Doctor Who Series Five: UK pace thread [edited title]

Fuck, sorry Electric Warrior, can’t get that quote right. Plus ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The Pandorica Opens

Well, it’s good you can narrow it down. Some. :smiley:

I’m liking the new Doctor too…I’ve already commented on Amy and her ‘we’re going to RIO’ fashion choices.

It would be great if they just broadcast 55 mins of a black screen with the message “The universe has ended”

:smiley: Those are all the episodes that have moved me, or reminded me of a show that I started watching in 1973. gulp

I must approve of Amy’s fashion choices, the * Vincent * ensemble makes me come over all fashion editor - nice long blue coat and scarf, mini skirt, and boots, and ridiculous unbelievable hair. sigh

Tonight’s the night! Can’t wait, it’s gonna be awesome :slight_smile:

I’m terribly excited. My brother is coming round in an hour or so, and wants to go to the pub to watch the football. I hope he understands that I’m going home to watch Doctor Who and then spending the next few hours typing shit on the internet.

this isn’t going well at all. At all

That’s very very close to what my list would be, except that I didn’t like “Love and Monsters” - not sure what I’d replace it with, though.

So close now!

…ha ha!!!

I think I missed the first 20-odd minutes. Well done me.

I’ll just rest my eyes. A wee nap. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

C’mon iPlayer, update, you hideous twat-knocker.

Spec-fucking-tacular!

That was the best bit of TV I’ve seen all year. I was looking forward to it all week, and by God it didn’t disappoint.

…I"m going to go out and buy a bow tie and a fez…

I got nearly everything wrong, but the scene where River said “Let there be light…”

I got something small right!

I thought that was pretty good. The bit with

the fez (“Yeah. I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.”) was hilarious, as was the bit where the Doctor jumped about the museum to snatch a drink for Amy.

On the other hand

Didn’t really like the whole “If you remember people, you can bring them back bit”. That seemed a bit contrived to me.

Other than that it was very entertaining. I give it 7[sup]1/2[/sup] out of ten.

I thought your first spoiler was one of the funniest call back moments I’ve ever seen on TV. I giggled mightily.

I disagree about your second spoiler. I thought that was well established in previous episodes. If it was contrived, it’s been being contrived all season.

I don’t remember them explicitly establishing that. Which episodes are you talking about?

Somehow though without being as kitchen-sinky as the RTD finales.

It was entertaining, bringing back the good Doctor by simply remembering him was a bit, indifferent, but good fun.

Two points;

i) Is the RTD continuity now over ridden or rebooted?
ii) Is it possible to eat chips and fish fingers and simultaneously hide from the Daleks? My daughter says no :smiley:

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

Rory. Rory!

That was pretty great to be honest.

Yo American downloaders and pirates! Is that a well-known phrase re weddings where you are?
