7.6 The Bells of Saint John review (SPOILER-FREE)

Plot: 4.5/5
Characters: 4.5/5
Enemies: 4/5
Effects: 4.5/5
Overall: 4.5/5

Plot: This episode was a fabulous opener for part two of the series. It's urban thriller story line was magnificent. In my opinion it was even better than 'The Angels Take Manhattan' and 'The Snowmen' because it focused on all elements rather than focusing mainly on one. The aliens in the wi-fi idea is a great one. The plot is that The doctor meets Clara again but realizes that something is not right about the internet.

Characters: The episode starts of with members of the public trying to access the internet and getting abducted by something (spoonheads) and then we see the screen of faces. Introduced straight after the pre-credits is Jenna-Louise Coleman's third Character Clara. Her character is different than her other two but a lot of the aspects are the same.

Enemies: The enemies in this episode are very hard to tell. You may think that Miss Kizlet (Celia Imre) is the enemy. The spoonheads are not in the episode for long although they are not exactly the enemies anyway. Making a re-appearance is The Great Intelligence. (Richard E. Grant)

Effects: There were a lot of effects in this episode although the one that stood out was the doctor driving up the shard in London. This episode had good effects which mostly consisted of internet shots and uploading shots.

Overall: I am going to have to end this review quickly so that I don't get abducted by my internet so all I am going to say is that I highly reccomend this episode!
