So! Two Doctors for the Pudsey Cutaway (and per the usual cutesy piece o' multi-Doctor skiffy, they don't cause a catastrophic paradox)...


And two doctors for 5 eps of S4...


CRACKSPEC OF THE MOMENT: The Martha Jones we see in S4 isn't Martha Jones at all, but the perception-filtered / chameleon-arched!11th Doctor pretending to be Martha Jones (and per a new/the same bit o' Who skiffy avoided collapsing all time & space by going back in time to travel with her/his earlier self, Ten)... for some grand plan to save the universe to be revealed in time for Big 'n' Epic Finale. Pudsey Cutaway = Foreshadowing?? DISCUSS! HEY! Don't look at me like that!! I warned about teh crack!!

ETA. If Martha's return in S4 isn't called "The Two Doctors" just cuz? I'll be a bit upset. Don't care if it be misleading!

Well, I really do think Donna is just the sort of companion the Tenth Doctor needs at this point. Some happy-slapping and calling him on his shit when he needs it might actually get him to face up to those nasty issues of his that have come to drive away his companions in S3, potential and primary. This whole asshole phase really needs to get sorted and I've got some faith the writers are on their way in doing that. Between them bringing back Donna "You need someone to tell you to stop" Noble and Martha giving him a second chance.

It's possible that he does need her, but I can't stand the woman playing her. I despised her in the Runaway Bride episode. I mean full-fledged hate.

He does need someone to smack him back into shape, because I'm not thrilled with him either. Issues aside he's too hyper, too screechy, too... annoying. I just really didn't like season 3 and I hate that I didn't like it.

Old DW ftw!

I admit that I didn't really care for CT's comedy show the few times I've ever caught it, but I've seen her in a few movies in more dramatic roles and she's really quite good. I also hear the Donna we see in S4 will be a more toned down version from the one we saw in TRB.

Too bad about you not liking S3. I had some issues with it myself, but for the most part, I enjoyed it a lot more than I did S2 (with the exception of GITF, still one of my favorites of the New Series).

Classic Who is always the win. *rewatches Second Doctor eppies*
