Poor Martha, all in lurve and the Doctor doesn’t see it.

Reference to Mr Saxon already!

Big reception reminiscent of that scene in the Eighth Doctor movie.

Martha’s mother has the Doctor beaten!

Lots of flashing lights and switches, even smoke rising, great stuff!

And the man in the box is… Mark Gatiss!

“What it means to be human” – echoes of last week’s plot, such as it was. (Also dodgy DNA science.)

Ah, he’s got the munchies and the Doctor knows why…

Smart Martha, picking up DNA samples!

Hmm, old woman not attractive to newly young man. Not sure if I approve. But he’s going to die, I bet; and her too.

Martha and Doctor in the lab, very sweet.

Yep, Dr Lazarus is going to die.

Oh, I didn’t expect that! Cool!!!

Now he’s back again, right as rain, having had his snack. And Tish is next on the menu…

Sinister waiter! Who is he? A minion of Mr Saxon?

Yay, a monster that doesn’t look crap!

And escaping down a tall building – like last week, only better.

Doctor shouting at the monster – great!

Running down the corridor – great!

Martha has the sonic screwdriver – cool!

Doctor blows up the lab.

Martha’s mother and the sinister waiter again. Can’t lip-read but did he say “he’s not human”?

Yep switching the machine on – will we get Chris Ecclestone back? No, but we get a “reverse the polarity” phrase. Good.

Dead Mark Gatiss. But for how long?

Martha’s mother unable to articulate her feelings.

Yes, with a name like Lazarus of course he is going to come back from the dead.

Much better lines in this episode. Doctor v Lazarus on death and immortality. “No such thing as an ordinary human.” “If you live long enough, the only certainty is that you’ll end up alone.”

Martha and sister up the tower. Very hunchback. And the organ as well! Fantastic!

Killed by a discord. (And a long drop.)

Martha saved not quite by the bell, but by her sister.

Goodbye scene again? Surely not.

“One more trip?” But she puts it well. Doesn’t want to be an extra. Not really “just a passenger” – so what, then?

Oooh. Shiny trailer!

Anne points out that for once it was just a mad human scientist, no aliens for a change. (Though Mr Saxon…)

I’m travelling next week, so I’m glad it’s postponed to the week after.
