So then, what did we think?

K, spoiler free review. Um, didn't Karen/Amy look great in that outfit?

I thought the first ten minutes or so were both OTT and self-indulgent, but did work as a nice setup for 11 and Amy. But then it began to grab me.

Anyone else? I suspect there'll be spoilers in the comments. Some of them will come from me.

Trying not to spoil...

I think they had a bit too much to set up - introducing a new Doctor, and a new companion, and her family, and the alien of the week. But I definitely liked it.

The first scenes were a bit OTT, but I liked the weird food. Looking forward to more of that.

As for Smith, he reminded me a bit of the good parts of Pertwee, without the misogynistic crap that makes Three unwatchable. Love.

Also, did anyone else think he should have kept the multiple ties?
