The Hungry Earth - Spoilers
Oh dear, what a waste of 45 minutes!
Predictable plot (shades of 'Inferno'), cardboard cutout characters and just no TENSION whatsoever! It felt like I was watching 'Who By Numbers'.
Also another story where the Doctor has severely underestimated his foe...a plot device which is incredibly tired now, surely?
It's been a good run since the abysmal 'Water of Mars' so I shouldn't be to disappointed at this dismal episode...we need the poor ones to make the good ones look that so much better!
Look forward to hearing your comments!

Ian Bisset, Correspondent
Tara and IanIan Bisset was born and raised in Lower Hutt, New Zealand and until 1988 was a Doctor Who watcher rater than a fan, it took the acting prowess of Colin Baker to start the young man off in his journey to becoming a Doctor Who fan!
By 1991, Ian was established in the Wellington Chapter of the New Zealand Doctor Who Fan Club and attended his first Doctor Who convention (it was one day with no guests an it was held in a school hall). By 1992, Ian was instrumental in organizing DoctorCon 2,
Yet another guest-less convention, but one that got the attention of the New Zealand media due to a typo.
