DW: The Sound of Drums

(Many apologies if you saw this uncut first time round. I fail utterly.)

List of Things
or, I use the list format to try and make it look like I am making sense at all and not just brainsplurging

• I mock ze aged make-up. Why must people insist on using it? It never looks good.
  
• But otherwise: YEAH! That was very very exciting.
  
• I LOVED LOVED LOVED the bits on Gallifrey. The city in the bubble, the colours, the collars, the stargate rip in the fabric of reality, all good. Also the Doctor talking about being a child on Gallifrey, ace.
  
• The big sky-ship thingy looked fantastic. And UNIT! yay.
  
• Oh I am so incoherent with love.
  
• It all looked so good (apart from the age make up).
  
• John Simm = fantastic. With the comedy and the creepy and the clever, oh yes. And offering Lucy a jellybaby, snerk.
  
• And Jack and Martha commiserating - "you too, huh?" - so cute!
  
• I giggled muchly at the "secret brother"/"too much tv" bit.
  
• Martha's driving! Oh and just her altogether, with the phoning and the concern and shouting at the Doctor, not letting him tell her what to do unless she agrees that it's the right thing to do. And I am looking forward to her in the next ep based on what I saw in the trailer.
  
• There is something I found v. amusing about the idea of the Doctor and the Master having a chat on their mobile phones...
  
• Ooo, they were just talking about slo-mo on the Confidential, usually I hate slo-mo due to too much Andromeda, but here it was really cool - I didn't even notice first time round!
