What a fantastic start to another series of the smash hit, Doctor Who. Donna Noble returns as the feisty super-temp from Chiswick, in an attempt to hunt down the Doctor and join him on his travels. The first three stories of the series are fun and bubbly, but with some serious storylines running throughout. David Tennant plays the Doctor very well: a goofy, funny charisma with a dark side to him. Catherine Tate's portrayal of Donna Noble is a one off. Her enthusiasm and change of heart (from becoming ditzy to meaningful) is shown tremendously well. The reunion between the Doctor and Donna is written very cleverly, by Russell T Davies, and the directing is top-notch. The return of a familiar species, a change in history and a plan which affects the country... brilliant!
Overall this is a definite 10-out-of-10 - a vivid and strong start to a new series!
