Some thoughts. If you're still denying the existence of Eleven, avoid.

Okee, so I decided I would do a reactionary post each week, just cos I can. I'm a little bit late to the party - always am - but I figured I might as well share a few quick thoughts. So...

See my favorite line from that episode came from Liz Ten, "I'm the bloody Queen Mate. Basically, I rule!" I have been saying it all bloody Day!

I don't think of Doctor's lines as Ten or Eleven or Nine or Eight lines, I think of them as Doctor's lines. they are all the Doctor.

Hehe, that was indeed an epic quote! Liz Ten was awesome, I loved her. About as far from the typical Royal Family image as possible :P Not that I don't think the Royal Family is marvellous and everything.

Oh, of course, I know lines don't really belong to a specific Doctor and they can be used by several incarnations. But it's good to know where phrases have originated and stuff. The person who quoted that line has embarked upon a quest to watch all the episodes now anyway, so he'll find out doon enough :)

I am pleased you are still enjoying the new Doctor and his adorkable Companion. I enjoyed this eppie muchly and a black, kick ass, working class monarch, BRING IT ON!

[fireflylive]

We should ask for a kick ass working class black monarch when Liz two cops it!

[lifefailsme]

We totally should! Skip jug ears and his kids altogether and let's get a nice working class black Monarch who can take to her streets and clear them up \0/

[lemon_pencil]

YES! Though our Queen Liz is pretty awesome too :D

I am completely with you about the Daleks. A great cry of 'not again!' goes up from me whenever we've had to see them since the end of CE's series. I thought they'd killed them off. Stipid me, this is SciFi, I should know that no one ever really dies.

I am liking Matt. He's taking a bit of getting used to but this week was much easier than last week. I like the trailing off and never quite finishing his sentences and the slightly enigmatic pauses.

The feel of the programmes has been good. Opening graphics are great, but that music is going to take some getting used to, I did love the one they used in series 2-4.

The whole 'forget' and 'protest' buttons were brilliant. I loved it and it couldn't come at a better time seeing as we are now 'gripped' by the election (well, some are. Frankly I wish I could press the 'forget' button on it).

Karen Gillan is great, I'm really enjoying her as a companion.

[lemon_pencil]

Yeah, see I never believe them when they say the Daleks are gone now. I'm like 'Yeah okay... until the next time'. I was hoping they'd leave them out for at least one series, but no :/

Hee, Matt's just so excitable and geeky and adorkable :D As for the music, I feel like we needed something new because of it being a new era and all. I did prefer the old one but it wouldn't feel right for it to be the same, know what I mean?

Oh, I'm definitely gripped by the election. It's the first time I can vote though, so it's pretty exciting :)

Haha, "wet t-shirt look" yeah if you like space whale vomit. ;D

[lemon_pencil]

Hee, yes I don't think she'll be winning any 'sexiest Who moment of all time' awards covered in sick :P
