Doctor Who... Page 647

Very good episode. Very intriguing.

Yeah, I enjoyed that, but will wait to see how the story is resolved before giving the thumbs up.

Hey Timbo what do girls say to you on dates?

Is the whole series co-produced with BBC America or just the two opening episodes?

It was unnerving seeing that at the end of the episode.

I wasn't sure if that had been there for a while, but I guess it's new.

Who wrote this episode?

I liked when River Song was talking about the pain of the Doctor knowing her less & less as her timeline continues.
She hasn't even seen the Angels yet, or the Pandorica. or that bloke from the League of Gentleman.
The Doctor will soon have more spoilers than she does.

I wonder if they're setting more eps in America this season. It wasn't as jarring as it usually is.

Remember that rubbish Dalek one from a few years back, with the comedy accents? Good lord.

Great episode, can't wait for the next episode.

The Laurel and Hardy bit was funny and cute.

I've read some more of his blog, Griff; he really, really hates new Who to a strangely mental degree.

A mental Doctor Who fan? Say it ain't so! :O

It's easy to pick holes if you search enough especially when you watched Old Who in your time, and have a set, personal idea of what Who should be, however rubbish it was at times anyway.

I was trying my best not to be too cynical this series (It's the schmaltz I tend to find disagreeable)

So far, so very good
Even if the end of the two parter is a bit disappointing, I like what they did today, with a good ending it could be one of the top 5 eps of new who.

He seems to have written a fair bag of Who novels in his time, eight or so. I'm tempted to read one out of curiosity.

There's a strange amount of arrogance, really, in his assertion that almost EVERYTHING in new Who is wrong; if only they'd ask his opinion first-! Such a severe, over the top opion does become quite entertaining to read, though.

I'm sure I've probably read some of his stuff, he's familiar name from Who fandom.

I'm sure the lack of sonic screwdriver action this episode will please some on here! I don't think he whipped it out once.
