    It was ok. Normally the prequel would explain something to you. Also Strax costume was not that great because you could notice the line on the side of his face where the mask connects. It was very long and slightly boring.

    ha ha, he thought Strax was Turkish, Madam Vastra had a skin condition and was very surprised by the same gender relationship (even though I’m sure some of us had already suspected this.)

    lets see the things that are changing.

    the tardis
    the companion
    the titles will look diffrent
    there will be a new twist on the old theme era of doctor who. wow i just can’t wait. and also vastra, jenny and strax are also in the first episode of the new series and the last episode too. and by seeing what i see in the dw mag i think it is confirmed that a doctor who speical episode is being made woo.

    I think that DR WHO should be historicly acurat. Sure have aliens in it but make sure everything is historicly acurat.

      Not really a new era, as the Moffat era began a couple of years ago, but we could say that 2013 will be recognized as the 50th anniversary year taking place during the Moffat era.

    Victorian England was publicly uptight and repressive, however, it gave literature : Moll Flanders, Tom Jones and Lady Chatterly among others.

    Ha ha, it seems a little strange asking if ‘same gender relationships’ would have been accepted in the Vicorian era…considering one of then is a LIZARD!
