tonyh29 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Last time I watched it Tom Baker was the Dr Might have to check it out now though based on your comment :-) Edit: couldn't wait that long so just googled her... Holy crap she's fit and with a hint of jailbait in some pics edit 2 : jailbait in the good sense not in the errrmm jailbait sense Edited December 27, 2012 by tonyh29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) The assistant used to be in Emmerdale. My mom never did quite cotton on to why the period the new Who assistant was on the soap coincided with my being able to stand watching a second of it. She's also in the Captain America movie for about 2 seconds. Edited December 27, 2012 by Chindie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Haven't watched it since Kylie Minogue was in the Christmas one years ago. That was just unbelievably bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted December 27, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 27, 2012 Like the new assistant a lot. Also, the sword-wielding lesbian lizard woman from the beginning of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Watched it with the kids even though Sci fi really really isn't my thing. Anyway, watched Dr Who, thought it was just fine, lots n lots of jokes to keep it rolling. Particularly enjoyed the Sherlock stuff (you have a goldfish called Colin). Lesbian Lizard woman was good to keep the dads interested, but it is, at the end of the day a perfectly watchable kids programme. My nipper is meeting the new assistant in the Spring, but, as my nipper is a nipper I have to go along as escort / chaperone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I really liked the christmas special this year. Most years they are just awful but this years was pretty good. I really like the new companion. She seems like she will be better than Amy but no one can replace Rory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Bet you're just devastated about that It was one of those delicate conversations with the missus where you have to make it look like you're not bothered either way, but make sure its yourself on child minding duties. I think I clinched it when I mentioned the really tricky car parking at the venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Doctor preferences: (1) Tom Baker (by a country mile) (2) Patrick Troughton (3) William Hartnell (4) David Tennent (5) Christopher Ecclestone (6) Matt Smith (7) Paul McGann (8) John Pertwee (9) Peter Davison (10) Colin Baker (11) Sylvester McCoy Peter Cushing is non-canon, but he'd probably be just above Pertwee.

She isn't particularly attractive IMO, the new assistant is a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only watched the newer series' starting from eccelstone so couldn't comment on others my order woul be.. 1) eccelstone 2) smith 3) tennant Know that may be controversial but I just felt tennant overacted at times (plus he has an annoying face that I wouldn't mind to punch).. As for assistants (permanent only) 1) billie piper 2) Karen Gillian 3) Catherine Tate 4) Freema A Even though new one could top them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I agree with Tennant overacting at times. Think russel t davies' writing may not have helped at times. That said I really thought he'd be a tough act to follow but within the first change to smith i was convinced. Eccleston however was better than both. I hope they go older with the next dr itd be a shame to reduce it to pure cbbc kiddiness - its occasionally skirted the line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 1) eccelstone 2) smith 3) tennant I'd agree with this. Tennant was dreadful at times, seemed to only have two expressions, and couldn't really do the whole troubled doctor thing properly. Eccelstone on the other hand had the doctor nailed, shame he only did the 1 season. Smith definitely fits in the middle, he's suffering though because he's "not tennant" and for some reason loads of people like tennant simply because he's a pretty boy, despite the fact he was pretty damn crap.
