Love it! I've watched some of the last series but never got in to watching it because of the fluctuating quality of writing. This first episode was fantastic though! :D

Re: dr who...
 

Afraid that is my opinion too. They've 'improved' it by making it flat and lifeless.

Pity really, because that was a superb first episode, well above the standard we've had recently.

I don't like this low brow Sci-Fi stuff.

I love it.

The new Doctor will take a bit of getting used to, but then so did David Tennant,

first episode very good.

Doctor Who Smilies!

neither did his lordship

The theme tune is growing on me, very very slowly.

It's just too flat, desperately missing Delia Derbyshire's original notes.

`The Beast Below`......................not bad , second one in and we have already got the Daleks returning next week, and did anyone notice the final shot last night..? another `crack` in time.....mmmm, i wonder.

Re: dr who...
 

missed it, was getting ready to go out, i'll watch the repeat

Re: dr who...
 

That's our little running theme this series, a bit like 'Bad Wolf', 'Torchwood' and 'the Doctor-Donna song is coming to an end' were a few years ago.

The Daleks are always wheeled out as a cushion when producers aren't 100% sure of a season going well but fortunately they needn't have worried in this instance. They did it for Patrick Troughton's first story and within two weeks everyone had forgotten that William Hartnell was ever there, much like everyone has instantly accepted The Boy now.

Re: dr who...
 

watched it last night, thought it was a bit up and down in parts, wasn't as good as the first episode

Re: dr who...
 

The final episode of the current series is apparently called `The Pandoric Opens`...........well i wonder what will be coming out of there then....? Daleks(surely not again) Cybermen (possible) Sontarans(bloody terrible , hope not)The Beast(maybe)The Master(not again!)...........lets have something new and original for the new Doctor.........................................

Re: dr who...
 

Watched the first but missed the second. Don't know what to make of the new boy. Too much gurning for my liking, and the opening plot was a little contrived and simplistic. Time will tell. John Pertwee will always be my favourite.

Will watch the repeat on BBC3, 9pm Friday. Probably take a series before we can make a proper assessment.

Look out for another old monster this series, but with a twist.
