Fun episode but the teselecta ending was quite a let-down. The Doctor is such a supragenius that, if using the teselecta would work, he would have thought of it immediately instead of moping around for episode after episode and then suddenly getting the idea after the teselecta captain asks him if there was anything he could do to help.
And the way Delaware assured everyone that it was indeed the Doctor even after Amy insisted it must be a clone "or something" and they burned his body without noticing he was a robot, it was just a complete cheat.
Moffat should have kept the Ganger Doctor secret and have him and the Real Doctor working together all season, then one of them dies at Lake Silencio… AND WE AREN'T TOLD WHICH. Much better, I think.
