| ![]() | Customer Reviews:![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() FABULOUS (30 December 2008)although i write this, i must say that the doctor was far more mellow than in DT's first season. although,sometimes, the snarling and shouting does come to the front every now and then, its not as in your face. i could list the episodes one by one, but i think they each have their on merrits and each, like evryhting ever made for tv has faults as well, but my reasoning behind this review is more to do with the overall season. it started off well.. very well, and freema appeared to be more mature that drooling rose, and its obvious that martha has an instant attraction to the doctor, the show appears to have gone more adult, more mature and worked at a good enjoyable pace. the annual non-doctor story was so great, i didn't miss the regulars as those angels freaked me out no end.. GREAT STUFF..CRACKING.. UTOPIA done it for me, and although i knew YANA was going to be who he turned out to be, the change, the build up and the drama of the script and acting was second to none. I did think however, the last two episodes were the best, and it goes to show how fit martha is, walking the entire planet in a year.. Paula Radcliffe, eat ur heart out!!! ;-) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Good, but not great.

There are a few guest stars (John Simm, Derek Jacobi) and the scripts are good but the real let down is the anit-climatic finale. Built up so well, RTD failed to make it live up to expectations and left most Doctor Who fans disapointed and wanting more. Overall, good, but in the standards of Doctor Who, not the best. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Better than the Old black and White series. (26 September 2008)I dont care what the old folks say, this is modern and great for todays viewing. 10 out of 10. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() very good series of Doctor who (01 July 2008)i have found series three of Doctor who to be very refreshing...although there are a few duds this year it doesn't harm the show but makes the better episodes shine. Martha Jones exceeded my expectations,as i thought that she was going to be another Rose Tyler she turned out to be a great companion and very three dimensional although lacking Roses charismatic persona she brings something new to the table,and her character is explored with depth. eppy reviews- the runaway bride-4/5-a very good christmas special...Catherine Tate was a breath of fresh air and was extremely entertaining tpo watch(glad she was the main companion in series 4)the Racnoss is a great creation and reminds me of the alien queen from the Alien franchise. Smith & Jones-3/5-a decent starter to the series and introduces us to the fab companion Martha Jones:) The Shakespeare Code-3/5-a decent episode while not as good as the previous it still has a few effective scenes and the Carronites are creepy. Gridlock-3/5-an average episode about an intargalactic traffic jam:)with a twist. Daleks in Manhattan-3/5-a nice start to a two parter but it does drag on some scenes...the Daleks aren't as terrifying as they used to be but its great to see them...and that hybrid. Evolution of the Daleks-4/5-a very good episode to say the least...very exciting and if you can get past the tacky American accents(the british can't master it...why not employ people from America)it is an enjoyable experience. the Lazarus experiment-4/5-another very good episode that is very effective and moves along the main plot. 42-1/5-my least favourite episode...very dull and very boring. Human Nature-5/5-an atmospheric opening to a great two parter...those scarecrows give me shudders...Martha shines again. family of blood-5/5-the concluding part...may confuse some viewers,but nevertheless is a very good and effective concluding part to the storyline,Tennant once again proves why he is the BEST doctor. Blink-4.5/5-Stephen Moffett writes a very effective story...one of the best episodes of series 3 without a doubt and one of my favourite episodes the weeping angels are very basic and terrifying,but it isn't Stephen at his best(overshadowed by the superior library two parter in series 4,and a footnote to Girl in the Fireplace),but what makes this rise above is the fact that it keeps making you think,and it hits you with a scare over and over,making it a tame slasher flick(of sorts),the supporting cast are fabulous,and although Tennant and Agyman are only in a few scenes they still manage to move the plot along which is why it stands out,and can easily understand why people say it is their favourite episode but i feel that there are a few superior episodes to this,but make no mistake...its extremely good. Utopia*-5/5-another one of this series' greats and in my top ten list(#8) that sees the return of the fabulous capt.Jack Harkness:P:P there is some action...and an amazing script written by Russel T.Davies,we see the return of one of the doctors ultimate foes!!. Derek Jacobi is very spine prickling when he turns around and then we just know he has transformed into the psycopathic Master...and god i love it!!! the cast manage to shine,and the gritty harshness of the episode makes it very effective and this series greatest episodes...and certainly one of the gretest ever!!! Sound of Drums-4.5/5-very good second part to the trilogy that moves the story along and is entertaining and contains plenty of action. Last of the Timelords-4.5/5-the series final,genuinely great episode although the defeat of the master seems quite rushed it was fab acting all round and that is all that matters...Russel T.Davies has provided a fabulous finale (only beaten by the electifying/astounding/amazing/fantastic Journey's End!!!)it wraps up the series and proves just how 'big' a plot can be...BRING BACK THE MASTER!!!. overall series 3 was a very good series form new Who and in a way is superior to the previous two series' of the show...Martha was fantastic on the show(and she makes a remarkable return in series 4 for 5 episodes). wanting to get this on dvd along with series 4(the best series to date!!!). so better than the previous two series' it has a lot to give here and there are a few great episodes in store...i recommend this series to everyone who loves sci-fi(also the astounding series 4). fantastic. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Tennant is THE Doctor (22 June 2008)For many years I`ve measured every successive Doctor against MY Doctor - Jon Pertwee - all after Tom Baker have paled in comparison until Christopher Eccleston and his "I`m The Doctor by the way ,now run for your life" in "Rose" the Series 1 opener.Throughout Series 2 I missed him but grew to appreciate the constant running ,even the whinyness of Chav-bird Rose became bearable (hated her btw) and of course the GREAT David Tennant who now owns the role thanks to this Great third series. Highlights for me have been the fact that we escaped Catherine Tate for a year (yay!!) ,met The Judoon ,became reaquainted with Captain Jack and his possible "future self" The Face of Boe ,more Cat-people (Brannigan rocked man!) ,learnt just how the "last Dalek" originated (check series 1) and learnt just who Saxon was ,we got The Master back briefly and more of The Time War plus UNIT !.I loved the cliffhanger ending with "The Titanic" . Low-lights - Catherine Tate as Donna (hated her shouting all the time - I kinda like Donna now a little in Series 4) , Martha (Freema Agyeman is just so wooden she`d have been better as a Tree in Series 1 LOL),the far too mannish and unconvincing Captain in "42" (Ripley did butch better in Aliens LOL),we lost The Face of Boe and still no Brigadier! We`re still awaiting definitive info on The Time War though and was it Paul McGann that fought it ?It looked possible in the first few Christopher Ecceleston scenes in "Rose". |
