So does anyone else want to play Clue or Charades now?<\/p>\n
This is a nice historical piece placed within the timeline of Agatha Christie life with a nice science fiction twist. Fenella Woolgar looks like a young Dame Agatha and plays the part with the right touch of drawing room drama that is all through out this piece which makes sense since she is a theatrical actress who studies at RADA.<\/p>\n
Again my love for Donna increases. This one felt like the writer was not quite sure what to do with her. Some times she felt very Donna and others it felt like she was being used as a sidekick.<\/p>\n
And does anyone have a tally for how many times the Doctor and Donna have declared themselves not a couple?<\/p>\n
Of course spoilers behind the cut and in the comments.<\/p>\n
Next week, from the new producer of Doctor Who who also informed us not to Blink, we now have to avoid the shadows. Ariel slept with her light on for two nights after the next two and that is my only comment until the episodes air.<\/p>\n

OK best part for me was the Doctor trying to tell Donna what he needs to counteract the cyanide. That bit had both the ticking clock and the comedy that works so well for Tennant and Tate. What is that? Salt! No too salty! Shock to the system! It was all great fun.<\/p>\n
It did feel like an Agatha Christie novel being acted out and it worked for me. I loved everyone being called to the drawing room for questioning (well everyone who was not a servant because they don’t count). And the reveals were timed well.<\/p>\n
All in all this was a silly bit of fun and sometimes I think we need to be reminded that Doctor Who can be a silly bit of fun. We don’t alway need Emo stories for the show to work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
