Well... aren't they colourful?!

Firstly I'd once again like to thank all of you that have taken the time to vote in our poll. Please encourage as many people as possible to take part - the results are very interesting.

It's always good to receive your feedback & I've been delighted at how well many of the features that appear in CT are going down so well. We're aiming to build on this over the coming months, and hope you continue to enjoy them!

Here's the early feedback folks!

Mark Carroll: Hmm. A lively episode but the space going Spitfires were ridiculous to the extent of going beyond the suspension of disbelief required when watching Sci Fi. The Dalek redesign doesn't work for me and looks very much like a cynical merchandising exercise! New shape and loads of new colours - Character must be rubbing their hands with glee!

So Victory of the Daleks got 6.45 million which, as second placed show on TV yesterday is a superb result even if the actual numbers are down. I have always felt that being shown in the spring means that Doctor Who is going to produce mis-leading overnight figures. The final consolidated results for The Eleventh Hour - at over 10 million, would seem to confirm that.

Amy Pond, in front of all those personnel and staff, addressed the Prime Minister (and not just any PM) as 'Oi Churchill'

Have you seen the clips on the BBC website? If not, it's worth a look. Nick Briggs is doing the voices again and he is clearly emulating The Power of the Daleks and the 'I am Your Soldier' bit. It looks good.

Just one more piece of feedback on episode, courtesy of CT regular Gary Merchant.

"The Beast Below showed us early on how the dynamic between the Doctor and Amy is developing, and how Matt Smith's Doctor is shaping up. Gone is the post-impressionism of Tennant, and the figure now presented seems more contained in his emotions, but still has the cheeriness of his predecessor.

Today's interest in Doctor Who is within the online publication of "The Changing Face of Doctor Who" at the BBC archive site.

The DWAS were contacted for their view of the archive by The Press Association Online. This involved a video interview to be used by Virgin Online, The Mirror and others.

When we have a link to the sites it is used it will be posted here.

I am pleased to see that our episode polls are starting to produce interesting results.

You can see from the results so far that 'The Eleventh Hour' was generally received better than 'The Beast Below'.

As I write this we can already see that whilst 28% of voters would describe 'The Eleventh Hour' as an instant classic, only 6% felt the same way about 'The Beast Below'.
