Further thoughts on ‘Silence In The Library’

So River Song is the Doctor’s wife, huh? She probably won’t be by the end of the next episode. Steven Moffat seems to specialise in doomed romances. It’s really been one long torture for Ten this season- everyone he can count as family dies, and I’m not really expecting the end of the series to be a entirely happy ending either. (Though I’ll be happy as long as they keep Martha, Donna and Mickey alive.) Did someone say this series would be lighter? Clearly not.

You know…on second thoughts, Silence In The Library might actually be scarier than Blink. Blink had jumpy sort of horror, where the monsters leapt out and scared you, but this just has a sense of real darkness about it, I suppose. The concept of ghosting still scares me. Brrrrrrr.

I suppose it depends on what scares you the most. Darn you, Steven Moffat, for your insistance on making everyday things scary.

In other news, I’m delighted for Barack Obama. :D
