Christmas Dr Who
That was shed loads of fun :) Anyone get the feeling they're cranking up the edginess factor and the snappy dialogue for this next series?
There were at least two pieces of dialogue that made me hoot with laughter - damn my goldfish memory, because I can't recall 'em now! I will rely on the rest of my flist to quote it at length over the next few days and jog my memory :) I did love the running gag with "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister" "Yes, we know who you are". *snickers*
I still don't like Rose. Sorry, Rose fans, but she just annoys me. She was so pathetic at the beginning, she even annoyed Mickey. Course, as soon as everything went the way she wanted it to, everything was fine. Geh. Tennant is, however, completely brilliant, I think I already like him more than Ecclestone. But then in this role, the Dr's got more of a nasty streak and that always appeals.
Didn't think a huge amount of the bad guys but then they were really just there to provide the threat and set up the Great Moral Question at the end, rather than have any depth or, you know, meaning.
Mickey - The Man Who Doesn't Learn, bless his cotton socks. I like him though :)
Special effects - aww, c'mon, that spaceship sucked! But the blue light thing was quite cool. And the regrowing hand. Though the too big sleeve to hide perfectly ok hand was a bit tacky. And seriously, why the hell didn't the Incredible Bouncing Tardis not demolish everything it hit during that landing? However, I liked that bit, so I'll let 'em off ;)
Overall Mitchy Rating = 7/10 (for ep) 10/10 (for the new doctor)

And Penelope Wilton is fab. I thought I glimpsed her in the end of show season preview clips, so hopefully that character comes back. "Harriet Jones, Prime Minister." "We know who you are" *snickers*
Now I'm all agog to see this spin off show with Captain Jack Harkness *glee* Wonder if we'll get a glimpse of that via this new series of Dr Who?
