I really enjoyed this story. It was well written, with plenty of suspense, lots of running and an interesting concept. It had bad guys who weren't bad, just misunderstood and frightened (a classic Doctor Who story), and blurred the line between the good guys and the bad guys nicely. On first watching it, I didn't see the clues that Amy was a 'ganger', and was surprised at the end, but watching it again, the clues are there. A masterful double-episode, 5/5 from me.

Giving this a 3. Really didn't like part one, but part 2 was definitely better.

Hannah, did you forget to actually vote? There isn't a three on the poll.
I went with a 5. This is the story I was dreading the most and it turned out to be one of my favourites of the season so far. I love the classic 'base under siege' feel to it and I think the stuff with the gangers was great. It nearly got marked down because of some dodgy acting by the guys though.

I went with a 4. The ending was a bit lame, because everybody could have been saved if they hadn't stood around chatting, and monster Jen brought back horrible nightmares of monster Lazarus, but other than that it was a good strong two parter

I gave this a three. I enjoyed part two a lot but there were a few too many plot holes and the first half took a while to get going

I went with a four for this one. It was a good story but there were a few bits and pieces, most have been mentioned above, that made me drop a point

I gave this a four too. The slow start and the bad CGI was where it lost a point

Another season 6 story, another 5 from Vampyros Adric. Atmospheric, brilliant scripting and a jaw dropping denouement. Subtle themes of racism, slavery and what it is to be human without being cloying or overly preachy. Yes, the "Ganger Monster" was a wee bit silly, but I can forgive that. This left me gasping, desperately aching to see A Good Man Goes to War. Blimey, season 6 has some good stuff in it.
