The Return of Doctor Who

As a twenty year American fan of Dr. Who and a huge fan of the new series, I was completely underwhelmed with the Christmas episode (though it did have a lot of funny moments) and the first episode of Season Three.

However, Freema Ageyma (sp?) - Martha Jones, is butt hot. Wasn't she in the second to last episode of Season Two? Ya know, the episode at Torchwood? I think she is one of the computer workers who is texting back and forth with a co-worker and lures him to a back room (that eventually houses Cybermen).

Anyway, she is money.

 

You are correct, sir. There was a line in last night's story where Martha said that was her cousin that never came back. Nice little in-joke for us!

Also, did you catch the references in both stories to a fellow named Saxon? If you don't know what's coming later this season, just know that this year's story arc revolves around Saxon references - like the first two story arcs were Bad Wolf and then Torchwood.

 

The main thing is, the sets don't wobble anymore.

 

i was reading that the doctor gets another assistant while martha actually ends up on the torchwood show for a few episodes.

his new companion will be catherine tate, she was the woman in the wedding dress in that one off special prior to this series. the loud mouthed women. should be good.

 

No discussion on the Daleks trying to evolve?

I can't wait for next week, so I got the entire 3rd season. Should be good.

 

High quality torrent of that on Mininova. Fun little bit though.

 

Big news for the upcoming season.

Woo hoo!!!

Can't wait for the Titanic Christmas Invasion! Not too far off.

Interesting that there will be 3 different Asst. this year. I saw that Martha will be off to Torchwood for a few.

They also mentioned that in 2009 there will be 3 specials and the next season won't start again until 2010 - that is after Season 4, which will start in March.

 

Russell T. Davies' successor has been announced. A very good choice IMHO.

Just caught "The Doctors Daughter" tonight on Sci-Fi channel.

Not too bad. Interesting episode that is open ended for a return for the Time Gal.

Other intersting notes:

Georgia Moffett plays Jen, the Doctors Daughter. She is the real life daughter of the 5th Doctor Peter Davison.

She is 23 yrs old and has a 6 yr old son and is about the most beautiful woman to ever play a part in the entire Doctor Who canon.

Now, here's the really creepy part. She's actually dating David Tennant.

 

Just watched "Silence in the Library" last night.

Wow. Can't wait for the second part next week.

For what it's worth, I'm totally thrilled that Steven Moffat (the writer of this two-parter and the writer of the single best episode (Blink) of Doctor Who throughout the entire series history, including the old one) will be replacing Russell T. Davies as series Executive Producer. Moffat is f'ing brilliant.

 

I have watched the whole of the current season, and "Silence In The Library", is by far the best story.
Cheers

I think that was Alex Kingston.
The former Mrs Ralph Fiennes.

 

Nope, an actress called Talulalh Riley.
Alex Kingston played Dr Song.
