Warm feelings, Undappy feelings

Firstly, many thanks to cutietrolcutietrol and Bert (sans LJ) for the following piece of poetic justice in action:



Unhappy thoughts though ... RTD promised that this week's episode of Doctor Who was going to be the one where we completely revised our opinions of Donna as a companion.

No, RTD, no ... she is still annoying and I'd rather see Rose, Martha, Jack, Sarah-Jane or any character from any of the spin-offs as companion rather than the car-crash that is Catherine Tate's portrayal of Donna. Enough already, kill her off ... properly!

I agree 100%
RTDs messiah complex was at work long before he got involved in Dr.Who, and its a shame to see it to distort the series time after time. A clear case of a writer with issues bringing them into an existing world and messing it up.

Well yes, but at least in 'Son of Man' he had an excuse ;-)

Seriously though, he does need to take a few dried frog pills to stop turning some of his scripts into parodies of themselves in places. All power to him for bringing the series back but if he can't lay off the chedder, it really is time to take a back seat.
