Good good. Your sacrifice will not go unnoticed. Well, actually, it sort of will, but, you know.
It seems to me the easy thing to do here is to take SPOILERS out of the title of this thread, since it was originally referring to people who had seen the first episode before its official release.
Very much enjoyed this one. I'm finding that the scenes seem to last a little too long, or at least longer than one expects,. I'm wondering whether this is connected to the way that we are in this country used to 45-minute sci-fi series being based around advert breaks that we don't see...
Ecclestone seemed to be on good form, and I liked his interaction with Nancy. Having carefully avoided the "Next week" message, I'm hoping (and expecting) that she will have a further part to play. Jack would make a terrible nemesis - he's a gag: the glamorous, buccaneering, gadget-heavy but somewhat amoral time traveller that the Doctor isn't.
Elsewhere, I didn't pick up on the empty eyes bit - what was the effect? I'm also a bit disappointed by another use of POV. Doing this removes exteriority, and undermines the alienation - if we can see how they perceive the world, we find them less unheimlich, IMHO.
Jack's coat's very nice, though. |
