Oddly, I was thinking precisely the same thing.  Something to do with the quality of actors that both shows attract.

I enjoy them, only because they never actually show the wife he's trying to rescue, so I can imagine it's Julie Delpy, and that this movie is just the sort of thing that their characters get up to in between the "Before ___" movies

So is this the Rumpole of the Bailey reboot, or not?

All art is quite useless.

Wait, Karen Elson was his wife? I thought she was his sister!

Doctor Who is more fantasy than science fiction.  The challenges are never technical in any real way, so there's nothing wrong with having the sonic screwdriver be basically a magic wand.

There was a lot of buzz around Patterson Joseph last time, I still think he would be good. 

Evil Karen Gillan just about has me convinced to try watching this show.
