50 Years of Doctor Who

OH MY GIDDY AUNT!

As busy as I've been, it's taken me a whole week to finally get to it, but last week's episode, "Empress of Mars", was the best Doctor Who I've seen in a long time. It not only brings back the Ice Warriors in a big way, but is an extremely entertaining pastiche of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Steampunk and the original Who, with a major tie-in to a long-standing question about the Ice Warriors' conversion from bad guys to good guys, and includes an actor from the original storyline returning in the same role.

Overall an excellent episode. If you haven't seen it you're really missing out.
