All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

Obviously not a Whovian. I watched it, another interesting episode from the minds of the BBC AND there's more to the celebration for those interested.

Interesting episode, but kinda a let down; given the lead up into it. It seemed like just another episode, except they had one more doctor in it than they've had before. Kinda cool, however, to see the "forgotten doctor".
Well, they featured the (about to be replaced) current Doctor, the previous one, and (for the first time) the "original" Doctor. Story line was a touch convulted, but that was to be expected. Cameos from all of the previous Doctors (obviously using substitute actors for those who had passed away), most of which were of the blink-and-you'll-miss-it variety.Originally Posted by KC2UGV
From the standpoint of the overall continuity, such as it is, they've undone the original Doctor being a mass murderer, and opened the door to, possibly, one day bringing back his home planet, or at least some members thereof.
Nice cameo by Tom Baker (4th Doctor, I believe, and arguably the most popular one) at the end, too.
Have I seen better episodes? Yup. Was it over-hyped? Yup. Still, it wasn't bad. And LMFD will enjoy it; we taped it for her, she was at a National Catholic Youth Conference this weekend, should be home within the hour.

I liked it, will watch it again. BBCA is doing a marathon of the top episodes voted by fans.
This is a great way to catch up. And I liked Tom Baker the best as well.

Anyone watch Atlantis?
A bit cheesy.
I've enjoyed island life for 17 years. That's 13 years more than the Confederacy was around.

I watched part of it, it was not too bad.
Cheesy is part of the BBC thang, AFAIC.
I've seen an episode of Torchwood, quite good.
