Doctor Who: Christmas Special 2008: The Next Doctor
In brief: Russell you cheeky so and so!!
In depth:
I’ve come to the opinion that Russell T Davies is quite possibly the most evil man known to exist. Oh sure. He writes for a show that enthrals the nations kids but quite simply he is just diabolical.
He deliberately chose a nicely ambiguous title – The Next Doctor.
David Tennant’s Own Journey’s End
Chris got here before I did… so in that regard I’m not going to offer much in the way of news… but more some immediate thoughts on the announcement.
Perfect Ten will be sincerely missed.
I think the last series proved how completely David Tennant encapsulated his version of the Doctor. How thoroughly he understood what the role was.
And frankly, for myself, how much of a sheer joy he was to behold. His enthusiasm was nothing short of infectious.
If Tennant was a drug on the market, I’d be on it.

Doctor Who: Series 4: Journey’s End
This review comes in two parts, due to length and detail and brilliance.
In-brief: Big. Though something lingers…
In-depth:
Let me say this first of all – this episode is good.
After four years, this is where we are now. This is how Russell T. Davies chooses to end his tenure as the producer of Doctor Who. It’s an epic plot, tying together all of the strands from his previous forays into this universe, and indeed those who have come before him. There’s a certain amount of glee here in the concept of the Doctor, and perhaps that is the problem. As much as I wanted to love this episode, I have to say, it simply wasn’t as spectacular as I wanted it to be.
Doctor Who: Series 4: The Stolen Earth
In-brief: I’m about to explode.
In-depth:
This is it.
This is what Russell T. Davies has been building up to for the last four years of nuWho.
This is Doctor Who firing on all cylinders. Full out rush from start to finish and my Gods, it is brilliant.
Doctor Who: Series 4: Midnight
In-brief: Disorientating, but not in a bad way…
In-depth:
This episode is a very strange one because I do believe I liked it, and it told some interesting concepts is a very tight manner.
We begin on the leisure planet of ‘Midnight.’ It’s an isolated location because the planet is found in orbit of an extonic star which emits a radiation type that prevents any form of life as we know it from existing outside of sheltered habitat. Also, there’s no kind of atmosphere so that prevents the whole breathing process quite handily.

In-brief: What a rush!
In-depth:
There are two stories being woven here; incredibly this episode builds upon its predecessor in all the right places, answers all of our questions satisfactorily, and resolves the mystery of the week.
Doctor Who: Series 4: Silence in the Library
In brief: Good – but definitely a part one…
In-depth:
It’s very hard being in love with a television show, because you absolutely want to love it all and give it the best possible score you can. Except that wouldn’t be fair.
That said, ‘Silence in the Library’ is another winner this year for Doctor Who.
