The episode was quite manic and daft and a typical season opener but Catherine was very good in it and makes a bit of a change. Nice to see Benard Cribbins as well all those years after being in one of the early films.Papa Giddy wrote:

I hope she is killed in quite a horrible way in the first or second episode, that leaves absolutely no opportunity for a return.

It was one for the younger audience, I do believe. I agree on Catherine Tate. I can take small doses of her comedy show but I can't stand her as an actress. She's from the "Bianc-ah" school of acting where you're always half shouting your lines. Rubbish.Spinynorman wrote:The episode was quite manic and daft and a typical season opener but Catherine was very good in it and makes a bit of a change.

Ditto, although I would say Like rather than love, To be fair I haven't watched yesterday's episode yet, but didn't like her in the Special last year. This new incarnation has been superior in a lot of ways to the old Dr Who but inferior in the stupid way they keep trying to work some sort of romantic interest into the story lines . That is just not Dr Who. the first season with Bille Piper in was pretty annoying, and in fact stopped watching half way through. 2nd Or was it 3rd season was slightly improved & thought that sidekick better than Piper.Papa Giddy wrote:I love Dr Who, but I hate Cathrine Tate and won't watch the show with her as the new sidekick .

As I was away this weekend, I was forced into watching Dr Who while the maw got ready for dinner (only had 2 Sky channels on the TV ). It's the first time I've watched more than a 2 minute snippet of it, and I can honestly say what a lot of pish. Terrible acting and a crap storyline.
That said, I can appreciate it is good wholesome family viewing, so fair enough. Just don't ask the da to watch it again anytime soon.

Yep, gimme 8-10 years and I'll bump this thread, saying how good Dr Who is. I'll probably be posting on the malt whisky thread too by then, extolling the virtues of a vintage Laphroaig.kizkiz wrote:A couple of years yet before the wholesome family viewing becomes the ONLY telly you get to watchYer Old Da wrote:As I was away this weekend, I was forced into watching Dr Who while the maw got ready for dinner (only had 2 Sky channels on the TV ).

No doubt. Nah, to be fair I'll probably be out with junior Da in twenty years showing him how to pull.Spinynorman wrote:Sounds perfect to me. Would you perhaps be listening to a bit of prog by then as well.Yer Old Da wrote:

Yep, i agree Tate is rubbish and does detract from the programme. When she wanted to save the people of Pompei I just didn't find her credibleSurprised wrote:love Dr Who and it gets better and better.
That Tate woman tho does take away a lot of the enjoyment as she just can't act......kick her out of the tardis and get billie piper back.

Re: Dr Who
Certainly was. A huge cliffhanger! Looking back on this thread I'd like to say that I've found Catherine Tate's character rather funny.
