Doctor Who is back on our screens tonight (BBC One, 6.15pm) with a brand new series. Hopefully it'll be a good'n and longer than the previous series, which seemed to fly by. I'm hoping this series will have some good original aliens as well as the old favourites, but also to travel time and space a bit more.
The way the show is set up means that the main characters can travel anywhere in the universe and to any point in time. Therefore, when an episode is set on earth, with monsters that are either disguised as humans or look like a man in a suit I'm a little disappointed. Even when they travel to another planet, it always looks suspiciously like a quarry in Wales, or at least somewhere on earth. I'm hoping this series will have a bit more of a wild imagination when it comes to where and when the Doctor and his companion travel to.
The new monster robot alien things for this series are the Spoonheads. These sound remarkably underwhelming. Spoonhead seems more like an insult a child would use rather than a terrifying foe for the Doctor to battle, but you never know, maybe we'll all be petrified of using spoons by tomorrow.
Anyway, here's hoping for a good series. At least there is another attractive assistant again.
