Doctor Who

Luke is actually English which is why I sat giggling at the accent through that episode. Ryan Sampson is a great comedic actor though.
So shocked to see Rose again.
The Brigadier was pretty awesome but was always nothing next to the Doctor. When The Doctor saved the day I did shout at the screen "Who needs the Brigadier?!"
Can't wait for next weeks episode. It is going to be so different with the dynamics of the show.

Yeah! I was listening to the commentary for the episode and was like: 'Who the crap is this guy??' and then I realised that it was the guy playing Luke. OH! AND. Also! He has the EXACT same accent as Jon. I mean, SRSLY. He was on about how the Sontarons stunk of lube, and I just burst out with: 'OH MY GOD, THAT'S EXACTLY HOW JON SAYS IT!!'

And then I realised I sounded like a stalkerish dork and shuttup.

Ryan does the commentary? *runs to find my podcast*
He does have quite a similar accent.

This series just keeps getting better every week.

Ryan did the commentary on this episode...

I found this episode quite ...boring... Not one of the best!

The two Martha's were way too chummy but then again, the clone wasnt exactly in control...its the only thing she has known so to speak.

The American/English guy was too annoying and was so happy when he died...even if he was being all heroic...im just glad he's gone and has no chance of coming back!

I agree they shouldnt have killed Ross though, he was like the icing of a cake.
An excelent episode would have the Doctor, Ross and Elton.
The Doctor being the cake, Ross being the icing and Elton being the cherry on top! This totally has nothing to do with whats being talked about so ill stop rambling and shut up!

[emi]

Elton? Good god no! I HATED him! He was so annoying!!!

Oh! and several theorys on the mother of the Doctors Daughter:

....I'm vouching for 3. and then he went and pulled the old 'Ooops, seperate universes. Can't get through!' when he realiised he got her up the duff. Jackass.

I'd like to add another senario to that. I'll sum it up in one phrase: Jackie, she's a saucy minx...

[emi]

GAAAAAH!! BRAIN BLEACH. QUICK!!! MY EEYYYESS!!

[charliemonster]

She fancies the Doctor really. Either that or she just randomly wanted to kiss a hot guy in Arm Of Ghosts when the Doctor and Rose come home. I watched that yesterday and cried with laughter over David's shock and horror at being grabbed and smooched!

Oh... so... we were ALL wrong then!! Oh well.

And, come on, please tell me I'm not the only one that ADORED this weeks episode! From what I've read already, everybody seems to have hated it! Okay, the first 10-15 minutes weren't that great, and the whole 'Clone' thingy was a bit crap, (The Miss Saigon joke did highlight that first 15 minutes for me!! That was kinda awesome.) but... once the basic scene was set, I really think it picked up and moved with just the right amount of speed and emotion needed for a Doctor Who episode!! It's definately the best out of the series so far!!
And tell me I wasn't the only one crying when that Hath died. And screaming: 'REGENERATE DAMNIT!!' at the screen when Jenny got shot. And from what I've gathered at the commentary, RTD and everyone was originally going to stay dead, but Stephen Moffat (The BEST DAMN WRITER FOR DOCTOR WHO EVER. He's wrote all the good episodes- Empty Child/Doctor Dances, Blink and Girl in the Fireplace...) anyway. Yeah. Stephen Moffat made Russel T Davis make her come back to life.
I don't think she regenerated though, or else they'd have got a new actress in for the final scene... I sorta figured it was something like what happened to Captain Jack in End of Days, where he just needed a bit of time to come back to health properly... or.. something. Who knows? anyway. Yes. 8/10 for this weeks episode, throughly enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed the episode too. It certainly did pick up after the initial disappointment of Jenny being a machine daughter, I really loved it.
I definitely want Jenny to come back again in another episode.

[robjimbobjam]

I also enjoyed this episode!! Although I found it more sad when the Hath died over Jenny getting shot...Is that a bad thing?

Joe Dempsie! He was so good! Really difficult not to expect him to be stood in the background taking pills or something, but still! Uh...The Miss Saigon joke was brilliant although the nest line for me had to be: "Do you even know what genocide is? Tell you what, why not look it up in the dictionary...The definition will be a picture of me and the caption will read 'OVER MY DEAD BODY!'" Or something along those lines....made me giggle muchly

Looking forward to next weeks episode Although I can't wait for the finale this year...cause, you know, Ianto WILL be in it....Not that I've been working out theories or storylines in my head or anything......*daydreams*

[emi]

B..b.b....but like I said, he's commited genocide like.... 3 times! He's killed all of the timelords and the Daleks in the time war (Okay, admittedly, not very well, as like LOADS of Daleks escaped, but there is only like... 1 left or something now! and then the Master escaped too, but you get the idea.) and then he killed all of the Racnoss too!! So... really..... he's slightly hypocritical!!

[Jenno]

He looked so old this week...

[charliemonster]

Unlike Abbie I'm not looking forward to next weeks as it sounds from the trailer that it's the ep with the giant bees. I have an huge fear of bees, wasps and stinging insects so I'm going to spend a large part of Saturday night behind a cushion with the tv on mute.
