I love how they somehow made the makeup very Doctor Who, with the color choices, and the slow change over the course of the episode. While keeping it looking like a face that Jinx would paint on themselves while at a normal Jinx Monsoon show

Given how pivotal makeup can be to a Drag Queens performance as well as their character I am glad that they worked with Jinkx on designing the look of the Maestro.

Love seeing Jinkx behind the scenes & on camera. A true powerhouse of talent. Addicting to watch.

I had never seen her before the episode, but now I'm obsessed.

[@farmbrough]

It's nice to have appreciation for the excellent costume and makeup design. Too often these aspects get forgotten.

[@jasmeerlabeer4591]

Seriously, this Jinx's portrayal of the Maestro will go down as a classic villain from the whoverse. I want to see her return along with the dream lord.

[@Chalky.]

Never heard of them before this episode, but they were great as this really over the top panto level villain.

[@Hufflepuffer44]

legand of RuPauls Drag Race. the best

[@tigremalabarista3461]

Best known as being a double winner on RuPaul’s Drag Race, but Jinkx is a very skilled performer. Has been known to bring people into learning about figures such as Little Evie (Grey Gardens) and such with their performances. Plus they do know when to exaggerate and pull back on the camp, which honestly takes a lot of skill. It’s a shame folks look at their skill set and go the bigotry route instead of looking at talent, because they will miss Jinkx’s talent.

[@Ari-gp3im]

I'd never heard of her before she was announced for the role a year or so back and I had much trepidation about the character based on how she was dressed. Turned out I had nothing to worry about, that wasn't her outfit for the show and Maestro was magnificent!

[@whatupitzwinston]

Jinkx absolutely nailed this role and is one of the reasons why this ep has been my fav of the season so far. Maestros first costume is so cool with the piano keys on the suit and is my fav al so the gold rope one the last one is a nice touch, heard it took long to make that rope whoever did it did fantastic.

[@LPU_LiliPoP]

The costume designers deserve a really nice bonus for what they've done.

Panto Villain used to be a negative way of describing old Who villains, but not any more! How ironic that someone non-English gives the most hypnotic performance of it since the classic series established it, bravo!

@@chocolatepoodle6028 yeh you got it, thanks. :) I love them, and it’s not easy, there’s a fine line and it can easily go too far, whereupon it passes from scary to silly, Horns Of Nimon comes to mind, but what would the classic series be without them? Good to see it back and so perfectly done.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

I knew *Jinx* *Monsoon* by name only... had never seen a performance... only one brief interview. 'Maestro' is exactly the time of over-the-top villain that appeals to the kid in me. 💥 They're funny... but can pivot to horrifying in a flicker of an instant. I hope we get much, much more 'Maestro' in coming episodes.

[@mimiquoi7380]

So much detail in the design, I love it ! 😊

[@luvz2reed]

This is the adult version of a Disney villain. Jinx uses their face soo expertly they don't even need dialogue. Not for every style of storytelling, but perfect here.

[@Guitarbarella]

Was right up there with closes cruella, but better coz it was more unpredictable. I thought it was one of the best performances I’ve seen in ages let alone dr who.

[@MadHatterDJ-]

New Jinkx fan here, brilliant. Hope we see more of the character.

[@Anzy.99]

Now I want to know EVERYTHING about Maestro. The perfect little creature, so gorgeous, so mean, very scary and I can't take my eyes out of them.

[@gearmachine_4885]

I enjoyed the last look the most, because it was more focused and actually felt like a serious villian compared to the evil over the top drag look earlier that episode.

[@stacygail1893]

My favorite villain since Davros! Maestro was so delightfully insane and just so *different,* it was easy to believe they came from outside of our familiar universe. Well done, Jinkx Monsoon and the writers of Dr. Who!❤

[@EXPLOREWITHTYLER]

My favourite villain so far for the new series.

[@grantryder352]

Maestro's last makeup look and mannerisms kind of gave me withdrawal vibes. Like in the earlier looks they were eating fat and happy and actively consuming, but by the last one, the well has started to dry. Rubes was the LAST human with music in her heart. It felt like Maestro was gunning for that last hit.

[@denisestyx2052]

That was fascinating, details that I was never going to notice, but it's nice that they had considered them in designing their look.

[@laurabedford5095]

Excellent job jinx

[@johnclay7644]

concise behind the scenes

[@TeeJayDesastron]

I love over the top villains. Any character can be written as a villain by simply giving the character a motive and letting them do evil actions, but that doesn't make them a good villain. A good villain needs charisma and a certain dominance on stage. Only then can they be truly entertaining. As for Doctor Who the Master would be a great example particularly when the Master was Missy. The Toymaker is another great and more recent example. The reason why those characters work are not only their intelligence and elaborate plans but first and foremost their flair. They are fun to watch and personally I don't really want them to be gone for good since when they are still out there one can wonder what else they might be up to, even if they never return for real. And now we have Maestro....... I love the character. Maestro is funny and at the same time very threatening, all the while looking fantastic. (This was a very interesting insight, by the way.) They are dominiering the scene....... and that's while playing against this particular version of the Doctor. Well, I hope for sure we haven't seen the last of them...... and I believe we have not, given that Henry Arbinger could be seen at the end of the episode. Well, we will have to wait and see. Anyways, a great character, a great episode. I love it.

[@TheLegitAlpha]

Being over the top is extremely fitting, given their ties to music.

It’s only been four months since the last episode before these two.

[@AndrewChapman]

​@DrWhoFanJ I'm sure ecnalms meant not watched it in a long time personally. Like not watched it for more than 4 months. Maybe years? Perhaps you should've asked how long it's been since ecnalms last watched the show instead of jumping to conclusion.

[@ChiKeytatiOon]

I love Jinx Monsoon and Doctor Who. Ngl, wasn't feeling the casting news when I found out coz I didn't want to be campy campy but she did an AMAZING job and seemed perfect for the role. Sucks no Beatles music made it but I'm sure that would've cost a fortune.

[@Guitarbarella]

She was a standout, I had no idea who she was but at first I was trying to work out if she was the devil but super creepy and fabulous at same time..reminded me of Close’s cruella but more suspenseful coz you had no clue what was gunna happen next.
