Doctor Who 7x12

eeeee that was delightful! GIVE ME THE JENNY AND VASTRA AND STRAX SPINOFF. GIVE IT TO MEEEEE. *grabby hands*

+ I loved the focus on Jenny in this episode, it was great to see her doing things on her own. And I love Strax and Vastra and Clara and the Doctor and EVERYONE IS GREAT YAY.

+ Eleventy's stupid face and his complete delight in the resourcefulness and goodness of the people around him, it's so precious.

+ Clara was having a great time, and being a clever cloggs with the chimney and the chair. Yeah, she's totally the boss.

+ Mrs Gillyflower and Ada were both delightful in very different ways. Diana Rigg as a total meglomaniac was really enjoyable, and oh, Ada. Given the show's horrible horrible record with portrayals of disability (evil overlords in wheelchairs everywhere) it was great seeing a disabled character who was sympathetic and heroic and didn't die and didn't need to be cured, either. She's splendid just as she is.

+ I'm intrigued by the theme in these last few episodes of the Doctor being a monster, but monsters aren't so bad, and they can love and they need love.

+ CLARAAAA. I love that she keeps going home without it being a big deal, it's such a change. And oh man, those kids are awesome, I look forward to seeing more of them!

I can't believe that next week it's Neil Gaiman's episode, and then suddenly it's the finale! Where did the time go?
