I expected a lot from this episode but sadly found myself wanting more!! It's not the first time spiders have been used in Dr Who, but overall the series so far hasn't quite lived up the series of the past. Moffat's scripts are about exciting as watching flies having a race. Whatever other people will say I 'm wondering how much longer will we have to wait before things get really interesting and needless to say the Christmas special (if there is one), has to be something special to even rank with the Christmas specials of the past.

Stylistically, this was tremendous, should have been episode 1, not 7. Plot-wise... oh dear.

Hmm - didn't quite work - no decent effects for the space baby - budget all spent on dinosaur in ep1? Why were the astronauts so crap? No real danger either as the tardis could have left at anytime.

Poor but I expect that now to be honest. There is too much of the Doctors assistant and not enough Doctor for my liking. Perhaps it should be renamed Friends of Doctor Who.
Moffats overall direction is killing this series with his vision of a Doctor for the modern era. He has given the assistants too much of a central role rather than a supportive one. Elizabeth Sladen was a key player but she was always an understudy to the Doctor. These days it seems the assistant is smarter than the Doctor!

I have heard that Jenna Coleman may now not be leaving at Christmas as she is rumoured to have not made her mind up yet.

surely now the BBC must be concerned at any fall in ratings for this series

What fall? personally, I think it's one of the best overall series for a very long time. Glad all the lovey dovey, will they wont they, oh look the doctor is sensitive and cries bullshit has gone.

This is more like the doctor I started on John Pertwee.

Does no one not think that Clara is going to be reveal as something quite big? She seems to know how to drive the Tardis, can click her finger and open the door of the Tardis, can apparently make it go back to a child doctor and seems to be able to boss the doctor about.

Seems a lot more than just the usual eye candy companion.

Have you not seen The Day of the Doctor? Clara is the Impossible Girl who keeps reappering in the Doctor's timeline - not going to say why due to spoilers but it's explained in that Special.

Yes I did see it, I know she's the impossible girl, but it's not fully explained why she is the impossible girl or why she seems to be some form of guardian angle looking over all off the time lords incarnations, why she is there or who sent her.

Unless I missed all that explanation, for all we know she ties in to Missy or connected to her.
