It didn't really make any sense.
r - Why be a song when you can be a symphony?


[23:14] r: Don't diss Beck, he invented music!
[23:15] Dave: That's like saying the current pope invented Catholicism.

00:09]r: Heh, no-one's replied to your gay thread
[00:10] Dave: Your mom.
[00:11] r: Say what you want about her, she's a c**t
[00:11] Dave: I take a similar dim view of my own mother.
[00:11]r: Did yours leave your dad for a posh tw*t with a mullet and a handlebar moustache then take what was supposed to be your money for uni as part of the divorce settlement?
[00:12] Dave: Sadly not.
[00:13] r: You know what that means then?
[00:13] r: That means I win.

Primeval Blue - almost certainly not the best band in the world.

A classic bit is where the Doctor is getting all excited over what amazingly intelligent thing Shakespeare is going to say..then.... *giggles*

I thought it was an enjoyable enough episode - not the best, but not too bad! Let's see how the rest of the series pans out. :)

It wasn't the best in terms of Graphics and CGI, and perhaps not even in terms of plot, but you really got the sense that the doctor was in awe of Shakespeare and by the end the same applied in reverse.

It also made me cry when the dodgy woman said "Rose" and he said "That's where you're wrong - that name makes me want to keep fighting".

Sort of took personal heart from that.

Come off it, as good as they are for nostalgic sense they were rather lacking in plot. Well actually, no they did have a plot, they just used the same one over and over again. ;)

Well, in the next one the Doctor is to encounter the Face of Boe for the last time. So one assumes the episode will reveal the "great secret" promised to the Doctor by the Face of Boe in New Earth.

Well, as I'm sure you could tell from my post I was being humorous, but that's such a load of crap.

Yeah ok. I like the old doctor who but I must admit to liking the "new" ones more (ie the Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant ones).

Nothing to worry about, I'm just somewhat tired and cranky now, I agree the new series is great as well.

EDIT: And Tennant is really great in the role.

That's bollocks.

I don't understand what was bad about that episode.

I have to admit I prefer the more sci-fi ones to the ones set in the past, but I still think it was a good episode. :D

I like the new series.

The new assistant is pretty good actually. I like her.


One thing puzzled me about the last one... the queen.

The doctor says that he hasn't met her before, or doesn't know why she is after him...
In the last series, wasn't it that ware-wolf thing ad the creation of tourchwood? :?

Time travel is sooo confussing :D
