Wow.... how about
that for an episode....?
I thought Suranne Jones was spectactular and honestly felt a bit a sentimental myself towards the end when the Doctor started welling up (Matt Smith taking another step waaaaay beyond David Tennant and towards Tom B as the best Doctor).
What a fantastic examination of the most important relationship in the whole series - how come no-one had ever thought of that before in the last 40-odd years??
AND, it speaks volumes that Moffat was big enough to let someone else handle it. Can you imagine RTD subbing an episode that big out to someone else - even if it was Neil Gaiman?
Terrific stuff - only a few more eps to go before the mid season break, the summer's going to feel very long indeed
*EDIT* Oh, and Amy's line "Did you wish
really hard?" Must surely be a contender for quote for the year!!
