Talking of which ... in a weekend dominated by the secret seas, secret waves and underwater secrets, Doctor Who took a break from its main narrative with an episode displaying much me-heartiness aboard a haunted pirate ship helmed by Hugh Bonneville. Bonneville, more Master and Commander than Captain Birdseye, quickly got the idea of how to steer a space ship to safety.
