    "Sir emergency! I think I've been run over by a cab!" Best line strax has ever said!!!

      Lady DaDa I like his line from deep breath. "And then we melt him with acid."
      "Sorry, that last part?"
      "And then we don't melt him with acid. Old habits."

      We'll not Realy, you see if he forgets (and by bitten you mean like he nees to get bitten by a thousand of those things) he can't behave like his predecessors, the regeneration cycle Chnaged his personality in every time he regnereates so even if he loses his memories, his personality wound be the same, and sadly his predecessors are basilcy dead so Therre are no chances he could revered to his old self due to the fact that the "soul" or "personality" of the old doctors are retained, Basicly if he gets bitten, he wound be confused with the hole how come he regenerated since he can't remmebr "when" he did, how did they even get that worm in the first place?

    Strax is adorable. I find it ironic that it's a Sontaran that's trying to get through to the Doctor. When a Sontaran thinks you're being apathetic, that's bad. When a so-called 'psychotic potato dwarf,' shows more empathy and concern than you, that's when you know there's a problem.

      I feel like every version of Clara(Barmaid, Dalek, and Zygon) was better acted, more interesting, and more likable than the mainline Clara we got.
      It also doesn't help that series 8 which focused the most of Clara's personal life had the worst Capaldi imo. Cold Alien Capaldi was just not as good as Rockstar or Professor Capaldi.

    Dan Starkey is a great actor. As Strax, he's loveable and funny. But watch 'The Sontaran Stratagem' and 'The Poison Sky'. As Commander Skorr 'The Bloodbringer', he's a brutally efficient killer who enjoys slaughtering Humans, calling it 'sport'. He's still as threatening as Skorr now as he was in 2008, even after seeing Strax.
    Please Moffat, give Starkey a role as a brutal Sontaran again. Strax is great, but I want to see a really scary Sontaran.
