His CLONED DAUGHTER did that, but I was referring to the Susan, who was the grand daughter as seen with the first doctor.

Oh right, sorry, I have no idea about that.

Wasn't she killed?

If so, so what. Clara has already died twice.

I thought she was killed in a Paul McGann (sp?) audio adventure. I could be wrong though.

Pwned.

Much as I disliked the excessive levity of 1000 Years of Hating the French it was full of corrections of such popular misconceptions, and therefore is recommended reading.

People who expect Paul mcgann audio adventures seriously

Have the most delightful sense of self confidence

Only thing of any note was the revelation that Warwick Davies can act.
It was a rare treat to see him not mugging to the camera under the direction of the omni-present Gervais.
Plot rushed, as usual, with now de rigeur muffed ending.

And I don't particularly want to know who Clara is, just when she's going.

And where she lives.

I would take this if it made sense.

I don't think she was killed off in an audio, no.

Oh, I thought her son was (Alex was it?) and I thought she died in the same episode.

I had a check and didn't see any mention; but then she may have done in some episode. They also did 'What If' style ones, and it could have happened in one of those alternate universe ones. I'm not sure, I'd be very surprised if they had though. Seems a bit much!

Yeah, I've just checked the episode (To The Death} online and can't find any mention of it either. Must be mistaken.

Having read supposed spoilers for next weeks episode, I don't think she is Susan but it does SOUND like a top notch episode.

Hopefully moffat is back to his best.

This will be the first one he's written himself since the half-series opener.

On first watch, this was a disappointing episode. Too much squashed into too little. Nightmare was there in the title, but there was a distinct lack of it on screen. Terrible kids, acting terribly, with terrible lines. One, whilst being kidnapped by a killer monster screamed 'I hate you!' at it. I hate you...at a Cyberman. Hopeless.

I saw Warick Davies getting a lot of praise, but I thought he was weak; far too underplayed, he was stilted.

I need to watch it again, because I think the fact it had such a big name writing it raised expectations too high; now that's out of the way, I'll be able to watch the episode on its own terms.

On first watch, it's a five out of ten for this Who nut.
