Neil's Review 2005 piece is further down the page. Scroll down.
TV "David gets it ... What's really fascinating is that the Doctor doesn't settle on his character immediately. He plays with his persona. He tests it out. To put it simply, he uses the current threat to discover who he is and what he's capable of. And while it has become de riguer to echo past Doctors after a regeneration, the 10th does so in such a way it left me feeling dizzy with anticipation. For a moment there it could have gone either way. We could have ended up with a right bastard or a fey fop. What we get is an incredibly natural amalgam that simply screams Doctor! without ever feeling forced or a diluted parody." -- Neil Perryman captures the excitement of the Christmas Doctor Who perfectly, and says all the things I would really want to say. I hadn't noticed the yellow Hitchhikers style JCBs.
