Thought-provoking. Slap on the hand to all of us: we're <i>watching it wrong</i>.<br /><br />This really misfired spectacularly because of the obvious U-turn at the end, making all the emotional buildup twang like a broken guitar string, but we can't blame Moffat for that, we guess. They can't kill her off now, though, can they? It would be horribly bathetic after this. <br />The Androzani Teamhttp://www.androzani.comnoreply@blogger.com
