Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.

Not bad. I liked the "They're fish from space!" thing. I like how Moffat is using tech he's already introduced earlier in the series again (the perception filter). The ending seemed to lack any real punch, though.
I'll give it 4/5. Solid, but nothing spectacular.

No punch? It was explosive!
One bit I liked was that the Doctor apparently hasn't updated his driver's licence for a millennia or so.

Big giant "meh" from me. Nothing wrong with it, but it just never grabbed me at all. I find thinking back on it that I have only vague memories of it - it's like nothing stood out well enough to register. Eminently forgettable.
