More Whovain casting spoilerdom

[bellinghman]

I see they've announced Catherine Tate is to be Doctor Who's new companion.

Umm. I'm rather unsure about her. I do hope her casting is less irritating than I fear it might be - I've just got used to a bright, intelligent companion, and now it looks like we may be getting a dumb one again.

Celebrity casting alert!

I'm more than unsure: I'm livid. I've never liked anything she's done, she's objectionable and talentless and turns everything to dross. She appeals to the morons who'll watch anything as long as it has recurring catchphrases, grotesques, and not a shred of originality. See also: Little Britain.

Didn't they learn anything from her appalling performance in the Christmas episode?

Oh thank god, other unsure people. I don't like her. I thought she did ok in the christmas ep but generally I don't like her. So I am prepared to be pleasantly surprised but more than a little unsure...
