Doomsday (2813/213)

Maybe the TARDIS didn't want to go.

Yeah, I know people have been able to "call" the TARDIS before and outside forces have had their influences on her, but I'm still inclined to say that if the TARDIS wanted to stay, she'd stay.

Now, if the Doctor had gotten somehow sucked into the Void, it might be interesting to see if the TARDIS followed him. Dunno just how far the TARDIS's loyalty/connection to the Doctor goes. Might still stay put and wait for the next Time Lord to come along. LOL

Well then she'd be a bit of a two timer then wouldn't she

[Mr Prophet]

Yeah, I think the explanation is pretty much: "TARDIS".

I dare you to say that to her... er... face... thingy.

I think it's certainly extended universe canon that TARDISes go off somewhere and expire gracefully when their Time Lord dies. It's all to do with the isomorphic link and the telepathic bond; very sweet really.

A bit like the Vorlon ships in Babylon 5, but I always got the impression we never knew whether it was Kosh in the suit as the real Vorlon or the ship itself.

this is a fantastic episode and i agree i bought Billie piper as roses emotion in this episode she is a great actor.

the passion she showed wanting to go back to the doctor was amazing she really lost her best friend

[gateship15]

i agree

[Cold Fuzz]

Brilliant episode. The exchange between the Daleks and Cybermen was hilarious.

"Daleks have no sense of elegance."
"Obviously."

"You are superior in only one aspect."
"And what is that?"
"You are better at dying."

"This isn't war. This is pest control."

And of course, Rose & the Doctor parting ways was...

[gateship15]

i love this episode. cyberman and Daleks fighting to take over earth

i found the parting of rose and the doctor very very sad

[Coco Pops]

I found the parting of Doctor and Rose a blessing, then they brought her back again and the Doctor's running up to her like a giddy schoolboy and get shot by a Dalek....

[gateship15]

it was cute to see them run like in one of those olds romantic movies only for him to get shot a fantastic seen.

[Gamma626]

Brilliant end to the series.

Well, I really can't say that any better. This is essentially what I was going to post on the episode.

The dialogue between the Cybermen and the Daleks kept cracking me up, too.

[Pharaoh Atem]

I will always love the pest control lineb

[juggernaut975]

Read somewhere that this story marks the first time that the Daleks and Cybermen have ever interacted on screen together. There have been other episodes where both have shown up (The Five Doctors for instance) but this is the first time they've ever encountered each other on screen.

Which is strange seeing how such a brilliant match up this is...

[iJOKE]

There is a few things about the episode i am not sure about:

Spoiler:

1)since Rose is in the parallel world.. cant the doctor ever come back to see her? I mean Mickey crossed to the world.. so cant she?
2) Why when Rose was sucked in to the other world the Doctor was worried about her? (that sounds strange i know) But earlier didnt the Doctor want Rose to leave in the first place? 3) Is the reason why Billie Piper left because of the typecast fear? Or was she just cut off?

Overall 10/10
I am scared to watch it again because i will cry again

Cool episode! Great end to Rose's arc. The preview of the next episode already pretty much convinced me that I won't like Catherine Tate's character at all... I hope I'm wrong!
