Always pleasure to get your insights!<br /><br />Regarding the Doctor's rage, I suspect he's (in main) didn't lose it is that I suspect that's yet to come...<br /><br />And as for whether I was in the back patting camp, well that will be revealed in the coming spoiler zone ;)Jim Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834711093704256462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8670069258372374568.post-82899161576538798972011-06-04T21:10:23.379+01:002011-06-04T21:10:23.379+01:00Good non spoiler review sir.

And in keeping with the non spoiler let me say that I was indeed patting myself on the back and yet feeling somewhat underwhelmed by the revelation.<br /><br />The reveal was well handled and Katie, my eldest who was 7 yesterday, went to bed exactly how I'd imagine thousands of kids were... Mulling over the implications of the revelation both in the past and the future. So that said all things considered the episode was a great success.<br /><br />My only real quibble, as far as such things go, was that, given the rage the doctor is supposedly capable of and the implication that if he ever does get pushed over the edge then god help the universe. The Doctor, baring one notable scene which I'll keep spoiler free, seems to be the same ol same ol and as such the dramatic thrust of The Doctor going to the extreme, to protect those he loves was never fulfilled. Whether that is down to direction, writing or Matt Smiths performance is up or debate. However, I would say that in the uncompromising vengeance stakes, the 10th Doctors actions at the end of Family of Blood two parter seemed more in keeping with what I was expecting.<br /><br />However, despite this it was a very cool mid season cliff hanger and proof that Moffat knows how to juggle and tease a good story line for a good long time. <br /><br />I look forward to your spoiler filled review, Jim.Lee Medcalfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06903719569848396593noreply@blogger.com
