    I second that, keep it simple. You cannot improve on Davies' ideas and format. David Tennant makes a great Doctor, a very refreshingly modern twist on the old typecast role. But I'm still not too sure how much more of Catherine Tate I can tolerate.

    I agree with Russ. The KISS principle has been abandoned, leading to complicated, bizaar story lines. No comparisonm with the really good lines of the original series, and those that followed.

    Having praised the return of Dr Who as some of the best TV the BBC have produced in years I find myself disapointed overhaul with the 2008 series. Too complicated for the younger audience, too silly for the older audience. Get back to Mr Davies's original ideas and keep it good old fashioned hide behind the sofa material or it will dwindle into obscurity over the next year or so...
