From what I remember, it is quite a good episode. Sadly, I havn't watched it since its first airing due to this being the one episode that makes me "hide behind the sofa." It is the only episode I can't watch.

True, this is one of the ones that terrify people in such a wonderful way.

The next one is also fun, especially when Jack mentions that a special weapons factory was destroyed. The Doctor replies that he visited there, once.

No, this isn't the nice scary sort. It is the horrible scary kind.

If there's isn't at least one serial per series that gets the kids off the sofa and down behind it then Doctor Who isn't doing its job properly. Besides, Empty Child/Doctor Dances is pretty mild compared to, say, Blink or Midnight IMO.

So funny but also poignant, especially given that doctors particular history.

Which makes it all the more powerful. I love at the end Chuck basically says if he showed all the good parts, he'd just be showing the episodes themselves. 8)
