New Who: a mildly qualified HURRAH!
Sunday, April 4th, 2010 11:28 pmI enjoyed it. I REALLY enjoyed it. Sure, the ( SPOILER! ) was a bit crap, and the ( SPOILER! ) was an unnecessary hangover from the Rusty-era, but mostly? It was great. It's the first time since Ecclescake regenerated that I've actually felt like I was watching Doctor Who, and not something Bill Baggs would have rejected.
Eleven is ( SPOILER! )! Properly, Doctorishly ( SPOILER! )! And he ( SPOILER! )! And he ( SPOILER! ), instead of being ( SPOILER! )! And he explains himself without being patronising, even to children (I really loved the ( SPOILER! ) bit). And his ( SPOILER! )! And... oh, I'm going to have to watch it again.
And it had everyone's-favourite-GILF Annette Crosbie in it! And Nina Wadia! And the series trailer at the end had Meera Syal!
In short: SQUEEEE!
And yes, like everyone else on the planet, I am crushing on Amy.
But the main source of amusement for me is this: I have seen far more Lib Dem excitement about the new episode of Doctor Who than I have about the forthcoming elections. Because, at the end of the day, we know what's important in this party ;)
