Will this be the cursiest Doctor ever?

Don't know. In related news

Moffatt apparently getting annoyed by people who want a female doctor whereas Gaiman points out a woman would not have done because replacing Smith requires "someone harder and older and more dangerous" than Smith.

Yes... that said, I suppose all the characters were pretty 2 Dimensional. But I've never particularly liked Gina Bellman prior to her role in Leverage, she was plain awful in Jekyl and she was saved from being the most vapid female character by Kate Issit's one.

Sarah Alexander had all the good writing.

It might be a weakness of Moffat that he can only write well for a limited number of characters and can't do ensemble pieces well.
