Doctor Who

I am sitting here, large G&T in my hands, Doctor Who playlist running and it is currently 10:25 pm.
Well if you haven’t guessed this is going to be completely Doctor Who centric, I have to get it out of my system. No guarantees on making much sense though, I’ve gone fan girl mad, fair Warning.

Spoilers and generally little sense made:-)



OH MY GOD. What an episode. I can’t believe it’s over till Christmas, how will I cope? What am I going to do with my life? Well I know the answer to that, satisfy myself with reading the new books while patiently (yeah right) awaiting the release of the next three and the box set in November.
The episode was just perfect, the performances were spot on, the plot actually made sense, must be a first for sci-fi and it took me through all my known emotions and a few I didn’t know I possessed.
Fan girls the world over were squeeing over the Doctor/Rose kiss, even though she doesn’t remember it, yet. And there are a fair few who are also going nuts over the Doctor/Jack kiss, finally TV has been dragged kicking and screaming in to this century, god bless Russell T.
I am seriously going to miss Chris, he is and forever will be my official first Doctor and I will always have a soft spot for him. That said, David Tennant’s first line “New teeth. That’s weird” is what is still ringing in my ears and I look forward to seeing him in action at Christmas.
The special effects were amazing, never once looking cheap and never getting in the way of the acting. I hope next seasons budget is the same if not more, especially with the prospect of off world adventures. The emperor Dalek was impressive, not over used and got to the Doctor nicely. Emotional battles are always more satisfying to watch. Is this finally the end of the Dalek’ though, has Rose/TARDIS wiped them out for good, I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
THEY LEFT CAPTAIN JACK BEHIND, granted the Doctor thought he was dead, but still, when Jack watched the TARDIS leave I really felt for him. Do they go back for him or does he find some way to get back to them. I guess we find out next season.
The regeneration was handled beautifully, the Doctor trying his best to make light of it for Roses sake, the humour and the pain. Gah…it still makes me cry.
The Doctor’ line “Rose you were fantastic, and you know what, so was I” had me smiling through my tears. It was also poignant for the Doctor to die still standing, he never once went down, never gave up, and I loved him for it.

Chris Thank You for being my Doctor, no matter who comes after you will always be my first and therefore my favourite. And thank you Russell T. for giving him to me.
