I just really wonder at Danny. I mean, he could be really fascinating. Presumably, he went off adventuring, and now thinks better of it, and there could be this really interesting comment on British imperialism, but I think Moffat's afraid to go there.
I can't see him and Clara working out long-term. I actually know a guy who's quite a bit like that—he and I get along really well, but he has zero idea why I would ever want to travel. For him, he's happy doing his job and skateboarding and smoking weed and going up to his cottage when he's not working, and pondering the Deep Meaning of Life. I would tear my eyeballs out if that were my life. He's totally a person I love to hang out with, but I could never be in a relationship with him as our lifestyles just don't mesh.
I liked the episode, though. Capaldi + children = my heart doing funny things.
