I also wonder what the David situation is, because I know for fact that he is in the next christmas special as I saw the filming of a bit of it. (Twas in Gloucester, so me and my friend went to see how close we could dare each other to get... we did the same for HP...
)
And it all makes me very distraught, and why oh why couldn't they just do it as a one weekend special sort of thing, you know, like one episode on saturday, one on sunday, the wait may just kill me.
Was a very good episode though, and I love Rose watching the ex-companions transmission with jealousness... though I was expecting (and still am) Owen to come rescue Gwen and Ianto, and their go down fighting comment caused a major squee in me.
