In no more than 10 minutes, Moffat made them scary again, returning to the body horror that was integral to their original conception."<br /><br />Can't really argue with this, though I'll give Rise of the Cybermen points for its cliffhanger - much scarier to me than some of their 60s stories. Also, not being vulnerable to gold coins.Toby'cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-23099168203055538722010-12-24T09:19:56.948-04:002010-12-24T09:19:56.948-04:00You'd have to ask Gareth Roberts that!

In this way he'll "earn" his life back, just in time for his wedding day.<br /><br />I want to speculate that adult Amy will turn out to be young Amelia's mysterious and unseen aunt, but there are problems with that. Unless we assume that adult aunt Amy took off when the crack first appeared, lest she get mired into the whole Prisoner Zero business; then maybe it works. (I know it's normally bad juju for a person to meet one's self, but maybe it works out in this case because time is already a mess centered on Amy.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-73606751701068582642010-06-24T21:58:12.367-03:002010-06-24T21:58:12.367-03:00I've been away from STCCG much too long to com...I've been away from STCCG much too long to come up with answers.
