The Doctors Daughter. Rant.

I love Doctor Who.  I've watched it since I was a little kids starting way back in the JohnPertwee era.
In general I do not like television.  I will go for months without switching the thing on..  I don't mind the occassional movie and sometimes a tv series will grip me for a short while with the notable exception of Farscape that I adored from start to finish.  I can handle episodes of 'House' in small doses but thats about it.

Doctor Who is different.  It's the one series I will watch almost without question perhaps because it has always been a part of my life but also because this revival has been so totally awesome and encompases the some of the best 50 minute episodes of any series I've ever seen.  ('Blink', for example and the two parter that concludes with 'The Doctor Dances'.)

And i guess thats why when they do birth a clanger it really REALLY pisses me off.

And for me 'The Doctors daughter' was a clanger in so many ways.

I'll try to summerise the worst bits here.  Under a cut of course due to spoilerage.
