It's like Davies stuffed the story full of decent moral issues, and then completely refused to address any of them.Chronotishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00039037385333722352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1768269625740412102.post-50666240462090799582018-09-08T18:29:05.628+01:002018-09-08T18:29:05.628+01:00Yes, but then we wouldn't have gotten Matt Smi...Yes, but then we wouldn't have gotten Matt Smith in probably his finest season. Tennant was a good Doctor during a poor era. Matt was an excellent Doctor during a show renaissance. I would hate to see Big Bang without Matt.Elliotnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1768269625740412102.post-19563542352089199042018-09-08T18:25:25.609+01:002018-09-08T18:25:25.609+01:00Tennant didn't get the best stories.

The Slitheen aren't my favourite monster, and non-stop farting doesn't do much for me, so to see them return so soon wasn't my idea of a good time. But as a lead-in to Bad Wolf, it works well. The Doctor is at his most humorous, the atmosphere at its most relaxed, and although the moral conundrum is incredibly lightweight, it's nowhere near as bad as I remember. The Eccleston era just keep on getting better on repeated viewing whereas the Tennant era seems to get worse. Elliotnoreply@blogger.com
