That scene at the end with Celia Imrie on the floor, having been reduced to a child asking for her parents was probably the most chilling part of the episode for me.
I totally agree. That bit was brilliant. Does it mean that this 'client' approached her at that age? I reckon we're going to see more of this client.
I thought it was a good episode, especially after the Christmas special, which was pretty much just advertising the BBC's support for homosexuality then the rest trying to appeal to ten year-olds.
Was a bit funny that one of the masterminds of this organisation which could hack into peoples' brains turned out to be a plumber.
- The Great Intelligence in this episode reminded a lot of the Jagrafess from Series 1 in Satellite Five with the whole controlling and caring thing. - The 'go and away and come back for tea' reminded me of when he convinced Rose to go with him in series 1. Ok, so he might repeat himself a lot, but it seems a very similar pattern, young girl goes(or assuming goes) because she can return without any time having passed.
Wasn't a fan of the new theme or introduction sequence either. Just preferred the old ones, they fitted the show better I feel. Also, next episode from the 'next time' seemed to remind me of The Fires of Pompeii. Will reserve judgement until I see it though.
Watching old episodes from Series 2 and realising that although the new series is good, it doesn't quite have the same impact as the 10th Doctor series did... I hate to admit it because I love the show more than anything. However, it should get increasingly better as it builds up to the 50th anniversary. I'm always an optimist
I really enjoyed it, guessing the story arc for this series is "who is clara" and "what is the great intelligence" (after all that was the christmas episode as well)
