Dr Who 4x07

Between Mum and me, we got about 10-13 titles. Mel supplied some more, since he read the books in English. It was very silly, though.

I thought miss Redmond was the illegitimate kid, which is a thought I had even before we found out Lady Eddison spent six months locked in a room for 'malaria'. To be honest, Mum right after that revelation posited the pregnancy.

Hee, Donna calling the Doctor on his smelling-bluff was brilliant. Do all Companion in NewWho have to kiss the Doctor? It's getting a bit silly. As are the bit-characters commenting on the relationship between the Doctor and Donna.

We need more Doctor reminiscing about his past and getting out the memory-chest. Maybe get out the 'D', for Dickens. Just to show Donna that he did meet the man. (And I just realised the connection between that story and the one Dickens wrote about Scrooge. Woe.)

If this Agatha was anything like the real Agatha, then she must have been a very smart woman. Of course, with the books she wrote, she had to be.

A lot of her books were set in archaeological digs in the Middle East because her second husband was an archaeologist and she went to several digs with him. (IIRC anyway).

Have I missed the story about Dickens? Which Doctor was that?

So how many are we up to between us? ;)

That's what Wiki says. She travelled a lot with him.

I liked this one muchly. It was very silly. The being a couple joke is getting old, yes. It was cute, but now it's just... eh.
