Another fairly decent Dr Who episode. Thin Ice was certainly a more traditional story in the spirit of Dr Who past or should I say loooong ago. This series feels certainly MORE like Dr Who. Instead of the convoluted and sometimes confusing plots that Moffat came up with in the not too distant past. Though I had no issues with following those said plots to a degree. I just feel that the Dr Who team needed to redress the balance with bringing back this style of episodic story telling again.
Will Chibnall follow through with what the current Dr Who team have done with this soft reboot of Dr Who?
I would rate Thin Ice with a 6.8 Though I would've liked to of seen Miss Mackie and Capaldi do a nice ice skating duet together toward the end. Then I would of given Thin Ice 8.5.
This Week Knock, Knock. Certainly a Ghost Light vibe with that story.
