Wall of Mouths

Unsurprising, but I’m quite happy with that. The kid will do well, I’m sure. :)

This week’s verdict? Pointless fart-gags aside I liked it. Compared with the previous episodes (particularly the first two) it’s pretty impressive how much they’ve squeezed into 45 minutes, really. Not a whole lot for UNIT to do, though (at least not yet; there’s always next week).

The Unquiet Dead recieved a number of complaints,91 to be exact.Some people must have very little to do in life.

Unfortunatly, I didn’t see it last night, Was it as good as previous episodes?

I’ve heard that there was a ‘Bad Wolf’ reference in each of the episodes, but I’m not sure if that’s true or not. (Apparently one of the aliens in episode two uses the phrase, and the nestene consciousness says something that sounds like it in the first episode (But I’m not sure, because I thought it just sort of growled *shrug*))

Did you get to see it in the end, Ben?

For Bad Karma:

Quite amusing. :)

Chack out the publications section.

“UTE-18 – “But what has happened to Luton?” Coping with common press enquiries

(Please note UTE-13b replaces UTE-13: “Corporal Cooper’s Behaving Strangely”) “

Yeah, I saw it, thought it was very good. Great ending, I agree.

I loved the joke(s) about his accent. (from the second and third parts). :)
Glad you liked the UNIT site. :)

Yeah, I did. :)

I also like the (Only Fools… style) ‘New York - Geneva - Hong Kong - Essex.’ ;)

Have you looked at the security section? (password BISON). It has the press release explaining what ‘really’ happened during the first episode. Genius… (I love the fact that the official report mentions something about them still having time to have tea and sandwiches. :))

I don;t like looking at that interview: it unsettles me that he likes the Proclaimers *shudder* :)

It’s pretty cool site, though. This is a new thing on it:

I was rewatching an old episode earlier ‘The Daemons’, where UNIT manage to miss a live tv broadcast showing the arrival of the devil himself during an archaelogical dig, all because they were watching rugby on the otehr side. :D Gotta love it. ;)

I’m not sure which ones are actually out on dvd now. Well, I think City Of Death is coming out soon, and that is truly excellent. It’s a Tom Baker Story, written by Douglas Adams (under a pseudonym) and it’s about a time travelling creature from another planet involved in art theft in Paris. :D That’s just a generally really good story, so I’d definitely recommend that.

Um, I personally really like Ghostlight as well, which I know is on DVD because I have that one. It’s a sylvester mcCoy story, and it’s got so many layers to it, that it need watching more than once.

Caves of Androzani is on DVD, and that’s pretty popular, as I understand it (It’s a Peter Davison story). I like it, but I don’t think it’s remarkable, especially.

Oh, and if ‘Pyramids of Mars’ or ‘The Talons Of Weng Chiang’ are on dvd then you should get those, because they’re both cool.

I’ll have a think of some more later if you like.

Can’t remember if I posted this link already, but it gets updated to match each episode being shown, so it’s worth going back to it for a laugh:

What did you think of it Misanthropologist and Bad karma?

Of course I liked it ;) I think it’s all settled down quite nicely. I mean, not as a criticism, but that seemed like quite a ‘typical’ Doctor Who story to me. Sort of what I’d hoped for, but nothing more, if you see what I mean? Shame that UNIT didn’t have a more important role (though I guess their computer system did).
An absurd plot (in a good way ;)); Ecclestone behaving more like the Doctor; and it’s not really like anything else on television. It makes me happy. :) I’d still rather there were more stories written by otehr people than Russel T Davies, though, just for variety’s sake.

Yeah, next episode looks great. Rob Shearman is a great writer, so I’m expecting a lot from him. :)

On no other show would anyone be impressed that the enemy can climb stairs. :D

I know what it is. At least, I think I do.

My lips are sealed, don’t worry. :)

Yeah, what was that thing with the weapons? I think they were ‘Massive Weapons of Destruction’ weren’t they?

Billie Piper keeps on about how it’s a love story in interviews. I hope they don’t get carried away with that idea, though..

It was excellent but i can’t the daleks being in another episode this series :(

Shhh! :mad: No need to give away spoilers for anyone who doesn’t know what’s happening next.

But my god, wasn’t that just fantastic?! Brilliant! :D Lots of great stuff in there. I liked the stuff about why the Dalek would kill everyone, it was something like:
Dr:What’s the nearest inhabited area?
VS: Salt Lake City
Dr:Population?
VS:One Million
Dr: All dead. Unless we can stop it getting out.
VS(astounded and horrified): But why?! Why would it do that?!
Dr: Because it honestly believes that they all deserve to die.

Last week, the whole world was in danger, and you’re there watching, going ‘uh huh, ok, the whole world.’
This week, there’s a single Dalek that wants to kill off an entire city one civilian at a time. That’s nasty. I loved it. :D

And play the amusing Dalek game on the official bbc website:
