I haven't watched the reaction yet, but judging by your caption you clearly really enjoyed this one! I'm glad because whilst this story is generally considered pretty good; It's also recieved a fair amount of criticism in recent years. I do find it interesting that you thought this episode was great, but was fairly indifferent to the last one, which is considered a genuine classic by most people. It even won a Hugo award, which is one of the most prestigious Sci-fi awards in the world!

It won an award really?! Wow, I just didn't see the depth that everyone thought was in The Girl in the Fireplace

I'm glad you enjoyed this story, and was very impressed by your analysis. The Cybermen are regarded as on a par with the Daleks as one of the great vilians/adversaries of Classic Who. They first appeared back in 1966, and were very much a commentary on the over reliance of technology and where that may lead us as a species. They replaced all bodily parts with mechanical/cybernetic components, and stripped themselves of all emotions in order to "improve" humanity, and dedicated themselves to converting sveryone they found. This is the sort of thing Doctor Who does really well, and always has for over 55 years, commenting on the human condition, our relationship with technology and different cultures and societies. Your comment about David Tennant seeming to fit the role of the Doctor, more so than Eccleston, is also perceptive. Tennant was a fan of the show growing up, and so has much of the history of the role ingrained into him. Eccleston didn't have that background, but to be fair, most actors playing the Doctor have tended to have a bit of a lackluster first season, and take a while to really get into tge swing ofbit. Eccleston didn't have that chance, abd didn't have time to develop his Doctor. I feel if he had, he would have made a much greater impression. I still really liked Eccleston's portrayal, though, and really appreciate how he brought the Doctor into tge modern era.

Oh yeah I definitely still appreciate Eccelston’s performance and for introducing me to Who, but Tennant does seem a little more of a natural fit. He makes it look effortless.
