The official synopsis: "David Tennant returns to his role as the Doctor and meets his brand-new companion in the highly anticipated third series of Russell T Davies's Doctor Who.

For Martha Jones, a medical student in Central London, an ordinary day turns into a nightmare when her entire hospital is transported to the Moon. There, she has to battle the Judoon and outwit a blood-sucking Plasmavore – but can she trust a mysterious stranger called the Doctor?

David Tennant plays the Doctor and Freema Agyeman plays his new assistant, Martha Jones. Russell T Davies is also the executive producer."

Oooh! I've always wanted to start a thread like this How sad am I, eh?

The plasmavore sounds interesting! I wonder if he's the strange motorbike man. And i wonder what he has to do with the Judoon.

Who else thinks that the TARDIS will pull the Hospital back to Earth at the end of the episode like in "the satan pit" when it pulls the rocket out of the black hole?

But all in all it looks like a good episode. Like most series openers i'm sure it will be crushed by the critics, but they probably wrote the review last year and have been waiting to release it upon the public because they always do the same.

But i'll love it. Russell T. Davies, David Tennant, a total re-start on the series (A completely different cast since the first series! ) So i'm a bit worried about how it will be recieved. Just because it worked for David Tennant doesn't mean it will with Freema (But i've got full confidence in yah girl! )

Can't wait! 11 days to go...

I just knew it!

It was a toss up between you and Joscos who was going to get in there first!

pmsl!

You said it in a different post so i thought i'd satisfy you by doing it Hope i made your day! lol

I am looking forward to the lively discussion on the RTD thread tonight!

lmao me too!

I have two new recruits on my team! I forget their names - but they're good at getting my points across lol (btw i don't actually know them, but they think the same as i do and they are just better at putting it across )

Judoon make DW 73% real.

you should find your own voice rather than relying on others to fight your battles. your voice/words are just as valid as anyone else's on here NAF as are your opinions.

Ooh i know that but i always say it wrongly and then something i say doesn't quite register the way it's supposed too....

.. i'll just leave it to the clever people to fight my battles cus im lazy like that

at least you know me well BG, i was gonna do one for the series finale in June.

Let's create our own versions of the "Two worlds" in this thread:

Doctor: I have a sonic screwdriver!
Martha: I have a stethoscope.
Doctor: I make cutting remarks.
Martha: I cut people open
Doctor: I stitch time rifts.
Martha: I stitch belly buttons after hernia operations.
...

start one now..you can never be too early!

OMG That's so funny! Can i use it for my MSN name? PLLLLLEEEEAAASSEE

"at least you know me well BG, i was gonna do one for the series finale in June."

Not if i get there first

The way DW's reality has been increasing in the last few weeks, the fantasy will be us before the series is over.

This episode looks so wonderfully epic. The Judoon stomping on the moons surface, the amazing effects, Martha and the Doctor and the whole adventure looks perfect!

I agree, this episode could well be your masterpiece.

*jigs about* I'm too excited. When it's on, the week seems to go so much quicker...

Well it took me long enough to write the damn episode

10 mins instead of the usual 5?

No! It took 15! :O

I am expecting a masterpiece if it took you that long! don't disappoint me or you will incur the wrath of the Black Guardian of the crack in time!

Nothing to worry about then

Well it's been screened, and I hear it was a bit of an average episode. More like a version of "Rose" but for "Martha", with the alien threat being sidelined for the Doctor meets Martha storyline.

I do hope not. sure introducing Martha is an important factor but we have 13 weeks to get to know her so the emphasis should be on the story.

Bit disappointed, two episodes screened, and so far not read anything in the way of positive comment on their content, except that Freema's okay.

well after two, 'less than spectacular' opening episodes it would be nice to start with a bang....

Sooo bets are on who will start the "smith & jones" thread and when, my bets are on about wednesday...
