There wasn’t much of a pay-off to the conclusion of last’s week episode, which left Clara angry and distrusting of her companion. That was a bit irritating, as the series used a time-hop to easily place these two back together. However, as the hour went on, the Doctor’s practical mindset (and lack of subsequent emotion) seeped out little by little, helping Clara’s frustrations rise to the surface once again. It maybe would have been nice to see these two actually apart for a little while, though at least the Christie-inspired mystery made for an entertaining viewing. The mummy, for one thing, was a very cool addition to the series. Once you saw it, you only had 66 seconds to live. YIKES! What did everyone else think of this installment?
