On Doctor Who

[pookee]

I've not written anything about Doctor Who yet this series have I? It's mostly because three episodes in, I'm still left with an overwhelming feeling of 'I enjoyed that, but it should have been so much better'. This week, in particular, had shoddy editing and a plot that fell apart so badly at the end it actually fared worse than the LibDems in

Did you really think nobody would notice Lee Ross just vanishing into thin air

That was a bit annoying!

Um, who? what?

The mutinous pirate played by Lee Ross, who was cut by Toby when he revealed that Hugh Bonneville was a pirate and not a Navy captain. When the other mutinous pirate escaped the room, he had to stay behind with Toby, Rory and Amy because he now had the Black Spot. After the 2nd pirate got killed, and the Doctor and Hugh Bonneville returned to the room with Amy, Rory and Toby in it, Lee Ross Pirate had gone. Later on, he reappeared in the sickbay scenes. So I can only assume he was somehow zapped by the Siren but that scene was edited out. Leaving me shouting at the screen 'WHERE"S LEE ROSS GONE?' for much of the episode.

We do see the trailer - and YB had more nightmares last week about the scary green lady than the previous two weeks about the Silents. Which is odd.

I agree that Smith's Doctor is just right.
