Mmmmmmmmmm. She always looks perfect.

Shame they couldn't have got a truly decent bloke back for playing the Doctor. Tennant was okay, but he wasn't a patch on Ecclestone.
Ecclestone?! I'd rather see Richard Madeley play the part!

Hate to be realistice, but surely "Blue amends" refers to a blue page in the script is a change?
Most likely, but now we're all looking for a twist, that surely the best way would be to write a story without one?
No i was thinking that Tennant might be in it but who sayes he is playing the doctor?

Where are the gallows? String 'im up. Scandalous!!!! The Dr had a bit of attitude with Ecclestone. Was definitely the best of all the doctors.

Yes not fantastic although some interesting lines and comments.

It's that traditional "first adventure for the new companion" episode that you always get. Explains all the rules of the Tardis, the Doctor, saving people etc and defines what the relationship/link is between Doctor & companion.

Dire effects. That 'moped' zipping backwards and forwards was a throwback to how effects were done 20 years ago. Truly crap.

Obvious question...how coud Clara could fly it between asteroids without ever having had a lesson? Getting a tad pissed off with the overuse of the Sonic Screwdriver as well. Its capability to open impossible doors was just lazy scripting. Indeed, it was then used to hold open the door and fight the aliens....

Come on Moffat, up your game.

Just me that liked tonights episode then? Then again I'm one of the few that really likes Matt Smith as well, Eccleston was shockingly bad in my eyes, Tennant was the best for me but I've only watched the modern stuff.

But looks likes she'll be back next week unless he's about to bump into another version of her on a submarine?

We don't need it though do we? If push comes to shove, give the glamorous assistant a Tardis safety card & let her mug up in the library. As for the singing, a tenner says that's already in the forthcoming Dr. Who prom at the Albert Hall.

I think I'll leave it to the Simpsons to sum up tonight's Doctor Who.


Comic Book Guy:

Worst ... episode ... ever.


Homer:

WE don't need it, no. But the Beeb has to acknowledge that this may be a lot of people's first DW series, so they need to go through the motions.

Pre 2005: Good stories and crap effects.
This one: Good effects and a really, really crap boring story.
