David Tennant was perfect. A great introduction to the new doctor. The ending was the perfect setup for the next series...
And the trailer for the next series got me all excited... can't wait for Spring.

And here are the top 10 shows for Christmas Day.
This is just a cut and paste from the BBC forum, so I make no promises for its authority. (Anyway, it should be 9,400,002 since nobody asked me and Mrs G about it.)
For anyone who could give half a hump, the population of the UK is 60,441,457
1 EastEnders 10.1 million (BBC1) Grim Soap
2 Dr Who 9.4 million (BBC1) Jolly good show.
3 Coronation Street 9.4 million (ITV1) Grim Oop North Soap
4 Two Ronnies Christmas Sketchbook 7.9 million (BBC1) 1970s comedians (the unfunny one still alive)
5 Shrek 6.7 million (BBC1)
6 Emmerdale 6.6 million (ITV1)Grim Farming Soap
7 Toy Story 6.5 million (BBC1)
8 Celebrity Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? 6.3 million (ITV1)
9 The Queen 6.2 million (BBC1) No, the real one, not "Beelzebub has a devil put aside for meeeeee..."
10 BBC News 6.50pm 6.2 million (BBC1)

They even have this Firefly / Serenity thread. Feel free to pile in.
I feel the need to administer a verbal kicking to George Huxley. Supercilious twat.

Really quite dissapointed with the Christmas Invasion. Tennant did well with what he had and I'm sure he'll be a fantastic doctor but a sword fight??? I had trouble believing Tennant could lift the thing let alone fight an 8 foot warrior alien with it. I thought the whole point of Doctor Who was he doesn't solve his problems with violence. He out-thinks his opponents. That seemed to be the whole point of bringing in Capt. Jack, an actiony guy and a clever guy.
Also, can they give the sonic screwdriver a rest? I love it too, but it's a sonic screwdriver, not a weapon. I want my doctor with different gadgets, not one gadget that can do everything the situation calls for.
Anyway, enjoyed moments of the ep, but as a whole it just didn't do it for me. Still looking forward to season 2 though.

I liked CE, I thought he was pretty good.
I like the newest one too though...
I signed up to the BBC forum, but couldn't reply to the thread...
The buttons it said sould be there, erm, weren't...
I was going to say something else, but I've forgotten what it was...
Edit: Oh! I remember! I didn't get why the six words had the effect they did. Unless it was an all in her mind thing...
But that would just be lame, IMHO.

Okay, I saw CE, but I still don't know what this 'one of the greatest one-word descriptions of Earth' was. Someone want to illuminate? Put it behind a Spoiler tag if you like.

it was obvious once the leaks started coming
at the beginning something got out and she made an off the cuff remark about who is it leaking stuff to the press.
and then when he said that to the aid (who is adam garcia from coyote ugly) it was obvious

I'd missed the press leaks entirely, must not have been paying enough attention...
