I rather like the old enemies, probably due to my growing up with them, but the weeping angels are also back - "Blink" being one of my all time favourite episodes.

I do agree about the assistant, though considering the transformation comment about his once again managing to avoid being a "Ginger" (pronounced with a hard G), I find her being a redhead somewhat ironic. A rather nice irony though.




PS
As an aside, I found the Borg episodes of STNG and Voyager the only ones really worth watching, though given the subsequent Enterprise episode I can't understand how they knew nothing of them.
