Excellent! We've missed having you around on a regular basis. Smile

4th Amy's Choice 7pts
5th The Pandorica Opens 6pts
6th=The Beast Below 2pts
6th=Time of Angels 2pts

And the other three failed to score a single point between them!

Those are close results at the top. But one of the stories missing altogether from the list is most telling: a Dalek story not even getting a single vote.

I think it's safe to conclude that not even the Daleks are mighty enough to withstand the combined onslaught of a below par Gatiss script and a stylistically challenged Gok Wan makeover in the space of a single episode.

You have an excellent point there, Sid.

Cool.

Is it controversial to like Vampires of Venice? I thought that was a lot of fun. Not that I pay much mind to "episode controversy" anyway... Very Happy

Actually, I have a real soft spot for The Vampires of Venice and think it a very enjoyable, rewatchable story.

Agreed, and it's got some great music as well.

Yes, for some reason I find it the most...Tennanty of all the stories in Series 5.

by Elliott H. Seadevil Wed Dec 29, 2010 4:17 pm

yes it definitely was the most Tennanty episode of all

Belated, I know, but half the fun is in the expression of an opinion.

1. Vincent and the Doctor

2. Amy's Choice

3. A Time of Angels 2pts

Better late than never, Dingdong. Thanks mucho.
