It's a really warm, sunny day in Old England; Sweet Disposition by the Temper Traps is on the radio; I've made myself some pink lemonade using this recipe (and it tastes lovely!); I've finished my Tudors revision and am taking a little break before I head onto politics; the mid-series finale of Doctor Who is on tonight.

Yes.






I think this series, with Matt Smith, has been an emotional ride. He's exceeded my expectations and adoration for David Tennant, and although Tennant will always be my Doctor, Smithy has been incredible. One of the main things that have changed (noticeably the difference in Moffat and Davies' writings) is the lack of family ties for Amy. Which in a lot of ways doesn't ground her. But in a lot of other ways she gets a lot of freedom with Rory and the Doctor, and they've become this tiny surrogate family. Because families count.

I just can't wait.
