Hitler? Not so much. But I was 'worried for his reputation' if that's the correct turn of phrase here. The twentieth-century's bogeyman has been transformed into a cartoon character for decades, featuring in comics (as you mention above), video games, cartoons... thank god he only gets stuck in a wardrobe here. Great title, but almost a red herring. Well played, Mr Moffat. Quite dubious about River from hereon in however, and Mels didn't grab me at all. I was happy to see her go, in fact! Just too 'arch', and there was more to come after the regeneration of course. As the curtain-raiser for Season 6's second act this is okay. Visually lovely (as usual) and some cracking lies, but ooh I'm still struggling to keep up on the egnagement stakes. I feel as though there's someone out there with a mighty pen who's more enthralled with the arc of the current series than I am right now, and that ain't right.
