This was everything it promised to be and better. Well worth the year-long wait.
"I came back for you" - adorable. Just that one little line. And then "...all of you". Jack remembers they're not alone.
The bit with Gwen was a little disconcerting, but oh well.
The Jack/John banter was brilliant. This season looks a lot funnier already, and we need a break from the death death angst.
Where on earth did the Owen/Tosh thing come from?! I know that Tosh fancies Owen, but why is he dropping these huge anvil-like hints?
The Date scene. I knew it was coming. I had absolutely no idea it would be like that. Ianto all...aloof and trying to hold it together. Jack being really nervous and sweet and *sigh*. It was perfect. It was real. Loved it.
Ianto was so competent! All episode! Hailing the taxi. Finding everyone. Stopwatch love. I love Ianto. And his deadpan humour is brilliant.
Next week's trailer - "The world is ending. Let's all have sex." "And I thought the end of the world couldn't get any worse."
This season is going to be amazing!
