Audio: Reaction to Matt Smith Leaving Doctor Who
For those of you that haven’t heard, we advise that you go to this link: BBC Doctor Who official blog So we knew we had to react to this news, but we both wanted to comment so we had the idea to record our conversation in our kitchen, where we do most of our post-telly watching analysis, and transcribe the discussion for our readers. However we do tend to get a bit carried away and […]

“Nightmare in Silver” S07E12 Doctor Who Review
I’m not sure where to begin with this episode of Doctor Who. I walked away from watching it with no real feeling about it. Would I be keen to watch it again? Probably not. Would I throw a tantrum if someone put it on? Probably not. And that’s not really great is it? Yes sure, it wasn’t bad, but then it wasn’t brilliant either, and with this series being fairly hit and miss already I […]

“The Crimson Horror” S07E11 Doctor Who Review
I’ve never been a massive fan of Mark Gatiss’ contributions to Doctor Who. He’s never written a travesty, but then he’s never written one that I’ve gotten giddy about.

“Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS” S07E10 Doctor Who Review
Hooray! My cunning plan to declare the series is on a downward slope in the last review in the hopes that Steven Moffat would rise to the challenge and spit in my eye worked. Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS has thoroughly left me with egg on my face and I couldn’t be happier, though I may need a flannel. It may have taken 5 episodes but we have finally have been gifted not […]

“Hide” S07E09 Doctor Who Review
After the erm episode 3 and the universally reviled episode 2, finally a storyline that feels like good old fashioned Doctor Who. Haunted house, check; rainstorm, check; two guest characters that are secretly in love with each other, check; scares that aren’t really scary but are the kind of family friendly scares that apparently give children nightmares – you know, the best kind, check. And thank God for that as we were starting to wonder […]
