Doctor Who “Wish World” review: The Last of the Time Lords (redux)

"Wish World" from Doctor Who masterfully portrays middle-class paranoia through its tense narrative, offering emotional depth with contrasting societal themes. The production design, featuring elements like Rassilon's seal and a vibrant dance sequence, enhances visual appeal, reminiscent of iconic sequences. However, the episode suffers from rushed plot development, lackluster motivation for the Rani's actions, an unremarkable starting point that undermines shock value, and a weaker denouement compared to previous episodes, resulting in a compelling yet disjointed exploration of its themes.
