Thor, about who River killed, it's not pretty obvious who she killed if you watched Dr Who Confidential after it, where Moffat discussed this.
I loved that the Dr was scared and confused in this episode, showing fear.
Also in the confidential, talking about Amy jumping on the Doc (loved that line abut sorting me out), Steve Moffat said he was sick of all this unrequited stuff.

Hmm, then let me clear out that I meant to say. The hint was pretty obvious, so if it's not him... hold on, does confidential actually talk about the plot now?

Yeah but they're being clever about it - Moffat giving little hints and there was even a bit with Amy hinting at her future. What I did like was the chemistry between her and Matt Smith seems to be very good ofscreen (The lucky bugger).
Seems the finale will deal with this Pandorica thing, whatever that is and I do like how they are addressing the fact that nobody remembers the major events in the Who timeline (ie: giant victorian cyberman stomping through London.)
All doctor who discussion will be in here now ;)

There's a bigger overarching thing going (Moffat-style). A popular theory is now that [spoiler]the doctor is actually visiting amy from two different points in time. Flesh and Stone pretty much confirmed, when the doctor returned to tell Amy that "she needs to remember when she was 7", which doesn't make any sense in the context of the episode. On top of that the doctor had his jacket on when he said that, although he lost it to the angels earlier. The next scene with River and Octavian it's gone again.[/spoiler] I am certain it's not a mistake.

Another good episode, really starting to like Smith as the Doctor, he may be the best of the new ones (didn't watch all of the old ones so I can't comment on that).
But the next week episode seems rather intriguing, Dream Lord, I wonder what that will be about.

I caught some of an episode when I was working nights. I just can't watch it. There is something... low budget about it that bothers me. I like this new Doctor, I think the actor is good and he does a good job of the role, but there is just something embarrassing about it. It's got some kind of Harry Potter feel to it that I can't get over.

Actually this week did feel a bit cheaply done, when he was climbing up that tower thing.
Otherwise though the Weeping Angel two-parter was great, pushing the scariness as far as you can for Saturday teatime. So I've forgiven the lacklustre Dalek ep. And the weirdness with the overarching plot is intriguing.

Man! I love the new Doctor more and more with each episode...I never thought id be able to let go of Tennant as the Doctor but i stand corrected.
The new series is amazing!
Somehow i knew the Vampires weren't going to be just Vampires, its always something else. lol
