The beginning is normal and not very unique, but that works in DW perfectly. Rose is late for work and is rushing around her flat (she lives with her mum.) When she finally gets there, she needs to deliver a lottery ticket. She goes in the basement. She starts to hear strange noises and it is eerily quiet. THEN!!! The window shop dummies corner her! (The Autons.) The Autons are great creatures!!What I love in DW is when the alien/creatures or monsters are really basic simple things. The Autons are a great way to introduce a new audience into the show!!! I love DW as I'm getting older I find being scared while watching episode can be REALLY hard! And that's why it can appeal to many anges. (When you're a child you scare easier)
THEN:
The star of the show is introduced! The Doctor bursts onto our screens. The character of the doctor (in his ninth body) is very closed and secretive. We get told he is a Time lord and also an alien... AND he has to fight evil nearly everyday of his life and he's being doing it a while! He and Rose together in my opinion are a great package and bounce off each other well. I personally think the Doctor teaches Rose and Rose teaches the Doctor in an odd sort of way.
ROSE'S FAMILY (AND BOYFRIEND)
Rose's family is strong but her father died in a car crash when Rose was a baby so it has been Jackie (Rose's mum) and Rose. Jackie is hilarious and very worried for her daughter's safety. Mickey when he first meets the Doctor he is worried (and jealous) that Rose admires him so much.
DEFEAT OF THE AUTONS
Like in every story or series there has to be a happy ending! The defeat of the autons is great! We got the impression that the Doctor always saves the day but NO! Rose comes in and rescues him by kicking a tube of liquid. It fell into the Autons boss (the Nestene Consciousness) and he died.
All in all this a a good episode but could be tweaked a bit. The characters are good, the plot is good..
8/10
