I like him too but people are not ready for the Doctor eating a patty and smoking a fat one.

The Mary Jane Adventures?

What is it with you and Patterson Joseph? Are you Patterson Joseph?

I like him too but people are not ready for the Doctor eating a patty and smoking a fat one. Or calling Davros a 'rasclart'.

I just think he would make an interesting Doctor, I'm bit sick of the eccentric Victorian gentleman thing. Nothing wrong with a Doctor that likes a little recreational medication.

Keith Richards for next Doctor.

Keith Richards for next Doctor.

With Mick Jagger as the master and Anita Ekberg as his assistant ;)

It was good. The Mrs said she really enjoyed it until the Doctor turned up and said Boo! I really do think he needs directing.. he's out of control. Preferred last weeks ep and I think I am with Lazzard about too many bits that aren't resolved properly, linking the monsters love life with the chase etc. The ending where he did the talking bit was like all the others but at least the talk didnt save him this time.

Well I think it was as good as it could be within the restrictions, I thought Matt Smith was more subdued than usual.

But he could be even more subdued.

Nah, I like crazy young Smith. I think he's getting it dead on.

He started off alright but he's in danger of turning into willy wonka :)

Isn't it written so he gives that sort of ADHD performance? That's why I smile when people start discussing who the next Doctor should be, because whoever they choose they'll still be racing around like a Ritalin-juiced toddler.

Not sure it was written in as such except when he joined. Originally he was speaking wibbly wobbly because he just regenerated so it was in context. it was ok.. then it just went on and nobody is checking it back. It's out of control I tell you. Out of control! :)

Moffat ain't got time, he's got Sherlock to do on top of this!

I suppose a performance like that can be grating to some, but personally I do like it a lot. And it doesn't feel put on, it's effortless. I imagine they'll look to go the other way a bit more with whoever is next.

A real worry. Along with Jenna Coleman's nose collapsing.

I had hoped the inside of the Tardis would be a bit more interesting than this. I like Clara's dress, though. Very jouncy.

Next week's episode looks like Carry On Screaming. Will Dr Who finally meet Dr Watt?

Co-starring Oddbod and Abbot & Costello.
