+ Still liking Bill and Bill/Twelve are great. I love the mix of oblivious and perceptive Bill is. I mean she misses really obvious things (such as when she first entered the TARDIS, or what's in the pods) but other times she's so perceptive. I really loved her noticing the sign.
Bill fits in perfectly amongst her fellow Companions - curious, happy to run into dangerous situations, doesn't listen to the Doctor when he tries to keep her safe, wanders off and finds interesting and useful danger, compassionate, interprets the Doctor for others... I loved her telling the Doctor "Stop trying to keep me out of trouble." That's basically the Companion anthem.
+ Twelve describing himself as "scary handsome genius from space". He's not wrong.
+ I loved the emoticon badges.
+ Okay, I realise that the woman was under a lot of pressure and was both scared and grieving but starting off with 'everyone you love is dead' was probably not the best choice! Like, ease her into it with 'the robots are killing everyone who isn't happy so do your best to pretend' at the very least.
+ I can't believe Bill and the Doctor lost track of the kid. They weren't even worried that he wandered off despite the killer robots. Worst babysitters ever.
