Listen (to me!) I feel unesay. Not because posting my inchoate, exhausted and half-drunk reactions to my first-watch of "Listen" makes me feel like an obsessive fan desperate to share his thoughts with all and sundry — although, clearly, that's what I am — but because I distrust the first reactions I so desperately want to share. Yet here I am. Sharing my feelings instead of my thoughts, my knee's jerks rather than my practiced dance steps. Steven Moffat has written an episode of Doctor Who that, on first viewing, I enjoyed quite a lot. I liked it. But — or should that be and so ...? — I feel uneasy. I am afraid of what judgement sober second thought may call down upon my first reactions. So for now and for the record, those who care to read can find those first reactions here. I liked it; what did you think? And do you think you're opinion will change when (if) you watch it again? |
