Who: The Rebel Flesh/The Almost People Preview

This week's episode marks the end of the standalone adventures we've been having recently where the TARDIS crew have been running away from fate, both with Amy's seemingly impending pregnancy and the Doctor's seemingly impending demise, and though perhaps the trailer didn't make that seem the case, here's why:
EYE-PATCHES: Make no mistake, the Eye-Patch Lady from Episodes 2 & 3 is back to close that non-existent panel in a wall once again, and that the trailer reveals this before the story may mean she plays a bigger role. What's for sure, expect big developments in the series arc over this two-parter.
AVATARS: Make no mistake, Matthew Graham's gothic adventure into the future takes its premise from James Cameron's 2009 science-fiction phenomenon, featuring humans who can protect themselves by entering near identical avatars called the Flesh. Trouble is, when the humans get their own bodies back, what if the Flesh bodies start to think for themselves...? There could be a revolution, and that's what it's all about.
CLIFF-HANGERS: We're just a couple of weeks away from the final episode of the first half of Series Six, A Good Man Goes To War, and that can only mean that the main arc will develop big time here and we're in for not just a mid-story cliffhanger, but also one to lead into Episode Seven and ultimately a crushing one for us to ponder over three months. Who was that little girl? Who is River? Can the Doctor be saved? Is Amy pregnant? Who is the Eye-Patch lady? What happened to the Silence? Why was their TARDIS on Aickman Road? Don't expect answers in these two, but expect more questions than ever...
