Tour Updates New Who for You David Tennant Series 14

A Two-Hander of Unusual Size

Aside from topping and tailing the episode. Wild Blue Yonder is essentially a two-hander between Tennant and Tate.  It’s also a slow build, where the creepiness doesn’t assault the viewer but lingers in sly smiles and crooked necks, at least until the freakiness becomes a full-frontal confrontation.

Shades of Midnight crossed with a dollop of Heaven Sent, there’s a surprising amount of revelation between the leads, even if they didn’t know who was who.  It was wonderful.

As the mystery guest within a 3-episode ‘season,’ the images available are pretty much a standard set seen everywhere, but polished up to exacting Tour standards.

Caps to follow.
