Oh. My. God.
That was actually GOOD. Better than good. It was great. Pacing was perfect, suspense was building, ending was a stunning cliffhanger: wa-HEY!
I was sad when Rupesh got shot because I kind of liked him. He was pretty. Even when he shot Jack. And Peter Capaldi is clearly an evil politician which is a shame because that's a bit predictable. Is his secretary one of the Cusack sisters by the way? I forgot to check the credits.
I liked Tim/Clem. He was a nice quirky detail. And I loved all the little domestic touches. Stephen's mum and Jack were a nice character study, and Ianto's sister and her boyfriend were a scream. And the couple stuff between Jack and Ianto was just lovely.
I didn't like the fact that there weren't that many good female characters in comparison to male characters, and the outstanding new female character was the woman who shot Rupesh. They could have had one of the ministers or something be female. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing Lois's character develop. She looked pretty cool. And pretty. But A+ for racial and sexual orientation diversity (which is normal for Crotchw00t, really), even if they had a bit of genderfail. And didn't Colonel Mace have a GORGEOUS voice?
All in all, I am really looking forward to tomorrow :D YAY! I ENJOYED IT!!
