After waiting for the return of Doctor Who since June last year, we get a gigantic, steaming pile of crap from Russel T. Davies. This man is an absolute lunatic who just should not be writing for a science fiction/fantasy series, and especially not for Doctor Who. He's gotten over himself and written some decent scripts in the past, but this is just about all I can take from him and his super-sized ego.
So get this, we have 'cute' monsters made from living human fat. Yes, living human fat. Then we have a pantomime villain, another spaceship hovering over London (Davies is at this point not only really NOT listening to the fans, but it appears he's trying to annoy us), and loads of cute little monsters crowding the streets. Dear God. Even the worst of the Sylvester McCoy years at least was earnest rubbish, this is just insulting.
Thanks for bringing the show back, Russel. Really, thanks a lot. Thanks for your better scripts too, I enjoyed those. Now please leave. Apparently he is set to leave following this series and the specials. I cannot wait. I just cannot wait.
Insulting tripe.
