I really like this story. It could have benefited from being a bit shorter but all the characters are really great. I think it is smart to have a human villain along with the Daleks. It makes them more relatable. Sara is fantastic, I would have loved to have her in the show longer than we got, but I also like that this story has consequences. Both Katarinas and Saras feel sad in a good way.

I watched the 3 surviving episodes and finally ginished reading the novelisation today, and I greatly enjoyed them!
I thought I must have watched the episodes on the Lost in Time boflx set years ago, but having watched them I don’t believe I had. The fact that one surviving episode was a monk one was a wonderful surprise to me, I don’t know how I’d never watched it before. Really hope this gets the animation treatment in the near future, it’s a story with such a grand sense of scale and getting more of Katarina and Sara on screen would be lovely.
I can see why people think the Monk section drags the story down but I love it myself. A character that deserves another screen appearance. The hat the Doctor wears in this part is great too!
I like Mavic Chen but the yellowface is distracting and one of the main issues I have with the story.

Easily the worst Part of it, I am sure when they animate it, they will probably find a Way to make it well… better, similarly as they did with the Tibetan Monks in the Snowmen Animation
