If you've taped this and haven't watched yet, you know what to do.
Back comes The Doctor for a new series, and back comes Donna Noble (and it seems Rose Tyler - yay!). Both turned up at the beginning pretending to be Health & Safety. Ha, there's a few jokes in there!
Anyway, this week's evil and crazy extra-terrestrial was assuming the name of Miss Foster, head of a diet pill company. Officially, the pills helped people lose weight (although why the skinny bloke was taking them, I don't know). Unofficially, the fat was formed the tiny - and actually quite cute - Antipose, an alien lifeform whose home planet was lost.
Cue action, as two sonic devices came head to head, and CGI effects with the Antipose waddling through London's streets. Very impressive.
Look forward to the rest of the series, especially as Donna a)does not fancy The Doctor, and b)appears from this showing, to be a bright and able assistant.
Great start to the new series!
