Class Series 1 Review #5: Brave-ish Heart

Brave-ish Heart by Patrick Ness

Brave-ish Heart is the fifth episode of the first series of Doctor Who's 5th spin off series, Class. This is the second part of a two part story that started last week, Co-Owner of a Lonely Heart.

Class is becoming quite predictable. This was a better episode though. It seems the characters don't seem that at all bothered that either petals or shadows are going to destroy the planet
