Yes...I thought it was strange Rose being the Bad Wolf. Didn't really understand that bit so I'll have watch that bit of the recording again later tonight!
But it was a SUPERB episode! Truly a world class 45 minutes worth of drama and entertainment. And with David Tennant now in the role, I can't wait for the Christmas episode!
I wonder whether it will on Christmas day?
And I hope today's hot weather has not tarnished the ratings at all, because television like that deserves 20 million watching...although those days are now over!
Argh, I can't get the download to work. The sound's fine but the video ain't there - I take it I'm missing a codec or summat.
Back on topic - I don't understand why they didn't just go from the countdown into Doctor Who itself. The hype had been built up, we were ready to go, the clock hits zero, and suddenly we get an ident and a bored announcer telling us ... well nothing, in fact. They didn't need an announcement, and it just killed the momentum. I take it the network and Wales people at least sounded interested, unlike in Scotland, where the announcer seemed more interested in the lottery show.

"So, intergallactic drama now -- from BBC Wales".
Disappointingly though, he didn't use the special frontcap -- mind you that's been pretty sometimeish all series.
BTW, Andrew, What codec does your clip(s) need? I've got DivX 5.2.1 and had no problems. I'm thinking the problem is that not everyone has the required codec?
AFAIK, if you get AVI converted to a format like RealMedia you minimize the amount of people who will encounter problems -- RM seems to be fairly popular, if not the standard, for clips I've viewed.
