Who: The Forest of the Dead

Bah! But awww..



OK they went for the simplest possible route and there were no real surprises for anyone with half a brain but wasn't it just a great episode? Decent ideas handled well and the Doctor the most Doctorish and least annoying he's been in years. He could almost have been McGann. Oh such high hopes for Moffat as the producer!

So it's pretty clear then something unpleasant is in the cards for Donna. I'm now quite worried about her and part of that's because I've really grown to like the character. After two lovesick 20-somethings, a normal woman in her 30s just getting on with things was a blessed relief and she had some really good scenes this week.

Her back is the thing though. What's the deal with her back? The Spiders from Planet of the Spiders come to mind, but.. hmm.. mind controlling bugs is all a bit Babylon 5. What's going to happen to her?

I slightly dread next week and the inevitable drop in quality. Terrible trailer.
