^^^^^ Ditto, she is really gorgeous. Also I couldn't stop laughing at the creepiness of the baby as well.

I wonder if Steven Moffat's watching? He'll get an idea of a new monster if he is...

She is a bad horror show.

I've never been a fan of Alan Davis or JLo but either of them would make better better companions than KG.

Shame she didn't get to do much. Ok, it's not surprising that Jennifer Lopez would be the main guest (and she was a lot funnier than I expected, too) but I only tuned in for Karen, so wished she'd have had more time. Got to say, she seems really shy - always covering her face when someone made a joke that related to her. She seems really sweet.

Plus, I loved seeing the Graham Norton cartoon get exterminated by the Dalek!

My mum always had a saying about when you have nothing nice to say. Can't remember quite how it goes, but I'm pretty sure it applies here.

Sorry Helbore. Your mum is probably right. I do struggle with every anti Amy (or as it transpires KP) post that I make. But equally I am entitled to an opinion. Just as you are.

Opinions are just fine - but why express them in such unpleasant terms? Just because you are hiding behind a pseudonym on the internet, why not just say: you don't like her as an actress...or in the case TGNS, why did you watch anyway? Just to post: "She is a horror show"

That's not an opinion, it's just vitriole disguised as such.

Is Katie Price playing Amy now?

No wonder you don't like it, cuttlefishspike - she gets everywhere.

No problem with opinion. "Bad horror show," however, is a bit harsh. She really didn't do anything to deserve that.

Not liking Amy, I'm fine with. Not liking Karen, I'm fine with. Being unnecessarily insulting to a person who does nothing more than sit on a sofa and talk, I think is a little unfair.

She's only a young girl doing her job and did nothing unpleasant, harmful or insulting in that interview. Opnions shouldn't be used as a defence for unkind words.

No insult intended to you, BTW. As you said, you struggle with the point your making, so obviously already understand it's "issues." I just think it's unfair to throw such remarks at someone who isn't doing anything remotely wrong.

EDIT:

I take back my bad horror show comment. Bit unfair.

(and I like bad horror shows)
Just to add, I respect you for saying this. Many people don't back down once they've said something. Props to you and I also respect your opinion that you don't like her as an actress, even if I do.

i don't hate him or anything....but I am unsure of his "joke" about Matt looking like a 12 year old....I don't want to start any attacks on Alan, but it felt like he was having a little dig at Matt, or maybe the joke about his age just fell flat on me because I have heard it many times when Matt was first announced.

Thanks for that- she's a bit 'giggly' for my tastes and doesn't interview brilliantly

I had no idea you and he were acquainted...I'm presuming you aren't the only person...but what makes you think that anyone else cares about your feelings towards him either way on a Doctor Who forum? Shouldn't you be in "Showbiz" ?

He strikes me as being one of those so-called comedians who gets a cheap laugh out of someone else's expense.

Nope.

Got the impression they were told not to touch JLo though. Usually the guests all shake hands/hug/kiss. But nothing until the guy from the band came over and shoke hands with them all. She did come over a lot better then I expected though.

Alan Davies was touted as being a good candidate for a possible new Doctor about eight years ago, I think he might be a tad jealous that he never got the chance

lo, but he DOES look like a 12 year old...and a 40 year old...and a 100 year old...and a 905 year old...that's why he's The Doctor

People still aren't getting the difference between: "just another job" as professional actors see it and...

...OH MY GOD IT'S DOCTOR WHO I MUST KILL MYSELF IF I DON'T GET IT! as fans see it...

...a job is a job is a job - if you happen to enjoy doing it (as some DW actors have, some haven't) then you are lucky but if you audition for it (allegedly) a decade ago...you're not jealous over someone who's playing it now, silly boy - that's just thinking fanspeak.
