Plenty of things, but in terms of the body the lightning bolt hands and "PEOPLE ARE GREEDY AT CHRISTMAS SO LET'S MAKE THE MASTER GREEDY" elements are notable highlights.

From what I have seen a Time Lord has no choice what their new form ends up as.

Several times the Doctor has expressed interest in being ginger or upset that his new form isn't ginger. If the Doctor could control what his new form looked like he would be ginger instead of other colors.

They can have some degree of power over it. It's a weird scene played for mostly for laughs, but in the Classic series Romana cycles through bodies until she finds one she likes.

Also the people from Kahn can give you achoice as well to who you and what you look like check the night of the doctor when eight changes to the war doctor

I always thought that was because Romana actually knows what she's doing an isn't holding it off as long as the Doctor does.

We're getting close. I understand there have been one, maybe two, small tweaks to the titles for this episode (that are apparently ticking people off left and right). I am both excited and nervous. The last episode was fairly restrained so I'm hoping we don't get two episodes worth of bombastic nonsense and handwaving/reset solutions crammed into sixty minutes. There is that awful falling effect to contend with as well. Still, brave heart and all that! :D

Oh, apparently there is something post credits, if you haven't heard. It's probably just a trailer for Christmas, but it should be worth sticking around for.

Edit: Quick post episode thoughts, I need to digest this one for a bit.

Clara's credits, I was amused. She is not gone. Neither is Missy. I still don't like Danny Pink, but all of the actors excelled with the material they were given. I really do wish the Doctor would return to using his intellect to create solutions and stop letting love defeat every problem. The Brig's cyber-conversion will be a hot button issue, but I'm glad Kate survived. Poor Osgood, RIP.

Didn't like it very much at all :( the "twist" was insanely obvious from the start, the Cybermen have just devolved further and further into bad ripoffs of other similar things and Osgood continues to infuriate me in ways unimaginable (but she's dead now! Woo!). Everything was so speedily cobbled together at the end it didn't really properly handle any aspect of it at all.

Gomez was absolutely superb though. I'm not a particular fan of the new series "Oh Doctor please just notice me!" Master but I can't fault her performance at all.And she killed Osgood, making her even better.

Bleh.

So, Zeo, what are your thoughts on Missy? Dead or Teleported?

I think the latter, but it does kind of render the Brig's last act pointless.
