I actually did a rewatch/review of all of season one, but real life, other obsessions, etc. got in the way, so hopefully this will be the thing that gets me in gear to do the other episodes. Anyhoo, here are my thoughts after rewatching "Rose."

And thank you muchly for the hand!porn caps. *drool*
Chris and Billie do have wonderful chemistry. That might be part of the reason I love Nine/Rose more than Ten/Rose. Something about Nine and Rose was just right. They fit together. They worked for each other. And they looked mighty sexy holding hands all the time. XD
One little thing, the link for the earth spinning speech seems to lead to the cat flap clip.

Yup, this. I do love Billie and David, but chemistry-wise, Billie and Chris just owned my soul.

Mmmm, hand!porn. Glorious, cute, sexy hand!porn. The abundance of it is one of the many reasons S1 is still my favorite. The astounding chemistry between Chris and Billie is an even bigger reason. Like you said, David and Billie have more than enough chemistry make me believe that Ten and Rose love each other, but between Nine and Rose the air just crackles. There is so much intensity.
ah, I do love Christopher Eccleston. He so beautifully and subtly captured the Doctor's pain that was just there under the surface.

The second was the best part of that final scene. I mentioned above how much I loved the writing, direction and acting of it. And I really did.

And then there was Mickey, her responsibility, a reminder of the people who depended on her and that alone was a lovely point showing that Rose is not selfish :: and OHMYGOD! I'm an idiot!! I just got the why of the "time travel" line and why it worked.
^^Good catch.^^
And part of that mourning would come into play because I would have loved to have seen the Doctor's relationship with Rose blossom with Eccleston in the role simply because as great as the chemistry is between Tennant and Piper (and they DO have great chemistry), I still believe that it's just that more electric between Eccleston and Piper, I don't care if he's got almost twenty years on her, LOL!I don't think one Doctor has more chemistry with Rose than the other.
