Dr Who filmed in Sheffield

Recommended Posts

It is terrible in almost every way.

 

For a couple of years it got good, but the most recent series have been atrocious.

 

The 10 to 14 year-olds (both boys and girls) in my extended family enjoy it but hope it improves.

 

The BBC makes a fortune selling around the world.

I’m flattered.

 

He’s a Time Lord, he could pick anywhere in the universe, at anytime ever . . . and he chose Sheffield in the 1960s

 

He usually picks a quarry near Bristol for some reason.oh yes its near the studio.

It stopped being good when Matt smith hung up his bow tie. I watched the last xmas special that had been hanging around my sky box like an unloved quality street. It was rubbish, really rubbish.

 

Writing has gone to pot. Whether the new lady doctor (who they've decided to outfit like she got dressed in the dark) can spark a bit of life into it I don't know.

I have tried to watch it more than a few times but I just cannot get into it, I agree though, it is a very big money earner for the BBC and is globally popular, I must be missing something.

The problem is the show hasn't really gone anywhere. Its too repetitive. I still watch it but don't love it.

Wow, she's a long termer, I think once you get into it you stay with it, for me dropping in and out is no good because there is so many things about it I dont understand.

I think that the opening scenes were shot at Wharncliffe Crags overlooking Deepcar.

I found it boring, confusing and repetetive. How disappointing can’t see this getting good reviews.

For a programme that used to be for children there seemed to be lot of death and an all but incomprehensible plot, but maybe it was always that way?

 

It seemed to get very dark very quickly between finding the object in the quite light woods and climbing into the train in total darkness. Not sure what happened to the guard or conductor on the train but it isn't possible to lean out and open the doors on any trains operating between Hathersage and Grindleford.
