The character of the Doctor has been totally destroyed forever and bares no resemblance whatsoever to anything that looks and feels like Doctor Who.

<<There’s no denying the red-hot parallels to the widespread protest over Israel’s inclusion in this year’s Eurovision – and the reiteration that the contest is not political.
Given the context, it was extremely alarming and disturbing, to watch the Doctor confront Kid and immediately begin to torture him in a display of heartlessness that is never fully explained (in the lead-up or fallout).
Belinda, who shows far more sympathy for this race’s plight, manages to stop him from going all the way, and he only justifies his behaviour by saying that he was blinded by his rage given the slaughter of the Time Lords.
No offence, but this is something the Doctor has grappled with since the start of the reboot (not to mention dedicating an entire regeneration for healing in therapy) and has only been driven to this level of cruelty by his mortal enemy, the Daleks.
What’s more, even when the Doctor discovers the full context of Kid’s violent actions, he shows no interest in appealing to any good left within him or helping his race.
Just sends him to prison without a second glance. Despite the good intentions of the episode, the episode ultimately felt like it bit off more than it could chew.
It’s a horrid move for this Doctor’s characterisation, who has shown more kindness to literal racists. Even Lucky Day conspiracy theorist Conrad (Jonah Hauer-King) got away with a bit of a scolding.>>
