Dr Who: School Reunion.

I was tearing up at the end. The Doctor has an inner life and we were glimpsing it.

He's also a bit of a bastard; He loves 'em and leaves 'em. One of the great things about the Doctor- from Hartnell on- is that he's never been blandly heroic.

This was the best episode of the second season (thus far).

I still feel the episodes are too short. The bad guys aren't given long enough to establish themselves.

Tony Head's performance made me want to see him as Count Dracula. What a fine actor he is! "Pitch perfect" said the director.

I'm getting accustomed to David Tennant.

I feel like Rose does about Mickey: does he really have to come along?

I hadn't realised they were related.

According to Wikipedia, Murray is Tony's older brother. Apparently they were both played the same role in Chess. Murray created the role and Tony inherited it some way down the line.

I like Trevor Nunn- but I only really know him as a director of Shakespeare.

I think he's probably working on the London stage.
