mrphWell, that was dark...
Between them, Catherine Tate, Bernard Cribbins and Joseph Long really made their scenes work. Billie Piper... well, she improved a bit as it went on, but her acting in the first few Rose scenes just seemed... clumsy, I guess. Maybe it's just me.
Poor Donna. Her future's not looking so bright, is it? But, oddly, I do actually trust RTD to write a halfway decent exit for her.
Not too impressed by the visuals for the beetle. Was expecting something a little more alien and/or creepier.
I didn't actually miss the Doctor much, which probably proved it worked.
Too Much Wolf, btw.
As for the stars going out... I'm not going to immediately ridicule the physics/timings. I'll save my ridicule for the episode when they revisit it, just in case they do have an explanation... :)
