DOCTOR WHO, SERIES 1 EPISODE 6: DALEK 13/8/2010 MayDay travels back in time and watched 'Dalek,' hands down one of the best episodes of Nu-Who. But why, she hears you ask! Welll, a simple, uncomplicated story, yet packed with emotional depth, and a Dalek that presents an actual threat! Read for more...
DOCTOR WHO, SERIES 5 EPISODE 12: DID IT END WITH 'THE BIG BANG' OR A WHIMPER? 28/6/2010 So, the end is here, after thirteen weeks of glorious Doctor Who. Was it worth the wait? Were things wrapped up nicely? How did it measure up to previous New-Who finales? MayDay investigates...
DOCTOR WHO, SERIES 5 EPISODE 12-THE PANDORICA OPENS 20/6/2010 So, here we have it, the penultimate episode, and the revelation of what's inside the Pandorica. Was it worth the wait? Of course, we can only measure this episode on the strength of the next one, but MayDay tries her best to review 'The Pandorica Opens'....

DOCTOR WHO SERIES 5 EPISODE 7 'AMY'S CHOICE'-GOOD OR BAD? 16/5/2010 MayDay reviews this little curio, a far different Doctor Who (and Doctor!) than we've been led to expect. This episode only had one goal: to reconcile Amy and Rory, torn asunder by her failed seduction of The Doctor. Did it succeed? Find out when MayDay examines this sweet dream...or was it a beautiful nightmare?
SERIES 5, EPISODE 6-'VAMPIRES OF VENICE'-DOCTOR WHO'S TWILIGHT? 8/5/2010 The end of the world, commonly known as a 'Hung Parliament,' has terrified MayDay for a while. But not enough to stop her watching the latest Who. But vampires? Haven't we had enough of those? MayDay checks out the episode, and examines Series 5 so far...
SERIES 5, EPISODE 5-DOCTOR WHO-'FLESH AND STONE' 2/5/2010 After the events of MayDay, Mayday herself has lost the power of pun, but no matter, she can still muster up a review of the latest Doctor Who. How did it compare to the first-part? Did it resolve things in a satisfactory manner? Were all our questions answered? Did Amy Pond reveal her flesh and stone to us? Find out here!
MAYDAY'S PREDICTIONS FOR 'THE PANDORICA OPENS' 18/6/2010 MayDay's been thinking a lot about what's inside the mysterious Pandorica lately. And watching the trailers obsessively. So she's decided to distill her thoughts in a little essay! See what MayDay thinks is inside the Pandorica...
SERIES 5, EPISODE 4-DOCTOR WHO: 'THE TIME OF ANGELS'-HEAVENLY OR TV HELL? 25/4/2010 After the big disappointment of that Dalek episode, could Moffat bring the series back to quality again? Sure, with the Weeping Angels and River Song, a good episode was almost guaranteed, but did it live up to the promise?
SERIES 5, EPISODE 11-THE LODGER-WORTH A RENT? So, the antepenultimate episode of Series 5, starring james Corden. MayDay hates Gavin and Stacey, and usually James Corden. He was okay in The Lodger, however? But how was the Lodger itself? Comfortable filler before the finale, or absolute trash? Find out what MayDay thinks...

SERIES 5, EPISODE 10-'VINCENT AND THE DOCTOR'-FIRST IMPRESSIONS? 5/6/2010 So, we have our second 'historical character' based episode in this series. It doesn't have much competition; think of Charles Dickens, Agatha Christie, Churchill...all reduced to caricatures. MayDay reviews what is possibly the most beautiful episode in Doctor Who history, that lacks something...
SERIES 5, EPISODE 3-DOCTOR WHO: 'VICTORY OF THE DALEKS' OR DEFEAT OF DOCTOR WHO? 18/4/2010 With last week's Doctor Who being a cracker, could this week's Who keep up the pace? Did it succesfully establish the Daleks after the terrible Dalek days of Russel T. Davies? Find out what MayDay thinks!
