Still not ginger (Thenew doctor who thread) - Page 5

There was a lot of tense bits? I liked it well enough. Currently debating weather he really deserved to give that little speach at the end or not though.

Also how stupid are they not to catch the two-head thing? I said it straight as he mentioned the race having two heads- surely one of them should have got it.

I think we can forgive most of them for being a little stressed and not paying much attention to the Doctor. I know I missed it when he said it, which is disapointing since usually I catch these thing. The Doctor himself though, no, he knew and he screwed up, but he did own up to it.

Also thought about it a bit mroe, why didn't angels disable each other by looking at each other like happened in Blink?
And that radio bit really annoyed me, much more scary thinngs you don't understand than things you can talk to and reason with. Wish they hadn't gone that route.

...Good question. It helps a little that they mostly only move in the dark, but it got hectic at the end, not sure that stuck.

And yeah, talky thing muuuch less scarey than non-talky. But it did give them the excuse to start killing properly (though I'dve thought they could get by with just the one voicebox whatsit). It's been pointed out to me that their method of killing people is pretty lame.

Pretty nonsense episode but last 10 minutes totallyworth it.

I liked it.

Professor Smarmiarty · 05-01-2010, 02:29 PM

I think my biggest problem was the whole Angels will think you are looking at them. That makes no sense to me. Can they now actually move when you are looking at them but choose not to?
It was supposed to be some sort of quantum observer thing- that doesn't decide whether you are looking at them or not.

Steel Shadow · 05-01-2010, 03:26 PM

The quantum defense doesn't make sense anyway, really. But yeah, so.. they have no problem moving around all over the place when you blnk, but if you're wandering around with your eyes closed... Ah forget it.

Aside from that, decent episode. Amy's cool. Next weeks looks interesting.

I a little bit apprenhensive about picking up Amy's fiancee. He was a bit of a wet sponge when we last met him.
