much better than i thought.
they have (for now) dropped the most annyoing aspects of her character.
i really loved the 1st 15 mins when she was acting on her own trying to get the info she needed i hope we see more of that it was the key failing of martha they started out with own thoughts etc and endedup just being a muppet to the doc.
Always thought she'd be fine and didn't see anything that changed my mind tonight. Some great scenes especially the miming thing through the windows. Looking forward to what comes next.
In all honesty though, there have been some incredibly shocking assistants throughout Dr Who, rose (no pun intended) tinted spectacles seem to sway some people.
But I was stunned to see Rose, never saw that one coming!
I thought she was fantastic. Yes there was a couple of lines where she overplayed it a bit, but then the script has descended into farce at that point. The first half was where I felt she really showed that she does have decent acting ability. I'm looking forward to seeing her in a darker episode, something more serious and see how she handles that. Once the writers get a grip on the character, and we see Tate get settled into the role, then I think she's gonna get much better.
Is very poor the lowest you can vote, she was worse than awful. Only to be matched by the dreadful script, how many times can one use a sonic device and be credible.

Never give in, never surrender! There are millions of us who feel the same. Er, hundreds of thousands. Um, thousands. Ah, hundreds. Hello, is there anyone out there?
Polls on episodes within any TV series are not very useful since those who hate the series (and know they hate it) will not be watching. Therefore for most TV series you tend to get a very high AI (audience Appreciation Index) for practically EVERY episode!
Polls for one-off programmes and films are much more valid since you have a cross-section of people. Some will like a film/some will hate it and so on but they don't know that until they've actually watched it.
I would say that the people who really can't stand Catherine Tate simply did'nt watch. I like her as a person but don't find her acting at all convincing in drama. I rated her Poor because at least she tried.
I think theyve certainly watered her character down abit, because in the christmas episode she was loud, not too clever.. I thought that shes definetly had abit of a character change. Although that scene with her and the doctor mouthing to each other through the glass was hilarious. I think her character will definetly bring more humour into this series.
Excellent. Very funny at times, loved the mine scene. I hope she stays on the funny side, without too much of her cringe-worthy sketch characters coming in. Two thumbs up from me!

That doesn't really wash on this forum, people will watch the show regardless of how much they dislike CT and judge it accordingly.
Very good, but then so was Martha at first till she turned into Rose-lite. At least Donna should be more likely to tell him to pull his finger out when he gets doomy, which after all the adoration can only be good.
And please ditch the mother! The most annoying thing about new Who is the famlies being dragged into it far too much. Grandad's okay but please no more shrieking mothers.
I thought that she was very poor in it, but I thought Billie Piper was terrible at first so I'll keep watching to see if she improves. I didn't see The Runaway Bride so I don't know how good she was in that.
Everybodys saying exactly that - she looked older then her mother. In fact she looked older then Cribbins..
lol! I thought she was less annoying than in the Christmas episode but then again in that I knew (or at least thought I knew) that she'd only be around for one episode. Now she's there for a whole series and I'll just have to take one episode at a time.... (voted poor btw)
I'm also not convinced she won't fancy the Doctor :rolleyes:
That silent conversation scene was just briliant. Loved it. I don't like her comedy show, but in this she is masterful (or should that be mistressful?). The darker hair colouring also suits her.

Yeah that was funny. I loved the way at the end the others in the room were watching them.

Fixed that for you.
I take it you were channeling Comic Book Guy?

I am looking forward to watching a new type of relationship between companion and doctor

Bit of a stupid comment really
I have had a look on Wikipedia and this is what is said.
