See? I'm 50, so the idea of being a grandparent at 55 is hard for me to
wrap my head around. My brother who is just three years younger has a kid
who is turning 15 next year, and I've two friends who are five - six years
older than me with ten - fourteen year olds. So from my perspective?
Grandparents are in their 70s. ;-)
I know a lot of people with step-parents, and none of them call their step
parents Mom, they call them by their names -- so agree, it was a bit off.
But I think the writers just found it convenient if SOMEONE shot the
Doctor's enemies, so long as it wasn't the Doctor. It's pretty difficult to
find ways out of the situations they get themselves into without violence.
And yet, here they managed to prove you wrong. No good comes from a gun. ;-)
