They were great, the two part Dalek/Cybemen finale was a cracker. Shame to say goodbye to Rose, but the longer storyline was a great success in my opinion.

They certainly managed to keep the return of the daleks quiet :D Missed the first part, but the second was excellent.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Only caught the second episode repeated two nights ago on BBC3. I did think that if the Doctor could reach Rose using the power of a supernova once, it could happen again.

Additionally the episode with the clockwork aliens and the French woman, minus kudos points for a time Lord that forgets the difference of shifts in the two event lines.

Still the series does look as though its got back on its feet.

I beg to differ. It's complete trash.

May be spinney, but at least it's entertaining trash.

Also who is taking over from Rose ?

I would guess the girl in the wedding dress, but we'll have to wait until autumn to find out. :)

Loved it. Only one duff episode this series, and that was the one I missed :confused (apparently)!

I knew about the Cybermen/Dalek/Rose 'death' ending soon after the series started?!

My brother told me, so it must have been in the Sun :-doh!

I am sorry to go against the grain here, but I never got into the new Dr Who series. I was brought up on Tom Baker, and this new series paid no reflection on to the Dr Who I recall.

No cliffhangers really. I loved the four and six part stories. And no sexual undertones. When that comedian Peter Kaye came in it, wasn't there some reference to w***ing or something - something sexual.

And I didn't like the Dr's implied sexual attraction toward his assistant, and vice versa. The old Dr wasn't like that: he was avuncular, not vulgar.

Maybe I am old fashioned, but a Dr is a doctor. Does your local GP flirt with you and kiss ya?!:D If mine was an attractive woman, I wouldn't complain, but my GP is a bloke, 54, bald and fat! :-rofl2

Anyway, that's wot I fink. ;)
