"I don't want to be a mousepad!" Wonderful. She looks so young and bouncing with enthusiasm when answering the Game of Thrones questions, I don't think I've seen her so expressively happy about a role for ages. Why did she do the interview? Her friendship with Mark Gatiss, or mellowing?

I don't know if they're friends, but it would be a good enough reason. I think mid-season Dr Who, the press/media are a bit saturated with the regular stars, so to have a name like Dame Diana's pop up really helps get the PR up to full speed again. I'm sure the BBC pushed her into promoting the episode.
I haven't enjoyed the last couple of series of Dr Who as much if I'm honest. The scripts are my problem, which IMHO aren't as exciting or as involving as the Tennant era. I did however, enjoy this week's, especially as Diana and Rachel were so wonderful in their respective roles. Rich.

The first Smith series was good but the last two poor (apart from the Neil Gaiman/Suranne Jones episode).'The Crimson Horror was certainly the best of this series and Mark Gatiss best script. Diana looked like she was enjoying herself spitting out lines of pure malice to the daughter she deliberately blinded, "Kindly do not claw and slobber at my crinoline!”, I couldn't help thinking of 'Brass' and some of it's blackest comedy moments. Just as good was Rachael with a moving performance as poor Ada.
