I just finished watching it..i htought it was pretty spiffy... i loved the costuming as well.. i loved the way the tick-tock men looked... i really thought the reveal of why her was great...its questioned and never revealed to the Doctor and crew but we know... I've been avoiding the discussion about the Doctor and sexuality, I dont' really think it serves a purpose, so what if he's a sexual being or an asexual one.

The thing that sort of had me going "huhn?" was the fact that he would expect her to be there with a bag packed. Even the first two trips through the fireplace several months had gone by. How much time do you think could have passed in the course of a few minutes back on this side. It seems unrealistic to expect her to be there waiting..

Agreed in full.

Also agreed.

Now this is what I've been waiting for. I'll do my own review tomorrow I think, but WOW great episode. Just finished watching it with my son. I actually LOVED the Dr arriving on a White Charger and the fake drunk scene so SOOO doctor-confusing-the-enemy. 9/10. Thought Mickey and Rose were great too, Mickey really enjoying rolling around on a starship with a big gun. Very Mary Jane indeed. (who wouldn't want to do just that?)

Roll on Cybermen (as you say).

And those were the two things I disliked the most as too OTT.

Mickey was great. And I didn't hate Rose this week.

> Roll on Cybermen (as you say).

Amen to that.
