Review: Doctor Who: Series 4, Ep 4: The Sontaran Stratagem

YAY MARTHA.

Now that's out of my system, I'll try and be more coherent.

First things first, UNIT = UNIT, not the Unified Intelligence Taskforce. I did like the reference to the fact that he was still technichally a member of their staff though.

No biology bugged me this week! Yay! Sure, there was skience, but it didn't annoy me for a change. That makes me very, very happy.

The reunion scene was nice. I loved the fact that Donna and Martha began picking on the Doctor - to the extent that he wished they were fighting instead. Donna continues being pretty awesome, although she was rather quick to judge the fact that Martha was now working for UNIT. The 'super temp' bit was brilliant, as was the scene where she said she was going home.

Medusa Cascade... hmm, I always under the impression that it = dangerous.

Rattigan, well I was torn between being highly amused by him and just plain annoyed.

I'm getting a little lot fed up with every alien invasion having worldwide repercussions. There's something to be said for understatement.

Still not sure about the remade Sontarans, although I'm glad that they're still as vicious as they always were. That's the main thing, I guess.

Evil!Martha should be fun next week.

Wilf is one of the most adorable things ever. I think it's a first for a grandparent to fall in love with the Doctor? 

Looking forward to seeing how it ties up next week. But, exams to get through first. Darn.
