The Tenth Doctor was the tenth incarnation of the renegade Time Lord known as the Doctor. Unlike his immediate predecessor, who was plagued by melancholy due to his actions during the Last Great Time War, this incarnation was much more outgoing and genial, a demeanour that hid the "survivor's guilt" that had plagued him since the war. Over his life, however, the weight became much more pronounced. He was haunted by companions lost, enemies believed long-dead and events that threatened the fabric of time itself. He met his end after he absorbed a huge quantity of nuclear radiation whilst saving the life of his friend, Wilfred Mott, leading to his regeneration into his next incarnation.

Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair and The Doctor comes to call, everybody lives.

Although he spent a good deal of the episode unconscious, I thought the parts where the Doctor was active made a good introduction to his character.

He spent half of the episode, if not more, asleep. I don't think we got to see enough of him here, but what we did see was interesting enough. Not his best story or even David's best portrayal, but he was intriguing and that's still good because it leaves you wanting to see more.

I thought his introduction shared a lot of similarities with Jon Pertwee, and that is no bad thing. I liked the Doctor at this point, but I was very much in the camp of 'he will never live up to Eccleston' at this point.

He was a bit all over the place, which you can put down to the regen, but overall it was a pretty good introduction to Ten.

Sneak peeks of brilliance, small nuggets of annoying, but overall pretty watchable.
