I agree on the Lee Evans thing. I usually loathe him with the red hot passion of a thousand fiery suns. And the "genius" = "needy, bumbling dork" stereotype makes me ill with rage. But for some reason, he pulled this off to such an extent that it merely made me go "meh". In a slightly affectionate way, even.
Michelle Ryan annoyed me. There was bugger all depth to her character, which came as a disappointment after Donna, who went around gleefully smashing stereotypes into smithereens (apparently shallow, raucous and not terribly bright, but in the crunch empathetic, thoughtful and very capable).
