I managed to see the New Doctor Who a few weeks ago - and was very disappointed in everything about the show  New TARDIS set is really stupid looking - New Doctor is not right at all - bad script - worse acting - and fighting plastic dummies and dustbins - stupid  Music was pretty naff too - all around - not something that made me want to see episode 2  Once you've seen Piper's boyfriend replaced by Max Headroom - without anyone noticing the difference - you'll think it's for under 5's  Then again - I might be being over picky - but I really thought it was THE worst episode the BCC have ever churned out  Is it just me? |

It starts in a couple of hours - so once you've seen it - let me know what you think  And by the way - I did like ONE thing about it - the new logo  www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/ |

Just thought I'd add - I still can't believe there was no regeneration scene - even thought Paul McGann wanted to do one |

Have to say that I loved the first episode. To me it marked the rebirth of Doctor Who for the 21st Century.
The Autons have always been in my top 10 Who foes, ever since Spearhead in Space and Terror of the Autons.
I loved the chemistry of the Doctor / Rose companionship.
With regards to the regeneration scene and the lack of one. I think that it was a good idea to allow new viewers (especially young children) to start without too much continuity. When a regeneration occurs you must feel that it is your Doctor who is changing and it becomes something personal to the viewer.
Also it is being done by people who love the show and understand how the series must be in the 21st century.

Hey Shaun! ;D Glad you enjoyed the show - I just wished he'd actually had a costume What did you think of the theme tune? By tradition - they never used drums in the opening music - but they also did that in the Paul McGann version - anyway - I'll have to set a few of my versions of the music for download - and see what people think  Back to tonight episode - I did like the idea of the guy with the website - but the photos he had should have also shown previous Doctors ;D |

I reckon Chris will be the Doctor for about 5 years - so let's vote BHK as the tenth Doctor ;D
