The miserable face of Harry Saxon disapproves of this episode.

Full of non-sequiturs, cliches, and totally predictable. RTD should never be allowed to write another. 3/10. And two of those marks are for the two rings in the last 60 seconds.

Excellent, excellent stuff and quite possibly the single greatest Doctor Who cliffhanger EVAR

The twist with Jack is going to set the Outpost Gallifrey forums on fire as fan fights fan. Seriously. Some of those guys are going to go batshit mental :)

Thought it was a bit crap, myself. Mind you, five fantastic episodes in a row is a good run. I suppose we were overdue for a rubbish one.

Turning the Doctor into Gollum was a bit of a low-point.

And hasn't he already been on the Titanic in his previous incarnation?

Twice if you read the books :) Mind you the christmas episode title is "Voyage of the Damned" and it's poking through the Tardis console room so it might not be what we expect.

Most enjoyable with everything left open for them to revisit when they run dry of ideas and a few little leitmotifs wrapped up for the continuity spotters. Everyone's happy. Except the Master,
who is dead
. Or is he? Or is he?

It had some good moments, it had some great moments, but at some point I got really disgusted at what happened and I just wanted it to end...

I suddenly realised I was watching the worst episode of Who I've ever seen, and it kept going on and on. I've had many 'Is the episode over yet?' moments with the last couple of episodes, but never a 'I want to zap to another channel because it is so bad' moment. I did now :(

A horrible way to end this series :evil:

Doesn't this mean that most of the population of the UK are trapped in mega-telepathic-love for a non-existant Harry Saxon because of the Archangel network?

(He built the network way before he started the TARDIS' P.M.)

I thought that was a bit dodgy. After all isn't the inside of the Tardis supposed to be in a different universe than the outside? So some 1910s steamer could hit it and crush the exterior but certainly not poke through to the inside. :?

Still this is Doctor Who, where they can get away with stuff like this, not Star Trek. :P
