The reminder that the Doctor stole his Tardis is interesting, but surely we can equate that more closely with stealing a flying bus than wilfully staging Pink Panther-esque thefts of multi-million pound historical artefacts.
You've gone and reminded me of something else that bugged me about the episode; the Doctor goes and ruins said multi-million pound historical artefact, with no later consequences at all! I look forward, then, to the episode where he travels to Iraq and participates in the looting and destruction of the museum there. Ah, well, that's a bit of hyperbole, maybe. But still, I thought that part of the plot was particularly poorly conceived.
