If you are interested, Digital spy has this feature about the Doctor Who theme.

This is probably old news to Classic Who fans- but the Horror channel is still continuing to show reruns of old 70s Who - mostly Pertwee and Tom Baker; with the odd black and white Troughton one thrown in there - as well as some 1980s Davison, Colin Baker and McCoy stuff.It was the Douglas Adams "City of Death" last couple of nights. The John Cleese and Eleanor Bron cameo in that shows that neither JNT or RTD (what is with Dr Who producers and three-barrelled names with T in them?) didn't invent dubious celebrity casting !
But it's still a good story and Julian Glover is top class as the villain.
The "pulling his own face off" to reveal the google-eyed cyclops monster head underneath is a cliffhanger I can still remember seeing for the first time on its original showing - and there's not too many of those from that period that still stick in my memory. (The Davros reveal in Destiny of the Daleks is one of the few others.)
Got to admire the late Douglas Adams for his environmental recycling credentials - he later reused bits of this story and his own untransmitted/abandoned "Shada" story mashed up to create plot points for the first Dirk Gently novel.
(and on balance probably improved upon Shada looking at the footage surviving from it : a lot of the comic dialogue with the Professor etc is wonderful but it's more Hitch-Hiker than Who imho)

Re Saturdays episode on the moon.
If the 'spiders' were actually bacteria, where did the cobwebs come from

Sad to say but Peter Capaldi is wrong for the role. He is a superb actor but simply doesn't do it for me. He cannot decide whether to be a lot darker or play it for laughs. And whilst she is achingly gorgeous there is too much about Clara and her very PC boyfriend. Haven't even bothered to SKY+ tomorrow's episode and deleted last 3 weeks before they ended.

'Kill The Moon' was filled with terrible Sci-Fi writing.
World, turn your lights off
A 1.8 billion tonne growth, not over time, instantly.
An equal sized egg laid by something that was hatched from an original egg moments before
A Mexican space program
It still bugs me as one of the worst scripts I've seen turned into an aired Sci-Fi. If it wasn't Doctor Who it would have been ripped up. And that's not mentioning the dialogue, which was more like a US live-audience show. Statement upon statement instead of character interactions.

Totally agree with this and mirrors much of what I said in a recent post. Too much Clara, not enough Doctor. Another fault with recent Doctor Who is the producers' desire to explain the Doctors actions and make him human. He's supposed to be a mysterious alien ffs!
They just about got it right with Ecclestone but ever since have seemed hellbent on ruining it one way or another.
