Agreed 100 percent. Despite some good acting turns, I was annoyed with the episode all the way through. A big 'what the..?' moment was Tennant's Doctor showing up in the flashback, where we know Eccles' Doctor was already around at the time. Another 'what the...?' moment was, in seemingly this episode only, the TARDIS goes where and when it's supposed to. This was billed as experimental, and I've got to grant them that, but... let's hope they refrain in future.

Posted by Gewanter at June 24, 2006 9:00 PMDoctor Who is nothing compared to what it was FACT! Russell T Davies is a overrated writer who just isn't that good. FACT! All the best stories of this and the previous season were not wrote by him. FACT! Love and Monsters is awful with very little redeming features. FACT! Please what would really save Doctor Who is replacing Russells role with Mark Gatiss then who would be great again! FACT ! Doctor Who was a thought proking series which has decended into fart jokes FACT! Its dying thanks to Russell T Davies whos managed to dio what The Master never could ..... Kill Doctor Who FACT !
Posted by Grant at June 27, 2006 10:57 AMI agree totally. I am so sick of hearing about how great a writer RTD is when he proves time and again (at least in Doctor Who and Torchwood) how wretched he is. Good for him for bringing the show back, but now he should keep his hands off it. He's turned it into mindless dreck for the masses - where the old show prized intelligence, this new debacle prizes agonising sentiment and pop culture. It isn't really Doctor Who anymore - it "The Russell T. Davies Show." Someone save us from this crap!
Posted by Adam at December 31, 2006 1:17 AMDavies has almost wrecked this series. No, he has, he has in fact wrecked it. The only good stories were the ones by Stephen Moffat and the first Dalek one - that should have been the last Dalek one ever - by Robert Shearman.
The rest of this series has just been a complete waste of time. Same with TorchWood - about 4 good stories and the rest focuses on such fascinating topics as the characters sexuality, yawwwwwwwwwwwn.
Sack this idiot and get Moffat to write every episode from now on (give Shearman another go too).
