YMMV / Doctor Who S37 E6 "Demons of the Punjab"

• Awesome Music: The rather haunting Indian-style rendition of the theme tune used for the credits, using male vocals in place of the typical synth riff to great effect.
• Les Yay: When the Doctor spouts off a list of things that could happen should Yaz interfere with known events, she makes an interesting addition to the one where Yaz could get herself erased from the timeline.

  The Doctor: "We can't have a universe with no Yaz."

• Unintentionally Sympathetic: Umbreen's calling Yaz her favourite granddaughter is Played for Laughs, but Sonya's hurt reaction is anything but.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic:
  • The Thijarians do absolutely nothing to dispel their initial villainous appearance, at one point telling the Doctor that they will "stand over [all] your corpses". While not directly a death threat, it's incredibly easy to interpret it as such. In addition, when Pram directly asks them what they're there for, the Thijarians don't answer him at all. And when the Doctor starts threatening them and telling them to leave, they again don't simply tell her why they're there.
  • The Doctor doesn't get off light either. When she first sees the aliens, she judges them by their species and assumes them to be guilty. She's later shown to be wrong, not because these Thijarians are different and don't represent their race, but because they as a species are now grievers. In other words, her prejudice wasn't wrong, but out of date instead.
