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...

Mark Sheppard is not only Badger from Firefly, but he's also Romo Lampkin (the sleazy blind lawyer) from Battlestar Galactica.

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/).
