Doctor Who NS2 Show 7 The Idiot's Lantern

8/10



Take an ordinary street and extraordinary invading alien and make certain Mark Gatiss

is writing the script.



The Doctor thinks he is New York sometime after the invader has established itself.

You must wonder how he ended up in London instead of New York; Celestial Intervention Agency?



Still the Doctor arrives to find himself meet Magpie the cheap television ,

Mr. Gallagher getting pulled from the house and a Connelly household in confusion.



The Doctor's chase leads to a dead end with a visit to the Connellys. Senior MR. Connelly

seems to be less than invting and a bully.



The Doctor finds a faceless old lady only to have the Police snatch her.



The Doctor pursues the car and Rose looks at the TV for a clue.



The Doctor is caught by Bishop and Rose goes checking up MAgpie.



After the Police picks up a faceless Rose, the Doctor goes into ballistic mode.



Morning of the Queen's Coronation and a maniac is loose.



Th e Doctor with Bishop makes a visit to the Connellys. The Doctor confronts Senior

and enlists the help of Junior.



At Magpie's Electronics, he meets the House of Electronic horrors.



The Wire tries to take control only to take bishop and free the doctor and Junior Connelly.



The Wire and Magpie make off to the broadcast tower and the Doctor goes shopping for the parts he needs.



The confrontation on the transmitter is classic. Magpie is consumed and the Doctor remark about Rubber Souls works well.



Still the Wire is recorded on Beta and can get taped over.



Still North London is free and everyone is celebrating the Coronation.

NS2 Show 6 Age of Steel

8/10





Both Part 8/10



Review well done.



Opening escape sequence , surprising and cheesy, wasn't that suppose

TARDIS power up?



Still the Mrs save the day and those emotionally attached to

Jackie will have to leave her.



Ricky and team decides on who is traitor while the Doctor and team

decides on a plan of action. Pete Tyler is found to be

the inside mole.



WAIT!! Lumic decides to seize London.



The Cyberchase is on. Ricky is shocked out. Still the others

make it to the rendez-vous and even those without ear pods can resist.



Simply yet complicated plan, above at ground at below.

Can you Say The 5 Doctors?



Still the Doctor and the Mrs scrpae by with the Mrs

having a weapon like an EMB only to be shocked.



Mickey and team takes control of the zepellin.



CyberJackie identifies Peter . and blow their cover.



I like Alex Ferguson resisting John Lumic. Dare me he does not make it.



End game, the Doctor does get his message to Mickey and wins the day.



Mickey proves to be the hero with the Doctor's

help. (I wonder if the Doctor believes the Smiths are idiots 8-> )



CyberLumic gets cut, but will they be back?



A touching ending indeed!

NS2 Show 5 - Rise of the Cyberben

8/10 .



Some good themes here.



Rise of the Monopoly and your ability to curb self thought.



Start scenes are good. Lumic target Great Britain and the Doctor is surged

out of Space and Time (please wait for Age of Steel) .



Still Pete Tyler would sell his soul and Jackie is the Party girl. Rose is a dog in this universe

and Mickey is Ricky the Brave.



Nice to see some cyberthemes kept. You have to see Tom of the Cyberman to understand.



I never carry a cell phone. Rise of the Cybermen does well to addresses this tehme of

the addiction to real time information.



Ending.



GREAT!! Rickey Mickey, Rose , Pete , the Doctor and the resistance to be executed?



To be continued!

NS2 number 4 The Girl in the Fireplace

7.5/10



The writer is good - however not up to par with School Reunion.



The start: creatures invade a Palace. A man of high authority steps in to start evacuating his mistress.

She says to go back to the queen and that calls the Doctor for help.



You something is wrong in time and space.





Enter in 3100 years from now the Doctor, Rose and Mickey onto a spaceship.



Mickey is gawking and then the Doctor is ponderous about a hole in space.

He find a fireplace only to find a girl on the other side. The Doctor and Rose and Mickey takes a look.

Quizzical about why they would find a girl on the other side, the Doctor investigates. The Doctor is taken back to 18th Century France to find he is in the bedroom of the girl in the middle of winter. The girl awakes and the Doctor hears 2 clocks.

Exploring under the bed, a creature knocks the screwdriver from the Doctor hand. The doctor recovers the screwdriver and find a creature dressed in a current apparel with a grotesque mask. The girl is aware that the creature is reading her mind and the Doctor challenges the creature head on. The doctor lets it attack him and spin goes the room. The use of a fire extinguisher put to rest the attack.



Everything back in the 51st Century, the Doctor discover the creature to be a machine and decides to interrogate it and find out why the time corridors. The machine teleports out and all searches break loose.



The Doctor decides to go back to see the girl and the companions decides to fire extinguish around.



The Doctor meets and young lady who turns out to be Renete Poisson who will soon be known as Madame de Pompadour

while the hunters goes hunting. PLEASE!! The Doctor was not stalking!! Optical eyes and and human hearts turn up in the oddest place.



The Doctor come back only to find Rose and Mickey not in place and a horse on board. The Doctor goes looking for his companion horse following him.



Funny line: "Quit following me; I am not your mother". The Doctor finds the stable and further investigates.

He knows that Madame de Pompadour is the target but why?



Mickey and Rose come across the the time when Renette and the King first dances. Camilla comment appropriate.



Machine turns up and the Doctor and companions spring into action. Freezing the android, they try to discover what this is all about. A matter of 'complete'. And the droid disappears. The Doctor tells Rose and Ace to carefully pursue.



The Doctor reads the mind of Madame and she in turns get the goods on the Doctor. Someone please explain why?



SO the Doctor Dances and the Droids picks up Mickey and Rose.



Upon return the Doctor feigns drunkardness

and ties down the druids thank you. He did pull the plug and then they work up. The doctor does try to

tuen down the thermometor, but no dice as the Druids found their target.



Rose goes back 5 years before the attack and Madame will hep and finally,

the Versaille Court and steed issue. The time link broken,

the day is saved.



Too fast pace.



The Doctor would have taken Madame only to reach her

just after her death.



You still see the vulnerable Doctor.



This script should have had 20 more minutes.
