Well that was pretty bloody splendid!

This series of Doctor Who just goes from strength to strength, reminding me more and more of old Who - only better *  If next week's outing is even half as good as the trailer, it's going to be spectacular.

And who didn't give a little piggie squeal of joy when the Doctor's 'papers' had a picture of One? I know I did, quite startled the cat.

*though I can't help thinking the estimable Toby 'Being Human' Whithouse has read Jonathan Strange. Just a feeling. ;o)

Sudden Unexpected One is always an occasion for joy.

I know! I love it so much it's like the moff has taken the best of both Who's and mixed it up to make this new series.

And yes I squeed too :)

And how is Basment cat?

It feels like my show again.

ETA: Basement cat is fine, his usual self, having something of an ongoing war of attrition with next door's cat that's keeping him pretty occupied.

I think you've put your finger on it, actually. I keep finding myself thinking "if only the last few seasons had been like this"... it's still shiny and overstyled, but he's managed to put the fun back. Bless his little cotton socks.
