With its Time Window based twists, mystery box openings, and big third act Sutekh reveal, ‘The Legend Of Ruby Sunday’ — despite an exposition-heavy opening — ended with the promise of a barnstorming finale ahead for Russell T. Davies’ first series back at the helm of Doctor Who. And it’s safe to say that it’s a promise well kept by ‘Empire Of Death’. Emotionally charged, narratively knotty, and cleverly self-referential, it’s a whirlwind hour of Who that sees Davies tip his hat to Avengers: Infinity War and The Last Jedi as he brings his own grand tale of heroes and villains to a blockbusting conclusion.

If ‘The Legend Of Ruby Sunday’ was a little slow starting, the same can’t be said of ‘Empire Of Death’. In a blistering opening that picks up right where last week’s episode left off,...
