8 Doctor Who Episodes Ruined By Their Endings

Resolution is easily one of the better episodes in the lacklustre Series 11, but it isn't without its flaws, and the ending is a big one.

The plot of the episode centres around an immensely powerful lone Dalek, which is capable of possessing the bodies of humans in order to remain undetected. This thing is an absolute monster - in one scene, it single-handedly takes down a small army of trigger-happy soldiers with apparent ease - but frustratingly, the ending does a complete 180 on its portrayal, making it seem quite weak and incompetent.

Then - to make things worse - the Doctor defeats it by simply sticking microwave components to its casing. Right.

The episode seemed to be building to a much more interesting and difficult confrontation between the Doctor and the Dalek, but the confrontation we did get was laughable, completely stripping the Dalek of its established badass status.
