Was it good?, Or bland

Nice use of color I have to say. Christopher Eccleston's performance is amazing as always, he Excells at being a fun, but mysterious figure like. And Eccleston always does a fantastic job. For me this was the downfall of Rose, don't get me wrong Billy piper is a talented actress but after this episode I don't think she was as good as she was in Rose, and don't get me started on Siries 2 because that's even worse. She has a teenager vibe to her, likes the winge and complain even if it was the littlest of things, and in this episode I just don't think it worked. A reason for that, is this was primarily a light hearted episode, so her complaining and moaning is out of context really. The villains were also weak. They didn't have an interesting storyline, and the design was nice on them though. Does Lead to one of my favorite lines of dialogue at the end though, buy Christopher Eccleston, line of delivery was funny but also you really got a sence that are characters where in danger, which is a great part. Sets up the Bad Wolf storyline briefly and abruptly, but was nice for it to be continued further down the lines. Charles was also a great audition leading to some fun moments with him and the Doctor, with layers that added to his character. So whilst I think this episode gets a lot wrong, it gets a lot right, solid Who episode.

So,

Was it good?, Or Bland?

It's fine

5.5/10.
