Nice. I liked this episode, the next episode looks good as well. Just a bit... Eh... Tacked on? The Weeping angels are meant to be scary and be in dark places with flickering lights, not in caves? wacko.gif

could be the origins of the angels, where better then caves where its always dark

yea looks like it should of been a two part storie! was ok, sort of. Does anyone know how many esp they are having in this season? is the normal 13?

Yeah I was thinking that too. I think it's 13.

Are they going to reference that "crack" in every episode?!

Curious how the Doctor said to Amy, that she should of known who the Daleks are. But she didn't... Meaning from episodes like "Army of Ghosts" and "Stolen Earth" when they invaded earth?

I agree with the episode being rushed... and the fact is that Amy seems quite capable of saving the world without the doctor holding her back... do i smell potential spin off CBBC series... :whistle:

what with her skirts, I highly doubt it!

OH GOD NO! She'll be running around with little children with a freaking lipstick against a poorly animated 3D monster. HELL NO!

I felt the episode was too rushed. Remember Ecclestone's reaction when he first met the Daleks again? Or Tennants's expression of hate? Smith missed his opportunity to to really shine as an actor, which was a shame. Not really dumbing-down, but surely a sign that the new Who is aiming for a younger audience, and won't be as dark or thought provoking as some of us had hoped.

And I'm sorry, primary-coloured Daleks just aren't scary or menacing anymore. I was looking forward to the Weeping Angels episode, but after this I fear the worst.

I'm watching the premiere of the new doctor (a newer one that the picture from the 1st post). It is airing now on the Space Channel in Canada.

I watched the premiere on BBC America last night. I was very pleased with the episode. Matt Smith did an excellent job. He has the Doctor style (I'm not sure how to describe it but I know it when I see it). The episode was very well written.

I'm intrigued by the crack and want to know more.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
    • I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
