Okay, I shamelessly admit to skipping the entire S4 finale and I doubt I'll change my mind on that point, but this preview has me all pumped for S5, despite* the occasional romantic clichés we've seen in every season so far, such as Companion Unexpectedly Kisses the Doctor.
So do we have an actual date for the beginning of S5, or just this vague promise of "Spring"?
Note to self: Need Matt Smith icon.

* Oh, all right, maybe BECAUSE of that part. What can I say, I'm an Old Skool Whofan, I still haven't got over the novelty of it.

Date: 2010-01-02 12:02 am (UTC)As for Five and his shameful love affair with guns, it's worse than that, I'm afraid. In "Resurrection of the Daleks" he used a pistol to shoot a Dalek in its green squishy face until it was very, very dead. Then he handed the gun back to the soldier like it was a two-week-old dead lark* and walked away.
He also nearly fired a laser pistol at the Cybermen in "Earthshock" (the only thing that prevented him was the door coming down), and threatened to kill Davros with a gun as well. Of course he didn't actually follow through on his threat, and made lots of Regretful Faces afterward, which is probably why nobody remembers it. But still.
