SFX has just posted the first 3 episode details from the new Doctor Who series for 2010.

Episode 1: "The Eleventh Hour" (by Steven Moffat) to be shown 3rd April 2010

Episode 2: "The Beast Below" (by Steven Moffat)

Episode 3: "Victory of the Daleks" (by Mark Gatiss)


Personally, I think Gatiss + Daleks = great episode.

Decided I wasn't going to get time to watch this at home so I bunged it onto the walkman and watched it at work instead.

Really enjoyed it but surprisingly I struggled to tune into the young Amelia's accent... being Scottish and all I shouldn't need to tune in, must have been the headphones.

Who says it's only children who want to be The Doctor :(

That episode almost made me cry, the whole clowns in a box thing didn't really make a lot of sense to me though.

Loved episode 2 in general but it felt like a two parter squashed in to one.

The 'fortune teller' style booth things were probably some sort of political statement but there didn't really seem to be much explanation for them.

Distinct feeling of 7th Doctor style this week though with the Doctor's glass of water thing almost being a channelling of Sylvester and the underlying policical feel.

The Dalek episode is looking like a lot of fun, but the whole "cracks" in the universe thing is looking pretty lame. My guess is it was probably caused by the Doctor after the messing with the fabric of space-time in the "Waters of Mars" episode I think.

It would be okay, but we've already had this kind of omen of scary things throughout the previous seasons with the whole "bad wolf" thing and the "he will knock four times" saga. I'm getting quite bored of it.

Whilst I agree with this in principle, there isn't many other ways of building up the end-of-season baddie, or pushing the over-riding story arc in an obvious way (the show is aiming for a fairly young audience don't forget). The only other way they could do it is to have the man/woman/tentacle creature appear in a few locations where The Doctor is, which would get tedious. The subtle hints to 'the silence' and cracks in the Universe is probably the better option.

The second image on that page upset me, having Amy Pond running around in very little was a particular highlight from last week.

Have you seen the Radio Times covers? They have the daleks in red, blue and yellow. Also have some good pics from the next episode inside.
