P.S. We know the picture which gives away a large part of the show which is being spoiled is in within distance of this notice, and to set it right would mean some extra work. Owing to the fact we are lazy, it will continue to be wrong. Suffer mortals!

It’s been a lively time over the past few days, of course one of the most important things on the calender has been the second of the climatic three parter of Doctor Who.

We have seen the doctor lose sight of Earth, Rose come back, all the old companions join together and the Doctor actually get shot by the Daleks at long last and with everything practically down the toilet thanks to the return of Dave, sorry, Davros from god knows where, saved by the first pepper pot creature to laugh and behave, well, like me.

What is going to happen? The very last shot we have is that he is regenerating which means someone else playing the character. Which is kind of at odds considering the fact that David Tenant has signed up for specials and a possible series 5, which means there is going to a almighty twist and a half in the next episode.

And yet, there is a great feeling that because it’s Russell T Davies, it’s going to be as crap as last year’s ending where magically everyone shouted out the Doctor’s name to win the day over the Master, who frankly let’s face it, had won completely.

Let’s be honest, the episode before the last of Season 3 was superb, with the audience getting a real sense of defeat, what could actually be done in the face of such a deadly enemy? Our heroes basically had their testicles removed with a spoon and not even major surgery would have reattached them. And then everyone on earth chanted a name and then all was better in about 10 seconds.

Such a cop-out and perhaps it does show that the train ran out of steam, and all the writer wanted was a sit-down and a cup of tea. Shame, because Doctor Who has been one of the better shows brought back onto our screens in a number of years, with of course the first season being so well constructed and dramatic, it would set the standard for the rest to follow.

For this time round, with a similar set of circumstances facing our heroes, indeed old and new (Sorry, but when I see Billy Piper, I see her in naughtiness only. Thank you ITV! Bless you!) I know, let’s do something which makes no real sense. The Doctor’s going to win over Dave and his condiments via the gift of dance and a selection of custard pies. Or maybe Billie uses her woman assets to bleed the Daleks of money and all their stuff is taken away by bailiffs.

And that’s the challenge and in some ways, the expectation for next week; it’s somehow going to go south. The people in the know will have seen the episode and therefore will have an idea of how’s it going to play out. Whether or not it actually is good will remain a mystery until next Saturday at 6:40pm. Please, please make it a good one to finish off the season.
