I still haven't watched "Love and Monsters", because of the lack of the Doctor, when I still sort of liked him.
His role isn't large, but what there is, is lovely. I like that story. It's helps that I'm a big fan of Jackie Tyler, and she's nicely heroic in this. In a Jackie-like sort of way.
on first viewing, "Random Shoes" was really good, but since I can't stand Gwen, and she's the only one really featured heavily in it...
I love Gwen, but didn't think she was at her best in this one, and she's more interesting when she's interacting with Jack or others on the Torchwood team. Or Rhys, who is totally missing here.
I'd rather have Jaquetta May write more episodes, instead of Chibnall (bleh!).
Many fans would agree with you.
, my fave bit was Jack in the office, and then hearing the sound of the TARDIS, his smile and looking completely different from TW Jack, then disappearing.
That was my favourite bit, too. But there were other bits I liked. And bits I hated. An odd episode.
That the right kind of (D)octor would have tempted him? You didn't hear Jack scream or anything?
He was running...! But I can see her reasoning.

I agree exactly. Jack was so happy and excited to see the Doctor again... and then look at the reception he got.

We shall see! If it's bad, well, the consolation is that he didn't write all of the episodes. If it's good - and I hope it will be - no problem.
