Yeah Sophia Miles *drool*
There should be a few more pics of her out there now that she's done tristan and isolde and all that.
I first saw her in Underworld and saw a picture of her as Lady Penelope in Thunderbirds (Didnt see the movie itself) which made me want to find pictures of her then... but there weren't that many.
Hopefully that's since changed

It's Saturday morning and I am looking at my TV screen waiting for tonights episode with the cybermen :). I am such a sad geek .LOL

I loved The Girl in the Fireplace. I had hoped that we wouldn't hear what was in the letter but it was just so sad, that she was still hopeful of his return and...
Plus lots of other neat moments too: "Sunday roast" (or not); the robot's logic; the Doctor suddenly running into a horse; his rubbish attempts at hiding.
How many kids checked very very thoroughly under their beds on Saturday?
Hopefully those same children will be scared witless tonight. Cybermen should be as frightening as possible.

Cybermen.
Select to view spoiler:
Not really all that fantastic, to be honest. Came over like big metal beasties, instead of that really unhealthy, sick, wrongness that you got off the old ones.
The arch baddie was just absolutely out-and-out hold your nose rubbish. The stary-eyed, clenched-buttock school of villainous acting lives. Unfortunately. (Grit your teeth, tense your neck, and skeak the usual clunky lines at the gack of your throat in a staccato nanner, and you're right there).
Rest of the cast great as usual, and not because of Rose dressed up as a maid, although that was awfully nice, I have to say. Mickey a total revelation, and good to see Pete again.
Nice Sky Captain stuff, except, of course with something actually happening on screen
And West Ham lost on penalties. Bugger.

Whilst I don't think the episode was bad, I do admit that it wasn't as good as others - I think though, because it's a two part episode, it has resulted in this first part seeming a big slow in places - I think the 2nd part will be fab.
Did anyone else watch Dr Who Confidential?
(possible spoilers for next ep follow)

Apparently Mickey will prove himself quite the hero in the 2nd part.
I'm worried though, given that we learnt some background for him in this episode, that we might not see him again.
Maybe it's just me but... late character development? a chance for a character to prove himself a hero? I've got the feeling that RTD is giving the character the send-off.
I just hope I'm wrong. I'd like to see him stick around a bit longer at least.

This episode did not work for me. Terrible TERRIBLE main villain and lacklustre script. I might have been more palatable if the Doctor had of been on screen more but as it stands this was a big let down.

Who do you suppose is in there?

The villian struck me as a bit of a Tom Baker davros strangly enough...
I missed a good chunk of the episode though because I was having a row with a Bus driver who tried to run over a friend of mine...

Got a bumper sticker "Keep Death Off The Roads..."
then under that, another one
"...and on the pavement, where it belongs."

Strangly enough, yes. The bus mounted the curb...

I agree with Haze on this. I thought the Cybermen look brilliant and they where pretty scary, however they could have done much better with the script. It just did not seem to be up to scratch of previous episodes. Last weeks episode and 'Tooth and Claw' where very good, however this week was an anti climax :(. I don't think trigger did well as a baddie. I was not convinced. Usually with Dr Who I've hated it when the episode has ended because I just want it to continue but this episode I just felt a bit deflated :(
No what I wanna see brought back are the Sea Devils. They always scared me :)
