Doctor Who - A Good Man Goes to War

That was great fun, and was a suitably climactic mid-season finale to tide us over until the Doctor returns in the excellently titled Let's Kill Hitler!

I liked the steampunk lesbian duo (my Mum phoned at that point so I missed the bit about the Silurian having eaten Jack the Ripper, but thankfully picked up on it during Confidential) and I loved the Sontaran nurse. He got all the best lines, I think. I was very pleased to see the return of the space spitfires, although they were in it all-too briefly.

I liked the revelation about River, although it's one of the more popular theories that's been doing the rounds for the past year, so it wasn't entirely unexpected. Still, it made sense and I look forward to Amy and Rory disapproving of the fact that the Doctor appears to have been intimate with their daughter!

Great stuff, and I can't wait to see how all this is going to wrap up. We still don't know what's going on with the Silents, the girl in the space suit or the Doctor's death. There's quite a lot of explaining to pack into the remaining six episodes, and if this is just a taste of what we can expect from the season finale, it should be a belter.
