Just keep telling yourself it was the Zygon and real Osgood is off somewhere bumming around in a crazy patchwork coat with a question mark umbrella and sand shoes.

And celery on her lapel. And that better be what the hell happened.

They're not sandshoes :p
Also, I found a thing. I don't agree, as sexist as that sounds, and I'm only going to say one thing: Male Rani.

Yes, they are.

;)

I liked the finale enough, but I also did feel a high bar was set by the previous episode, so in a way it didn't exceed expectations. But it was good enough, I don't really have anything to complain about it.

Overall I enjoyed this season a lot more than I was expecting. Capaldi has been a very entertaining Doctor, and the highlight of each episode. It also did quite a bit to develop Clara in ways that the 7th series didn't, so that was appreciated. Here's hoping the 9th series will be better.

I had a theory I'm going to force down your eye-holes.

Santa is in the Christmas Special. I love it's Nick Frost, by the way. Anyway. Santa is in the Christmas Special. What if, at the end of the episode, The Doctor's present is.. OSGOOD COMING BACK TO LIFE?! You owe me Moffat!

Don't you get enough of annoying Tumblr fan girls without having them physically appear on the show?

Amen to that.

It's a pity Death in Heaven didn't have a moment where Osgood had to get over the the fact the Doctor wasn't a young "attractive" man anymore, because that was really all that was missing from her repertoire.

It appears as though there will be a clip from the Christmas special on Children in Need this Friday.

(Oh, man. CiN is auctioning of the Quattro from Ashes to Ashes this year! Heartbreaking! Also a Doctor Who set visit, but I'd rather be firing up the Quattro!)


Now that I think about it, I'm surprised they didn't. If she'd shown up earlier in the series, I bet they would have.
