agreed.
but it didn't really need to be 'plodding' though, did it?
i was cursing dotcom all week for revealing that this episode was silurian-based, but... it was the same old silurian story. with the dalek/cyberman 'world domination' second episode lead in.

i liked it. as people above have said, it had the feeling very much an old dr who story, quite like a pertwee. looking forward to next week's episode (which i shall watch later this evening)

Seemed good to me. I was worried it was going too slowly and they were going to try to wrap it all up suddenly with a deus ex machina but I didn't realise it was a two-parter.

i didn't think it was a 'strong start'. although once we'd reached 16 minutes and the doctor had said 'what? soniccing and entering?!'... well.
DC, thought of you when amy strutted out with those... shorts?

the doctor was talking of silence again, when trying to hear the drill in the mine.
yes.
reason why i said that was because i'd only ever come across the phrase 'dxm' via FM.

not you again
er deux ex machina is a plot device to solve something in a supernatural, unexplained way. nothing to do with silence. or amy being in bondage.

So many particulars. So many questions.
I like the bit about him not using weapons rearing its head. Reminded me of the bit in a 7th Doc novel where he confronts a baddie by sticking his finger in the barrel of the gun and giving it 'you could shoot and I would lose my hand. But so would you'
yes, yes, yes...
the point was that i'd only learnt that from FM, after his quite wonderful exposition in series 28.
i'm <33 years old, mind.

Very much. Good pacing, didn't feel rushed. 2 parters are far superior.
