outsdrJust a few more thoughts.
The episode was yummy and delicious, and fully makes up for the let down last week's episode was- talk about going from one extreme to the other! So many good lines, so many good scenes. It was nice and tight and scary in the right places and not in the right places.
And Rory dies again! And Time Lords can indeed change their genders when they regenerate! The cabinet of boxes was heartbreaking.
I do wish they had gone back to an older console, but now maybe some of the fans will stop pissing their pants thinking Tennant is going to return.
The line about the river in the forest ... could it be related to River Song in some way?
This episode had so much for the hard-core fans to sink their teeth into, yet was totally approachable by someone new to the series, giving a Doctor's History 101 without boring those who already knows some of the history.
I wish more of the TARDIS interior had been shown, instead of dreary hallways. But finding Rory's corpse and the disturbing graffiti was downright, erm, disturbing. Rory is the pretty one! Bunk beds! Does the Doctor have a room? Needing to use the code telepathically to open the door. Safety mechanisms to return people to the main console ... just so much that was awesome.
