Thing about Doctor Who I could have sworn I read somewhere they were going to be trying to "age" him so it would look like he'd been traveling and having other adventures off screen.
Couldn't really see that, but I loved the way this episode played out. Only three deaths out of the assembled pasengers and aliens, he's getting better.
With the Red Dwarf speical I had to explain some of the references, I guess they missed the bit where Lister reads off the back of the empty DVD case, but really with the death scene scene the only thing missing was the muscial score, that might have added a bit more to it.
And Craig Charles is having "flashbacks" nice refernces to his last bit of jail time
