Christmas Special

[donutsweeper]

Just saw the Doctor Who Christmas special.

Nonspoilerly reaction is- I think I enjoyed it more than I've like DW in a long, long time.  Although.... *facepalms* at effects.  The creature-things (face of badguy, body of I'm not sure what)  were what I would have expected back in the days of the first or second Doctor. 

In the musical "Annie" the not nice woman running the orphanage is Miss Hannigan, I assume the similariaty in name was planned?

Better question: Can someone buy RTD a baby names book? Jack, Jackie, Jackson ... ugh!

I, too, just got around to watching that. My first reaction to the creature things was "Cybermonkies!", which just led to a lot of laughter. Mostly, they reminded me of the Morlocks in H.G. Wells' story "The Time Machine".

I really liked this one, especially Jackson.
