  6. The Day Of The Doctor - The one thing you can be certain of is that with Moffat in charge for the 50th anniversary special it is going to be epic. And in that respect this story doesn't disappoint. I agree almost entirely with your review. The part with Queen Elizabeth adds nothing to the story and is annoying. It is played largely for laughs which doesn't really work. I don't mind The Zygons in this but they are largely under utilised and don't really add to the plot. And that's really my only negatives. Great to see UNIT and the Black Archive. Gemma Redgrave and Ingrid Oliver work well in this story. I like how Moffat brought Billie Piper into the story. It's nice to see her working with Hurt rather than Tennant. Coleman is excellent. The pacing is perfect, the special effects are great and the writing - well one of Moffat's best. The Time War is well handled. Always nice to see Gallifrey and The Time Lords - Moffat does the job of bringing them back without actually bringing them back (if you get what I mean). But as it should this story belongs to The Doctors. Smith and Tennant are both excellent. And their interaction with the older, more serious Hurt is sublime. As a true Whovian it's fabulous to see all The Doctors working together which is cleverly done. And I love the cameos. As a life long Whovian Capaldi deserves his part even though he hasn't officially started in the role. Lovely to see Tom Baker at the end. They were both a surprise as it should be. I would happily watch this episode again and again. Gallifrey Falls No More. Overall 9/10

  7. The Day Of The Doctor- As much as I love this episode, I do have some issues with it which stop it being one of my all time favourites. Firstly, The Doctor's are amazing. Matt Smith is great as always, Tennant seems like he never left, he's so great, and John Hurt is fantastic. I wish we got to see more of Hurt on tv, I know Big Finish did some stuff with him, but the fact he only got to star in one television episode seems like wasted potential to me. Jenna Coleman is good, as are Jemma Redgrave and Ingrid Oliver. I loved seeing UNIT again, and the Black Archive is filled with easter eggs, which I love. This episode does a very good job at still managing to be its own story whilst having so many easter eggs and references thrown in at the same time. The return of Billie Piper is one I'm unsure on. Of course I think Billie Piper is excellent, but here her dialogue is more annoying than interesting or humorous for the most part, at least to me it is. She's a great actress but I'm not really a fan of the material she was given here. The same can be said for Joanna Page. Her version of Queen Elizabeth isn't that interesting, and her romantic subplot with The Tenth Doctor annoyed me more than most. It was played for laughs, but it rarely worked. The Zygons themselves are a let down here as well. They are wasted in a story which didn't need them. If the episode just focused on The Doctors and the events of the Time War, I think I would enjoy it a lot more. When it is focused on Gallifrey, I love every second of it. Whenever we go back to the Zygon story, I find myself much less interested. The banter between the Doctors is the highlight of this story, along with the final 20 minutes. Seeing all of the Doctors come together to save Gallifrey is still a moment which gives me goosebumps. The way that was handled was also smart. New Who up to this point focused heavily on how the Time War and the loss of Gallifrey affected the Doctor, so it was always going to be difficult to bring Gallifrey back permanently in a w ay which didn't undermine the rest of New Who, but I think Moffat rose to the task and did something very clever with it. The return of Tom Baker also makes this episode so much better. Overall I think this is a very fun celebration of Doctor Who, albeit not a perfect episode. There are some things which annoy me, but I can watch this and have a great time with it. The charisma of the leads and the (for the most part) excellent writing makes this an enjoyable episode. Overall- 8/10.

  13. Child's Play remake was excellent. It was better than the original and was certainly well adapted for the digital age. Definitely worth seeing even if you are not a fan of the original.
