IIRC, weren't you someone saying I can't hate it last year because I don't watch it anymore? But now I do watch it, and think it's crap, you think I shouldn't watch it if I don't like it! How very convenient!
I really don't see anything remotely "classic" about this week's. Why, because of the historical setting? If anything, Smile seemed more classic-style to me, marred mainly by a typical rushed ending. Thin Ice was turgid NuWho/Moffat era "style" all over.
