Doctor Who: The End of the World
Apr. 5th, 2005 10:14 amI loved Saturday's episode again, although our digibox didn't record the first couple of minutes in the TARDIS (the bit with the bicycle pump! howls, screams of rage and bitterness!). Good job there's a repeat on Sundays on BBC3.
Lots of funny stuff: the National Trust owning the Earth, the iPod. And of course in the future there will still be space plumbers. Can't stop whistling that bloody Britney Spears tune.
It was the sad bits that got me of course: all the deaths! Jabe (beautiful make-up and costume), the Steward (brilliant make-up), Raffalo (my heroine). I am sad beyond words for the Moxx of Balhoon, keep thinking of that bit of smoke... And, of course, finding out that Gallifrey is gone and the Doctor is the last Time Lord - be still my angsting heart. (How does that work, exactly? Can he not nip back now and then to Gallifrey for a quick cup of tea when he's feeling a bit lonely?) Mr A. pointed out that the Doctor took Rose to see the end of her world so that she could understand how he felt. And he's picked a good companion in Rose - chips definitely help for all manner of things, although I assume they'd be southern chips and so not as good.
Somehow it seems likely that the Earth will end when no-one is looking.
A couple of icons behind the cut, if anyone wants them.
