Another thought-provoking episode!

This isn't really a big one either way for me... it has some good moments, but in a lot of ways I feel like it's just sort of there... so I suppose I'll just begin.

Spoilers for Voyage of the Damned, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if anyone cares.

Over the next, well, probably long while, I'm going to be counting down my favorite 20 episodes of Doctor Who with picspams of each one. As was the case in with my series 4 reviews, I tend to get distracted from the plot by the pretty. This is the first: #20 - The Idiot's Lantern.

To my LJ

This episode compelled me to take a lot of caps. And then it made me make strange squeaking noises in the back of my throat. ANYWAY.

( The Idiot's Lantern. )

And now, we reach the point in series 2 where really, it's all about the Doctor and Rose. Starting with probably one of my all-time favorite episodes, The Idiot's Lantern!

( we're tipsy. only tipsy. )

( Reactions and recap ahoy! )

The only new thing I caught when watching The Idiot's Lantern again this time is that there's a Torchwood mention. HUH. It happens when the Doctor's going into tunnel-vision mode at faceless Rose, and so he completely misses it. I wanna see 1950s Torchwood!

( On to other things. Spoilers for Voyage of the Damned and a S4 mention. )
