I thought it was funny that people kept saying “We live in miraculous times,” but never quite verbally acknowledged that the miracle was actually a terrible thing. And the idea of burning people into ashes (after heavily sedating them, of course - I don’t know if they were going to do that but it would have been the proper way to do it) seemed like a good one to me. And Jack Harkness got a raw deal, more than once actually. They didn’t have to sacrifice his grandchild, they could have involved more people in the solution and spare him. Everybody acted like a complete moron. It was a good idea but the execution left a little to be desired. I will say I enjoyed it though. A good yarn.
