Doctor Who: The Church on Ruby Road (2023)
Ok, But why is the acting so poor.
In my opinion I found Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson immediately charming and fun to watch. But the acting from the rest of the cast is just bad and unconvincing..
I watched the three David Tennant specials and I found the same problem.
There is hope though, as there is a lot of energy and moments of joy with the new Doctor and his new companion.
I know it is hard to come up with something new after so many years, but I remember the movie Gremlins and this episode reminded me too much of that. I would have liked to have known a little bit of their back story. It just seemed so rushed. Also I felt the special gloves were just there to help solve a problem later on in the story.
Although the story sagged a bit, it could have been so much better. The mystery surrounding Ruby Sunday's mother didn't really make me care all that much. If RTD wants people to tune in each week for this then he needs to bring some intrigue into the mix.
