I get you. A perfect example being the most recent episode where Graham makes a confession to The Doctor and The Doctor reacts in a way that is actually kinda understandable, but the execution of that scene came across as really clunky and I can't help blaming the writing. I don't blame Jodie and Bradley because they did the best with that scene. As I said, I even get what they were trying to do (my mum had cancer about a decade ago, I get it...it's hard to talk to someone about it) but I just don't think the show nailed it.

Meanwhile, I think they just about perfectly portrayed Gram's trauma and the Doctor being her usually socially awkward self and not knowing how to respond to Graham opening up to her. It worked for me really well. Most of the Doctor's regeneration's have either been socially awkward, have just not particularly cared about the intricacies of human emotion, or both (I'd say 13 and 11 are the awkward ones, 10 is the not care one, and 12 and 9 a bit of both). So it made complete sense to me as it was written. It felt right for the characters.

I was very bothered by that scene. I expected the Doctor to turn around once she figured out what she was going to say, but she just walked off and that was that. I love Graham but I feel that they throw him under the bus a lot.

Yeah, I thought she was just gathering her thoughts and would say something to him, even if it was something like, "I don't know what to say and I'm sorry", but she didn't and that was just kinda confusing to me.
