A pot of coffee, twelve Jammie Dodgers and a fez.
6x00 A Christmas Carol
Most Christmas-y Christmas special EVAH.
And the funniest one, too. THE FEZ IS BACK. I think the moment when my brain actually imploded from supressed* laughter was the one when I realised Amy and Rory were not coming straight from a fancy dress party as I'd originally assumed. Don't ask me what I'm thinking with now because my brain's still toast. Seriously, when I close my eyes I see the Doctor tumbling out of the fireplace or driving a shark-drawn carriage.
This was possibly the most stupid and funny Christmas-themed TV programme I've ever seen and I've just watched Hogfather for the fourth time or so.
And she was singing to the fish. SINGING TO THE FISH. The fish made my day. Along with the steampunk 19th century. The only problem I had was with the stupid shiny spaceship which looked awfully out of place. You get into a Dickens-y Christmas mood with London and Christmas trees and plum puddings and frock coats and flying fish illuminated by gas lamps and bang, it's Star Trek. The black chap with the eye-thingimajiggy was totally Geordi Laforge.
And Michael Gambon was brilliant.
By the way, you're not telling me it was really the girl singing? Her singing voice was totally different from her speech voice, but the Internetz say she is in fact a singer.
I tip my hat to the visual effects department.
And I shan't forget to say yay 'cos Darvill's got his well-deserved promotion to the opening titles. Been looking forward to that since Vampires in Venice.
Er, sorry for the lack of coherence in the entry.
Teaser rules. Though I'm dreading the ominous "game-changing cliffhanger," that can't be a good thing. But the Neil Gaiman-penned episode is fast approaching. And the Ood are back. I wonder what new monsters will there be. A sofa that eats children?
What the hell is this, anyways? First I thought it was an Ood, but there seems to be a lack of tentacles on its face.
*Don't get me wrong, I've got no consideration towards my neighbours or anything. I just had to silence myself 'cos I was laughing so hard I couldn't hear half of what they were saying.
