211. (5.6) The Vampires of Venice

The Doctor and Amy pick up Rory at his stag party and head off to adventure in time and space! Rory actually starts developing a backbone here in regards to the Doctor but is still a push over for Amy. The conceit of what the "vampires" actually are is clever and in keeping with Who. Helen McCrory is delightful as the villainess and could easily be cast as The Rani. The location filming is gorgeous and feels authentic. The resolution is very Who-y reminding me of the ending of the Daleks take Manhattan with Tennant. The final second tease is ominous.
