GamesRadar+ Verdict
‘Lux’ initially feels like a traditional Doctor Who story, but is anything but.
He at least manages to reach Earth, but in the wrong decade and location.
Rather than London in the 2020s, this is Miami in the ’50s.
Still, there’s a shut down cinema and 15 missing patrons to investigate.
He’s not confined to the cinema screen either.
Something new
Ncuti Gatwa, it has to be said, is absolutely terrific in this episode.
I noted in myreview of ‘The Robot Revolution’a certain chilliness to his Doctor this time around.
Belinda’s quest to get home takes a bit of a back seat this time around.
