To the Last Man

Utter classic. Superbly spooky with all the ghost stuff, and with so many fantastic character moments for Tosh. At times it reminded me of a Moffat story with the whole bootstrap paradox and two times co-existing at once, which is high praise indeed.

Last Man Standing, or whatever it wants to be called, reminds me a lot of Out of Time, but with slightly more focus. I'm not sure that extra focus on Tosh and her temporary love interest really pays off here, even though it should. Tosh *absolutely* would benefit from more character development at this point in the series, but I find this episode really results in something very, very generic.

The World War One soldier and his situation does stand out a little bit, but otherwise this felt like boring romantic nonsense that doesn't really go anywhere, but sure gave the production a lot of excuses to just really stretch everything out here. Ultimatley, I'm not a fan, but it does fit in with the larger trend against Series One, which had its moments but also some truly awful content to it, Series Two also has its moments of strength but otherwise just fields a lot of boring content. Say what you will about Series One, but I rarely went into episodes not remembering anything about them, for better or worse. For Series Two, it's practically the norm that I don't remember anything about these episodes that aren't part of the larger narrative arc and have to revisit it all over again.
