Yes GDL is extraordinary, standing out in such an underwritten role in series one, I'm convinced that has been the making of the show, the way the writers went with it, especially the comedy potential.
I find it infuriating how RTD and the producers keep trying to sell an idea in their behind the scenes show, even if flogging a dead horse. Martha clearly didn't work, but they go on and on about her as if it were all planned, yet clearly she has been shoehorned in, really badly so on this weeks DW, where they even admitted there not being a role for her within the plot..
They do the same with Gwen, go on and on as if the viewers will eventually believe them. I find it pompous and annoying.
