Firstly: I love April Fools.

Right. Er. Am at home. That is kind of sucky. I am on the family computer. This is more sucky. Megan and her sort-of-what-the-hell-is-going-on ex are in the living room. Megan smells suspiciously like (and I meant this nicely) Corinne, which proves my suspicions that she is a hearty smoker and does not shower very often. Mother is out. In a pub. Father is at work.

In about ten minutes, I'm going to go and curl up under my quilt on my bed and find a book and stay there. However, first I am going to ignore all of this and instead I'm going to get very excited about

Oooh, that was proper good, wasn't it? I watched it in the DRA Nisbet Room, fighting off people who wanted a DVD night. BUGGAR OFF I thought rudely but did not say so. Ahem.

Anyway. The Judoon were Proper Rubbish Aliens and that always makes me happy; they wre convincing in a sort of naff way. Why oh why were they all wearing Nu-Rocks, though? Did they nip down to Camden Market before nicking the hospital? There will be a lot of shoeless goths wandering around...

"I had a brother, once" or something like that; someone WALKED IN ARGH during that line, so I missed it. I do like the Doctor going undercover, though; not as good as Three Inna Dress (or The Green Death as the BBC prefer to call it) but still good.

"Laughing to cover up the darkness," or a variant on that (someone will correct me); oooh, I loved that so much. It sort of says everything about Ten, I think.

Actually, the whole thing was a bit Casualty On The Moon, wasn't it? All stereotypes of the NHS present and correct; consultants are evil and overpaid and cynical; medical students are too trendy and nerdy for their own good; nurses scream at the first sign of danger (none of them made a cup of tea, that's what they always do normally); patients are crap; the NHS is cheap and over-worked. All good to see! Also liked the satire on the police, when Martha got consempation.

Oh, I'm tip-toeing around the issue, aren't I? So, that was Martha. She's a bit good, isn't she? Very much of the awesome! I liked the fact she resorts to logical ways of doing things whilst keeping a little compassion; she checked the instruction manual, she asked questions, she was generally A Bit Awesome. And really, really hot. *fans self* This is going to be such a good series from the perspective of my hormones.

I'm looking forward to next week. HELLO ELIZABETHAN ENGLAND. I don't care how rubbish the episode is, my favourite episodes are always the ones set in the past rather than in a sort of semi-mythical future.

Overall; a good start. And now I am going to get my tea and find some form of name-brand food and curl up with my bookshelf, presuming it hasn't been plundered in my absence. I'm actually afraid to go upstairs; I don't know what they've done, and it worries me a little.
