Yeah, it's so frustrating to me too! Most all of what we know about them are in one off episodes that are never mentioned again, or in vague non continuous comments. I thought the moment between Yas and Graham was nice, but just saying something is true doesn't mean anything when we don't see the characters back it up! I loved that Yas jumped in the barrier and tried to stop the Doctor, but it was so disheartening to see it cut off by the Doctor just shrugging her off. Bah, it just don't get what they're trying to do with that.

I always forget that Broadchurch is written by Chibnall, I only watched the first season but the nuances and characterization compared to Doctor Who is so drastic that I'm half convinced someone else ghostwrote it, not really but, ugh. The pacing on the shows are completely different but I don't why they couldn't have Doctor Who have a plot the developed over the season rather than what they did,

Oh my gosh in Spyfall part 2 when all the companions were getting turned into those creatures (I mean, we still don't know what those are?!! I assume cybermen but they don't even mention it? Or where the Master was when they kidnapped him?), I thought for a brief yet glorious moment that we were going to get a season with the two historical figures as companions with a season long arc of trying to get the original companions back.

Gah, I envy myself in that moment.

That's my big problem with Chibnall. I didn't really like his Doctor Who episodes but I thought that anyone who can write Broadchurch will at the very least be a competent showrunner. That's why these past two seasons have been genuinely confusing to me. I genuinely have to ask if he's even trying at this point.
