The Christmas Invasion

Who would have dreamed that we would be getting thirteen (well fourteen) brand new episodes of 'Doctor Who' for one year only? So the next thing that we know is that two more seasons will be made and two Christmas specials! Hurray! And before I start to get in further detail I have to say some thing – its "fà ??à ????" as the wonderful ninth Doctor would say.

Russell T. Davies' writing of the episode is up to the standards of Robert Holmes and Terrence Dicks (Robert and Terrence are classic' Doctor Who' writers and are two of my personal favorite writers)! He gives the script the excitement that a good story needs as well as a bit of 'glamour' humor which you can expect from Russell.

Before 'The Christmas Invasion' we only saw the tenth Doctor (played perfectly by David Tennant who is Britton's favorite actor voted by the people, for the people and of the people) in the children in need special. I have recently sent a letter of to David saying that just by the children in need special he is going to be a great Doctor. Many people have said that he is not the right choice for the Doctor. But after I played 'Attack Of The Graske' I ran onto my computer and logged into MSN messenger and a shouted to them 'IN YOU FACE'! And they admitted that they admitted that I was right about the David Tennant being great!

Billie Piper. Hum? What can I say? How about – Billie, you play Rose Tyler like you are Rose Tyler! She carries the love that she has for the Doctor so good that she pulls you into the story and shows you the adventure from her eyes. After all, Doctor Who only takes the best!

Another aspect of the show is how Mickey and Jackie are played by Noel Clark and Camille Coduri. It is really good that the production cast keep bring Rose home because again it shows you how the Doctor has an effect of the people who he takes Rose away from. And it also has an effect on Rose and the Doctor. You can see how the Doctor falls in love with Rose in the second season. And I shouldn't really say but I cannot wait in any way for the moment were Mickey joins the Doctor and Rose in travels in time and space!

'Six Words. Six words and I can bring your government down'. That is how power full the Doctor is. "Don't you think she's looking tired'? The character Harriet Jones (not from Fly Dale North any more) is a wonderfully and brilliantly character created by Russell. From the moment when she tells Torchwood (ill talk about Torchwood in a little bit) to fire, her character goes down a level. And when I saw the new Doctor walking to awards her my heart started beating because I knew that the Doctor would say murder. And she knows that she shouldn't have done what she had done but she makes a good excuse, which would have worked if the Doctor were not there of saying 'that was defense'. But the all the Doctor really had to say was murder.

However I have seen some things, which don't really let the story down, but for me it showed that the money was starting to rum out. First off all its one sound effect that stands out. When the Doctor presses that great big button that never should be pressed it sounded like a Dalek firing its gun. And then it's the music. You can tell that the same music was used aging because if you watch 'World War Three' in the middle you will her citron bits of music if you get what I mean.

Other wise the episode is great! And my special rating for this story is ten out of ten. It is going with my personal favorite episodes along with; 'The Daleks' Master Plan', 'The Tomb Of The Cybermen', 'The Mind Robber', 'Spearhead From Space', 'The Claws Of Axos', 'Day Of The Daleks', 'The Ark In Space', 'The Caves Of Androzani' and 'Dalek'. But before I go I have to say that my favorite episode of all time is 'The Ark In Space'.
