I'm ridiculously excited about this season. I'll be the first to admit that Series 3 left me a wee disappointed, but I couldn't find a way to like Freema. It wasn't just the character but the actress. I'm looking forward to the new companion and hopefully RTD won't keep up his Joss Whedon school of thought in this series. Because really, I don't think I want to deal with the BtVS style angst Joss felt was necessary.
Was anyone else thinking, "No Doctor, throwing a sonic pen in the bin isn't the smart plan." I get that it wasn't the most shocking part of the episode (OH MY GOD ROSE) but I can't help but think it's going to be a big issue later.
