    Robert Holmes did an incredible job virtually crafting an entire mythology in just four episodes. This feels like such a turning point, almost like Who could be defined by pre and post deadly assassin and Tom's a hoot at the end too. 😆

    Quite a few sci-fi and/or fantasy series that have been going a while have a story or two where some plot device gives them an "excuse" to escape the constraints of reality, eg a dream sequence, VR (as in this case), entering someone's mind etc. The success level is variable but I think it works here. Ok, it's a triumph of style over content, but at least it IS a triumph.

    Just saw a tweet that points out the similarities between these matrix scenes and the matrix scenes in TTC, perhaps this was the matrix trying to tell the Doctor of his hidden past. The episode shares things directly from this episode as well, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that was Chibnall’s intent.
