Despite being a controversial and divisive incarnation of the Doctors longstanding archenemy and childhood friend, the Master, Missy was a hit with a large portion of the fanbase who will be delighted to see the self-proclaimed Queen of Evil back to menace the Twelfth Doctor.

While this was the Master's initial purpose in the Jon Pertwee era, in which he popped up in a long succession of stories after his initial appearance, a number of the series in which the character has appeared time and time again have been met with mixed reviews.
