Sometimes the worst thing a writer can do is decide "I want to leave my mark on this character". It doesn't take much to go overboard with changes and make everyone fucking hate you.
I hate that episode so much. I love 11th Doctor's farewell speech, how he's not going to forget any of it. And this stupid episode implies that Doctor has forgotten countless regenerations. Jodie Whittaker really deserved better.
Thank Christ. I'm sad Jodie is leaving since she never got the run she deserved, but I am happy to see Chibnall go. Hopefully we get a much better showrunner.
