Nice to see the new gadgets too - in case you didn't know, the hatpin, the glove and the lorgnette were the three winners in a Blue Peter contest to design equipment for Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax.
The problem is that the first full episode of a new Doctor and to a lesser extent, new series is always something of a shakedown exercise. I expect to see improvements and since I really enjoyed this episode - I'm in for the duration.

Does anyone know an inexpensive seamstress? I really want a copy of Clara's Victorian outfit.
