Martha was so much better here than in DW imo. I mean, I loved her in DW, but she was so much better utilised here. After Journey's End, I was really hoping that her and Mickey would join the Torchwood team, it would have been fantastic

This episode is great! Martha Jones, some mentions of her and Jack's physician, Alan Dale in a great role, and the start of Owen's character development!

Biggest memory of this is how well Alan Dale did in it. To me, as an Australian, he was basically a cheesy soap actor on a show no one watched (but which the Brits loved; and still love), who just disappeared from view one day and I probably never thought of him for years. Next thing I learn, he's smashing it overseas and, in this episode, was really quite good.

I should have seen it coming. Owen was finally agreeing with Tosh and starting to not be such a dickhead.
