Tennant looks like the wind would blow him over. CJ does nothing for me either.

To answer Eileen's point; what does it for me is John Barrowman's knowing performance as CJ. A sense of humour is the sexiest thing in any human being and you can just tell he's having a blast doing that role... |

Thank god someone agrees with me! I feel like everyone has got on the Tennant bandwagon.
Tennant looks like a little old man to me - you can see how he'll look in 30 years time. That gaunt old face just stares back at me. Infact everything about Tennant seems overhyped to me. Casanova was so over hyped by the BBC - it must have cost them a fortune. Tennant was adequate but no more. I'm sure he'll be fine at the comedy aspects of Dr Who but I wont hold me breath for anything else. I'll put a good bet on it that Tennant will win the Bafta for Casanova - pushed of course by the BBC. It will suit the beeb to have the new Dr get the gong next March/April. |

I mean, I like CE and thought his Doctor was excellent; but he was far too Madchester laddy to appeal to me... |

I've never seen David Tennant before, so his acting abilities are currently unknown to me. The shaking of the head and the few word he said [Barcelona?] didn't really give much away. Genie's right; he'll be quite good at the comedy aspects, but can you imagine him with the daleks? I think Russell T has got his work cut out there.
On a slightly different note, I must say how pleasantly surprised I was with Billie Piper's acting; it's a shame she's leaving. |

And to think everyone believes Dr. Who is a FAMILY show... (mind you, Joe Orton used to lust after Fraser Hines when he played Jamie in DW in the 1960s, so I guess there's nothing new in the world...) I like the analysis in this review. I had a few qualms myself when the Doc started getting fixated on Rose, but it all turned out nicely. Very clever stuff. |

I thought she was leaving mid-way through the series?

At the press screening of the last ep, it was confirmed she would be in the whole of series 2. |

It's up on the BBD website somewhere as well but I'm too lazy to find the link

Sorry, went very o/t there. I guess we'll have to wait and see how DT's DW turns out. CE's DW was an absolute revelation, and will be sorely missed by many; and yes, the combination of the character's humour, intelligence and compassion was irresistible, imho, and added hugely to the series' appeal. Will be very interesting to see how much of that character is echoed in the new DW.
