Absolutely loved it. My favourite so far this series. Actually felt a bit like one of my RPG sessions put onscreen

I enjoyed it, but the ending seemed rushed to me - could have done with another 5-10 minutes.

Unusually gadget heavy; the memory worm returns (I thought it didn't work on Time Lords), the D-shift bomb, the teleporters et cetera. I wonder are the tellers related to the Nimon. And I agree with misterharry that it could have done with a little more time, or some trimming in the middle, for a better ending.

Yep, I agree it was a little predictable, but enjoyed it regardless. I don't think I've actually disliked any of the episodes in the series so far though.

A really great episode! The Architect's identity was a bit obvious, but the story had enough nifty ideas in store to be thoroughly enjoyable. I really loved the Hustle-like pacing and the Teller is a really great creature concept.

Fairly " meh" for me. The second best so far, right behind "Listen" on my list. Not terribly impressed by series 8 yet, but it's beginning to turn up.
I was really into the episode at first, then I stopped to think about the plot and realized the plot was utter nonsense. And not the good Doctor Who nonsense. Having said that, though, it really wasn't that bad. But it could have been so much better.

Loved it. This one actually felt like there was a purpose and the jokes were hilarious. I especially loved the ending. "Robbing a bank!" Had me laughing so hard. Looking forward to "The Caretaker" should be interesting when Danny finally meets The Doctor.

I really wanted to like this one but it wasn't near as fun or clever as the concept seemed to promise.

It was ok to me but I felt that frankly it could have been a lot better. Felt like a filler episode.
