Hmm. I enjoyed the last one, but this one was a bit of a damp squib if I'm honest. :sad:
Thought it was quite good actually. Part one building the scene for parts two and three, did the job it needed to.
Timelords reappearing, wonder if Bernard Cribbins is another hidden one?
I thought it was quite disjointed, and they tried to cram too many different elements in. I have a friend who's a successful playwright, and David Tennant's #1 fan (he has a massive crush on him) - and even he was dissapointed. The waters of mars was a cracking episode, and set the bar quite high. Yesterday's couldn't make the mark, but hopefully the next will be better.
dr who was gr8 when it was first out.
the gadget they used was very advance those days.
now dr who has been left be-hind.
n he has no new toys to keep me interested.
my vibrater has more buttons than any of his tools.
i was bored to be honest hope part two is better - is there a part three as well??
I wasn't that impressed either, have just watched Dr Who Confidential and that was very good.
Must admit that I'm not overly struck on the new doctor, but the trailer for the first episode looks very very intriguing; but then I'm a sucker for a vampire :[

Dr Who - my thoughts:
The first time I saw CE (Chris Eccleston) I thought "Wha? And where-the-flip is my regeneration scene??" (We never saw a post-one-off-Paul McGahan-movie-to-new-series-regeneration" scene. Eventually CE proved to be a very effective Doctor. Would have loved him to stay on for more than one year but hey,powers that be.
My second thought, on seeing the debut of David Tenant was "Who the flip is this boffoon?", well, the boffoon proved me VERY wrong as he's shown to have made the role his own, the first person who could steal a role since Tom Baker (yes, MY Doctor!)
My next thought, on seeing the new TARDIS (not "Tardis") interior was to quote Patrick Troughton's 2nd Doctor "I see you've redecorated - I don't like it!" - it looked like someone's pre-puke guts after a night of too many after-shock red mixes. It has however proven to match the unpredictable instability of The Doctor for a more modern viewer.
Matt Smith, 11th Doctor - what will he bring to the table? With much luck he'll have done his research and hopes to avoid (in my opinion) the ineffectiveness of Peter Davidson (sorry PD!) but has a wealth of information behind him ro realise as he grows into the character, The Doctor is his to weird, interprete and transform. As long as he doesn't over do it and remember "The Doctor is a brilliant yet slightly arrogant sod" I think he'll do just fine. His youth means he has options of longetivity whilst avoiding being type-cast (something I fear even DT will struggle to shake off for sometime).
I must admit I know nothing of MS but I do wish him well (just wish he'd put down that damn gun!).
I still miss Christopher Ecclescakes. *sulk*
