    The New Doctor (Doctor Who)


    Figured I'd check to see what the rest of you think about the new Doctor. Personally, I thought David Tennant was brilliant, but Matt Smith seems to have the role down pretty well. I'm excited to see the next episode /w Winston Churchill and more daleks.

    Oh, I just watched tonight's (2nd one) on iPlayer and I thought it was good.
    The first episode I thought was ok. The Doctor being zany after regenerating got a bit tiresome and him going back to this now (conveniently) kissogram girl he's been grooming for 12 years seemed a bit dubious and on the whole I thought Matt Smith tried to hard with the quirky.
    The convoluted plot in episode 2 has left me wanting to watch it again and I thought both Matt Smith and Karen Gillan played it really well. Matt smith seemed more relaxed but also more powerful and ageless and Karen Gillan appeared to really get into her roll, more feisty and confrontational and also wise in her decisions.
    She is obviously already thinking quite frivolously about her impending marriage to the tedious geek from the first episode which implies another doomed romance but, hey, time travel will do that to you

    PS. Of the new lot I think Christopher Ecclestone was the man. Very scarey
    Of the old ones Patrick Troughton and then Tom Baker

    totally agree about Ecclestone, loved his dark gritty doctor, im unfortunately too young to remember Classic Who and watching old TV shows brings out the worst in me,

    Karen Gillan... now her i could watch all day, unfortunately i found this episode of Dr who to be completely pointless with a weak storyline, by the time it actually got to an interesting bit, (winston churchill) i was beyong caring, i may give it another go tomorrow though, i didn't much like last week's until i watched it again

    My stupid Tivo hasn't been record the episodes. David Tennant was brilliant and I can't see him being replaced. I don't want to say anything negative, but I'll just leave it at David Tennant will always be the #1 [modern-day] Doctor in my mind.

    How many of this season's episodes have I missed (all)?

    I don't blame her. His acting is hard to match.

    +1 Christopher Eccleston(sp?)

    I very much like how the producers have managed to maintain the shows campy feel while significantly upgrading the production value.
