Written by Steven Moffat
Directed by Richard Senior
Rory: �Did you ever see Amy drive, Doctor?�
The Doctor: �No!�
Rory: �Neither did her driving examiner.�
Okay and for Comic Relief this year, we get not one but two little scenes with the Doctor, Amy and Rory and unlike the NTA sketch from January, this was a lot of fun to be honest.
The idea of two Amy Ponds might not appeal to everyone but given that this sketch also basically gave us a TARDIS inside a TARDIS, I�m willing to let it slide. The gang are trapped in a space loop and the second Amy appearing served as a decent cliffhanger as well.
So, what else happened in the first four minutes of this? Oh yeah, multiple jokes about driving, Amy�s skirt and the Doctor being a little skittish around the fiery red head. I get that some people might not have found them overly funny but I have to admit that I was giggling. Maybe the jokes were a little more innuendo than usual but some people accusing Moffat of sexism need to lighten up a little.
- Amy�s last line in this one was the same as her first line in The Big Bang.
- Loved Rory with the goggles and helping the Doctor to fly the TARDIS. It�s nice that they�re getting closer.
- TARDIS in a TARDIS � shades of The Time Monster and Logopolis anyone?
- The last time the show did something for Comic Relief was 12 years ago with Moffat�s The Curse Of Fatal Death.
An interesting start to a very fun tale. �Space� was a lot of fun and now it�s �Time� that I went and reviewed the second part. See what I did there?
Rating: 9 out of 10.
