the Nine through Eleven liked to pull that angst card and Twelve is so nonchalant about it here like "yeah, I used to say I was this a lot, turns out it was never true. Whatever."

I think if effects had been handled better, and the everybody-think-Doctor thing had fixed a Master-induced mental block instead of a physiological thing, the episode would've been golden.

I've got a feeling that if one of the soldiers had just shot that strange looking monk it would've been much more satisfying and hilarious at the same time.

It wouldn't have had the same impact if it wasn't her calling it out to his face, when he decides her solution is "not good enough" because it involves someone he knows.

I love this meme so much you've just made my day. XD

They weren't devoted; invading is just their thing, down to an art. Presumably that's why they left so easily (Missy says something to that effect - they chalk it up to experience and move on).

Maybe the sim-Doctor has always committed suicide by the point they get to the taking-over so they can't predict his moves correctly.
