Just finished the episode of Doctor Who. I now need to apologize for all the rude things I have said recently about the secret keeping ability of the BBC.
First, I have to admit that I peeked at the discussion of the episode before I got to watch it. It was killing me to have to wait until later. When I read the news about Rose being in the episode I could not believe it. Then I read some more and I was almost in tears (Funny combination tears and dancing around screaming).
I wonder if this is going to be something that happens frequently this season. RTD apparently is not content to break our hearts at the end of the season. It now appears that he wants to do it repeatedly! She looked so sad and disappointed. There was also a bit of a hard edge to her. I just wanted to scream, "He's around the bloody corner!"
The rest of the episode was pretty good. I think I might actually like Donna being the Doctor's companion. Didn't much care for her in the Christmas special. There was a lot of funny stuff. Thank goodness she's not interested in a romantic relationship with the Doctor.
Another thing I'm curious about for this season is the number of season one references. There were several in this episode and one in the trailer for next week. I wonder what it's leading to?
All in all not a bad night. Now that I've finally seen it, maybe I can stop bouncing around like a five year old on a sugar high. My family is starting to worry about my sanity. It seems that this is not normal behavior for a college educated woman in her thirties. Usually I keep a pretty tight reign on my little major DW obsession, but I've practically been bursting at the seems the past few days. Can't wait until next week.
