This will be tricky as I loved this series so much! I think it is one of the more consistent runs. Here goes anyway, ranking every episode from series 3 of Doctor Who.
Not terrible, just not that memorable. I actually only watched it a couple of weeks ago and I don't remember much already. A sun, a spaceship, some quiz questions...
Some good moments, the Doctor and Lazarus debating the pros and massive cons of a long life for starters. CGI gets a rough ride in this, but I give it the benefit of the doubt on that front. Bonus points for a Mother/Doctor slap though.
I mentioned before, to think of new things for the Daleks to do must be hard. I enjoyed the idea of the Cult of Skaro, experimenting away to try and keep the Daleks alive. Seeing a Dalek think about what they are is always great as well.
A funny, quite light hearted episode with a hint of darkness. Always fun to see the Doctor and his friends meet famous people though.
Tallulah is a legend! There were some great frights. I loved the end. The Daleks, but slightly more fun.
This was a slow burner, but the burn at the end was worth every last drop of the slow burning before it! Anyway, a slow burn every now and then is never a bad thing. Doctor Who doesn't get much chance to do this in the format it is in now. It doesn't have 16 or so hour long episodes like a Better Call Saul for example. Some great moments with Yana slowly working out who he was, the big reveal, the Doctor losing his shit, the watch, it's the same fucking watch, it's the Master!! Arrgghhhh!!
This wasn't for everyone I know, but I loved it. John Simm was great, Freema was amazing, it was great to see Martha save the day, and I love seeing the Earth in a whole heap of shit.
Doctor Who very rarely drops the ball with its opening episodes, and this one was no exception. It could of been a struggle replacing Billie Piper but Freema Agyeman steps up to the plate in this fun episode. A hospital on the moon with Rhino like aliens hunting down a fugitive. Come on, it can only happen in Doctor Who!
Cinema!! The Doctor, Martha and Jack on the run, the President being killed, the Earth being attacked by future versions of the human race, the Master being completely insane, gotta love it.
One of the great scenes. The TARDIS on the motorway. A fast paced romp, introduces us to an iconic companion. All good fun!!
Underrated!! This episode is so good. A great guest cast, and it looks amazing to this day.
Loved this two parter. So good. Nice to see a different version of the Doctor, and it is exciting to watch him almost become the villain of the piece.
Let me think!! Iconic writer, iconic Doctor, iconic monsters and a very iconic episode. Need I say more?
Such a great episode capped off with a heart-breaking ending. The Family are great villains, David Tennant puts in a fantastic performance, and another with a great gust cast, what's not to love?
