Who re-watch: Vampires in Venice

Like this post? 
Short break, had to study  for those finals I hadn't bothered to worry about, but they are tomorrow and I am back to the Who. As before, you will have had to seen the episode in question to understand these scattered notes. I might reference future episodes as well. This is to devise a season 7 theory.


"I like the bit where someone says: Its bigger on the inside. I always look forward to that" got to love Rory pwning the doctor on that one.


"And so in memory of the children lost to the silence..."

Moffat, sorry but you did fuck up the whole perception filter concept.

They ran from the silence, there were cracks on 'Saturn 9'. Through some of the cracks they 'saw silence' and the end of all things.

And all the Venetians vanish. That's swell.

This episode really lends itself to the new filming style in Doctor Who. I thought the images were beautiful.

One thing I notice in this episode is that the silence is not a religious order its more like a force(well the whole tardis exploding thing). Actually I think Moffat stole the concept from The Never Ending Story. Sure sounds like the nothingness. Anyway the Religious order that we learn about  called 'the silence' whom the race of the silent's are in control of seems to be something else all together. Maybe they wanted to lock the doctor in the pandorica so he couldn't speak those words on the fields of Trensimore but why would they when they think they know that their plot to kill him will succeed.

Before I go, I want to say you were fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. And you know what? So was I.
