I need to watch it again as I could only half-watch it with lots of distractions. However, I liked most of what they did with the "no-necks".

Nice new uniforms for them - they look good in blue. Grey was so not their colour!

I'm not sure about the Haka - that didn't seem very Sontaran to me.

A couple of other observations - the Doctor and the squash ball hitting the Probic Vent. That shows he is a good shot, the cricket ball in 1914 (last Season) wasn't a fluke at all.

The Sat Nav idea - a little bit too much like the Cybermen and the Ear Pods for me.

I liked the Mother ship idea - launching all the spherical Sontaran ships. Very Star Wars.

Donna's family - the Doctor leading the Time War

As I said, it needs watching again. For an episode that was really just a preamble to next week, it did manage to add a lot of back story.
