beccaelizabethWriters killing the one black man to demonstrate someone else is evil
kind of has a built in problem.
*sigh*
Also it's no fun flinching all through the episode in full expectation it's going to happen.
I don't see what else the episode had going for it.
Felt like the Doctor was just watching and he and Bill could have been swapped out for any number of other people.
Not my sort of thing at all.
The last couple of minutes obviously have potential though.

Date: 2017-06-12 10:32 am (UTC)having specifically said writers killing black man, I shall apologise and watch my wording on future occasion, because color blind casting. but that writers have time to object to?
but his specific reason was that there weren't any black soldiers, and then he found one on the historical record, and I just... that isn't the most relevant objection.
also it's funny how color blind casting leads to such a deadbro problem.
