I really wish I could come up with intelligent and meaningful reviews of Doctor Who


Stephen Moffat has been king of Doctor Who writers ever since Blink so I was really looking forward to this episode.

It did not disappoint.

It was creepy, not at scary as Blink, but creepy enough for it to be exciting.

I have loved Alex Kingston since she was in Moll Flanders many years ago so I'm thrilled to see her on TV again. Can't wait to see what the story with her and The Doctor is.

Donna can't be dead obviously because isn't there supposed to be an episode at the end with her, Martha and Rose? Anyway, so not buying it.

So, yup, liked it. So much better than The Unicorn and The Wasp or whatever that crap was the week before last

The computer (Cal) said it saved everyone, but there were no survivors.

She archived them as they went through the teleporter, saving them from the shadows

It just made sense, especially once her face was on the avatar thingy

LOL, no I don't think that!




But, didn't the meta-ness of the show bug you a bit? I felt like any moment we were going to have The Doctor look at the camera and wink. But I might just be sore because I hate waiting for two-parters.

I didn't find it overly meta. What do you mean?

I'm tired, that might not be the word I'm looking for. I mean the ep referenced being a tv show a lot. Sorry, might just be me.
