You missed the bit where he totally failed to take on Mr Copper as a sidekick because he never has unattractive older men along.

Otherwise, bloody well said!

The bit with the flying angels was NOT AT ALL INCONGRUOUS. I mean really. SNAPPING HIS FINGERS. It's like someone asked me to write Dr Who.

I would have loved to see Mr Copper as a companion. But he couldn't have done much high-speed corridor running, so he'd probably have died fairly quickly...

Which is pretty much EVERYTHING that is wrong with New Who summed up in a sentence.

Just watched it...

Mr Copper: Can't I come with you?
Dr: I travel alone (unless you're female and very cute). *eyes Copper* Byebye, have lots of dosh so people won't notice I only take OMGHAWT (and blonde, bonus) as hitchhikers

Nice one Cavalorn, and Sef, yup, you took the words right out of my mouth.

Ok, I did actually really enjoy most of it despite all the (melted) cheese (with bits of debris in) ...

But the flying vertically up a lift shaft flanked by two golden angels with their fists upraised because he clicked his fingers... (and don't forget more flaming back drops and slow motion simmering glances) despite the fact that the angels respond to VERBAL commands and why the hell would they decide he was the 'next highest power' when Max croaked anyway? That really was one helping of cheddar too far and really spoilt it for me. My partner meanwhile thought it was a hoot - adding in a superman parody alongside the other 70's disaster movie references.

Then the bit where he says to Mr Cooper 'I travel alone' looking all heroic and lonely, I said 'Yeah right!!!' that was sooo weak - I mean did the writers actually MEAN to make him look like his idea of a companion these days is 'pretty ladeeez...'

Still, anyone see anything else good this Christmas?
