Is it bad, that the thing that made me cry was the TARDIS? It really did look about to die.
I'm a little confused about the timeline. General Election means it must be 2008... but I thought the Torchwood finale was set in 2007? How on earth are they going to explain Jack being away for that much time (to Torchword 3, not the viewers)?
Also... John Barrowman has put on weigh and not a little.
No. You have no idea how badly it broke my heart to see what the Master did to the TARDIS. :( It's not fair! She's always supposed to be safe! Sacred ground, or something.
As for the timeline...I have no idea. :/ But then, dating DW has always been a challenge...
Do you think she can be fixed? It looked rather bad.
Well... we know this epsidoe was definately on May 5th and 6th 2008, but I kinda hate it when things have a set date, takes the mystery out.
A few places have brought this up and its freaks me. Do you think this could be the end of 10? Because the BBC has not confirmed that Tennant is back next series.
She has to be fixable! If she's not, then that...that...that just breaks all the rules of the game!
And I really, really hope we can hold on to 10 for a while longer. :/ Some of the spoilers look good--filming photos point to Ten, Martha, and Jack all being together, and Ten being young again, by the end of the episode. So I'm hoping?
Oh and that phone scene? How sexual was that? Ridiculously sexual. Astonishingly sexual. I thought Torchwood was supposed to be the "adult" spinoff, how come DW is so much sexier?
I keep getting the urge to write Tochwood-in-the-Himalayas fic. Must...resist...temptation...
Martha's brilliant. Really, really brilliant. She's finally come into her own as a character so much since this latter half of the season. I do hope she saves the day and gets a chance to show that she's just as good as Rose (if not better) and do some really awesome kick butt things next week.
Simm!Master is so hot. I always fall hard for the bad boys...why? And there were so many totally slashy Master/Ten moments throughout the episode. I loves it (even if it's giving me even MORE plot bunnies).
Did you ever watch any of Life On Mars? If you like Simm, watch that. Sam Tyler couldn't possibly be a more different character to Saxon/The Master. He's such a diverse actor.
Martha is really so, so amazing. As far as I'm concerned she's officially The Best Of Them All Since Barbara. This is possibly biased by absolute adoration of Babs. But Martha is v. v. close. :D
I haven't seen any Life On Mars, but I'd love to, I've heard great things about it!
I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Barbara yet...I've still got so much Old School Who to work through. I'm going through Seventh Doctor episodes at the moment, but when I've seen all those I'll be eager to pick another era to work though. There's just so much. It's great having so much to select from, though I think I'll probably reach fifty and STILL be catching up, LOL.
Life On Mars is absolutely fantastic. I didn't get it the first time around but I saw the light and fell in love eventually. Watch it...I defy you not to fall in love with Gene Hunt.
Barbara is lovely and I have an irrationally huge adoration of her. Of course, she's also a strong, self-assured, capable, clever woman in the sixties! :D But I know what you mean--there's so much old school Who, I look at it sometimes and I get overhwelmed at the idea of getting caught up on it. XD
Okay, now I have to get my hands on LOM! LOL, it sounds awesome.
(Speaking of which, the Master and the Doctor were TOTALLY college boyfriends. Not that I have ever doubted that before, but now it is CANON. Sort of. Borderline.)
I thought so too. There's too much subtext for it not to be canon. Or mostly canon.
