are they Ood? I wondered if they made too many of those umbilical cords as the clone in the last 2 episodes had one as well.

What did you think? Do you care for the Sontarans? Was there any tension there at all for you?

They are indeed Ood. If you click on it it will bring up a better/larger picture.
I enjoyed The Sontaran episodes, always glad to see Mike from The Young Ones getting work.
But felt it was stronger than previous stories, although I did like the Peter Capaldi episode too.
Not a brilliant series so far, but the standard set last season was rather high. Except the Dalek episodes, written by the same person who did this seasons Sontaran story.
Spent Bank Holiday Monday listening to the 2 podcasts from last week, sitting by the canal trying to persuade the ducks to kiss Andrew Collins. They swam away. Whilst shaking there tails. The Teasing Duck Whores....

Oh bollocks, what a typo, that should read Shaking Their Tails

the duck thing is spreading...now he wants to be a kingfisher as well! (listening to Banter now)
A daughter for the Dr this week, an interesting addition to the canon...

The ducks are clearly a gateway drug. Leading to stronger and stronger birds, if this isn't caught in time we'll see photos of Mr Collings slipping out of nightclubs with magpies.

We had an idyllic walk in Tintern, along the banks of the Wye, under a canopy of trees today, such a variety of birdsong, it was lovely.

I liked Dr Who this week, you seen it yet? Hope you're enjoying the weekend :-)

Sounds like a lovely way to spend a few hours. I spent a week in Ayr at the start of the month, most of which was spent by the River Ayr, just listening to the birds with Cherry Blossom in full bloom.
Enjoyed Doctor Who, it seems to be getting stronger as the series goes on. Maybe the return of Martha helped.

Three letter rivers are the best!
Yes, I do like Martha, although I don't know why she had to go all blubby, and why couldn't the fishman swim? Does one girl have to cry each episode? Hope that Jenny will be causing trouble and need future visits, I liked her too.
Is it canon that he's had children before? I'm a novice in such things...I liked David Tennant's performance this week, less shouting more depth.
