Of course Missy is going to needle and bully Clara, but as I'm finding Clara so irredeemable I found myself enjoying what was basically someone with all the power crushing an ant (I larffed out loud at the push down the hole! and the tied up bit! and the pointy stick bandinage!) - I think I am being a DREADFUL HIPPY about this but... cmon!! Either Clara and the Doc explore the world of ~feels~ or Clara gets outright bullied?

And we've done Clara-being-a-dalek, without even a callback to previous dalek experiences (unless she hasn't had them yet, FRANKLY I do not remember where we left off with Oswin souffle dalek ~handwavey impossible~).

I second the shoutout to the chair gag.

I agree on the first bit... Clara is so irritating that Missy shoving her down the hole made me cackle.

I think Clara has very vague memories of all the other alternoClaras that were created when she jumped into the timestreamywimestreamy thingy that Withnail was trying to mess about with. But there was a lot of handwaving going on witht hat bit so not entirely sure.

So she might possibly remember having been a Dalek in one of her other existences but she might not, or something.

Also, next week looks blimming scary, doesn't it, ladies and, ahem, "gentlemen"...

I like the very 60s B&W feel of the Skaro interiors, and the return of the classic style Daleks. Still don't think Clara could fit in one, or even that the Doctor could fit in Davros' wheelchair without tossing out a bunch of life support junk.

Perhaps they're bigger on the inside?

I forgot to add the chair bit! I LOVED LOVED LOVED that line.
