New Doctor Who

Spoilers beneath the cut.


What can I say? I loved this episode. Was it perfect? No. But it was fabulously entertaining and there was so much to like about it. So that's what I'm going to concentrate on. David Tennant is just wonderful as the Doctor. I have so many favourite scenes from this ep...Wet!Doctor and Cassandra!Doctor to name but two. The Cassandra scene at the end made me tear up, which was totally unexpected. How do they do that? Last year with the Dalek and now with Cassandra.

So much Doctor/Rose shippiness going on...even though the kiss turned out not to be Rose at all (which I already knew). I like the fact that it is all so understated. I like the idea of the Doctor/Rose, but I'm quite happy with the way it's being portrayed.

I miss Captain Jack, but at least we'll get to see him in Torchwood in the Autumn. I also miss CE (strange as that may sound after all the DT squee), but I think DT has slipped into the role so effortlessly that I probably won't miss him for long. Of course TCI has made the transition that much easier.

Episode two looks like it's going to be great! This is the episode with DT's girlfriend in, I believe. He met her while making this episode and she seems like a lovely girl from the interviews I've seen. Aww! :)

I haven't seen the Confidential yet. I've recorded it on Sky+ and am going to watch it later. Really looking forward to next week.

I saw DT being interviewed by John Barrowman on "This Morning" on Wednesday. They are such fanboys, it really was a sight to behold! JB could hardly contain his excitement. :D

Squeeeeeeeeeage

I'm watching it right now and I'm loving it! Wow! He's hot - and I didn't expect that. And those glasses....mmmm. I'm with you on the Rose/Dr shippiness, but I'll take what I can get. I love it, love it, love it! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Something to look forward to every week. Yummy. GAh! I just saw the kiss..........I WANT HIM!! *giggles*

Ok, I'm going to have to hit rewind after this finishes. Isn't Sky+ the best thing ever? *grins*

Oh, hi Cal! Hope you're alright. *hugs*

I saw the previews on SciFi for weeks and still managed to miss the dang premier. But DT did look lovely on the previews.

*bounces* it was great - I agree about the Wet!Doctor and when Cassandra!Rose first took over, I giggled something rotten *g*

There were definitely some Looks between Docter and Rose, so I think much shippiness can be expected *rubs hands in glee*

And I missed DT and JB interview! Sounds like it was a sight to behold ;)

Dr Who

I really enjoyed it - DT is just to die for (I've got two doctors on the go now, Dr Mac and Dr Who), and I thought BP did really well with the Cassandra!Rose thing. Watched the Confidential straight afterwards too.

It was nice that we all watched it together as well - since I dragged them along to the Dr Who exhibition in Cardiff when we were there, the girls have been really into it all.
