So a full appreciation of the much vaunted snappy dialogue, and the much criticised incidental music, will have to wait until after bedtimes. Ditto the wheelie bin scene, for which we switched over to Ant & Dec on the grounds that it had the potential to be genuinely, traumatically terrifying. For the first 5 minutes it did seem that it would all be too scary for her, but we focussed on the fact that Dr Who would turn up and make everything OK - I think that this has transformed Christopher Eccleston into a combination of Superman, Father Christmas, and Jesus in her mind, but I have no problem with that.
But from my POV, it did overcome the twin pitfalls of a tacky use of a token Routemaster bus in the opening minute, and the fact that the new TARDIS interior is the spit of the Teletubbies' Home Hill. Saving the world in 45 minutes ever week could become very samey, but I have faith in the team's ability to ring the changes. Frankly it rocked - want next week! want it now!
