In the closing scene of the Doctor, Martha, and the TARDIS in an alley...

...I spotted a "Vote Saxon" poster on the wall. As in the character Mr Saxon, allegedly played by John Simm, and who allegedly turns out to be The Master. All very "Bad Wolf", isn't it?

I spotted that too.

All in all I thought it was a decent enough episode and indeed quite funny with a lot of in-jokes and good continuity in regards to the past series.

As with 'Rose', it was to be expected that this episode was to be a slow burner.

Next week's looks stunning.

To be honest I was a bit unsure how tonight's episode was going to be considering Series 2's opener was crap.

However I really enojyed it, Martha Jones is going to be a great companion, and seems to be a more feisty companion.

It's odd not seeing Billie Piper there, but give it three episodes and some may be saying "Rose who?" Wink

Anyone else get the "Aliens from the Planet Zovirax" joke? Laughing

Confused: I didn't.
Someone explained it on the Outpost Gallifrey website. It's a reference to the commercial for Zovirax where a biker shows up all dressed in black.


I was wondering what it had to do with coldsore cream Laughing (Zovirax)

What commercials.I can't recall ever seeing a commercial like that


It's actually a VERY old commercial. I think they started showing it in the 90s, but they started showing it again recently. It basically has a woman who has a coldsore dressed all in black with a black motorcycle helmet, just like those aliens Martha in Who was describing lol

They may have cut it when they replayed it, but at the beginning of the advert, you see her getting off a bike in full black leathers with the helmet.

TBH, I thought of the Stig when I saw the helmet geezer.

I thought that was a great episode. Do they in hospitals now? Seriously though, it was better than last series opener. I missed who wrote this one, can someone remind me? It was RTD wasn't it?

All in all, it looks like a great series, especially seeing the episode titles, and after watching the red button preview.
