TV New Dr Who

[Edmond]

Dont forget that Dr Who starts again tonight on BBC1 at 6.20, with the new doctor

Have heard and seen some interviews with him over the last few weeks and he (Matt Smaith) seems a likeable kinda guy

We shall see.....

 

[Overdriven]

I'll be signing into this one today, might as well see if it's worth watching,or avoiding. He's got a lot of bad press from people, but he could be good

 

[Talyn]

He seemed a little posh on Johnny Woss the other week.. not sure what to make of him yet...

 

[Shagrat]

ding dong. thats my kind of WPC

 

[00dave]

hmmm.......

 

[Edmond]

Why do they keep changing the bloody theme tune,,,,,,,


.....but, yeah he'll do

Thought it was good, slow though, it needs to pick up the pace a little

 

[Shagrat]

badpoints: title music is hideous

goodpoints: rest was a lot better than I expected tbh, quite enjoyed it and my little 9 year old lad didnt say a word for a whole hour, which is a big thumbs up from him.

 

[throdgrain]

The assistant is awesome

 

[Edmond]

oh yeah forgot to mention that, she's very hot

 

[old.user4556]

The assistant is awesome

She is. That is the only thing worth watching it for imo.

 

[00dave]

still not convinced by the new doctor but the assistant gets 2 thumbs up (and maybe a couple of fingers ) and the new series looks quite good too.

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Rather enjoyed this. Hokum-tastic.

The new theme is indeed rather dreadful though the new titles themselves are neat.

I thought the new chap was rather good as the doc.

 

[Ch3tan]

It wasn't bad, it was not great, but it was a good introduction episode. Think this doctor and especially his assistant will work out fine.

 

[rynnor]

Not great - compare and contrast that episode to 'Rose' first episode after the restart which also introduced a new doctor + companion and you'll see the gulf between them.

By comparison this episode was slow paced and kinda lacking in plot and twists - hopefully it will get a lot better.

 

[Lamp]

The assistant is awesome

you lot would think worzel gummidge in a dress is hot

 

[Sparx]

i think he needs a couple more episodes to find his feet

Moffat is determined to be out with the old and in with the new, new theme tune, Tardis even a new sonic screwdriver

Was good to see some familiar things up and coming at the end

Spoiler

River Song is back looking forward to that, silence in the library and forest of the dead are up there as my fave episodes. The angels back too and some others

Not a fan of the new outfit

 

[Shagrat]

i did like the steampunky new interior.

 

[cHodAX]

Not sure I can face watching it, really don't like the posh lad they have given the role to. Seems to me they picked the cheapest option so that the budget cuts would be less telling on-screen, cheap young actor who costs 1/4 of what David Tennant was on means alot less pressure on the producers to stretch the budget. For that reason don't expect to see any old faces from the previous 4 seasons until the economy picks up, this is Doctor Who for the recession era.

Nuff said TBFH!

I think they've already openly stated there will be no previous characters returning for this series.

You do realise Papa Cho talking about budget in Dr. Who is somewhat ironic, given that for several decades it was one of the cheapest-looking sci fi shows in the world

 

[Turamber]

Excellent. The new music will take some getting used to but that was so much better than I had anticipated!

did you watch the trailer at the end? there were old faces

 

[Yaka]

thought it was preety good and the new doc is gonna work out fine. as for the old faces think only cpt jack would be needed the rest were getting boring.

cant remeber where i read but they are working on yank dr who, sadly

 

[Krazeh]

did you watch the trailer at the end? there were old faces

Not only were there old faces but there several guest stars who i'm guessing wouldn't have been nearly as cheap to hire as some random actor who could've done the role just as easily. But of course they're trying to be as cheap as possible...

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

The trailer had what looked like Spitfires dogfighting in space.

Truely, I won't miss that for the world. Proper eccentric

 

[chipper]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I MISSED IT >.<

[Yaka]

[rynnor]

The new Tardis console

It looks like a womens clothing boutique - the rails with clothes are no doubt just out of shot
