Don't make assumptions about people's opinions. The Celtic thing didn't bother me at all, and I adored the water pistol stuff. Very in keeping with the old series.

I believe it's just an assumption, but to be honest I haven't watched it lately enough to recall.

Frankly I didn't notice this until it was pointed out to me, and I've watched it three times. I think it was someone here who accused them of being annoyingly obvious about this clear "planets vanishing" storyline, and while the new series has certainly used the sledgehammer treatment before on ongoing story arcs (Bad Wolf for instance), I think they're being subtle enough if I didn't notice it on my own after three viewings. I'm curious enough to see more, and I certainly don't feel like I'm having this rammed down my throat -- at least not yet. Admittedly it took most of series two for Torchwood to get annoying and until "Bad Wolf" to feel that way about the first series. So let's just see where they go with it.
