Double for me as well, I think this one is clear. Pass is obviously out when you have such a comfortable double available and 1NT is too risky. With AQ10x xxx Jx KJxx I'm probably bidding 1S but Arend tells me not to do it on hands this strong.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

One table overcalled 1NT, pard had

xxxx
xxx
ATx
Axx

and the limit is 8 tricks in spades (2 hearts, one diamond, two spades). so pard bid 2♣ and passed 2♠? sort of weird I thought. Other table went down two in 3♠, I forgot to look at their auction.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.
