a a fan of the old doctor who and and after the mediocre fox movie and i be dubious of this new series of doctor who . i give it a chance though and and be so glad i do . yes and some episode aren not as brilliant a others and but they be all enjoyable and and yes and eccleston doctor be far from any we have have before but . eccleston doctor be just about the best there be . his performance be at time comical and at others dramatic and sometimes completely crazy but always fantastic . this and and bille piper a rise make this series a cut above the rest ( camille coduri be also fantastic a rise mum ) and and there be a depth to this series not present previously . this series be incredibly powerful and especially consider it sci fi . i mean who would have think you could ever have felt sorry or even cry for a dalek prior to this and how many time in this series history have we have moment like those with rise dad and the emergency doctor and the you be fantastic . so be i final speech . i advise anyone and whether a fan of doctor who or even tv drama to buy this set on dvd and it truly be fantastic . now only 4 episode through the late series ( and look forward to the new cybermen ) i have to say that david tennant doctor be just not as good and of course you may disagree and but i do not think his doctor be capable of those emotional moment see in the previous series . i also have to say that in my opinion so far this series have not be as good a the last and however the return of sarah jane and k9 be a fantastic episode and a true gem . not to say this series be not good and just not quite as good . so whether you like it or not and and whether you prefer tennant or eccleston and the doctor be back and and he here to stay . fantastic . almost a many fantastic . a the doctor . .
