Alth...The music in Nu-Who is absolutely diabolical. Although last week's season opener was quite enjoyable in a kids-TV, fun way, the music was intrusive and overpowering and almost made the show unwatchable. It's like there's a fake orchestra randomly sawing away in a room at full blast, and periodically the program-makers decide to turn up the volume on them.

I was hoping to catch some this evening, but my parents decided not to be in.ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09958839106380353855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17108773.post-24277674638383467422008-04-12T20:11:00.000+01:002008-04-12T20:11:00.000+01:00If you can get hold of it, from friends or the lib...If you can get hold of it, from friends or the library, there is a three-episode DVD from the last series, with "Human Nature" / "The Family of Blood" / "Blink" on it, which is as good as 135 minutes of TV as was broadbast last year. The first two are a two-part story by Paul Cornell, who also wrote the excellent Wisdom mini series for Marvel last year. It (the Doctor Who story) was nominated for a Hugo this year.<BR/><BR/>The second story is "Blink", by Stephen Moffat , who was also nominated for a Hugo this year, and is going for the hat-tirck after winning the last two for Doctor Who episodes.<BR/><BR/>They are all pretty ace - Blink slightly more cerebral and clever-clever (though still having one of the more striking exchanges of the series), while the Human Nature pair has more thrill-powered dotted around the place, and has quite a bit of old-school Who action. Also features a great scene halfway through the second episode, which is then topped in each of the following scenes.<BR/><BR/>I don't actually own a copy myself, so here's my guarantee: if you buy it and don't care for it, then I'll buy it off you for full price. Can't say fairer!Andrew Farrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02694136920496154701noreply@blogger.com
