'Doctor Who: Flux' Episode 4 Recap: Village of the Angels

Doctor Who: Flux has not been easy to follow. There have been frustrating times before, Doctor Who Season 7 and Clara's "Impossible Girl" immediately come to mind. But the first three episodes of Season 13 have been some of the most indecipherable and downright irritating in recent memory. Last week's episode, which I recapped blindly, was perhaps slightly worse than the premiere, which wasn't an episode at all, but a bunch of random beginnings to too many ideas. But this week, things started to gel again or at least found a direction.

Yaz: I mean, at least there's houses; it could have been the dinosaurs.

Last week's episode ended with a Weeping Angel grabbing the controls of the TARDIS and taking the Doctor, Dan and Yaz someplace else. It opened this week with the Doctor rebooting her beloved box to get the Angel out of the system. They landed in a small village in 1967, where Claire (whose premiere appearance had little context) has been residing for two years since that incident. She's under the care of Professor Jericho (Kevin McNally), who is trying to understand her premonitions about angels, the Doctor, and a specific blue box.
