Goofy-looking, yet still menacing monsters seems to be DW's strong point, starting back with the Daleks

The Fisher King was an interesting concept and I hope they'll bring it back in the audios

I mean, it was just an alien dictator.

The first Who I remember seeing is the regeneration at the end of Caves of Androzani. Some repeat on a cable channel. I'm British, so obviously I was going to watch the revival and aside from the Eleven/Clara half season I've not stopped. Don't know why I didn't watch that one, just kind of couldn't be bothered after the last half season had been a bit crap.

I'd completely forgotten this episode and I've already forgotten the last one you reviewed. Thought they were really good at the time, though.

Nine and Rose arrive on a planet that doesn't have a North, and Nick Briggs the Doctor has to lose the accent to blend in.

I feel like I’ve seen that man before but I’m pretty sure it’s just a weird psychological thing.

Weirdly enough he puts me in mind of the Toymaker for some reason

Wellllllll, she's a woman, anyway. I don't know that she as any particular claim to nobility, but either way, it's exciting.

anyway there's probably nothing wrong with clara's fate in isolation but what cheesed a lot of people off about her was that she had a real air of being Moffat's pet character, and getting to be immortal and going off with another immortal to have adventures forever in her very own tardis is the most emphatic way he could have confirmed that idea

I don't remember if they were ever explicitly stated to be a species in the Moffat era, but I always pictured them as a very big crime family. Like when the Yakuza games mention the Dojima Clan or something; yes, calling a ship 'Slitheen' is technically simplifying it, there's non-Slitheen on there, but the Slitheen family own it and are pulling the strings.

That's absolutely what they were.

The cybus one in Pandorica is probably just because they didn't have the redesign ready, don't worry about it too much.
