As it is a BBC program, you get used to the ultra liberal, PC undertones of this show. Mostly it is fine, and you can put it to the back of your mind, and enjoy the episode, mostly. Though with this one, as with many proper historical dramas the BBC have done, history is being rewritten in order to accommodate their liberal narrative. Bill says about her colour after coming out of the Tardis in 1800's London, and slavery was still around, I thought, wow, they never mention colour, I'm impressed. Then as they were walking, we see plenty of black faces, fine, though dressed in fine clothes and top hats, lovely dresses and parasols, and many black British Soldiers as well. Bill says it's a lot more black than she thought, when the Doctor says the past has been Whitewashed! Ah, righty oh then. History being changed to suit today's liberal attitude. Poor episode, though it was tainted for me anyway.
