Episode 5 of Season 7 - A mediocre good-bye to the Ponds
I went into season 7 of Doctor Who with high hopes. It is the 50th anniversary of The Doctor and Moffat has promised us some great things to celebrate. The first few episodes of the season were spectacular. The next few episodes, not quite as good, but still entertaining. But this last episode before the break just felt flat to me. Episode 5 - ‘The Angels Take Manhattan’ - was the planned departure point for the long-time companion team of Amy and Rory and Moffat said on many-an-occasion that it would be “heartbreaking”. And while sad though it was, the story that the departure was placed within was not much to look at.
