Yeah you could frame it as an advantage like that but, defective production no matter how pacey, is worse than no production. I guess I’m grumpy because it could be a better show (both objectively and in my opinion) were it done differently and it feels like it is being done in a slightly shonky way because that suits the writing and directing team rather than for a positive reason to do with the audience. But then 8.9m people can’t be wrong. (1) I have no evidence for my supposition that the structure of the show is designed for the writing team rather than the audience except intuition. I’m not getting the feeling that they’ve looked at the audience and gone – they want fast paced action with some sonic screwdriver action and Alex Kingston in a corset. I more get the impression that they don’t want to censor themselves, so everything goes in, not just the good stuff.
