Haven't seen a discussion post for the new special, so I'll get the ball rolling. Thoughts, insights, bits you loved... let it all out.

It did feel a bit like we came in mid-episode. Was there any acclimation scene last season? She regenerates and he just gets on with it?

There is a Children In Need quicky that serves that function.

Ah, I did watch this. I actually assumed it was just a preview of part of the special.

There's a also a comic that serves as the direct sequel to the regeneration.

Ah, excellent. Thank you.

It's pretty disposable though. A fun adventure, but one that could have taken place at pretty much any point in the Tennant Doctor's run. The only thing tying it to Thirteen is the spoonic screwdriver getting destroyed - twice!
