YES. YES.
HA. The spaceship-looking mofo through the maintenance door that Song goes into?
THE ONE FROM THE LODGER. (s06e11.)
HA.

Also, the ex-FBI guy, Canton, is also Badger, from "Firefly". I didn't recognise him because the ex-FBI guy in this ep is a gravelly-voiced clever guy*, whereas Badger is a Cockney weasel.
* When Rory puts his hand on Canton's shoulder in the Tardis, and he is still in shock due to Tardis, but he also nods like "Yeah, I was listening". I like that he had awareness of his surroundings, and his surroundings included that he was in shock. "How long has Scotland Yard had this?"
In non-spoiler news, I have never quite cared about Amy -- not caring about being somewhat different from not caring for, mind. But Rory has really come to grow on me. From this ep:
The Doctor: Rory, would you mind going with [River Song into a dangerous-type place]?
Rory: Yeah. A bit.
The Doctor: Then I appreciate it all the more.
Rory: *sigh* *utterly reluctant* Hang on River... I'm coming too...

the BEST best part
Date: 2011-04-25 04:27 pm (UTC)But that's nothing compared to the awesomeness that is the guy who played Old Canton: that's Mark Sheppard's actual father, William Morgan Sheppard, who is the canonical "Hey, It's That Guy! (http://fametracker.com/hey_its_that_guy/)" of modern scifi TV: he was the Soul Hunter on Babylon 5, Blank Reg on Max Headroom, and about a billion other things (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0792003/).
