I’d also thought “Well where are all the craters from then?”. Also, why didn’t the Doctor just sonic-screwdriver the mine/ambulance?!

You might also be interested in this take from Oliver Johnson, a Prof of Maths and Bristol Uni. He also thinks it was rather preachy, but in an odd way: https://bristoliver.substack.com/p/punching-up-and-punching-down

Not my cup of tea at all. I have no sense at all of who the new Doctor is, a problem I also had with his last 2 predecessors!

We debated whether to bother watching and decided to give it one more chance. Jury is now back and we won’t bother to watch any more sadly.

Doctor Who was always a kids program that treated kids like adults, now it feels like a kids program written for kids.

Roll on the next Doctor 😐😐
