    All things considered, I’m might be willing to forgive a few teething problems.

    At its heart(s), it's a highly-polished slice of good old-fashioned Doctor Who – uncomplicated but not unsophisticated and, above all else, fun.

    The [Space Babies] plot involves nappies and bogeys, which makes it fun for younger viewers but a bit cringe-worthy for adults. An entry-level episode in many ways, it has the Doctor explaining the basics to Ruby. .... The [The Devil’s Chord] episode has a good opening scene but then goes on for what feels like forever, with drag queen Jinkx Monsoon chewing the scenery as Maestro. .... The main asset of the new Doctor Who is Gatwa, who carries the series along with the force of his megawatt charisma.

    Space Babies is a textbook example of a mid-ranking Who instalment, fun but forgettable and, ultimately, not making sense. .... Much better is episode two, The Devil’s Chord, which takes the Doctor and Ruby to Abbey Road to witness the Beatles recording their debut album.
