I've got to agree, that was a very disappointing ending to the series. It was a really slow flat episode, no excitement at all really. Just didn't work for me.

All it seemed to do was setup the next series, which is a waste of my license fee.

I thought the setup of it killed it. having it told in a kind of flashback way with the Doctor telling the story was a bad decision imo.

I loved David Tennant as the Doctor and was wary of Matt Smith, but I have warmed to him - however I do think he has been let down by the scripts - I think particularly this series the stories have not been up to the standards set during David Tennants time.

And as for Torchwood - I always thought that was great but stopped watching the last series half way through - what a load of old **** - I started calling it Torture-wood cos every episode was painful to get through

I thought Torchwood was OK...it annoyed me though, if it's a science fiction show then it needed to be really full of science fiction, but they portrayed the whole thing as a "real" drama which made it just horrific when something science fiction would happen....it needed to be one or the other, the mix didn't work for me.
