S31 (5) 11 – The Lodger (repeat, BBC3 7.45pm Sat 19 January 2013)

What the Dan Martin Guardian Blogs thought at the time can be accessed here. (and congratulations @janetteb – you made your first comment on this blog).

In figures: Overnight figures were 4.6m, timeshift figures were 6.44m. Audience Appreciation Index (AI) was 87 (Excellent).

Of interest: This episode was placed aganst a world cup match between England and the USA, and featured Matt Smith’s football skills.

With guest appearances by James Corden and Daisy Haggard, this saw writer Gareth Roberts update a comic strip story he wrote that featured the Doctor sharing Mickey Smith’s flat for a while. As well as the general hilarity, the story saw the introduction of another time machine, and posed the question – who has that power?

Thoughts on this welcome.
