"I can't be only one who looks forward to @scottm's 10 Things about #drwho almost as much as I look forward to Dr Who!" – Twitter user @JoshRochford
Everyone has questions about the seventh series of Doctor Who. These are some you may not have thought of:
• Why does Rory take such a circuitous route to find coffee in New York?
• What were the NATO war games that had the Russian submarine officers so spooked?
• Why does the Doctor keep going back to visit Amy and Rory when he hasn't done so for previous companions?
• What was wrong with a performance of "Jerusalem"?
• Would there really have been a black priest in the town of Mercy?
Taking a different look at the most recent series of BBC drama series Doctor Who, Ten Things About Who looks at every episode of Series 7, from Asylum of the Daleks to The Name of the Doctor, and finds ten points of discussion. Looking at Amy and Rory's relationship with each other and the Doctor, the rise of the Great Intelligence, the appearance and reappearance of Clara, issues of casting and historical contexts – nothing is off limits.
Based on the author's blog posts made after each episode's first showing, this collection has been revised and expanded.
