Must disagree. Billie Piper was brilliant. Long intro in Rose? Carried it well.

She has been following a very low profile acting career in good low budget stuff that requires real acting.

Because she has the pop history, there was a certain amount of "...cast including Billie Piper, this'll be a right laugh...hang on, that was actually very good..." And that means good by any standard.

No critic writes her off lightly.

After viewing the intial two episodes, I think Piper (Rose) is going to be one of the best companions the Doctor has had.

Does that seem right to you?

My favorite female companions of the Doctor are:

Leela, Tegan, and Nyssa.

I may be the only one who could not stand Peri. The whiniest companion anyone in any series has ever had. I could not tolerate her crying and whining all the time.

Does that seem right to you?

There is one other person who didn't like Peri-me. The male companion I dislike the most was Adric.

When I think "Dr. Who" I think "low tech". Yeah yeah...I know they have come a long way since the Tom Baker days, but do you remember the black & white episodes? Monsters that were obviously garbage bags and metal trash cans....LOL. Despite that, it was still fun.

The only "special effect" I found REALLY cheesy were the historical photos showing Dr. Who. Doesn't anoyne on the other side of the pond know how to use Photoshop??

Yes, we know the Photoshop.

It sells the glue and scissors you need to get that "special" effect.

Shame about Clive.

(Is it me, or can anyone else no longer hear the word "special" in anyone's voice but Book's?)
