Not sure what to make of that? Dr Who does farce? It's not any form of DW I'm comfortable with. I'd love to see Caplidi in longer stories with more depth. It's all too superficial for me.
OMG I laughed and laughed so much through it.. Thought the robot face design was great and the cross symbol of death from them great. Definitely a favourite episode for me. so far.. I liked the nods to the past ie miniscope and of cause Troughton as Robin Hood pic.. Oh and WOW wasn't Clara sexy..

Started well and then lost it's way pretty quickly. Having two episodes featuring crashed ships with robots so close together wasn't such a good idea. I did like the design though.
Robin and the Sheriff were well cast but it just reminded me of a certain Robin Hood movie ("we're men, men in tights") And having the Doctor and Robin arguing just smacked of padding. Never need to watch the scene of them in the prison cell again.... added nothing to the plot. Capaldi had some nice moments as did Jenna but they were few and far between.
Was a bit bemused with the episode. There was a lot to like but the crashed spaceship part of the story I thought was a little lazy. The moment where the gold arrow is shot onto the spaceship was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen in any tv programme. Surely they could have come up with something better.
Though the episode did feature one of the best jokes ever in Doctor Who. I'm gonna take over the whole of Nottingham, then possibly Derby, was genius.
