A new Christmas Tradition
Outside of me having the new tradition of having a cold over Christmas and New Years (or a concussions) for the last three years, the BBC also has the tradition of a new Doctor Who Adventure (story summary), and actually they have expanded it, from an hour long to an hour and a half long one.
This years episode was…. Bizarre, while the new series is rather slick in it’s execution most of the time, this year I found it rather campy, the “ship” had the good old “Doctor Who” feeling to it, meaning you knew it wasn’t what it claimed to be and didn’t really try to hide it either. I suspect Russel T. Davis will hate me for making this observation, but I actually enjoyed it. As much as I enjoy the “new slickness” that the re-imagined Doctor Who has brought (much like the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica), it was nice to see that they still have to use the art of story telling to cover up a low budget.
Happy Holidays.
