WARNING DOCTOR WHO SPOILERS!!!!!
I liked the first one, though it was comical and a bit Pythonesque in places and electric eels aren't found near there anyway.
it was fun and i like the Doctor making big errors.
Didn't like the second part, the only one of the season I didn't like much. plot boring and silly, lion man breathes fire?
Bit dangerous when you're very furry, isn't it ?
But I did like the idea of the human limited memory so Ashildr forgot her name and nearly everything, the flashbacks were good, to Agincourt and the plague (the tears in the book )etc. Immortality being a curse is a great concept, also dealt with in Torchwood.
But you're right, the weak spot of the season all in all.
Yes, I agree with you. The first one was better.
I never caught her name! I thought they were saying "The Shielder" and I couldn't figure it out. I assumed it was a nickname like "Lofty" -woops! I also like the idea of the human limited memory. That was an interesting part of the story. Also, LOVE whenever the Doctor translates "baby." Feel free to mock me, but I got a lump in my throat during the baby's monologue. -Really good writing there. I laughed at your comment about the lion guy breathing fire. Ha! It's like the Beast from the 80's Beauty and the Beast tv show, but he drank Condorman's triple Istanbul Express:D...

Also, I'm starting to see why you have mixed feelings about the guitar. They're using it waaaay too much. We don't need it in every episode and we especially don't need it multiple times in an episode. They are trying too hard to make him "cool." I like Doctor's who are ACCIDENTALLY cool. In fact, I like PEOPLE who are ACCIDENTALLY cool:D
Just started the Zygon invasion. Good Stuff! Great season!

In all fairness to Jade, the REAL ingredients may not have been available to her. When I worked in New Zealand, corn of ANY type was regarded as only good for animal feed. I wanted to make cornbread for my kiwi friends, but could NOT find cornmeal in ANY of the stores. :(
Interesting. I would have never thought about that!

I won't mock you, though I'm not so keen on the baby stuff.
Zygon one pretty good, very relevant with the refugees and the radicalized element.
Enjoy!

Rushed half of my offspring to where they need to go and I'm having a bit of breakfast. Going to do a little online Christmas shopping and I'm racing toward the day ahead!

Have fun watching Beetlejuice!!!! Save me a zagnut!
Don't spend all your money on Amazon like I did this week!
Enjoy breakfast and the day!
