Wish I could watch it all again for the first time....
Production values may have gone through the roof, but instead we got a show where interesting stories just went out of the window. The amount of stories that were set in either modern day London or Cardiff was staggering and the amount of historical stories was taking the piss as well. Whatever happened to wandering through diverse alien planets!

Great show.
