Notes | ||
DRAMA in an episode titles Arachnids in the UK see what they did there?) Sex and the City's Mr Big, Chris Noth, plays a hotel mogul with a spider problem, it's a sturdy, fun episode full of 1950s horror B-movie hokum, miles away from the crushing sanctimony of last week, with Noth (via writer Chris Chibnall) having a few sly digs at his global fame. The Doctor and her little band are back in Sheffield, where Yaz (Mandip Gill), Ryan (Tosin Cole) and Graham (Bradley Walsh) return home. But after all they've been through together, life can't be the same again in South Yorkshire, and there are big decisions for everyone. First - a creepy infestation... Credit: Radio Times, p62
