    Tell me about it. Once you get whacked in the face with a tepid flipper your whole world turns upside down.
    Especially if that dolphin is actually The Rani in disguise.

    Thank you Mr. Moffatt for making a distinction between plot and story! All my love to you for at least the next two hours.
    Doctor Who, with a few exceptions is very much story focussed.
    For all that I'm not as big a fan of Ten as I was way back when series three started airing, I can still see his character develop over his tenure, watch how the emotions punch people in the face repeatedly.
    Nine and Eleven's reigns do this too.
    With a few glaring exceptions - hello Rose! Nice to see you stagnating in a swamp of anti-development over there.

    The plots of Doctor Who on the other hand . . . let's just say that while they're overall more coherent than Classic Who, the average Nu Who episode has a fair number of plot holes and silly bits.
    In some cases they're large enough to infuriate me.

    So yes, I do like that distinction, and seeing as I've said a quadrillion squillion times that I love character driven things lots this is why I'm willing to overlook a fair amount.
