Wot - no Doctor Who thread?

[madzone]

I thought it was fab and his new assistant knocks spots off Billie Piper

 

[moomoo]

Great wasn't it!

Fab start to a new series

 

[Strumpet]

Missed most of it.

 

[wishface]

Pretty good; did what it says on the tin. Looking forward to seeing the series hit it stride and am curious as to the subplot with this 'Saxon' character. An MP of some sort given the poster in the background that said 'vote saxon'.

Perhaps he's the MASTER!

 

[DotCommunist]

oooh is the master coming back this series?

last I saw of him he got a drubbing in that chrimbo special waaaay back

 

[gnoriac]

Perhaps he's the MASTER!

Now there's someone who should be revisited / revamped. The guy who played him, Roger Delgado(?), has unfortunately kicked the bucket, but hey they've improved on just about everything else.

Great programme tonight, though, superb new assistant, their snog and the insistence that she's not there as a replacement for Rose no doubt heralding much "is he boffing her on the quiet?" speculation. Special FX seemed much better than previous series, too.

 

[zoooo]

Loved it. And she was ace.
And his hair was ace. It's almost a separate character now.

Sylvestor Mcoy's old companion back is she?

 

[Strumpet]

David Tennant is kinda cute...

I quite liked her arse.

Speaking of The Master, watch an old movie called Jack The Giant Killer. The villain is the spitting image of Anthony Ainley's look and performance.

 

[agricola]

She is certainly a fox.

Wasnt there also mention of this Saxon person during the radio interview she was listening to just before she went out to the party?

I suspect John Simm is The Master. Fucking cool.

I didn't notice, my age must be catching up with me!

 

[Stigmata]

She were lovely. I've got a bit of a thing about medical students.

Does it stop abruptly when they become doctors?

As for the Saxon thing, presumably it's going to be this series's ongoing theme (like Bad Wolf and Torchwood).

 

[aqua]

did anyone else LOL at the "what are they, zovirax men?" (or something like that!)

was good, and I don't like Dr Who

 

[brixtonvilla]

I said God-damn...

Might have to start watching

Yes! That line was funny.

Did anyone else fancy the evil motorcycle couriers? They were hot. Although not as hot as the doctor.
He absolutely kills me.

actually i thought they looked a bit silly really.

 

[_angel_]

I don't think the new girl has the same charisma as Billie Piper.

 

[ViolentPanda]

She hasn't.

She's got more and better charisma than Billie Piper.

 

[Boogie Boy]

What VP said.

And then sum.

[FiFi]

I'm sorry, is there a new companion?

I was too busy drooling over David Tenant to notice!

 

[wishface]

i think Martha is a better character (so far as is possible to ascertain; being related to reggie yates is a minus), but i think Billie 'because she wants to' Piper is a better actress.

Yeah plus there was a "vote saxon" poster behind her just after that. The poster was also in torchwood on that dance hall thing and adverts for the new series. Mr saxon was also on a newspaper in the Peter Kaye episode I think and gave the order for the tanks to fire in the runaway bride. Seems like he is leader of the opposition. Which maybe thinks the bit in a tochwood episode where Jack says something about torchwood operations turning up in speechs by the opposition might be a subtle reference. I need a life.

 

[newharper]

Loved it, and she was far better than Billie Piper.

 

[Belushi]

Excellent first episode, and like all the other fellas I loveMartha Jones

 

[Allan]

Smith and Jones, innit.

 

[liampreston]

Loved it - thought it was a good, simple story to introduce Martha. Had to chuckle at David's miming "It's bigger on the inside" as it's something EVERYONE has said over the years (I think, did Susan or Zoe say something like that?) but yeah, thumbs up from me.
