But what did you think of the superheroic shenanigans of Peter Capaldi’s Twelfth Doctor and Justin Chatwin’s Ghost? Was it a real Marvel, or did it leave you wanting to Avenge your wasted time?

Was the return of Matt Lucas’ Nardole a welcome addition, or did he rub you up the wrong way? Were the villains too scary or not scary enough? Were the jokes proper rib-ticklers, or gags so weak they’d make a Christmas cracker blush?

And, perhaps most importantly of all, did it pique your interest for the long-awaited full series due to kick off next Spring?
