Oh my gawsh xD 
 
That was fantastic... I'm going to be all twitchy around statues from now on. I had to watch some of this with my glasses off so I couldn't see it properly.. and my mum watched it from the top of the stairs. 
Yeah, our house is mad. 
 
But that was really clever... time travelling-stuff usually makes my head hurt, and this was no exception... really good though. I love it how all the clues came together... and it all made sense [eventually]... aiiee =D

Definately the best episode so far. It was just so cleverly set up and the storyline and the whole idea of statues was simply sublime.
I thought it was fairly easy to understand, I mean after you watch reels upon reels of the Doctor himself...
I think I like this new side and genre to the series... the horror slash psychologically tame thriller slash pure enterainment gold! I think the writers have time sussed or they shipped in a quantum theorist to help write or something.

(10/10) And don't you forget it!

Good lord, that was good.

One of the best this series.

One of the best in the last three series.

Moffat's done it again!

Really good ideas, very clever, scary, exciting - and so many nods to fandom and geeks in general! Inspired.

9.5/10.

And...Captain Jack! <3

You took the words right out of my mouth, good sir. =]

Loved the episode. Great plot, and the method it all worked in was flawless. I really hope Steven Moffat gets the head writer position sometime soon.

Goly! That was a good a good episode. Loved the plot and how it was solved. I love all of Steve Moffat's episodes. They always have the most mysterious plots that make the show so thrilling. Clever ideas too. The Tardis trick was great. Looks like another event the Doctor hasn't come to. Love how she gave the information, to give to him, so he could kinda translate it back... :P

I only really get a bit scared by a few Doctor Who episodes and that was one of them. The only others are the Scarecrows and the Empty Children...

Can't wait for the next episode. Looks really episode and of course Captain Jack's back. This has been a great overall series...
Yes.

I'm just searching for a unique style, Lord Barnabat.

But yeah, that story was very well written.

That was a great episode, with a really great concept (I love twisty back to front plots like this), and really great lines ("This is my timey-wimey detector, it goes bing when there's stuff").

Loved that one, Moffat is great.

Agreed, that really was a fabulous episode.

However, about Mr. Saxon being the Master: Mr. Saxon is being played by John Simms, the dude from Life on Mars. However, the dude that looked most likely to be the master (imo) from the trailer was the old dude holding the watch or something.

I really do hope that the "other" that the Face of Boe mentioned is the Time Lord. That, or he was just making a remark about Caan's existence...>.>

SPOILER


He apparently regenerates into the Master at the end of the episode. That's according to The Sun, though.
