Quote: Nil Putters @ June 21 2010, 8:32 PM BSTA what point in the Angels story was this second Doctor? I must've missed this.
Me too, but I'm not very observant sometimes.
Doctor Who... Page 573
17mins 30secs into Flesh & Stone. Hmm, maybe a 'second' Doctor.
Still won't be happy though. 
It's always possible that we won't be given all the answers next week, and instead deliberately be left with intriguing paradoxes.

The Angel grabs hold of the Doctor's coat, so he's just in a shirt. In the forest he then leaves Amy, with her eyes closed, to go off with River and the soldier bloke; but then immediately comes straight back, Amy still with her eyes shut, and his whole tone changed, and now he's suddenly wearing a jacket again, telling Amy she must remember what he told her as a child and acting very sad, then he's off again.
The jacket could be a continuity error, but that seems unlikely.
I've more or less given up on new Who. I like Matt Smith, but the stories don't interest me.

I'm surprised, I don't think for a second that the stories in the classic series were really any better. Perhaps it's more the style and the truncated nature of the telling, what with now not having four or six episodes to tell a story in, that doesn't appeal? Having to tell a complete story in forty five minutes makes for obviously quite a different feel to four epsiodes or more.

Yeah, I can't be doing with everything done and dusted in 45 minutes. I don't have ADHD.
Saying that, I f**king love Lovejoy and that's always done and dusted in 45 minutes...

Last week I picked up a DVD of an ITV 7-part sci-fi series from 1977 called Children of the Stone. Anyone seen it/remember it and able to recommend it? I've not watched it yet.

Yeah, that's good, I think. Saw it a few years ago. Proper good 70s cult TV.

He generally cannot do this because of the Blinovitch Limitation Effect.

It's good stuff. More adult than a lot of adult shows.

Hey, that's at least three us who rate Matt the next best since Tom!
