Doctor Who

I'm a sucker for nostalgia... I do hope that in the upcoming episodes references are made to His other selves...

They don't have to be quiet as obvious as Peter Davison's impersonations in Castrovalva but subtle references / reminders will do!

"In the context of the show."

I didn't spot any continuity bloopers, but then again I've only watched it three times so far...

" continuity bloopers " - well he is a timelord , travelling back and fourth so thats that one explained ! - Re Tom Baker likenesses I thought that to - Tom Baker THE best Dr !

btw that was a really lucid , eloquent and fair synopsis / criteque of episode 1 taylor > starts a round of applause .......For once someone posted something intelligent readable and interesting , in the person section - shakes head in disbelief .

Now that its established itself 3 episodes in. What do we think now. Last weeks End Of The World was very good. I can understand why they went to Cardiff being a BBC Wales production (actually it was Swansea) for last nights but it didn't flow right for me. Only the Happy Medium gag worked for me.

Next weeks episode, however, looks awesome.

Thats the trouble.... the trailers are better than the episodes themselves!

But next weeks episode does look very, very good!

Three great episodes so far I think. The reviews are generally very positive, the viewing figures are high, the show's established itself again... It's all going well.

I enjoyed last night's - I think I narrowly preferred The End of the World though, probably because I liked the character of Jabe so much. I thought the supporting cast was still very good last night though, particularly Callow.

I'm sort of looking forward to the two-parter beginning next week - it'll be interesting to see how the longer stories work out compared to the one-shots we've had so far. But there is one extensively-previewed moment I'm absolutely dreading. Perhaps when seen in context it won't be that bad, but I'm not hopeful.

This is what I think of the episodes so far...

Episode One - funny

Episode Two - emotional (especially towards the end)

Episode Three - spooky

Looking foward to episode six though.

Isn't everyone? :-D

Taylor-Mayed: is Davros going to return either this series or next?

What do you think of the Tardis interior?

As far as I'm aware Davros isn't coming back, but you never know. I can't say I'll miss him if he doesn't - he's superb in his first story, but they should have left him alone after that I think. He became a progressively weaker character, and what's more his presence in stories always reduced the Daleks to the level of henchmen, completely sidelining them most of the time.

And I like the TARDIS interior very much.

Taylor-mayed, what you think of last weeks episode

I thought the two-parter just gone had a very weak first episode compared to the previous three, but improved massively in the second part. Still very enjoyable, but the least good overall so far.

How about the trailer for next week's episode last night though? Was that not just the best damn thing ever!?

I cannot wait for Saturday, I really genuinely cannot wait.

Quite possibly the greatest trailer I've ever seen in my life. Looks very dark and menacing. If you have something planned for next Saturday cancel it.

Had to turn over last night's episode, as it was so poor. Missed episodes 2 & 3, but after last night's weak effort, I'm not too fussed.
Feeble acting lets it down, and a really badly cast Doctor. Not surprised he's pulled out of the show, as he seems to be as bored with it as I am.
