Well, that did pretty much everything I was hoping it wouldn't - and yet still somehow managed to be rather wonderful. Rusty - in your own maddeningly inconsistent way, you were brilliant.
There were still bits I could have done without - the flashback montages, for starters, and Tennant-does-Tate - but yes.
And, and this one has only just come to me - the Shadow Proclamation bit went nowhere! Weren't they meant to be turning up with all the armies of the universe? Probably stuck in the space-office doing paperwork, I suppose, it's political correctness gone mad...
I thought they might be mentioned too. And the medusa cascade being one second out of sync wasn't mentioned again either. But I thought it was brilliant.
iirc, there was reference to the anomaly surrounding the place making it the right staging area for Davros' plan. But it went online at about 3 am, so I was a bit to exhausted to be paying too much attention.
I wonder if that's not a little bit of set-up for someone to pick up if they want - maybe even something else for the Doctor to be on the run from, if they wanted to go down that route.

- Donna being the Doctor
- The kiss

That confused me immensely. But I absolutely loved it. And got teary at the final Bernard Cribbins scene.
