This story starts really strong with a spectacularly realised empty London, with Clyde and Rani wandering about empty streets. The two robots are beautiful creations and quite scary. The plot starts to thin and dull a little as it gets fleshed out though. The thing that makes you feel a fuzzy feeling is the budding romance between Clyde and Rani - THEY ARE SO CUTE!! 15thDoctor View profile Like Liked 1 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
