It was more the "I kill Nazis with my mad regeneration powers!" and using it to heal the Doctor that bugged me. I was dimly aware that there was some leeway, but hadn't seen the Christmas special, so my knowledge there may be lacking.
I didn't mind the Antibodies. They're a stupid security system, sure, but considering the ones we've seen in the past in Who (Smilers in Starship Britain come to mind) they make more sense. I don't tend to read Who as trying to be hard scifi, so I let things like that slide. Having a Thing That Fucks Up Devices and going "Oh well, these robots are going to kill us now". without at least some acknowledgement ("No, they're kryptonite robots." or the like) annoyed me.
