That was such a lovely christmas special. I am not going to go ahead and say it has been the best so far because I heart the others too much - but it definitely was one of the best with Eleven so far.

It was so ridiculously Doctor Who-like, if you get what I mean. The fish thing was just so brilliant - Fishy Wishy!

I really liked the story line because it was very christmassy indeed
I am just going to write down some thoughts right now because I cannot possibly remember everything

Loved when the Doctor said his psychic paper shortened out because it was such a big lie
And "what do boys say in the face of danger - mummy!"

It was such a joy to watch with lots of heartbreak.
That line: "Better a broken heart than no heart - you try it" - the look on the Doctor's face was so sad

But I must say, the one thing I do love most about Eleven is that he seems to be happier than Ten. Good for him

Oh, and one thing that annoyed me a bit was when the old Kazran touched the younger Kazran.
Am I confused or should that not create a paradox? Just like in "Father's Day"?

But really, I loved this episode

ETA: OMG AND THAT TRAILER AT THE END?!
Series 6 looks amazing!

I think they implied that they were wearing the costumes because of some 'fun' during their honeymoon Rory said something about that at the beginning

I agree about the lack of Amy and Rory. But I think it suited the story to not have them running around as welll.

I am definitely looking forward to that! The short bits where we did see Rory and Amy were awesome.

I know about nothing about Katherine Jenkins ... does anyone know if the songs she sang were her own? Or if they wrote them for this episode?

I think you actually can. There are some tiny bits you might not get without having watched the last series. But you should be all right

Also, Murray Gold wrote that song at the end? He really is brilliant
ETA: And he just tweeted me a smiley for saying that on Twitter He is such a lovely guy

Looks like a few countries are getting this xMas special quickly, but I couldn't wait another 12 hours so...

Fantastic special, loved every minute of it, especial Amy Pond in the police uniform again

Thought it was overkill. But I still loved it.

And that trailer. So can't wait!

Why did you think it was an overkill?

Too Christmasy. Too much timey wimey. Way too much CGI. There goes the budget for Series 6.

Just something I'm not used to in Doctor Who. I mean, don't get me wrong, it was awesome. I guess my expectations have just always been low for DW Christmas specials that I didn't expect it to be so good.

Maybe I'll feel different on the rewatch.
