Partners in Crime

Very fun episode, Adipose look a little cheesy. And look like Marsh mellows. But they are really interesting and fun. Lingering on the line "The fat that just walks away". And this whole episode is bundles of fun, which suits the Monsters.

The funniest scene is when Doctor Donna completely miss the part where they are both in the office in the same building and in the same place. Both Catherine Tate and David Tennant bringing so much energy into the role, which is always fantastic to see. And this episode starts of the success of the siries. Which in my opinion, is the absolute best season. And Doctor who is top in terms of Hot topics right now, regarding the 60Th anniversary, so why not jump the boat and rank my favourite siries of the show.

The Episodes premise is Donna trying to reach out to find the doctor, "A Mate". She then investigates these weird strange pills. Ounce the pills go out large into the city, a button is pressed. And people start going mad, and start acting very strange. It's a classic 'invasion of Earth' type story. Which Doctor who does to fantastically well at, old and new. Another couple of funny scenes is the mirror scene when Doctor Donna see each other, where they are basically in the same proximity of each other. Also what's great and light hearted is that Wilf completely misses what's going on around him.

Wilf is a delight. He was a great companion in his short run with the Doctor. Who knows though we might even get to see him in "Wild Blue Yonder" or "The Giggle" as it would be great to see him again. Brilliantly portrayed by Bernard Cribbins. And he brings such an electric performance, full of energy and very bouncy. Which is also what makes this siries of Doctor who so great. So all in all a fantastic siries. Now time for my verdict.

Verdict,

8/10 A Fun duo, and a great start to the Best Siries of New who. Which this review marks my #100 th review of this account. Which makes 256 in Total. Just added in for a bit of context about me. Great Episode, full of fun and energy!

I loved this episode, I've seen it several times now and it's really an episode to listen too. It's very well written, a comedic plot line that's also touching and insights character development. I love Catherine tate. This probably isn't for you if you don't like her in any capacity. Luckily for me I like her comedy and I think she's a brilliant actress when she's given the right material. David tennant, always good. Sarah Lancashire, excellent. Bernard Cribins, love him. This series started around the time I started watching it as a kid, this has always been a favourite with its persistent naughties (2000's) nostalgia. Tennant and Tate are By far my favourite doctor/companion duo, there first episode together was hilarious and still is ! As are all this seasons episodes. What I enjoy is that they are JUST friends, for once he isn't in love, she isn't in love, they don't do any of that because there friendship grows instead. I wish they did more. Loved it. 10/10.

This episode is a lot of fun.

This is a bit like 'New Earth' or 'Partner's in Crime' in the sense that the plot is a little thinner than usual as it's being used as a way to reintroduce David Tennant's wonderful version of The Doctor, and establishing Catherine Tate's Donna as an official companion.

I enjoy this episode whenever I see it.

Despite serious misgivings concerning the return of Catherine Tate's Donna Noble to the Tardis, I found myself eating humble pie as this episode gained momentum.

"Partners in Crime" brings a whole new dynamism to the series, demonstrating what fans have always known...that "Doctor Who" is capable of changing every few years. From the pleasingly re-energised starting sequence which harks back to the time-tunnel of earlier Doctors to the climax, every scene in this episode was a delight.

Providing welcome comic relief to the series after the doom-and-gloom of the last few tales, this opening to "Series 4" has fantastic chemistry between Tennant and Tate, another appearance from the television legend that is Bernard Cribbins, and a wonderfully comic turn from Sarah Lancashire.

Tennant reminds me a little of Bruce Campbell, with his energetic, enthusiastic and wide-eyed portrayal of the Time Lord. He's clearly extremely comfortable in the role and I dearly hope he decides to stay around for quite some time, no pun intended.

The effects in "Partners in Crime" are largely first class and the latest alien creation, the Andipose, are the cutest beings yet to appear in the long history of the series.

9 out of 10. I haven't had so much fun watching an episode of "Doctor Who" for quite some time. Marvellous family entertainment.

Doctor who has always been a part of my life. And after a long wait which seems like an eternity Doctor who is back on the BBC. At the start of a new doctor who season you always worry that it might be a disappointment but as usual the Doctir who crew managed to start on a bang and as "that" theme tune comes on the excitement gets bigger.

The openers of the series are usually poor in Doctor who because they tend to focus more on the character development than the storyline of the monsters. But enough said, this was the best opener since Rose and I am pleased the 4th series has gotten off to a good start.

There were many goods in Partners in crime. For me the the best of those goods was Catherine Tate and David Tennant. I found Donna a total pain in the runaway bride but she was absolutely fine in this opener. Her interaction with Tennant was good to watch and her comic timing definitely boosted some of the duller scenes in the episode.

The comedy can sometimes be to childish on Doctor who, but there were some great moments of comedy in this episode, my favourite when Gramps misses the spaceship behind him and the doctor and Donnas near-misses.

The submission of Rose in the series was known long ago since the crew find it hard keeping secrets but no one knew she would be in the first episode!

Now for the bad. As usual the doctor overuses his sonic screwdriver any plot dead-ends and tight spots. The story worked well, but I heyt the sillier plots in Doctor who, I know it needs to appeal to 7 year olds as well as 70 year olds, but I think plots about fat based aliens growing out of peoples bodies would be best suited on one of the more childish Doctor who spin-offs. And whenever Russel T Davies writes a story himself there is always a basic template that he refuses to budge from, which makes the scene with the adipose and miss foster feel too much like the evil company.

Overall this was an episode which has created a great lot of story lines for more episodes and I give it a 7/10.
