London Deserted

[alexsarll]

Well, that was more like the real meaning of Doctormas, wasn't it? The classic Who story about the evils of big business, a few festive nods without resurrecting the sodding pilot fish, a cameo by the Queen. An "I am the Doctor" speech (I always love those) and Kylie heartrending as Halo Jones x self-sacrifice. Like so many RTD scripts, little lazinesses stop it being a classic - if £1m = 50 million credits, then Tittybangbang woman's topical 'phoneline debt of 5,000 credits is only £100, but hey, that bit was ideally placed for me to recharge my glass. No 'The Hopes And Fears Of All The Years', probably not even a Christmas Invasion, but not a disgrace like last year either. And what do you know, in the trailer at the end, Tate even managed a couple of lines that didn't make me want to tear my ears off!

Also: Merry wobs to you all, even the heretics like half my family who ignore the real meaning of the season and don't watch the Doctor Who special.

Does every fvcking assistant have to snog the doctor though? Didn't you see Tate doing snogging with Ten? Pffftt.

Was lovely though. Would have been lovelier without my family.

I'm hoping the Tate snog at least has some explanation - like the Martha one did, or when the Doctor took the Vortex out of Rose. But yes, retire this motif kthxbye.

Did you see the Torchwood trailer after? So much Spike/Jack homoeroticism.
