Legend
The Doctor takes Martha home, to the night after episode 1. Just as he's leaving they see a report of a man who intends to "change what it means to be human". And, apparently, that means becoming young again. Naturally, not everything goes according to plan...
Good episode. Of note, we got our first look at Mr Saxon, and he definately knows the Doctor, by reputation if nothing else.
It strikes me that this season is about death. In the first episode
. In the second,
. In the third,
. In the fourth/fifth,
. And this week
.
Next week, no Doctor Who due to the Eurovision Song Contest
. Amazing, but true.
The week after that, Captain Jack is back... but the rest of the episode looked very very odd indeed. I can't wait!

It strikes me that this season is about death. In the first episode
the Doctor 'died' by exsanguination
he 'died' by having a heart stop
the Face of Boe died
the Doctor dies by being struck by lightning
the crux of the episode deals with a man's attempt to cheat death
Plus, of course, one of the Master's key defining qualities is he can no longer regenerate, and so is afraid of death. And now, Mr Saxon invests a great deal of money in a Regeneration Chamber. Hmm...
