New Doctor Who Discussion

[almh]

You should be fine. Personally I would watch the first series of the 11th Doctor first, then the current one, purely because then you know the back story behind the companions, but you should be fine without watching it.

I'm the first one to admit that I have spent the last 5 weeks moaning about Doctor Who. I have had major issues with the plots so far, and if I'm honest the less time I have to watch Amy Pond, the better in my opinion (she gets on my nerves). But, I have to say that there is one thing that Steven Moffat has managed to pull off. River Song. I may have hated her at first, and every episode since her first, thinking that she is a stupid plot device which would turn out to be predictable, but Moffat's mind works in mysterious ways, and on this occasion I love him... well, maybe that's too strong. But I certainly don't hate him quite as much as I did before. There are still a load of things to be sorted out, but considering how bad I thought this episode would be, I'm impressed at the ending. (Sorry for the gushingness of that ramble... If that makes any sense.)
