To clarify, I didn’t actually mind Matt Smith as the Doctor, and I think he did a good job of a very poor script. The plot consisted of monsters that snarled and did nothing, lots of running around, the inevitable countdown to doom – all sorted by the Doctor looking at the aliens in the eye (literally) and saying “I’m the Doctor”, and then watching them run away.
This wasn’t the clever Moffat-led Doctor Who I was expecting.
