They had me right up until it was revealed that Suzie was in fact a black-and-white no shades of grey cartoon villan who had concocted an elaborate plan over the course of 2 years to have herself resurrected using technology that in her lifetime had only ever been used to resurrect corpses for the space of 2 minutes. Strangely, they lost me at that point. Pity, too, cos I was sort of enjoying it up until that.
Oh, and in case you hadn't heard. Gwen is OMG THE BEST OF ALL OF THEM. Cos RTD and co tell us so! Despite the fact that she was, oh wait--bloody useless in this one.
*yawn*
Whatever.
And I am disappointed by the Ianto/Jack, for it came out of nowhere, and made no sense character-wise (mostly in terms of Ianto's manpain, which was totally non-present in this ep). And that saddens me. Because they had potential.
However, I would be infinitely cheered if Yasmin Bannerman as Swanson joined the cast. Because she had honest to God chemistry with Barrowman, and was by far the best thing in this episode so far as I'm concerned.
Poor Tosh. If Owen's the office bike, I'm sure she was certain if she just waited her turn, she'd get a free ride. But Gwen jumped the queue, the bitch.
And the song they use at the end?
"Gorecki" by Lamb. Coincidentially, I've not only had it on my Doctor Who series one mix, but I had a Nine/Rose vid-in-progress.
Dammit.
*sigh*
Oh well.
