I thought RTD did a great job of making all the characters sympathetic and real; they felt like people I might know. I felt really saddened by their fates. I thought Ursula's resolution was rather horrible, though - not in a sense that it was badly done, but I certainly wouldn't want that fate for myself or someone I loved! It was interesting to see how the Doctor's actions can affect people who don't even know him. I was a bit disappointed that the website Elton found wasn't Mickey's site. Still, I think they're doing a great job of addressing how real-world situations would affect the Doctor - with the accessiblity of the Internet he can't remain as anonymous as he used to, but he also has a new tool for fighting the bad guys.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />   I also enjoy seeing the show address what happens to those left behind with their observations on Jackie - in the past the series tended to ignore those sorts of family connections. It's nice to see the Doctor and his companion not functioning in a vacuum as far as relationships are concerned. According to the Confidential next week's episode should be pretty scary. They're definitely ramping up the tension for something nasty to close the season. It was interesting learning that part of the reason for the Doctor and Rose's absence from most of the episode was because they were off filming 'Impossible Planet/Satan Pit' at the same time. This season has 14 episodes rather than 13, but they weren't allowed any extra time in which to film it.Oh, and BTW - you do know the Absorbaloff was designed by a 9-year-old boy, don't you? He won a Blue Peter contest to design a Doctor Who monster. So cut him some slack.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
