I am impressed

chocolatepotIs it just me or is Eleven extremely perplexed by and somewhat frightened of sex? Yeah, canon love interests and a lot more near-explicit references to sexuality, but it always kind of makes him run away.
Chibnall hasn't turned me off in the first couple of minutes, that's good for him. I applaud his inclusion of the anklysaur, as it's very unglamorous and usually ignored.
Tongue! Like Ten!
LADY OF THE TWO LANDS! "Nb t3wy" is used all the time in inscriptions, it makes me so happy that they used that title.
"Yes. Yes, I am." Amy, ILU and everyone who says you're not cool can go sit in a hole.
Wow, Mark Williams and Arthur Darvill have very very similar noses.
"We're very cross with you." BEST LINE EVER. I love these robots. *uses IMDB because their voices are familiar* Oh, fuck me, they're Mitchell and Webb, this is the best.
Oh, this is Silurian stuff? :/ Chibnall, doing callbacks to your own stuff makes me think you're angling to be the next showrunner.
Lots of ~sexiness --> don't remind me of Torchwood, Chibnall.
AMY HAS COMPANIONS! Chibnall, stop flinging me about from hate to love.
Filch, you bastard! This may actually be the most sympathetic or complex character I've ever seen him play, which is a sad thing for someone to say about a career.
That little smirk when he "doesn't exist" - Matt Smith, you do a good job.
I love that the Hardnosed Military Commander is a woman.
Nefret-iti's plan is to kill him, right? This is creepy as balls, possibly one of the least family-friendly Who episodes I've seen. I mean, there's making jokes that go over the kiddies' heads, and then there's one character telling another he's going to rape her.
The raptors have feathers, someone's up on their dino science!
"I'm not a Pond." Yes, you are! You're all Ponds!
... Did he say racists lived on the Moon? Or "races"?
I do like the idea he's weaning them off him, even though he says he's not doing it, because that's better than never thinking about them having to go and then suddenly whoops, they're gone and it's all my fault, angst angst.
Wait, why are the missiles locked onto the polygon?
I was told that this was very Moffat-timey-wimey, but um, it seems like some people have very, very low tolerances for time travel?
Love that visual of Brian eating lunch in the door, that was well done.
"I AM HERE", oh lols.
In sum: Chibnall, guess I don't hate you anymore?
