andraste: Oh, Pants. (Happy Death Day)
So: how about those Doctor Who specials, then? On the whole I enjoyed them, with a few reservations. Which is what I'd say about the first RTD era, come to think of it.

First of all: much as I was looking forward to Tennant and Tate returning, I was unconvinced that the Fourteenth Doctor would feel separate enough from the Tenth Doctor to justify giving him a whole number to himself. However, I am glad to have been entirely wrong about this. While of course he's got a lot in common with Ten, the performance feels distinctive enough that you can really tell that he's been three other people in between. Even if I'm still convinced that RTD really did this to make the number of Doctors line up with the number of actors after Moffat put the War Doctor into the timeline, it ended up feeling right to me.

Spoilers accidentally renamed one of the fundamental forces of the universe, oops. )
