 THE CHRISTMAS INVASION
It is Christmas, but there is little cause for celebration as the Earth is invaded by the alien Sycorax.

But will the Doctor recover in time, and can Rose trust a Doctor with a new and unfamiliar face?

NEW EARTH
"Oh... chav-tastic!" ... In the year five billion and twenty-three, after the destruction of the Earth, the Doctor takes Rose to the New Earth. There, in a hospital facility, the feline Sisters of Plenitude can cure any disease, but in the basement an old enemy of the Doctor is out for revenge.
I can see David Tennant becoming one of my favourite Doctors, managing to combine a sense of eagerness, authority and intelligence. It was also great to finally have the Doctor and Rose making full use of the TARDIS and visiting a genuinely alien world after the more Earth-centric focus of the first series. The return of Cassandra was also quite welcome, with the body-swapping giving rise to some nice acting by Billie Piper and some nice comedy dialogue.
