I know but I haven't enjoyed the past three episodes as much as I thought I would and I just want it to get better soon and I'm sort of scared it won't.
I'm not saying they're bad episodes because I know many have really loved them, I've still enjoyed them, it just feels like something is missing. I have a feeling it's Clara, modern Clara. I loved the other two Claras and this one is good too but she just doesn't seem as good as the others. I'm beginning to think it would have been better off with Victorian Clara.
Sorry to sound really depressing. My friend thinks it's the best it's been since series 3.
I think a lot of it could do with me being on here, I guess I'm easily influenced. Like, when Bells Of St John was on I thought it was quite good but not fantastic and then, as usual, I came on here. I saw quite a lot of comments on Jenna and her acting, saying how it's very obvious and self aware, like the way she spoke wasn't natural. I don't see this with the other two Clara's but once that was pointed out I sort of noticed it a little with this Clara. However, after watching these three episodes I still think her acting is brilliant, she just hasn't had the effect the others had on me. I think it's just when people point stuff out that I hadn't noticed it makes the show less magical for me, I couldn't bear to leave though.
