My only gripe there is his on earth does the child remote control the typewriter

That's right up there with, "how/why is he looking for his mummy if he was already dead when the nanogenes found him?"

My thinking was he was almost dead. What's a kid's last words going to be if he's almost dead? "I want my mummy". If that was the last thing coursing through his neurons, the nanogenes would pick that up and might think it "normal".

Yeah, that has to be it, even though that's not what the Doctor actually says.
