On Doctor Who 2022

Andrew Rilstone appears to have pulled his blog post on Doctor Who's Christmas Special. I was going to link to it but now can't.

For a long time I've struggled with Doctor Who. I've struggled with Moffat and the lack of narrative.  I don't have much confidence that the new head writer will be any better than Moffat

Now seems like a good time to take a break. Perhaps that break will be long, perhaps permanent. Perhaps, if the reviews are surprisingly good,  as Rilstone suggested in his now lost blog, I can watch all of Whitaker's episodes on Netflix over Christmas 2022. I expect she'll have quit by then.

But I'm quitting now.

EDIT:

The original Andrew Rilstone blog post is now back up. It may have been re-drafted a bit since I read it.

Out of interest, what was the gist of Andrew Rilstone's blog post? I didn't see it, and obviously can't read it now. I assume from the context of what you've said that he too has some serious misgivings right now.
