    I guess "the crimson horror" is our "Doctor-Lite" episode this year?:confused:

    Doesn't have to be a bad thing. In Blink 10 and Martha had smaller roles. Sally was the main person and it was a good scary episode. Wondere if he based it on little shop of horrors. Suppose to be about a
    plant that lives off human blood.
    . Sure there are going to be some classic moments in 7.2.

    The Crimson Horror was in the same filming block as The Snowmen, and according to GB Matt was seen in the majority of the filmed scenes, so there's no guarantee that it's Doctor-lite.

    I think the main area is The Crimson Horror is "focused" on Strax, Madame Vastra an Jenny than Doctor and Clara....but i do think by what i have seen/read 11 and Clara will still be prominant so it wont be a "Doctor-Lite"...not always keen on "Lite" episodes myself....but tbh i wont mind as i adore that trio of Vastra, Jenny and Strax :D should be a real fun episode i reckon :D

    But i deffo agree that we are gonna have a load of classic moments this run :)
