This is more like it. Top notch Who action, even if I'm not quite sure why fishboy exploded the way he did :/

I found it to be a bit rushed and not explained very well with many scenes missing. In the video I downloaded before the show was aired, it seemed that many scenes have been deleted such as how the Dr comes back from the grave (so to speak) and Amy gets his heart pumping again. The scene of what happens to all the fish creatures at the bottom of Vanice was never explored though.

I'd assume the fish die off with nobody around to feed them. C'est la vie, as the doctor seemed to be viewing it.

That and the lack of any females for them.

I sort of like Rory but I don't want him to be another Mickey. I also agree with how it was a bit rushed, it felt that way, but I still really enjoyed the episode.

Also, link to that video you watched Tanubi?

I have a feeling poor Rory will find out that he really can't compare to the Doctor.

I'm Bad I'm starting to pair Amy with the New Doctor. Not that I still don't love Rose/Doctor. heart

I loved it. I don't think it felt rushed until around the end.

I think if there was a problem, it was in that ludicrous explanation they gave for why the aliens just so 'happened' to come across as vampires. If their perception filters fooled the brain into thinking it saw something different why did they still look like that when nobody was around? And why would the Countess' own species think she was a human? I didn't really like that as an answer.

But, for once, I couldn't give a toss. It didnt exactly harm the quality of the episode =D

I agree. However many similar questions that arise with EVERY episode of Doctor Who, they never really take away from the overall quality.

@Affettuoso The link was for Torrent download files and was removed when the series started to make way for newer files from the aired show, also too many people complained about piracy. I know a few other people in the guild downloaded other torrents so I would be in hopes of them handing you a link, I think C0der had one and I know Michael Jacksons Corpse downloaded the torrents, too.

I am also a little erked at how her perception filter showed that her clothes was just part of some holo port to the brain but in the end she takes them all off and throws them away like they are real. The scene could of been much more epic with cloths vanishing into thin air as they left the hold of her filter but none of the girls had these and yet the doctor proved they was under a perception filter. I tried to like it and there was a few good points to it but everytime I started to get into it something would rear it's ugly head and tell me something that made no sense at all.

I love the part where the doctor jumps out of the cake though, that part of life has never been shown before in who-land so it's nice to see it hit a more everyday tone.

I'm pretty sure the doctor's made it abundantly clear on multiple occasions he just doesn't 'do' everyday.

Hence his selecting the wrong cake the first time round, presumably >.>

It has shown everyday life before and how the doctor deals with it such as that top up card scene. I do like that it's now been moved to another level even if it is just for one scene in the entire show, who knew they had stag do's with strippers in Wholand.

Big problem has come from the last two episodes though acroding to the news. Mothers complained because it is supposed to be safe for children as SM did state it was for them but the last two have shown a more adult element that betrayed the child friendly story set in the bulk of the episode.

Ah, well I was just curious because I hadn't heard of that and/or seen it.
