New Who Review for The Lodger

I knew I had seen this before and was glad to find out that I wasn’t crazy, it was a comic strip in the Doctor Who Monthly (issue 368) that Moffat liked and had turned into an episode of Doctor Who.

This is the filler episode for the season really. It doesn’t do much to advance the plot except one or two minor things. It takes place on Earth so there aren’t many exotic effects or sets to be built. It is mostly the Doctor on his own (which is a bit of a switch from episodes like Turn Left and Blink).

It was fun to watch and I thought that James Corden and Daisy Haggard did an excellent job as the young couple that finds the Doctor in the middle of their lives.

The rest of the review is behind the cut. I ask (cause I know it is tempting since we are close to the end) to keep any discussion only to the Lodger.

I am grateful for the rain today even with it screwing up our plans.
