I didn't like this episode, as I feel there was no redeeming feature to it. The main guest character was just appalling, no redeeming features about her, and with the doctor and Ruby not there much, it felt wrong.

The focus of the episode was to concentrate on the guest character's personality traits.

In the eyes of the viewer she transitioned from just plain shallow, to comical (lamp post incident), to vulnerable, then finally to someone you wouldn't ever want to know.

That's quite a narrative feat in the space of 45 minutes. The strongest emotion was generated at the end, and it wasn't in favour of the guest character.

The SFX were amazing. No wonder they cost so much.
