And so there was. Missed the first fricking 20 minutes because of it. So what happened to Ricky, and how did they avoid being deleted?

Yes, quite ...... more convenient plot devices than, well, an advanced plot devices convention ..... or something.

A slight improvement on last week but still a pile of poorly written tosh.

Good God.

Last Week:

Rose: "Oh no! Surrounded by Cybermen who are determined to kill us, and with no weapons capable of fighting them, we will surely die!"

This Week:

Doctor: "Wait! I have an idea!"
*ZAP!*
Rose: "Hurrah! The Doctor has killed them all instantly with his magical gem of electric death!"

Tosh? You're kidding right? That was classic Doctor Who in it's purest form

*Stu. The Doctor blasted the ones in front of them with the energy crystal from the Tardis.

Oh, a Ciderman grabbed Ricky by the leg while he was trying to climb over a fence to escape the Ciders.

They avoided being deleted by the Doc just happening to have the power cell device-thingy from the TARDIS. He pointed it at the Cides and those in the immediate vicinity were 'deleted'.

Pfft, cocks to that.

I enjoyed it...

Excellent stuff. Nice dialogue nod to The Five Doctors and Mickey using the idea that if your hammer is too small then use a bigger hammer.

Loved it. Much better than the previous episode.

Loads of really fantastic ideas, most of which were astonishingly badly implemented.

The moment where the lone Cyberman realised what she had become was really touching. The moment where the whole lot of them realised what they had all become was pitched somewhere between camp comedy and intellectual insult.

Next week looks better though.

'Classic' in the sense that most of old Who is similarly cack, yes.

Classic in the sense of damn fine stories like Genesis of the Daleks, Talons of Weng Chiang, Pyramids of Mars and Robots of Death ........ nope, not a patch on them.

Once again, a so-so adventure, but redeemed by some of teh character work in the last 5 minutes.

Still only a 6/10 I'm afraid.
