She handles the humor and lightheartedness of the character well enough, but when she tries to swing into dark/moody/angry she’s about as intimidating as a growling corgi puppy.
I mean, in merely one-third of an episode, Jo Martin completely blew her out of the water as the Doctor in terms of sheer presence.

Now, they’re not even a Time Lord!

Well if you think about it, The Doctor is now the original Time Lord.
Yeah, Susan or The Master should have been the Timeless Child. The revelation certainly would have pushed Master off the deep end mentally. Given his inferiority complex to The Doctor has always been an underlying factor to his character. Ultimately though, I find this the least appealing Master since Eric Roberts. The fact he even wore a vague Purple and Green "Joker" suit in the finale really put my back up. In terms of Head Canon, I'd even put this Master before Derek Jacobi. He certainly isn't post-Missy, in his mentality.

That's not how genetics work. One species splicing a few chromosomes into their own from another, does not make the former species retroactively the same thing as the latter. This Timeless Child would still have the other 99% of their genes different from the Shibogans(sp?).

Anyone else here has heard those or are people here purely into the TV show (which I've long given up on since the Moffat era, prefering to go back and watch Classic serials wherever I can)?
