Doctor Who 2007, Episode 1: "Smith and Jones" (Spoilers likely)

[Thornir Alekeg]

I watched about 12-13 minutes of this episode (2nd and part of the 3rd pieces on YouTube) and was more than a little disappointed in the Galactic Rent-A-Cops. Not that they didn't look great, but their attitude. Don't have jurisdiction on the planet potential criminals are on? Just kidnap a whole area. (Glad to see that kidnapping isn't a crime where they come from.) If they find who they are looking for they're going to kill everyone in the area for harboring a fugitive when they didn't even know said fugitive existed! If that's their idea of justice, I'd sure hate to see what they do to traffic violators. (136,000 mps, it's not just a good idea, it's the LAW!)

I finally watched this episode last night. My wife and I both felt that the Jidoon are an example of extreme Lawful Neutral in action. They did as their mandate required them too, and were not concerned that it may have an impact on others as Earth itself was outside their mandate.
