The Runaway Bride finally gets herself a husband and takes care of cookie-cutter kids in Star Trek Generation's "Nexus".

The Tenth Doctor, River Song & Co clearly survived last week’s cliffhanger, but Donna is stuck in a world of her own. It seems she’s in a hospital run by Dr Moon, who’s part psychologist, part match-maker, and soon she's set up with an eligible mute.

In the library, however, Doc and and the Scooby Gang of archaeologists are running around in circles, while trying to establish contact with both Cal and the Vashta Nerada.

Sunset is upon them, and the shadows are closing in. Zombie astronaut action ensues.

We managed to cram a surprising amount of philosophising into our review of this epic conclusion to the double-feature that started with Silence in the Library. To quote Drew, "there are jugs, but it makes you think".

Among so many other topics, we try to answer such questions as:

• Does Lee have an actual job in Dr Moon's Nexus?

• Do the Vashta Nerada have a swarm mind?

• Did the Doctor condemn River Song to perpetually ask for ice-cream in hell?

• Will Miss Evangelista take over the internet or turn into Kylie Minogue sparkles?

• And how intimate can you get with a courtesy unit?

Only one way to find out — listen to our review now!
