Yep, I do.
That's why I like to encourage people!:)
It reminds me of a comedy horror story called 'The Fat Thing' about a monster that became a serial killer of people with the same names as nursery rhyme characters.
For example :
Little Jack Horner ,
Sat in his corner,
Eyeing his guest on the sly,
The Fat Thing had found him,
It mashed him and ground him
And put what was left in a pie.

Or
Old Mother Hubbard,
Went to the cupboard,
To get her poor dog a bone.
The The Fat Thing was there,
All skin and no hair,
And Old Mother Hubbard got done.

And
Little Bo Beep
Had lost her sheep,
The Fat Thing it followed behind her.
It trailed her home,
To where she lived all alone,
And proceeded to mash her and grind her.

And the stories classic line :
The Fat Thing was "somewhere in the central London system, cleverly disguised as central London sewage."
Mary had a little lamb,
She tied it to a pylon;
A 1000 volts shot up its rear,
And turned its fleece to nylon!

Glad you liked it
She was the second deaf actor in Doctor Who, but the first to use signing. I loved that the Doctor had dumped signing from his mind and replaced it with semaphore.
I like the cards too. One of them referenced dropping off Sarah Jane in Aberdeen !
There's lots more to come of the sonic shades :(
I want to kiss it to death!
A great monster, but not used enough, and how lucky that the desert living monster was conveniently next to a dam that could be broken!
The two bootstrap paradoxes, Beethoven and the story were great, the idea of time travel used properly.(and in reality why it's impossible).
I like the guitar version of the theme tune, but still not sure about the guitar as a prop.His speaker in the Tardis is from Magpie Electrics as seen in "The Idiot's Lantern" and the "clockwork squirrel" the Doctor mentioned previously is sat next to it!
Clara is becoming the Doctor, this is important in the season arc.
Good stuff!!!
Maisie Williams from Game of Thrones next!
Enjoy!
Great comments! Really helpful and interesting. You pointed out some things that I definitely missed! I'll be paying closer attention the second time around:)

Off to pick up my other two squirts from school. Have a good night!

As a real fan boy/ girl thing, the spaceship that was piloted by the Tivolian and contained the Fisher King belonged to the alien race who defeated the Fisher King's people and liberated Tivoli and after the Tivolian's annoyed them so much, conquered them themselves. This race were the Arcateenians , who appeared in The very first Sarah Jane Adventure and a Torchwood episode featured them.
latest

From Arcateen V they are mentioned in a couple of other Torchwoods and SJAs, but never before in Doctor Who.

Also, I'm giving David Tennant a try. Rose Tyler helps the transition some but I don't know what I'll do when she's gone as well. Hopefully by then I'll be too invested to stop, and watch out of...duty?...commitment? hmmm
Hurrahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
'The Christmas Invasion' is brilliant but watch the prequel from'Children in Need' first. This is quite good.
Then comes season 2 . each episode has a short 'Tardisode' prequel if you can be bothered to find them.
The season opener, 'New Earth' is moderate, a bit of a laugh, but the next three are superb!
Then you'll be hooked.
