Thanks nutmeg. That was a really easy review to write for some reason, they aren't always.

Your point about the tiny vocal chords and eardrums is very interesting. I don't know how accurate scientifically the story was (I'd guess not very), but someone (in "About Time" which is a series of books analysing each episode) did suggest that they got the pitch of the voices the wrong way round.
I'm a different kind of fan to those reviewers and I can tell that you are too - we know that everything doesn't make perfect sense (like the scale of the giant props) but it doesn't spoil our enjoyment of the story.
I do think that the tightly edited combined final episodes is probably for the better. The reconstruction on the DVD makes it a little drawn out. You didn't miss the death of the cat though, it was completely edited out of the final version, so it may or may not be canon.
 
Late to the game (on holidays) but here is the Dr Who Advent Calender for 2015

The Doctor's built a snowman for a nice Christmas surprise,
Using a few items which you may just recognise.

Day 2
Although a dinosaur's breath isn't known for being pleasant,
At least this one has coughed us up a delightful Christmas present!

Day 3
Even though the Half-Face Man is always up to no good,
We're lucky that he's here today to light our Christmas pud!

Jenny poses for a picture but there's something that she's missed,
Vastra isn't painting pictures - she's writing out a list!Day 4.jpg

Strax prepares for Christmas but what is that I see?
He really shouldn't use grenades to decorate the tree!

Day 6
Clara hopes to find a soldier underneath her Christmas tree,
Let's hope it's Danny Pink and not the one we see!

The idea of a good Dalek may be considered shocking,
Especially when one decides to hang up a Christmas stocking.

Day 9

Scary knight, robot knight,
Laser's armed, firing bright...

To see a festive robin is always a treat upon the eyes,
But the sight of this one comes as quite the big surprise!

Day 11

If you listen very carefully you might be able to hear,
The singing of Christmas carols bringing joy and cheer.

No - not mine a guy "named" Willy Phantom on Gallifrey Base does it every year & I just like to share
Day 13


What's lurking behind this advent door is really hard to say,
I suppose we'll have to be patient and wait until Christmas day!
 
Day 14
The Teller is under the mistletoe waiting for a kiss,
But for some strange reason everyone's giving it a miss!

If you want to go back in time I also posted these last year.

Day 15
A Skovox Blitzer has arrived but as you can probably see,
It doesn't really know how to light up a Christmas tree.

Day 18
It's Christmas morning and Perkins's face is full of glee,
He's found just what he wanted underneath his Christmas tree.

Day 20
The Doctor tries to join the fun but he can't believe his eyes,
The outside of the Tardis has shrunk right down in size!

If you're looking carefully then you just might see,
Something is hiding inside this Christmas tree...
