h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Petulant stomping off done with, I'm resubscribing.

As you were.

Good to see you back Roy

Hooray!

It's only because I couldn't find anything to replace the Who thingy on the PS.

Symetry is all!

Welcome back Roymondo!

in the interests of symmetry does that mean now he has joined again someone else has to leave?

I'll get me coat.

Crikey, that were a bit good! A bit of clunky dialogue going on but what's a cliche between friends?

Marvellous.

That was interesting, at least the subplot about Saxons goons trying to trace the call.

Wasn't sure about the episode in general though. THe baddies were pretty creepy I suppose but I think it was just too much of a rehash of "The Satan Pit".

What was that look from the Doctor after Martha came back into the TARDIS all about?

Traveller in Time just been watching with the family
"Exciting, great "

I thought that was great. Nothing like a countdown to generate suspense, and there were some very creepy moments. And the Saxon stuff was even creepier. Well done Chris Chibnall. And Graeme Harper.

One of the best episodes this series, I thought. Nice "dirty" sci-fi feel (similar to "Impossible Planet"), good pace, excellent use of lighting, reasonably-good performances, interesting villain, good SFX. My only problem was how they escaped from the sun at the end which struck me as a bit vague and possibly "pulled out of the hat". Maybe I need to watch that bit again.

I can't wait to find out more about Mr Saxon...

I wish somebody had edited out 'They're picking us off, one...by...one.' How is it possible to put together an episode that great yet miss a line that trite? They should be ashamed of themselves!

Still blinkin' marvellous though.

And they just had the Jagaroth ship on Confidential.

That was my favourite episode of this series.

So I had to leap onto the internet and register my satisfaction within minutes

Good episode

Confidenial was fun too with all the Matt Irvine stuff...not fair that I look older than he does though !!

Just finished watching that one. Wow

Didn't like the 'one...by...one' line either, Roy, as you say, far too trite. Overall, though

I really enjoyed it and I thought for a sec that the Doctor might have actually regenerated mid-season. I'm sure they cheated slightly with the countdown (ie missed a few minutes out near the beginning) but it was still fantastic. Can't wait for next week
