Good to see them rule out his Torchwood mates.... would have been less exciting if Jacks mates came to help. I quite like this Master in a way, though for some reason the way he talks and acts reminds me of simon pegg.
what work do you do?
Still isn't worth the TV Tax though...
Doctor stuck in secret base (Torchwood last, UNIT this), aliens first thought to be friendly then turn out not to be (and they arrive from the sky) and companion's family in peril...
Next series will probably consist of the Master teaming up with the Last Dalek to build an army of cybermen soldiers to conquer Earth... again.
Why is it always Earth... i mean, why not... ANY other planet, the old Doctors always went to populated alien worlds... even if they all did look like gravel pit
I'm sick of the Daleks, and I'm sick of the Cybermen. Time for a new baddie!
Marketing
I still don't think Simms was a good Master, but he wasn't bad once as a baddie once I stopped thinking of him as the Master.
John Simm was more 'baddie-like' in this episode. I was happier with him. But I still think of him as a 70s cop And I loved the CGI, particularly the very old doctor. Really enjoyed it
Over all good, shame his assistant had to go, i liked Martha so much more then Rose.
Now he is on the Titanic eh... wasnt Chris Ecclestone on the Titanic as the Doctor at some point in an old photograph in season 1?
:yes:
I thought it was a bit naff really. Like Kermit said, Blink was the best episode this year.
I agree completely. Blink had me hiding behind a cushion on the edge of my seat
She's not left the series, she'll be back. She's left her phone. Don't know if she'll be in the Christmas episode but she's going to be back for the new series.
And yes, Martha is so much better than Rose. Martha actually has a personality. Rose was a bit wet.
I thought the endong was okay but it could have been better. Was a bit of a let down episode after some of the amazing ones this series.
The twist they hinted at with Jack was quite interesting (Hes the face of Bo)
Yeah, I love that! It was quite neat how it all happened. And that's why he knew the Doctor was not alone early on.
I loved the face of bo. He won't be back though, will he
I doubt it, it was in the script that the doctor only meets him in that form three times.
She's only leaving for a few episodes. Have to say I thought she's grown on me - at first she seemed a slightly brainer, but otherwise sub-standard Rose.
That said if they're adding a new companion its a chance to think outside the box and not go for a modern, twenty-something women.
The Doctor travels in time and space, surely there's a bit more variety in who he could pick.
If you liked Jack try Torchwood, which was set between season 2 and 3 - basically Doctor Who with Jack instead of the Doctor and lots of shagging, swearing and Welsh people.
As to the episode - loved it, especially how lighthearted the Bo revelation was and the great musical number at the start.
that said even if they did leave I'd be suprised if the BBC just didn't replace them. The series ran originally from 1963 -1990 it went through a fair few producers and script editors in that time.
Catherine Tate is going to be the "new" companion for series 4. :crazyeyes
No. :crying: I really cant stand her. One of the reasons I didnt like the Xmas special much was because of her awful acting. Why cant the introduce a new charcter or nick someone from Torchwood?
Looking forward to seeing Martha in Torchwood, though.
The musical number was fantastic! Best part of the show
