New Doctor Who Discussion

[JHyde]

Fantastic and strangely sad episode from a writer who I have never really liked (Simon Nye) but who came good on this episode, on this show.

Toby Jones was wonderful as the Dream Lord and I loved how they made the monster come from within the Doctor. Very appropriate.

I love the Combi! I have always wanted one. That was a very sad scene, the one where the Doctor was trying to pick up as many people as he could and there were others running who couldn't keep up.

I loved the Rory/Amy denouement and so we already have a different dynamic from Mickey/Rose. Rose was always a little bit selfish, I think, much as I liked the character. Amy isn't the same person and I think this episode told us a lot about her.

Plus, her outfit in the TARDIS was really cool. The one with the blazer, not the poncho
