Why RTD is really getting on my nerves
So it's less than a week to Waters of Mars. The beginging of the end for the Tenth Doctor.
And RTD and the BBC are really starting to piss....me....off
First RTD:
I'm going to slide right past his clear hatred for both OldSkool Who and his own continutiy. While I'm grateful to him for brining it back some of his decisions in recent seasons do not sit well with me (namely turning people like the Doctor and Sarah Jane against things like UNIT and Torchwood and despite having a long relationship with them and making it seem as if amature defense is brilliant. Nothing agaisnt SJ but there is only so much you can with a supercomputer in your attic and bunch of kids). Plus his turning Tennant into SuperDoc has also annoyed me. He really seems determined to scupper everything before he leaves.
But I will move past that to the nub of today's problem. He says in an interview that in Waters of Mars "The Doctor makes some remarkable decisions which might suprise the audience. It's like the saftey net has been taken away. Who know's what the Doctor is capable of."
Which is if you'll excuse me COMPLETE CRAP.
The Doctor has always made decisions and done things that suprise the audience. The First Doctor kidnapped his companions for pete sake. Seven picked up Ace only beacuse she was part of some grand plan to defeat Fenric. And need I remind anyone that in his first few seconds of life Six attempted to strangle Peri?
The BBC/ The Radio Times: In the review for Water of Mars the Radio Times (controlled by the BBC I suspect) the writer starts with the line "The Doctor's death is approaching".
Once again this is crap. The Doctor's next regeneration is approaching maybe. The Tenth Doctor's death is definatly approaching. But not the The Doctor's death. We know he's going to be fine. We've all seen the smiling photos of Matt Smith in Harris Tweed jacket and bow tie.
I'm frankly no longer suprised that people arn't willing to give Matt Smith a chance. With David Tennant and Ten being lauded as the Most Awsome Doctor Of All Time what hope does he have.
I really feel sorry for him.
