New Doctor Who

Kids will never have heard of Agatha Christie, the only thing they would be interested in was the giant wasp, and there wasn't enough of that.

Best bit in the episode was the Doctor fighting off poisoning my arsnic.

Although he struggled to talk, he always managed it when it would be the most funny.
 
I actually thought it started quite well and could have been a decent comedy. I enjoyed the wacky flashback with the old man remembering looking at saucy pics of girls, then having a flashback within a flashback to watching saucy dancing girls. And the arsenic bit. But then the humour fizzled out in the second half and it just got silly. And the whole thing about Agatha losing her memory becaue the wasp vicar had abosrbed the memories of someone who had read her books (or whatever) made no sense, but I suppose there's no point complaining about that.
 
I just thought I'd seen it before.

Oooooh, an alien that's exactly the same as an Earth creature, but bigger?
Oooooh, they've gone back in time, and BY RANDOM met a famous person?
Oooooh, they've accidentally influenced said famous person's earlier works?
Oooooh, there's a gay person there for some reason?

For a show that has almost limitless possibilities in what they can do, they do the same fucking thing a hell of a lot.
 
I'm sure they did the "works remembered for millions of years" type line about both Dickens and Shakespeare. And did Agatha Christie really write a book about a giant wasp?
 
And if the tardis is huge inside, why does he keep a box of treasures under the floor in the console room?
 
And was it a box of CONTINUITY REFERENCES that Tomtrek didn't point out because the episode left him so apathetic?
 
I'm not a pathetic!!!!!!!
 
AT LEAST the Moffat two-parter is next week...OH WAIT, IT'S EUROVISION, BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE THEY HAVE A BBC2 OR ANYTHING THEY COULD SHOW THAT SHIT ON, NO SIREE BOB.
 
Not only that, but eurovision dosnt even come on till 8, by which time Doctor Who is usually finished anyway.
 
We can't go a week without a John Barrowman show!
 
I'm surprised he isnt copresenting eurovision
 
Steven Moffat to be Doctor Who Lead Writer and Executive Producer

BBC Wales and BBC Drama has announced that BAFTA and Hugo Award-winning writer Steven Moffat will succeed Russell T Davies as Lead Writer and Executive Producer of the fifth series of Doctor Who, which will broadcast on BBC One in 2010.

Moffat has penned some of the series' most unforgettable and acclaimed episodes, including Blink, with its terrifying weeping angels, for which he was awarded the BAFTA Writer Award 2008 on Sunday 11 May.

His previous work on Doctor Who includes The Girl In The Fireplace for series two, which earned him his second Hugo Award.

His first was for the series one two-parter The Empty Child, which became famous for its terrifying refrain "Are you my mummy?"

For the current series, Moffat has written Silence In The Library, a two-parter starring Alex Kingston which transmits on 31 May and 7 June 2008 on BBC One.

I just came.
 
I just had another thought, with RTD gone, the RTD hating Ecclestone might make a multi doctor return visit.
 
Of course the article doesn't mention Tennant coming back for season five. Which means it might be LENNY HENRY as the Doctor by the time Moffat takes over.
 
That has to be Davros
 
Those arent natural shadows, they are blacking parts of that scene out artificially, but not quite enough.

Why would a dalek have another blue light down there?
