Debut of the teen spinoff to "Doctor Who: Peter Capaldi" to be entitled "Class" is coming soon and reviews have claimed that there could be a lot of the "Doctor Who" universe in BBC as the last season of the original season premieres this weekend.

Capaldi has now been considered as a global phenomenon, as it is what the show has become at this point while they are on air and they will definitely not be forgotten. Deadline recently reported that even though "Class" had a touch of Capaldi, some still believe it was quite lost in time and space.

There have been reports claiming that it did not get much of the concept of its predecessor, and often ends up unsmooth in many ways. However, these results might just be in the beginning and could be fixed as the series continues. The avid fans of "Doctor Who" should be able to recognize how significant the role of the fictional Coal Hill School is in the Time Lord series, although now named as the Coal Hill Academy.

Unfortunately for "Class," it did not grasp the ensemble series of its own on the school that sits on an interdimensional riff made a lot of sense and had great potential, as reported by IMDB. However, they do make up for it in the later episodes, which got them back on the edge of the storyline all in all. The series does improve over time, and it is still highly accepted and appreciated by the "Doctor Who" fans. It has also been noted when Capaldi's doctor said in one of his lectures during the opener for season 10 of the show, that "The passage of time is an illusion, and life is the magician."

Thus, it has been recognized that Capaldi's time in "Doctor Who" was so good and classy; and that he will definitely be missed for a long time.
