Dr Who is back, and it now feels like it has never been away. Instead of the interminable wait for the new series (now replaced with the wait for new Torchwood), I have the interminable wait for the next episode and the calculations of when the last episode is on, and if it will clash with annual holiday…..
Vote Saxon. Is that the new Bad Wolf, is that the theme running through this series, and Ror Marsden, I had forgotten what an absolute master actor he is. Memories of DCI Dalgliesh came flooding back. Good to see him on the screen, if only to fall fowl of an ex Dinner Lady with a straw.
Whilst I can confess to having seen every single Doctor Who on it’s first TV airing, and the Peter Cushing movie at the Cinema, one thing bugged me in last nights Doctor Who. All these years and I had thought TARDIS stood for Time And Relative Dimensions in Space. Last night they clearly in both speech and subtitles lost the ‘s’ from Dimension, making it singular. It now doesn’t make any sense to me. Am I just being picky?
