oh no it's Doomsday!

Black daleks roooooOOOOl. That dalek has a great deadpan on him. Omg, they have plunger-shaped doorknobs! The Cybermen look like they're flossing in comparison. Cheeky buggers, blocking the tv (waits for some trekkers to say they're ripping off the borg :D)

Ack! He's been crapeffected to death! Euuurrgh, his head is all dry. Heh, they're going to be all "It's my turn to take over the earth" "Oh, so sorry, after you". Oh great, now they're trash-talking each other, very mature. Nice parallel to the end of "Bad Wolf". And Jackie's last words are whiny. Damn, Mickey looks good, how did that happen? Oh great, it's the Cheese Commandoes. And Jake, here fro his personal chum, Mickey. He has a magic button! Er, yay. Ooh, surprise appearance of Dodgy Pete. 'tever.

Aw, a flashback to 'Dalek'. She feels guilty. The Daleks want her to grope the Ark and wake Davros... nope, it's a baby timelord. Aw. He just said "Daerrleks" in a Scottish accent, oops. His psychological 'your wife' stuff is a bit dim.

So Rose remembers the Vortex/goddess events but we don't get to see her remember it? Bah. SOCIAL INTERACTION WILL CEASE! THAY SEK JAST KARN. A secret order of backstory daleks all completely not called Locutus or humanoidcylons. I want the daleks to win! Cybermen are stupid! Donotdescribeplotwhilerunningffs. Pete meets Jackie, ya ya hrm. Yes, bringing up Rose Tyler, supergoddess is justification enough. How does Pete know how his otherself was different? Maybe Otherpete was rich too for all he knows. They hug, so obvious from about eight episodes ago.

Ok, cyberddues, try flying. Eek, it's a Tardisical dalek-hiding portal! Oops! So we pull a technobabble explanation out of our tiny pert butts again, Doc? Only there's a flaw. He has to dump Rose in airshipworld because she has void rabies. Ehh. Oh, and he makes the choice for her, the condescending gimp. He's doing some beautiful face-acting, especially his look of guilt when she says she'll never leave him. Erm, so cyberBosswoman is a bit human? How? Isn't this a bit much to add at this stage? Daleks being hoovered, Rose being Herioic. Doctor gurning. Her cleavage sucked into hell. Pete rescues the maiden. Rose is stuck with her parents. The Doctor looks wretched, but at least he knows she's safe. Mickey looks a teeeeny bit pleased. He's sending a message like Nine did, but cheesier. Aw,she hasn't got any great last words. So she's only dead to her mate Shareen really. He doesn't like his life of bumming around, really, so why does he do it?

"Quite right too"... and fade. Nice touch for the shippers. Don't cry, emo Timelord! He has lovely hands. WTF is Catherine Tate doing to bugger the mood? Wuh?

So, so so. The dalek-and-cyberman war was rushed and badly-explained, but I liked the idea of the Daleks using tradis tech to spurt them into the world. The void-dust guff was your typical Russell bollocks. CLearly he was always going to put Rose+Mama+Papa+SafeBoyf together in the other world, but at least the actual scemes were well-done. Like last year, they save Rose from being entirely the resuced-maiden by having her do something - pull the lever this time. But between the Doctor and Pete, two men have intervened to save our ickle princess from her foolish self. I wish that she'd been truly heroic and been sucked into the void, rather than be rescued and kept in safe family safeness. The final scene was sweet, but no more than expected - right up to the way he faded out before he could say anything. Of course he would. I liked him standing alone stricken, and the way he genuinely sounded as if he'd rather work in a shop than travel the universe.

Shame they had to wank up the last scenje with a preview of the Christmas romp. What a bloody stupid idea. Also I was 100% right that Daleks would trash the silly Cybermen in a straight fight. Yah!
