I can go with that, it makes sense… sometimes it's hard to make out what the Increasingly Manic Matt Smith is yelling!

Not as much fun as the previous two Moffatt XMas specials.. some of the mood being ruined in the start with the Snowmen munching on the workmen, which was more in keeping with the nastiness evident in RTD's XMas Specials. And somehow the resolution didn't quiiiiite gel.. I mean, really, in all of 19th century London,…

Sure, we've got our Special Services Group (SSG) commandos, that have conducted training exercises with the SAS and Green Berets.. though in this episode all they really did was shoot unarmed women! Mind you, I assume these guys were naval commandos, they should have been wearing blue berets rather than the maroon,…

I assume the sub was dropping off the SSG troops (though how they got from the sub to the ship without it either surfacing or them being in wetsuits.. dunno!)

Haven't seen the episode yet, so there may be some things to alleviate my thoughts but.. based on the recap.. Pakistan gets framed.. then nuked.. then India is about to invade.. and this episode decides to make Pakistanis the bad guys? Not to mention Marcus offering to drop MORE nukes on us? That's a bit of an..…

(in reply to Prole, as I don't know where in the tree this post will end up)..I *think* that's what the novelization does suggest..

I dinnae remember To The Death (I really need to go back and rewatch DS9, maybe skipping a few Season 1 bits).
