Gatiss, you've done it. That was terrific, even better than your previous episode.
It might have been a thinly veiled backdoor pilot episode for the Paternoster Gang but it managed to not make me miss either the Doctor or Clara for a good portion of the episode.
Loved that the monster Ada was hiding was the Doctor and I loved that Jenny saved him and kicked some butt against the supermodels as well.
An interesting commentary piece on survival of the prettiest as well. Poor Ada. Gillyflower was a total bitch of a mother and her eventual demise in this episode was nicely gratifying as well.
The Paternoster lot were on fine form in this episode too and I liked their interactions with the Doctor and Clara as well.
Clever of Artie and Angie to get themselves some TARDIS travels in the end and I did like that Clara saw a photo of her other self as well.
I really want to watch this one again, 9/10
