Doctor Who finale

I've been out tonight, so I've only just seen the finale.



I loved it. It broke my heart and I cried like a baby, but I loved it.

I'm going to miss Rose, Jackie and Mickey.

I'm excited to see where S3 will take us from here, but it's going to take me a while to get over losing Rose. I didn't think it would hit me quite as hard as this, but it has. I'm used to seeing companions come and go, but this time I think I've allowed myself to get too emotionally involved with the Doctor/Rose.

To me, it was the perfect end to the season. If Rose had to go at all, then that was the way to do it.

The Doctor and Rose with their hands pressed on either side of the wall. It reminded me so much of Buffy and Spike with their hands against the crypt door! *happy sigh* A coincidence? Or more proof that the writers of Doctor Who are Buffy fans?

Billie and David acted their socks off in their final scenes together.

Poor Rose. Poor Doctor.

My heart broke for them.

But at least Rose didn't really die. She could come back at a later stage. I'm going to hold on to that for the time being.

Where the hell did the bride come from? :)

Next up: Torchwood and Captain Jack! :D

I am so excited about Torchwood!

It will be interesting to see how the Doctor and his new companion will interact with each other. And the Doctor and Captain Jack.

Oh my. Poor Rose. Poor Doctor. Tears from both of them.

*sigh*

I was really scared she was going to die when her hand slipped off the lever. The dad rescue was awesome, beautifully done. And the closure was well done too. And the teaser for the future, good plan not ending on the angst.

I watched part of the 'making of' afterwards. Terry Nation? was lovely on how he wouldn't kill her.

I'm a long time watcher, so is the husband. We had a long chat the changing of 'The Doctor' from grandfather to his presenr incarnation.

I was scared she was going to die, too. I'm so glad they didn't kill her off! I think it works much better this way. :)

I'm a long time watcher, too. I vaguely remember Jon Pertwee, but Tom Baker was the doctor I watched when I was a little girl. It's interesting when you think of the first incarnation to the present incarnation.
