I'll give the article a read through now and add comments below as I come across them. I really loved this episode, although I always thought they should have done more with the whole last centurion business. Anyway, I'm going off topic from the review, let me get back to that reading! :) Miyagawa (talk) 22:29, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Lead: "6 million 696 thousand viewers" - I think it'd be better just putting it as 6.696 million viewers, or "around 6.7 million viewers". Plot: Caitlin Blackwood in brackets needs to be added after the seven-year-old Amelia Pond is first mentioned.

"Her touching the box allows it to revitalise Amy and let her out" - Not sure about the flow of the sentence - perhaps something along the lines of "She touched the box, allowing it to revive Amy and release her."

Filming and effects: Might want to mention that Brangwyn Hall is in Swansea, otherwise with it directly following Port Talbot, it makes you think that it's actually there as well.

Those are the only problematic issues with the article. Obviously an image in the infobox would be nice, but not necessary for the GA status. Miyagawa (talk) 22:56, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing! I've fixed everything above. I love this episode as well (it might even be my favorite) because I'm a big time travel fan (and there is nothing paradoxical about the Doctor giving Rory the screwdriver). Glimmer721 ^talk 17:18, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
