A much better episode compared to The Star Beast. Wild Blue Yonder certainly had the elements of a mysterious Doctor Who episode again along with thrill and a good amount of comedy (although i wouldn't recommend a goofy comedy scene right before a serious one). Apart from that i actually liked this one.
It did however have it's fair share of bad pacing, it was a clash between a suspenseful scene and one that just dragged. Towards the second half it all started to fit together though and thus the tone was back. I think one of the main things i liked about this was how weird it was, that's what Doctor Who is supposed to be...a thrilling mysterious ride. Besides the certain scenes in this that were extremely goofy with lower budget effects, that was a little too weird. Nevertheless, better than last weeks.
I'm also going to just ignore the opening scene with Isaac Newton because compared to the rest of the episode i just couldn't find it's relevance to the story. It was too random and daft.
