ZOMG JACK ZOMG THE MASTER I like what they did there with the watch. That was cool with the tie-in and stuff. And the Master's voices! I mean, Old Masters! *dance of joy*

John Barrowman's name in the opening credits! Yay!

Awww, flirty joyous Jack! We missed you! *hugs him*

So... in the year Five Trillion, the human race is slowly devolving into Emos. That's... kind of funny.

Wooot, Derek Jacobi! He rules. And I liked the insect woman.

Heeee, little Blue Peter kid.

Yay! It's John Simm! Mum was very impressed, being a Life on Mars fan.

Ohhh, come on, TARDIS! You should know better than to let the Master fly you! And you should definitely know better than to lock the Doctor out.

I don't really care about the humans in their rocket, or the Emokind. They were just plot devices. I hope they get to Utopia okay, but I don't expect their plot to be tied up neatly.

Oh, my God! The Master has had his Genre Blindness corrected! IT CANNOT BE! "Why don't we stop and have a nice little chat, while I tell you all my plans and you can work out how to stop me. I don't think." So much win.

How the hell did the Master get out of the Eye of Harmony or the Heart of the TARDIS or wherever it was he got sucked into? I still like the "he escaped when Rose ripped open the console" theory, but it doesn't go far in explaining how he ended up as Derek Jacobi and stuff.

There was no face-punching. Disappointment.

Hee, Jack's "Am I not allowed to say hello to anyone?" You can say hello to me anytime, baby. And by 'say hello to', I mean 'shag'.

Ohhhh, when Professor Yana (that was contrived, by the way) started hearing The Sound of Drums, that's when I pretty much figured what was going to happen in the episode. And then the watch tied it together. Cos I thought that we were only going to have the Master in episodes 12 and 13, and I figured that Derek Jacobi was actually an amnesiac Master, and I squeed. Mum, who probably doesn't even know what a spoiler is, wanted to know what my problem was. Then, when the Master was about to regenerate, Mum wanted to know who he was regenerating into and I wouldn't tell her. It was amusing. Also, the Master has no goatee. This is probably a good thing- he would never have gotten voted Prime Minister if he looked stereotypically evil.

So, the Master sort of sucked regenerative energy or whatever out of the Doctor's hand? What was it called- Symbiotic nuclei, or something?

Hey, what's wrong with blogging? Bastard.

Martha and Jack: plz to be sexing next episode kthxbai.

So, yeah. The story itself was kind of blah. But it wasn't meant to be about the story, I think- it was all about one-liners, Jack coming back, and the Master. Which would have been hugely exciting and shocking if the BBC could keep a secret worth a damn.

Seriously, best part of the episode. That was awesome. The Doctor himself fell way short for me in this episode, but I really did enjoy everything else.
