This episode was such a cracker and hauntingly creepy with that weird entity. Nice play on the meaning of the episode title I thought as well.

I did feel sad at the end scene, it reminded me of the Doctor Who Christmas Special, "Voyage of the Damned". I definitely felt the Doctor's heart break as I clutched the seat cushion harder, but thankfully it doesn't end in sadness.

It was a very nice and rather odd Doctor Who. I liked the whole notion of exploring what the Tardis might act like if it were humanoid. Also we again got exploration of the bonds between Amy and Rory - that seems to be a theme this season.

I love how they dug up the previous Tardis' control room. That was so cool and brought back happy memories. :D

Idris/Sexy was so graceful, just what I expected from the soul of the Tardis.

Yeh this was a great episode, so far I've thought this series has been brilliant.

Next week's episode doesn't look all that interesting though :(. I'm not really a fan of the two parters that don't actually tie into overarching plot.

I have one nitpick. River Song confirmed that the Tardis's "woosh" sound was a result of leaving on the "parking break", which she disengaged in one episode and the noise disappeared. Why would that makeshift Tardis they assembled from spare parts make the same noise right from the start? :rolleyes:

The Doctor either put it back on or the Tardis did, knowing the doctor liked it that way.

By far my favourite episode of this season. lol most of the doctor/tardis moments were hilarious. Neil Gaiman is awesome.

Thumbs up from me this week. I'd never really thought about the need for bedrooms aboard the Tardis before. Bunk beds for Amy and Rory? :icon_lol:
