This needs some thinking!

I was originally going to restrict it to 1 vote per person, but then I realised just how tough it’d be to vote, hence 2. Still a tricky poll!

I appreciate you not putting Heaven Sent/Hell Bent on the list so I get to pick something else for once :rofl:

Tough to pick just two, the S1 finale would’ve been my next choice. Despite not loving 10, the S4 finale holds such a weight for me. I was a kid when it came out and it just was mindblowing and is still one of my fave finales. Also I adore UTL/BTF, S9 is so good.

For anyone wondering why that’s absent, it’s because I went off the Wiki list of episodes - and that doesn’t have them as “Part 1” and “Part 2”. But I know some of this stuff is a grey area, hence the option for “Other” :slight_smile:

Only two options! Aargh - Spyfall had to lose out to my other votes but was a very close third.

I went for ** World Enough and Time ** and ** Spyfall **! If there was a third option, I’d go for Under the Lake and Dark Water.

I’m surprised Doomsday hasn’t got any votes. I remember almost falling off my chair when the Army of Ghosts cliffhanger revealed itself.

I like Doomsday a lot, but unfortunately I like other two parters more :sob: :laughing:

Bad Wolf / Parting of the Ways and Human Nature / The Family of Blood for me. Two absolute classic stories for the rebooted show. I absolutely adore how camp the Series 1 finale is too, with all those TV show parodies.

I don’t think they’re my favourite stories in the list, but The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang, and Under The Lake/Before The Flood are my favourites as two parters, for how much they use the fact they’re two parters to their advantage

Human Nature/The Family of Blood my beloved.

Had to choose from Series 1-7 (well 6 actually, S7 has no 2-parters) but this was still hard. I think I have to go with this one though. It just nails everything it goes for in my opinion. Outside of the S3 finale this might also be Martha’s best showing.

Under the Lake/Before the Flood my Beloved

Also, WEaT/TDF. Sheer brilliance.
