I don't mind pseudoscientific babble but that was an abomination against biology and really basic physics.

Didnt see that coming
But most inportant thing to come out of it.....in canon proof that a male timelord can regenerate as a Female Timelord...Autarch, Shas'o, Chaos Lord and Decadant Lord of the Webway. And a Doctor!

Needs more Missy.
Really enjoyed that finale, and I still don't get the interwebular disdain for Moffat?Fed up for Scalpers? https://www.facebook.com/groups/1710575492567307/?ref=bookmarks

it wasn't bad, better then some the cybermen episodes from the past, an interesting take on it, converting all the dead and cyberising them, having made copies of their brain paterns at the moment of death, then rewriting the patterns....
Looking at it overall, it seems NONE of the orginal type of Cybermen were involved at all.....
I think the reason that Missy gave for the whole thing was just perfect given Her (his) history....."I was there the day Horus slew the Emperor".....

Actually a little disappointed. The first part last week was great and se tup a lot. This second half, the final episode, fell flat. Didn't think it had much of an ending. Basically no closure if Clara is gone, they've pretty much killed the master off (no chance for regen). Did like the nods and bits to the Brigadier though.
And massive cringe at Santa in the Christmas episode, although the trailer makes it look like a cross between Miracle of 34th Street and Alien....Autarch, Shas'o, Chaos Lord and Decadant Lord of the Webway. And a Doctor!

Yeah, Missy teleported, most likely into that Time Lord device, after all those Cybermen were her creation, I expect she built in failsafes so if they targeted her, she'd get zapped with a Transmat beam to safety.

Yup.
Plus we saw her able to enter and exit seemingly at will, when she zapped Squee....Fed up for Scalpers? https://www.facebook.com/groups/1710575492567307/?ref=bookmarks

Yeah I liked that bit, her own technology cheering for her defeat and downfall by cheering the Doctor! Originally Posted by Mr Mystery

"Closure" for Clara will come in the Christmas episode.
And Santa and the Doctor have been together in various media already (and official stories, too), so it's not exactly a crazy new thing.
When you have a race like the Time Lords and all that they can do, is it really that bad to throw in the occasional actual fable or whatever and act like, "In this universe, these guys are totally real, but not the way you think they are"?
