Space Ood-ity

how very ood

The poor Ood.

Good solid story. A few seconds of Tate's comedy character style of acting briefly slipped out (as it has before) but was tightly held in check - to be soon replaced by what's becoming her trade mark compassion and sympathy and awe. If this carries on Donna is fast becoming one of my all time favourite companions*. Although Rose is a really tough act to follow but then Martha is a easy one - I never took to Martha.

Didn't spot anything that was immediately 'story arc-y' on the first viewing. Is the phrase 'all songs must end' (do the 'sound of drums' end too?) going to allude to anything? But then the Ood themselves are telepathic rather than prophetic.

[*I had to laugh when I read in someone's blog how Tate can't act. Because - you know the RSC just take in anybody off the street don't they.]
