Smith and Jones: First Glance

A solid episode with all the entertainment and action that Rose offered two years ago. By necessity, a vehicle for introducing Martha to the Doctor and vice versa – Smith and Jones had a hungry alien criminal keen to remain hidden, Sontaran-esque alien police officers and a dose of Martha’s family, which I hope they won’t overdue. Remember what Micky was like in the first episode – ARGH! He thankfully developed over time… but I could do without that sort of experience again. And we have the appearance (or mention, as least) of Saxon, both in word and poster form. Where will we be going next with that little thread?

Countdown

Would it be appropriate to get excited now? Or should I wait until later in the week? Seems like only yesterday I sat down to watch Runaway Bride… This weekend, the third outing of the Doctor in this new millennium graces our we’re-not-worthy TV screens. Hurray for the Doctor! Hurray for Russel T! (has he been lined up for an OBE yet?)
