A nice simple BUS story that's set on a submarine with a great reintroduction of the ice warriors with great performances from Matt Smith and Jenna Coleman.

Cold War has some moments when it could have been good, with a nice early plot twist and an interesting design for the Ice Warriors. However, the story has so many pointless and uninspired moments that the story isn't bad, but rather it's forgetable. The presence of David Warner is wasted here as his character is given little to do, and the plot leads to a bit of anti-climax.
