Are there any articles that explain all the issues about time travel in Doctor Who? I have looked before but never seem to find them. I know it's better not to think about it at all but it is confusing.

Well that was great

I think.......premature, no time to sit back and consider etc, but I THINK I'm warming to Martha more than Rose.....she's less Chav and more warm and compassionate.,...and it's nice to have someone suprised about all this time travel lark again.

Overall, ruddy bloody good!

It was so so so good. Yeh I think the ELizabeth 1st bit at the end 'Off with his head!' is pointing towards a future episode. The Dr says 'I've never met her'.

Nah.. the TARDIS (which it has long been established thinks for itself rather too much) tends to take him where he's needed, which is why he rarely ends up exactly where (and when) he expected to be.

Fun, if fluffy, episode - but please please, can he shut up about Rose already?

Slightly frivolous but does anyone else think Will looked like Justin Lee Collins whilst he was writing under the spell?

IMO, the style this series seems more refined, darker and exciting .. already my favourite so far !

There's a reason why he keeps talking about Rose and my guess is she is going to turn up in a later episode

Nope. That was Victoria who set up Torchwood, hundreds of years later.

So in your life when you have lost someone you have loved you instantly forget about them???

I'm glad the Dr mentioned Rose

Don't know her name but she played 'Justin's' mum in Hollyoaks!
