  1. Jenna Coleman is one of my favourite Dr. Who's companion.

  2. I'd be a pissed off spirit too if I found out my life was cut short at the hands of someone else.

    They both sound interesting today.

    1. She might put cyanide into someone's tea stashes, methinks :)

  3. These both sound interesting, but the second sounds like it really makes you think. I wonder what happens after she solves the murder and do your feelings really matter in death? You can't do anything about them.
