Skin balloon: Ewwww.

I made a very unique facial expression at that part. And when Twelve put his skin mask on Clara. Urgh.

The preoccupation is annoying, because it makes the episode draaaag a bit on re-watch. I enjoyed it generally, but I dislike greatly being thwacked over and over with HE IS THE DOCTOR GUISE! AND HE IS OLD! DEAL!

Yes! He is! And I don't need to be told he's the Doctor, his performance tells me that! It feels condescending, because it's preaching to the converted in my case, but... I think that I am not the intended recipient of all the head thwacking, and that for some it may be quite necessary and emotional.

Regeneration episodes are tricky. I liked the Eleventh Hour better though because it just went for it and told a story instead obsessing over how Eleven isn't "too young," which was a big concern at the time. How, how fickle fandom.
