Who set for 6:45 on Saturday

I like to squash their tummies. Then bite off their heads. The pound shop sells a big bag for, er, £1. I like 'em better than Bassett's.

The Master- Dr , I'll make you a deal, all right? You take your Mojo, you keep your money... but I get your baby. I want my baby back baby baby back ribs, I want my baby back baby back baby back ribs... CHILI'S... BABY BACK RIBS!


If this is correct we're only 7 minutes till Belgium

How long till this show airs on BBC? What times is it over there anyway? Im on Eastern time .
 
Started off slowly but it's getting into its stride. There have been a couple of laugh-out-loud moments. Tennant's doing well for a guy who wasn't long out of hospital when they filmed this.
 
Contender for least subtle 'arc-word' ever present and correct.

I liked this. The Waters of Mars I think may be better though. Was Lee Evans Welsh for any particular reason?

No Megazord though, so plus points already :D

Arc word? You mean
"Your song is ending"
or "
He'll knock 4 times"?
 
Well I gave it an enjoyable 4 knocks out of 4. :evil: Picked up nicely towards the end despite a slow cold start in the heat.

Christina was just the right side of cocky but somehow I wouldn't want to see her become the Doctor's companion long-term.

Lee Evans was also the right side of tolerable too. :bolian:
 
The second. Probably both actually, but mainly the second, cos everyone knows Tennant's going so the first is no real surprise.

Should probably spoiler code that actually, considering the thread hasn't got any warnings on it. You know what people are like...

Even though I knew better, I was hoping she'd
run in to the TARDIS when he unlocked her.
I liked the slow start, it was nice to have a slow build up for a change.
 
I wasn't expecting much from this special, and to be honest, I thought it was pretty pedestrian. Always nice to see 10 though.
 
A bit too much of a campy romp for me, rather thin on actual plot.
The combination of Stargate, Lara Croft, summer holiday and probably half a dozen other references were too distracting for me. On those grounds alone I'm glad Lara... err Christina won't reappear. Aside from the fact that (apart from Robin Hood) the beeb wouldn't want a criminal as a hero-figure.

I was aggrieved at yet more insect people - we seem to have an insect obsession. Then when they turned out to be fairly decent types, they got needlessly chomped. Would have been better if they'd lived, and the Doctor had delivered them somewhere else at the end (like their fly-nest).

The only saving grace was that no-one sang, and Una Stubbs didn't show up.
 
I just have to say i hate jelly babies but love gummy bears they used to be a 1p each at my corner shop and my dad used give me a £1 to get him some.:D
I thought this was the weakest of the specials.
