The third season of ‘new’ Doctor Who continued at a fine pace with ‘The Shakespeare Code’. Martha proved an able companion and perfect foil amidst jokes, puns, random quotes and witchcraft. I’m not absolutely convinced about the plot, but you know… I don’t care. It just seemed to work. With fun and frolics, thesps and threats, Doctor Who delivered another slice of teatime adventure suitable for all the family. And while I would have loved a continuity nod to the assistance the Doctor would provide to the bard in actually finished ‘Hamlet’ (mentioned in ‘City of Death’, I believe) – you can’t fault ’em for not trying to confuse matters for newer audiences.

As much as I’d like to imagine Renegade Timelord might attract a few readers and get a little comment conversation going as a result, it seems only the spammers have anything to say at the moment. Therefore, with regret, I have started switching off commenting on posts.

My Prediction For The Season Finale
I’m just so desperate for this to happen…
You know it makes sense. I can’t, for one, believe we can go on any longer with only a single Timelord. That’s no fun at all…
