New Doctor Who Discussion

[TygerBright]

it made me laugh (overconfidence, this and a small screw driver. I'm sorted... you're from Holland, like me? ), cry (Vincent&Amy, Vincent at the Musee D'Orsay), and gave me the desire to get out my brushes and paint... bit like Armitage's Monet. And wonder - had Van Gogh known how famous he would be one day, would it have changed his art? If only for one more year? Or would he have lived another 10?
Tony Curran is a wonderful, inspired bit of casting, and oh so inspiring too. Monster was a bit .. meh. As if just added as an afterthought.. oh, it's Doctor Who, we have to have alien monsters, but let's not make it too bad, just blind. Poor thing. Not its fault.. Yeah, well... and they're probably saving the SFX money for the season finale.
I actually quite liked the episode, if rather for its historic 'value' and the 'little' details, scenes and interactions rather than the plot. And I bet it won't be long before Amy 'remembers' Rory. The Doctor will soon give it away, guilt's making him negligent.
However, if Nitrus is right in saying that the teaser is often more interesting than the episode I'm not sure I want to watch next week's all that eagerly...
