WHAT WHAT I DON'T EVEN NO DAMN WHAT KJDBVIKDJSBVOIASBNCIADSBCOLA



Okay now I have that slightly out of my system ... I lie, I'm still in shock and flaily about what happened.

Just ... okay, when the message went aroud at the beginning (and halfway through the episode I had to check whether I'd actually seen the opening credits yet as I couldn't remember there was just so much happening), I loved the links back to the previous cracks from the season, and poor Vincent (it was so sad just seeing him like that .... *wibble*) seeing what no one else could see ... right until the end of the universe ...

Roman times, snark with River (who for the first time I stopped snarking about as she seemed a lot more approachable - and I feel so horrible for saying that, but I'm not the biggest fan of her in the world, but I also don't want her to die), and then the mysterious Roman soldier - RORY RORY RORY saves the day!!!!!!

The constant reiteration of "What's inside", what can't I work out", "what can't I see" was almost heartbreaking at the end when the biggest threat to the universe ... was the Doctor himself. Oh it almost hurt the way he finally worked out that he's the one who destorys the universe - the destroyer of worlds gets his title.

For a moment I thought Rory was going to turn out to be the Pandorica's creature, trying to get Amy to remember him so he could escape the Pandorica (to the fanfiction!!!), and then the twist that Rory wasn't even real ... and then killing Amy!!! AKBVPKIDSJBVPSDHBPIFHAPD

I'm not as big a fan of Amy as Rory, but I do like how she started to mature and Karen Gillan did mange to help with the acting, but the parts where she's trying to work out why she's crying, trying to remember who Rory is, and the fact that like the rest of them she's not just a girl, but integral, actually came across very well :)

And the end? Just ... fading out? The music ending? The galaxies burning? And silence falling? *WIBBLE*

The moment with the parts of the Cyberman was scary (though the Cyber head was like a crab or a spider ... *shudder*), and in general ... WHY DO I HAVE TO WAIT A WHOLE WEEK TO WATCH THE FINALE!!!!!!

Bugger. Well, off to watch WOK :D

Could they have come up with a more cliff-hangery cliffhanger ending?! It was awesome. Though I was convinced it was going to turn out the TARDIS was inside the Pandorica. Can't wait for next week :-)

Well, this isMoffat, he'd have probably tried xD

I honestly thought that Rory WAS the Pandorica, and Amy ahd to remember him to open the box and all that .. so HUGE shock when the ending happened :) (And now I want more fanfiction :D)

Ah I know! Problem is, I'm at Biggin Hill Airshow next Saturday, so I may end up doing iPllayer damnit! :)
