Rose, Donna and Martha

[tari_roo]

So Season 2 is done, there's been a runaway bride that isn't Julia Roberts (but still had red hair) and now a medical feisty Martha.

My thoughts...



I wasn't sad to see Rose (and her family) go but I was kinda touched by the whole scene and the Doctor's emotions about it all. Rose certainly added life and spark to the Doctor and as much as she annoyed me, I think I agree with iyalode's sentiments about her being good for him.

But Donna (Catherine Tate) just cracked me up no end. I really really wanted her to stay with the Doctor. Her humour and thickness about some things was just... wonderful! The whole story for Runaway Bride was fantastic and I liked the parallel's to Amy in season five. Red headed brides obviously made an impression on Ten :)

I hope Donna appears again! (Don't spoil me if she does)

And now Martha. One episode of season three in and I already like her more than Rose. Quick, witty, intelligent and well... kinda wonderful (and this after just one episode).

I look forward to more Martha.

I am restraining myself from watching more season 5 as I don't want to get the sequence any more confused than I already have.



And I still find the Daleks utterly ridiculous. How can anyone take them seriously when they have no discernable ability to open a can of soda without blowing it up? Sure, sure, they got weapons and a giant sucker, but really? no thumbs, no fingers, no ... I give up.

*snort* Russell T Davies! :) Thanks for the insight :)

Alas, I had already left the UK by the Dr Who (new) started so I missed out on all that.

Have you seen the Never Mind the Buzzcocks episode that David Tennant hosted? the one with Catherine Tate as a guest? One of my favs (next to the Josh Groban one).

I just watched 5.8 and 5.9 and all worried about Rory... sigh.
