It feels like it’s only just begun, but Peter Capaldi’s first season of Doctor Who has finished. And what a season it’s been!
CultBox asked our followers on Twitter to send in a tweet-sized review of Season 8 – here’s what you had to say…
@CultBoxTV Dark, deep and definitely better than previous Moffat series’ ! Capaldi is brilliant and has become one of my favourite Doctors!

@CultBoxTV I’m 100% sold on Capaldi’s Doctor. My fave NuWho Doctor and possibly all time fave, & Series8 is probably my fave since Series4.

@CultBoxTV The wonderfully Scottish kick up the arse that the show needed! Funny, dark, and great viewing!

@CultBoxTV I’m not entirely sure. I have a horrible feeling it’s slowly morphing back into the series that got itself sidelined & cancelled

@CultBoxTV Best in ages, Capaldi and Coleman both brilliant, hardly any poor eps and a handful of classics – characters much better written.

@CultBoxTV S8 was brilliant, wonderfully acted overall with fantastic scripts and sets. #Capaldi & @Jenna_Coleman_ were amazing! 8/10

@CultBoxTV Capaldi and Coleman outstanding. Direction and visuals superb. Cohesive plotting? Oh dear.

@CultBoxTV Mostly good, sporadically brilliant. Capaldi superb, JLC immeasurably improved. Finale sloppily plotted, but thematically apt.

@CultBoxTV Got to be honest, I didnt love it. Too many plot holes. And I felt my brain turn to pudding as I watched. I love Capaldi though.

@CultBoxTV Dreadful. A complete mess, an insult to a much loved character & actor. Flying Cybes & Missy Poppins? No thanks. I quit.

@CultBoxTV Absolute bonkers, and oh so gut wrenching. No happy ending, but what an ending to a series.

@CultBoxTV The most thematically coherent & consistent series of Who, bar none. Coleman & Capaldi were sublime. Well done to Moffat & team.
