I'm with Eric on this one.  Missy felt like a very real threat.  Not a cartoon, not a cardboard cut-out villain, not comic relief. Actual, serious danger.  There were depths to her performance that have been non-existent in the past. 

The graveyard scene was particularly amazing.  She was equal parts wanting to ruin him and wanting to be with him.  Very eery to say the least.  This scene may have been the finest moment of the season;

Armies are for people who think they're right. And nobody thinks they're righter than you. Give a good man firepower, and he'll never run out of people to kill.


... All those people suffering in the Dalek camps? Now you can save them. All those bad guys winning all the wars? Go and get the good guys back.

....You will, because you don't have a choice. There's only way you can stop these clouds from opening up and killing all your little pets down here. Conquer the universe, Mister President. Show a bad girl how it's done.

I'm going to watch it again tonight. This has put me in the mood.  Not that i need much of a push to watch Missy.

Now...Say.  Something.  Nice.
