That's not a spoiler, as I don't think its to do with the plot in any way, and also people have been banging on about it...

'My Doctor will make armies turn and run'. Doesn't just whet the appetite? Hoooopppefully the 'relationship' yet to come between the Doctor and River Song, whatever it turns out to be, wll be with David Tennant's Doctor, and we get to see him play this 'new' Doctor.The one thing that jarred for me was the assumption that you have to 'save' someone to a computer to enable them to have an afterlife. The most explicit the series has got with a view to matters spiritual and I feel that it shouldn't have crossed that line. I don't think the series should hold such views, as it is so inclusive and liberal. Wasn’t it GOOD?!And part of it was the Moff’s manifesto, surely. ‘My Doctor will make armies turn and run’.
