Series 4 kicks off in rather quirky style, a fat fighting conglomerate are using a telephone sales company to push its pills. They seemingly have flawless results until the fat turns into cute little figures. Head of the corporation is a very spiky humourless Miss Foster, played by the tremendous Sarah Lancashire. The Doctor is battling loneliness and seems ready for a new companion.
I know it has a slight CBBC feel to it with regards the Adispose, they are so damn cute, i'd still love to have one.
As likable as Martin Ball is playing Roger Davey, could they not have got a chunkier actor, he's tiny :-)
Love Donna's insults towards Martha, who fancied the Doctor, mad Martha, charity Martha...... Martha suffered from the Rose hangover, that would not be Donna's fate. I love how she bamboozles him.
OK so it's not the best story, and there are some elements that belong to the Mr Tumble show, but the characterisations are superb, Sarah Lancashire is great, Sylvia Noble is fun and Bernard Cribbins is an absolute joy, but I will forever love Partners in Crime for giving us Donna, to this day my all time favourite companion, I long for her return still!! She proved so many people wrong, she had the lot.
That little glimpse of Rose made my heart sink, it changed the mood, what a clever shift in gears, and how pretty does she look!!!!
Flawed but tremendous fun 8/10
