DW: The Feast of the Drowned

Hey Guys,

i actually get to read the 8th adventure of the New adventure serie – The Feast of the Drowned – with the tenth Doctor and Rose. It place in the present (2007) when Rose is visiting her mum again. For Mickey and Jacky this is taking place after The Stone Rose (NAS#7) which also after the christmas special- The Christmas Invasion and place before School reunion.

There is always another explaination

Is there something like ghost? The brother of on old friend of Rose died. He was working on a ship that sunk and he and all the other crew members drowned with it. After three month the parts of the ship got transfered to London and this is when the ghosts start apearing. But even when they found the ship, they didn’t found anything of the crew. Of course the Doctor and Rose with the help of Mickey start investigating.

The little things

What i really like about this story are the little things. Like the mentioned the time Rose was away. Her friends that believed the first and how everyone gave Mickey the fault for her absence. I think that Rose never really thought about what her friends or Mickey had been through. She just always forget about this time, because it is just the best thing in her life. She lost kinda contact to her life when she starts traveling with the Doctor.

Reading or nor

The story is solid but not superb. I read better and way worth. What makes the story so good is Rose life. This story shows us what Rose did to the people around her and how she forget about it. We see a Rose that we would say should grow up but on the other hand we see a grown up Rose. A Rose that would sacrifice herself to save people. A Rose that will never give up. We see what the travels did to the persons near to her but we also see what the travels did to her and that is why the story is a yes to reading this book.

The Tenth Doctor Adventures: Death and the Queen

Hey Guys,

here we go with my favorite adventure in this Volume of the Tenth Doctor Adventures – Death and the Queen. Of course it is again the tenth Doctor and Donna Noble and plays in Goritania. It is not clear in what time it plays.

Donna and the man

Donna is such a strong character but she always tried to define herself above a man. So he got often used by them. Like Lance did in the christmas special. Here Donna is meeting a prince that fall in love with her and want to marry her.
All Donna always wished for. But the life is not what she wants. She has armee, glamour and will be a queen. But everything is just to much for her. A fairytale that for Donna is more than a nightmare but she never let any of that show to the Doctor.

Goodbyes

So Donna is struggling with her fairytale life and the Doctor with getting to get left again. First Rose and than Martha. Donna was the one he believed would stay with him. Because he didn’t fall in love with her and she didn’t fall for him. They are just best friends traveling together. So the Doctor hoped that she would stay. This Doctor is such an emotional person that can’t deal with loneliness.

Why i love them

Both are dealing with their typical problems in such a way that is so them. But the best thing is the way the Donna always saves the Doctor and everyone around her. She doesn’t believe in herself. She needs to define herself above man but in the end she is stronger than everyone. She is ready to protect her kingdom at all cost. Not much persons care so much for people and are ready to sacrifice so much for people she just shortly know.
For a person that define herself about man, she isn’t getting any shit for them. She does what he things is right and is always showing them into their border. She can fight that war on her own and would win.

Hopefully we will get a Volume 2 of The Tenth Doctor Adventures.

The Tenth Doctor Adventures: Time Reaver

Hey Guys,

here we go with the second adventure of the Tenth Doctor Adventures Vol 1 – Time Reaver. Of course this is the tenth Doctor and Donna who go and have another adventure. This adventure takes part in Calibris which is a space port. It is playing before the ‘Silence in the Library’. In the end of the story he tells her that her next stop should be the library.

What is going on?

A girl get lost and falls in the end of very bad aliens. It goes about a weapon that make a few seconds so much longer. It is like two seconds are two hours for the person. The girl is not the only victim of them. It is a terrible weapon and everyone seemed to want that weapon.
But also is this story like the story before. It is not what it seems. In the end there is something totally different go on with that weapon.

Relationship

Donna have a new way to shine in this story. I love Donna always the most when she shows us how she take care about the people around her. She is loud and direct but she really cares so much about everyone. Here we see her take care about the girl that got abducted. She doesn’t judge Cora for the stupid thing that she does. She understand her, what she wanted to archieve.

Spoilers – what weapon can do

This story is about two sides of the same coin. It is about what good can something do and what at the same time to more harm than good. A weapon that make out of seconds hours. The worst feeling when you are in pain but what happend if when you are happy – you are longer happy. Isn’t that a good thing when you know your time is counted? Is it worth the risk of some one using it for evil? The story reminds me of of the book we read in german lesson – the physicist.

I loved the first episode more but it is still a really good story. So listen to it. I try to write about the next and last adventure as soon as possible. It is my favorite story of the box.

The Tenth Doctor Adventures: Technophobia

Hey Guys,

here i go with the first adventure of Big Finsih ‘The Tenth Doctor Adventures’ – Technophobia. It is not just the tenth Doctor but this adventures are the best team back together again. Donna and the tenth Doctor are just amazing together. Out of the three companions of the tenth Doctor is Martha my favorite but she never have that amazing chemestry like Donna and the Doctor had. So i am really happy to get more action of the both of them. But i wouldn’t say no to more adventures of Martha?!

Special Edition

I decided to buy the special edition of the volume one of ‘The Tenth Doctor Adventures’. The packaging is amazing. It has the size of a DVD box. The box is made out of a stable carton. The DVD shell itself is like a book. Actually it is a book.

Inside you find five DVD’s. Three of this DVD’s are the stories of the Box: Technophobia, Time Reaver and Death and the Queen. The other two are bonus material: The Tenth Doctor Adventures Documentary and a documentary about the Audio Adventures of Doctor Who. I don’t have listen to any of them yet, but i will and i will also let you know my thoughts about it.
But this is not all that is in that book. We also have forwords from Dan Starkey and Terry Molloy. Also thoughts about the three adventures and Director’s Notes from Nicholas Briggs and at last the Prodcuer’s Notes from David Richardson. The other pages are filled with pictures from the crew.

So i thing this limited Edition is worth his price. I really like it and i wish other boxes whould follow this example.

Meeting dream team again

The best about these two is that the were never romantically involved with each other. The are best friends traveling around and getting into mess. Of course this time is not different. They just want to visit a technology museum. The Story doesn’t play far in the future for Donna. It is set on Earth in 2011.
It doesn’t take long and Donna already made new friends. It is so much fun to listen to Donna acting. Donna is getting here the most action the Doctor is just figuring stuff out. The characters has a great chemestry and i Donna and Bex – she works in the museum. They bound with each other over their jobs as a temp – which is most likely. After i start working in the backery and sell stuff, i always bickering with other Sellers when i buy stuff.

Our greatest enemie

Something seems to go on in that museum and the robots and computers. What this story does it. It does take a really common story the robots and computer are turning against humans. But the have a new twist in it that the technology is totally fine and working the way they should. We depent so much on the technology these days and what happend when they turn against us. This time it is the humans the problem. Everyone get really frightend about technology. For someone who don’t know technology it must seems very frigthend.
I really like the story. It is fun and get me in a good mood to listen to it. Just like most of the episodes did when the don’t left me heartbroken.

So i have really high expections of the other two stories. Which will of course follow over the next to weeks.

DW: The Stone Rose

Hey Guys,
now that i sadly had read every book of the ‘New Serie Adventure‘ with the ninth Doctor, i started the Stone Rose the first book of the serie with the tenth Doctor. The Story takes place in the 120’s the ancient Rome. Rose and the Doctor are travling there because Mickey found in 2007 a statue looking like Rose. This first part the big family trip to the national museum is really funny. But watch holds the rest of the book for us.

Who is it?

I don’t know how it was when the book was publiced. But i think it was like now with the twelfth Doctor. That the author had to writte about the new Doctor without really nowing him. The get a little information and had to work with it. I hope that it is that way. Because i don’t find the tenth Doctor in that book. There are little things like the Doctor trying to adjust to the time he visit. I don’t think i can recall any Doctor that would’ve done that. The Tenth Doctor visit greek in his coat and chucks… he never change, the tenth Doctor is an extremly emotinal Doctor. Here i doesn’t see this in him. The tenth Doctor is the Doctor that is part of the family. He is staying for dinner with Rose and her Mam. He is building a conaction to Mickey. He is not the one anymore that goes out searching the adventure on his own.

Fortuna

We have Rose as goddess Fortuna, a missing person, a slave that seems to see the future or not, a artist that makes skupltures with out even working on it. We all know how is most suspecious to be the suspect in this missing case. In the end we have alot of stuff going on and the whole story becomes a big paradox. Too much for my liking but the book did something i really like. The Doctor got a lot of time to have an adventure on his on and Rose have hers too. That is not oven the case. Also i apprechiat the way Rose is portrayed from the Doctor. She is a lot like the describe Fortuna. This is Rose. She is not the perfect girl. She can be for a few people like goddess or just an ordinary girl, she can be nice and cruel. She left Mickey… i really like Rose, but to often people forget that she was cruel to Mickey. That she broke his heart and than always gave him hope for more. We should remember her good sides and her bad sides, and she had like every human being alot of flaws.

SJA: The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith

Hey Guys,
let’s talk about the next episode of Sarah-Jane Adventures. The best thing about the episode is definitily David Tennant.

Sarah-Janes secrets

Luke and his friends are trying to found out what Sarah-Jane hidding from them. It is a boyfriend. It is really sweet to see her in a relationship. It is also sweet how she and Luke talk about them. Luke is not sure what to make out of it. He is happy for his mom, but he is afraid of him not liking him or not be liked by him. Clyde and Rani really interessting in meeting him.
But it turns out that Luke and he getting along good. But Clyde can’t let it go. Something is telling him that something isn’t right and beginns to investigate. That is something that Luke don’t take like.

crashing the wedding

Of course the Doctor comes when they should speak or be silent for ever. He is crashing the party. It is nice to see him interact with the kids. It would be fun to see him travel with Luke and Clyde. I always wanted to see them in the TARDIS. This relationship between Sarah-Jane and the Doctor is so important, because it is not about love. But the trust them have for each other is amazing. I love Sarah-Jane with every Doctor.

DW: 50th anniversary special

Hey Guys,
i rewatched the 50th anniversary special. When i watched it for the first time i kinda liked it. It was one of the better episodes but i never say it as an anniversary special…there was nothing really special… it could have been any episode… but know many thing i dislike now…

Three Doctors

I love to see David Tennant again as the Doctor. He is my favorite Doctor and always was. John Hurt is an amazing Doctor and i would have loved to see more of him. But this is just a celebration of the last years… not of all 50th years…This special shows me why i love David and why i dislike Matts Doctor so much… the Doctor forgets… i just forgets how many people he had killed. He don’t have to live with that fault like the tenth Doctor did. But how could he forget…moving on is a good thing, but forgetting not.

Bad Wolf

I am really happy that they didn’t bring Rose back, but Billie Piper. She is amazing and i love her as the Bad Wolf trying to stop the Doctor. I love how she interact and is looking at him. It is like in a way she is Rose but not the real Rose. Bring the real Rose back would have distroyed everything.

Two storys

It is for one the story of the Doctor making the decision to sacrifice Gallifrey and the story of the invasion of the Zygons. The Zygon story is not the best, but it have their moments and totally works for what it should do. But the Gallifrey story is now really bussering me. I don’t have a problem with bringing Gallifrey back. I love to see other timelords again. Of seeing Romana again. Time Lords are the best enemies ever. My problem is not even that they take that decision the ninth and the tenth Doctor have to live with from them. But watching this season before the special, makes me hate it. Because the whole season with Clara is a big friendly buttom. Nothing the Doctor does have consequenzes. He can save them, save all of them. no consequenzes. Never…

Clara and the other things…

I hate what Clara tells the eleventh Doctor. The warrior, the hero and the Doctor. That is stupid everyone of them is the Doctor. The tenth Doctor wasn’t a hero. He never was and if anyone thing about him like that, i think that they miss understood him. He was a god… a lonely god. Which makes decisions about life and death, he was someone, who thought of himself as a god, which can is own rules. He wasn’t a hero.
Also not everyone can be a hero… this is stupid a hero.. isn’t an easy think.
Also i hate the picture they are drawing of the Doctor. He always finds another way, he always saves everyone… that is not true. The first Doctor doesn’t even care about what happend to Ian and Barbara… He just thought about himself. How often did the Doctor destroyed the Daleks or did murder a race? He did it. This sacrificing Gallifrey is something the Doctor would do, can do, and did do. It is only logic for him. Everyone that thinks the Doctor could never do say a decision should watch Doctor Who again. Pompeji is only one example and when you now tell me this is something just RT Davis did, than i can only tell you watch the classic. He always did this thing.

DW: Beautiful Chaos

Sooo~
this book is also from the ‘New Series Adventure‘ and featured not the ninth doctor. This book is featuring the tenth Doctor (which is with two and one some of my favorite Doctors) and Donna Noble. I love them both and i love their dynamic. I am a big fan of the families of the companions. I loved Jackie Tyler so much and Donnas family is a little different. Yes i like Wilf but her mother is not really sympatic. But thats why i really like Donnas family and the stories with them. Their characters have a real depth and the book don’t disappoint as in that point. The characters are really well written. One of the interesting thing are the inside of the character of Donnas mother. This side we didn’t see very often in the serie. So from the characters it is really worth to read it.

The story plays with the knowledge of the character ark of Donna. So how don’t know who the story of Donna ends, should read the book and don’t read more of this entry.

The Prolog just starts with what we know. Donna didn’t know anything and Wilf is looking in the stars for a sign of the Doctor. Than the main story starts. But just the start creates a very emotional story and the end just hangs above our heads the whole time. So lets talk about the main story. To be honest it is a good story but not the best one. For me there are to many loose ends and just the story wouldn’t be really satisfying. Maybe it is also because it reminds me a little of the Sontoran Story – Poison Sky. But with the characters and all the emotions and so one i can overlook every loose end.

I really enjoyed reading it. One of the best Doctor Who book i read.

Good Night
