TARDIS lady was definitely the best part about this episode. I loved the actress -- she did a great job being earnest and amazed and strange and perfectly comfortable with the Doctor.
Anyone else keep envisioning Helena Bonham Carter in the role?
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I am now.

Okay, that was just great fun from beginning to end, with a really spine-chilling horror sequence in the middle.
That said, I guess they blew the budget on the control rooms and the House sets, because that can not be what the TARDIS' corridors look like. Seriously? My inner Hardison is not buying it.

Barb, I'd seen that comparison before I watched the episode.....I think it was in someone's spoiler-free review.

Has this picture of David Tennant been posted?
Wow.

I knew I didn't have it quite right-- was just too lazy to go back and double check. Thanks for the correction.

I just rewatched "Day of the Moon." So, in the history of Who, has there ever been a creature who regenerated like a TIme Lord but wasn't a Time Lord?
Well, a Tardis moving to a human host or back again has a similar wavy-liney-energy thing going on, by the looks of it.
So now I'm wondering if they've introduced the idea of a human Tardis in order to pick it up again later in the series (similar to what they did with a humanized Time-Lord in Human Nature and Utopia in Series 3).

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
And we got confirmation that at least some Time Lords change sex from regeneration to regeneration!
