ICYMI: DoctorWho's timeywimey stories work best when they're simple, but they really go off the rails when they're overly complicated with no heart. Opinion / BBC DisneyPlus RussellTDavies StevenMoffat DavidTennant MattSmith PeterCapaldi
\nThere's a new Doctor Who compilation video this week; this time, it's about the series' most notable timey wimey plots, the best and the worst, and there are valuable lessons in storytelling here. In fact, it's given us a chance to make the case that the best of these storylines work because they keep things simple.
Moffat's second season, the sixth in the modern show's run, was hopelessly convoluted as it delves into Amy and Rory's marriage and the truth about River Song's origins and identity, and the conspiracy by the Doctor's enemies to take him down. All of Moffat's worst instincts and excesses are in this season, and it was only held together by Matt Smith's mix of zaniness and desperation as he juggles several timey wimey contrivances all the way to the season's end.
