Finally got around to seeing this, and another "meh" episode for me. After a very strong start to the season, it's started to bore me a little - even with the acting god that is Richard Briers involved.

Interesting it's taken this long for a thread on it, are other people getting as ambivalent as me to it?

I've been dealing with a crashed computer, so I just got around to watching it tonight.
My random thoughts on this episode are as follows:

It was pretty good, but I didn't like the way Jack & the team originally treated Owen in the board room. Completely unrealistic. It wouldn't have went down like that. I do however like the way Owen was telling his own story. That was cool. I do feel sorry for poor Tosh. It seems like she can never win. I was so glad they left the door open for Martha's possible return. :cool:

Loved this episode! I felt sorry for Tosh and Owen though. Owen is dead and Tosh still loves him but he can't return the love! :'(

I finally got to see this episode (we Americans sure do have to wait! now I understand how Brits and others feel about Smallville and SPN).

It was pretty interesting seeing Owen deal with his 'death'. I was fascinated (and more than a little grossed out at times; totally had to cover my eyes when Owen started snapping his finger!) by Owen's situation.

I have never liked Owen (usually refer to him as 'that jackass') but this episode I actually cared and actually felt a tug of affection for him. Luckily it quickly passed.

Best part? Ianto and Owen and the coffee! :p

Oh and another else feel Martha was totally superfluous? At least in this one for sure.
