Yes, I'm behind.
Whatever you think of Boom and, broadly speaking, the Internet seems to be positive, there was a subtle sigh of relief when Doctor Who returned to something a bit more normal-for-Doctor-Who - though the fact that a high-concept episode like this felt like a return to normality says something about the two episodes that preceded it.
( More under the cut )
It was a very solid episode. At the time many people were confidently talking of it as the highlight of the season, but given what has come since, I think it will in retrospect look like something of a filler episode. High-concept Doctor Who but not as high-concept as any of the stuff that surrounds it.
