The current writers can learn a lot from that. Or take a break, as others have suggested.
I really do like Peter Capaldi as the Doctor, however!

Yes, I took advantage of watching the old DW's on iview. Much better drama than today's. I do prefer Capaldi to the more recent reloads as well. I thought "flatline" was the best of the season. Some of the seasons episodes were incredibly dumb.
