Hadn't had much time to post since Saturday, but my overall thoughts.
The episode was good though not excellent. The second half in particular didn't flow as well and had a few things that didn't work (how the streets sealed themselves up and how convenient and anticlimatic Donna losing her Time Lord ability).
The title sequence is growing for me, though it is missing something for me. I would agree with comments I've seen elsewhere that the logo animating in is very PowerPointy and basic.
My initial thoughts of the new TARDIS interior is like the comments people on here say about BBC's Studio B - it's big and too white and clinical. But having seen other promo pics of the lights in different colour schemes, I think it can work.
Though the headline rating is not spectacular, the highest viewing new drama launch this year, and beating I'm a Celeb on the day are decent credits to receive.
