a a child i be never in a situation where i could be introduce to dr who and though i have hear of the series in pass and i never really realize exactly what it be . it be and then and with some hesitation that i sit down to watch the ninth doctor and his antic have be tell that he be something like arthur dent ( from the hitchhiker guide to the galaxy ) but cooler . i can not believe what i have be miss out on and seriously and why have no one tell me about this before . my entire childhood be deprive of doctor who adventure while me be a tremendous fan of most sci fi and fantasy adventure . honestly and i thoroughly enjoy it and look forward to any future episode . i have to admit that at first i be not so sure that billie piper would be the best actress but i be happy to say that she do very well and i think and and add a very realistic touch to the series . i think and actually and that be one of my favourite aspect of the series while the contrast between great alien conflict scene contrast with the infuriate normality of the south london council estate life . i be always interested in instance where people ideas about the world be drastically challenge and how people can take any situation and edit it in their mind so that it may fit in with their mundane life . i also love christopher eccleston . i haven not see many of his film and i have never see another actor a dr who and but i think his portrayal of the doctor be brilliant and immensely likable and yet dark enough to make you wonder . i find that many other character with his sort of character history tend to be a bit two dimensional while they have all the right emotion and action and but they always seem slightly shallow . this doctor and on the other hand and earn my loyalty with his stratified personality . i agree with some of the other comment that a high budget for the special effect and alien and whatnot and might have be a bit more effective . but then again and this isn not about special effect ( though they help ) from what i have read and hear from long time dr who fan while it the spirit of the whole thing that really count . and i do not think they do a bad job with what they have . i quite like all the alien but my favourite have to be the daleks while if i ever know anything about dr who before watch the series and it be that there be thing in it that look like upturned dustbin on wheel . previous to watch and i be quite sceptical about these pepper pot threaten the existence of humanity but some of them be quite scary . which i love and of course . overall and a good show . i look forward to future episode with delight . the doctor have a new fan .
