On the whole, er, wow, but some major problems - RTD reusing a plot device from last year ("let's all pray link up our phones to find the Doctor") - and some really ropy CGI

Agreed on most of that, especially the death - Donna too obvious, Martha's in the TW radio thing and I expect S3/the TW miniseries, SJA S2 is filming and Jack can't die. Except I enjoyed S2 of TW. I do like that Ianto came across as the pouty bratty clingy idiot that he is, though. Janto shippers drive me insane.

Didn't you think it kind of icky like how Gwen and Ianto were Jack's two wifes waiting for him to come home? I don't even know if that's a homophobic comment but it's just an anti-schmaltz comment, grrr!

I'm amazed someone as cool and pansexual and irresistible as Captain Jack even wants to keep a Welsh fishwife and a stereotypical poofter around. ;)

BTW: I note that one of the missing planets was Calufrax, which was of course The Pirate Planet.

I spotted the name, knew it was an oldWho[4] planet, but couldn't remember offhand which one it was ;)

I've always been a Keys To Time fanboy. Probably because I was in love with Mary Tamm.

(Hence noticing that the The Stones of Blood owes a hell of a lot to The Maneater of Surrey Green in The Avengers).

I think Bernard should get his own series. Everyone is running about like headless chickens and he goes after a Dalek (or differently-corporeal Skarovian as we should say these days) with a paintball gun.
