DOCTOR WHO - DAVID TENNANT in VOYAGE OF THE DAMNED
SPECIAL EPISODE - VOYAGE OF THE DAMNED - Preview Photographs
 
 
"...You need someone to look after you
— can I come with you..?"

PLOTLINE

In saving planet Earth from the renegade Time Lord known as the Master, the Doctor and Martha go their separate way. Alone again, at least the Doctor has his TARDIS and an ever expanding time/space vortex to wander through. The last of the Time Lords. Still within but for ever moving forward.

However, as the TARDIS collides, it seems, with the doomed RMS Titanic as it is due to be launched the Doctor must defeat a new alien menace.

EPISODE REVIEW - Initial comment.

Sorry, BBC WALES, you've put a lot of work into VOYAGE OF THE DAMNED but it seems that filming in a disused Welsh Paper Mill may have been apt. 80% recycled concepts that produce an inferior product that you are morally forced to enjoy because it's there and everyone else is doing the same.

And what what what have you done to the iconic Delia Derbyshire theme music - she'll be spinning on her reel-to-reel machine in despair. Murray, less is more.

Time to "rest" the drama series for a re-think, re-group and re-assessment of what DOCTOR WHO is and can deliver?

That's an initial comment minutes after the end of the episode. Oh, wait, a bauble has just voluntarily dropped off the Christmas Tree. Now, that's the highlight of the evening.

SERIES 4 trailer?

Thank you, Catherine Tate, the Savior of DOCTOR WHO!
