Informative as ever, Time Warden!!

Less than 2 weeks to go!!

My wife is impressed with all this information about Dr Who that I'm mysteriously coming out with... thanks Timewarden: you're the man with his finger on the pulse of time...!

Old Cheeser said...

You are indeed. I think I will stop writing Dr Who posts on my own blog and just provide links to yours - sooo much easier.

(!!!)

TimeWarden said...

It’s always handy to have a rough idea of what to expect just before a new season gets underway. Looking forward to reading what you both think about it, once it does. Let’s hope it’s a good series with a few surprises up its sleeve! T minus ten days and counting!!

Old Cheeser said...

Yes, I'll be writing a review of every episode I hope! Hardly surprising for me! I gave up with "Torchwood" and didn't write any reviews of the last few episodes, but that's cos the series as a whole just didn't grip me in the same way as "Dr Who" and I got progressively more disappointed with it. Sure "Torchwood" had its redeeming features but it was very up and down in quality and overall I wouldn't put it in the same league as "Who"!

I hope you enjoy the new series Timewarden, as going by your previous comments, you've been disappointed with series one and two. Or rather it just doesn't live up to the original in your eyes - I'm right aren't I?

You’re right on all counts, Simon. “Torchwood” was very up and down. I love “Greeks Bearing Gifts”, “Out of Time”, “Captain Jack Harkness” and “End of Days”. I even like “Random Shoes”, where most people don’t. But, I absolutely loathed “Countrycide”, apart from the Brecon Beacons, especially detested the mindlessness of “They Keep Killing Susie” and totally abhorred the pointlessly over-violent episode “Combat”.

I hope you enjoy the new series of “Doctor Who”, too. In fact, I hope everyone who watches it will want to return to the series next year because, at its core, is the best-ever concept for a television series and the reason why I still support it, and always will, however mistreated it becomes. I’m more critical about “Doctor Who” than any other series because I care more about it than any other.

From its two predecessors, I would like the third series to develop more out of stories such as “The Unquiet Dead”, “Dalek” and the two mid-series two-parters that began with “The Empty Child” and “The Impossible Planet” rather than perpetuate episodes like “Love & Monsters” and “The Runaway Bride”. But, if I had my way, more of “Doctor Who” would be more like “The Caves of Androzani”!
