I wouldn't say Doctor Who was the worst show ever, but I do think it's one of the most over-rated shows ever. It belongs on CBBC. How it appeals to anyone over the age of 10 I don't know.

In YOUR opinion..


Of course it's my opinion, I'd have thought that was obvious, since I WAS asked to give my opinion by the OP Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

You mentioned Doctor Who being the worst show ever? That's going OTT, there are far more worse shows. How about Love Island? You obviously didn't get what I meant.

Maybe in his opinion it is the worst show ever though? I dont mind Doctor Who but it is hugely overrated.

My way of disagreeing Wink Though I agree it can be overrated at times.

Decent enough first episode - though the change of titles is a bit too American for my liking.


The trouble though with any series like this is that how ever many times Robin Hood is captured, you know he'll never be killed.


Also, good to see they've kept their own credits rather than going for the 1970's style massive fonts now seen across the BBC - but the BBC still use the ECP making them completely unreadable - a situation which could easily be rectified if the BBC ECP used the full width of the screen.

And the Attack of the Xenas last series didn't get you? :p

(incidentally, they had the dogtags last year)

[PS: Series 3 has apparently been commissioned already]

You're telling me - what an absolute campfest! Not only does Marian lose her "Maid" status in a possible show of political correctness, she also becomes a babe and the series' answer to The Bionic Woman! The rest of the cast appear to have been cast on looks rather than acting ability. Michael Praed has nothing to worry about.

Teletext were right to describe Keith Allen as a pantomime Sheriff but he is still the only true talent in his family. Even if he doesn't deserve to have his contract renewed in the event of a third series:

It's a "legend" FFS - not based on fact at all, just rumour - and as with all rumours, each time they are told the story gets rewritten slightly!


The casino thing does look very out of place though - but at the end of the day at least their aren't Daleks roaming the forest!

The new titles are awful.

'IN THE HEART OF ENGLAND LIVES A LEGEND' - has this been covered by Screenwipe yet? Because it's dreadfully patronising.

edit: Oh, and... in case this hasn't been mentioned...

Shah Mat is the root of the English word 'checkmate', and means 'The King is dead'.

What was wrong with the original titles, the new ones are a cross between a US programme and something you'd see on children's programmes (well what children's programmes are left!).
