Great episode
Nice to see that his son did survive in the end.
Also nice to see that he got go on his own new adventure
This woman with the eye patch... Who is she?? Seems shes going to be like the cracks last season... quick shots here and there, small snippets of information...
Also looks like Amys pregnancy test will be an ongoing theme, it obviously concerns the Doctor
Overall, a slight step down in suspence from last weeks episode (but thats to be expected), but still keeping the standard high
Nest weeks episode looks interesting
Spoiler:The Ood are back!! =)
But I think it will be a one off episode, I dont think
Spoiler:The voice that says Ive killed hundreds of Timelords is going to be related to the Big Bad
Or maybe it will be a set up episode for the big bad
Have to wait till next weekLast edited by Teddybrown; 07 May 2011, 09:56 AM.

Just want to emphasise though. Great stand alone (and very clever) episode. The use of colour for the 'Siren', the medical cyan colour very common of hospitals. Loved it!
Roll on next week!I write articles/features/reviews for I'm With Geek.com now. Check out our stuff if you get a minute!

Excellent episode with a wacy sci-fi twist on what looked like a pedestrian historical yarn. Didnt see the twist with the siren being an EMH coming. No real threat this week, just that classic Who trope of misunderstandings and investigations...very spooky and engaging. Plus we got more of Eyepatch Lady
And yes, the sinister voice in Gaiman's episode is a one-off character called "House", no connection to the big bad, the whole thing seems more like Lungbarrow on Acid.

Eyepatch Lady said "You're doing fine, you're doing just fine" or something to that effect.. And if that was followed by "I'm going to need you to push, on three"... it wouldn't seem completely out of place..
Eyepatch Lady is a midwife Which would fit with the pictures of Amy with a baby and the whole is she/isn't she pregnant storyline.. The one thing that doesn't quite fit is why the TARDIS is taking so long to confirm it. I know it's for dramatic effect and to keep people guessing, but it really shouldn't take so long!
Is it possible for Amy to be dreaming the current adventures while in some hospital with pirate-themed midwives? Or is she both there and in the TARDIS at the same time? The TARDIS can't get a definite answer because both answers are true..

My brother's girlfriend thinks she's Amy's future midwife (which would explain how she always peeking in like a nurse and saying things like 'You are doing so well! Keep going!'), but I don't thinnk Amy's pregnant with the Doctor's child. I think the Silence implanted her with something as she was trapped in their lair for 'many days' (Day of the Moon), maybe a hybrid of human/Time Lord DNA - That's why the TARDIS scanner is having a hard time determining it lol whatever it is could be giving her visions of the eye patch lady, making her (and the viewers) think she's pregnant.I write articles/features/reviews for I'm With Geek.com now.

Also, Im just trying to figure out the secret message on the Doctor Who site from episode 3, theres been one after episodes one and two on the fourth dimension page
EDIT:The message has already been posted, but Ill put it here too
All the secrets you seek can be found here on the Webb.
We found your message! You're alive! But what secrets d'you mean my friend?
I mean I glimpsed him! and May the gods help him or perhaps you can
Those are from the first 3 episodes

I liked this episode, but there's not really much to say about it now it's done.
One point that bugged me and the friends I watched it with. There were two pirates in the mutiny, one got cut and the other ran off with the treasure only to burn himself. What happened to the other one? He seemed to disappear from the episode until the end, was there a scene where the Siren got him that somehow me and my friends all blanked?
Also, I don't understand why the Siren was keeping all the crew members, surely she should've let them go after she cured them?

We will have to wait and see on that
Also, on the disappearing man, I dont think that was the silence, but it could be one of those where your left thinking it was a continuity error, but then it turns out it was all planned, because has Moffat ever made a continuity error??
Just because its rare for Moffat to make a continuity error, Im going to go with it being something to be answered later, but I cant think how it would be answered
I cant decide yet whether its a continuity error or planned, so we will just have to wait and see
