Brilliant!

I liked this episode of DR.WHO better than the season opener.


Just because of the concept of the Tardis as a woman, and her Victorian dress was just such a nice touch, I just wished that we hadn't seen the transfer glow in the beginning so it could have been a surprise ... now, Amy's little horror escapades in the halls didn't quite gell, particularly the writing on the walls, but yeah, I get that's it's supposed to be what she is afraid of.

Nice to see Rory as pretty, and that as a nurse it was difficult to watch someone die, and can the River referred to be anything but River Song?

The TARDIS as a woman was explored in the books. It's fun to see Gaiman refer to them and to the originals.

Agreed, good episode wth great writing (unsurprisingly). I didn't even know 'the Doctor stole the TARDIS' was canon until my other half - who is old as the hills and remembers William Hartnell - told me.

And I liked that she said she stole him. ;D

Was nice to see a bit of married bickering 'you're not too reliable'

Ditto. Thought there were some very clever bits. Especially liked the line about humans being so much bigger on the inside.

Wasn't it though? It was so good I watched it twice. I like the throwback too to the David Tennant Dr. Who control room. And to see the Doctor's brief moment of guilt of having perhaps killed all the Time Lords was good too.

I am so looking forward to seeing more of the backstory about the Doctor and River.
