caddyman: (TARDIS)
I rather enjoyed the the tenth Doctor's first outing, I must say. Not a classic story, but about right for the post Turkey Christmas evening slot. Unlike [livejournal.com profile] rumfuddle, I wasn't annoyed by David Tennant, and didn't see anything wrong with his performance.

I'm not sure about Russel T Davies' agenda, though spotting the pot-shots is always fun. The reference to the President of the US not being the PM's boss was a laugh, and the references to Thatcher - the sinking of the Belgrano and the fall of her Government with "I can bring your government down with just six words..." (see title to this post) were interesting.

Nice to see Sarah-Jane Smith and K9 in the 'coming soon' bit during the closing titles, and the cybermen.

Have they remixed the title music again? I'm not sure.

Thanks, by the way to those who read and enjoyed the Christmas ghost story. It's surprisingly hard to get to the point in five hundred words or less. You won't believe the amount of editing involved to get it down to that, but I think it was the better for it.

Anyway, must go - proper update at some point, but it's 1.10am and this is a borrowed computer.

Ciao4now. More words when I get home.
