Note to Mr Davies - stunt casting bad actors (stand up and be counted Kylie - and it wasn't as if anyone who had seen you 'act' didn't know who terrible you are), never a good idea.
This was poorly written, and generally badly performed (kudos to Clive Swift, the only one to emerge with self-respect intact). Davies scripts can be wonderfully witty, and very clever - but can also be appalling mawkish - this was one of the worst (and not surprising after the tacky shout Tinkerbell, children ending to series 3).
Only for completists and, I assume, to notice Bernard Cribbins who seems to be turning up S4 too.
Being a huge David Tennant fan as the Doctor, and a bitter and twisted one after watching this over Xmas with also the re-runs, sadly this is one of worst adventures of David Tennant's time as the Doctor. Please don't bring back the Hosts and the very average/poor'ish actress named Kylie Minogue for another encounter. Not a patch on the first David Tennant's first encounter (the Xmas story of 2005) in my opinion.
Having said all that, the kids will no doubt love it - I've just grown up, become critical and lost some of my imagination.
