This week's episode of #DoctorWho is the best new one so far. I loved the #AfroFuturism vibes. A Black Doctor allows the show to explore new stories & new elements of sci-fi. And it was written by a Nigerian poet! #InuaEllams I'll have to check him out. This is what I've been waiting for.

REVIEW: Doctor Who: The Story and The Engine – Stories Within Stories: When Doctor Who Becomes Pure Poetry”
Spoilers For Doctor Who Season 2, Episode 5: "The Story and the Engine" The Power of African Storytelling In a season packed with ambitious and genre-bending episodes, "The Story and the Engine" stands out as perhaps the most audacious yet. Written by Inua Ellams and directed by Makella McPherson, this Nigerian-set episode delivers a poetic, visually stunning meditation on storytelling, identity, and the power of myth that feels utterly unique in Doctor Who's 62-year history and quintessentially of the show.
