SFX have a "spoiler free preview" containing 20 hints about what will happen in "The Rebel Flesh." So what are you expecting from the episode? My thoughts are under the cut.
On the one hand, Matthew Graham co-created "Life on Mars" and "Ashes to Ashes." This bodes well. On the other hand, Matthew Graham wrote "Fear Her" in the second series of Doctor Who. I love "Life on Mars" and "Ashes to Ashes." I fell asleep watching "Fear Her."
Having read the synopsis, I think this two-parter probably has a lot more promise than "Fear Her." Therefore, I'm going to predict an average or slightly above average, fairly traditional Who story.
I also predict that Marshall Lancaster will have a fairly limited role, and that I will find myself disappointed by this. I'm also expecting a "what the fuck?" moment at the end of the two-parter, since it's the penultimate episode before the summer break.
Thoughts?

Hoping Rory gets a decent part in this! Sometimes I feel that the focus is more on Amy instead of equal. Looking forward to a good cliffhanger between the two episodes as well!
