Yet another historical figure vs robots/aliens/monsters episode, but a solid view with no major gripes. Definatly liking Tennant more then Ecclestone now were seeing enougth to get a decent gauge and i'll be able to tolerate Mickey if his annoyance value is more like this episode then any of his previous appearences.
Cybermen next week, let the arse kicking commence.  |

And yes next week freaking cybermen! Ever if they are being lead by trigger from only fools and horses. Your signature image may not exceed 40 Mega Fonzies in Coolness. -staff | |

Still, Next week, CYBERMEN!

Also, Cybermen are a two-parter.

Seemed to speed up when it was needed for the story.
Mind you that's not the only time inconsitancy with the show just now. There is Mickey.

After last week and the idea that the Doctor could never love someone because he will outlive them, we literally see it happen. Really emotional.
I also liked the line "He's the King of France!" "Yes, but I'm the Lord of Time."
David Tennant is definately settling into the role and bringing a lot of emotion and humour to it. Next week looks good, does anyone else think that maybe, just maybe, this is Mondas? Quote: |

From what I know and from the preview clip, it looks like a alt reality as London was shown.

Join Date: Aug 2005 Posts: 1,427 Location: Enon, Ohio Collection Count: Too many and not enough. | I was dissaponted that the guy that wrote such an awesome episode as The Empty Child last year could only offer this this year. Nothing against Steven, I met him in LA last February and he's a cool guy and all...
It had it's good points, but it just wasn't for me. So far the only story out of season 2 I've even really liked has been last weeks. I like Tennant lots more than I liked Eccleston, but I'm not liking this season as much as I liked the last season, last season was dark and serious (in places) and this season seems a little more easy going and more for the kids.
