    This episode is so great and so sad, but in a good way. I really think they handle her Dad realizing what has happened, realizing he is dead and then sacrificing himself in a well done way! One of Rose's best episodes I think.

    Christopher Eccleston would have made a fantastic Doctor had he hung around..
    He would. And he's my favorite so far. The only other one to come close is Paul McGann...

    There were many episodes where i almost cried. This is a truely beautiful episode.
    .. aside from the sadness, i thought the doctor and rose were going to kiss in that church.
    (i wonder if they will ever kiss.. i am new to this show so dont spoil it.)

    I thought it was said that the paradox was undone, thus all the bad things that happened as a result also were. It's not the first time that New Who's gone with Deus Ex Machina and it's certainly not the last but it feels a lot less forced than some of the others
    The "FTMTBYA" are the Flying Time Monkeys That Bite Your Ass

    Really good soundtrack for the episode. It really added to the heartbreak of Rose losing her father, meeting him, and then losing him again. I also liked the fact that Pete realized that in order to set the future back on track, he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Despite any failures in business, he succeeded when it really counted by saving the timeline.

    i think it was because the time had been returned so like with all the people that had been taken were returned it never happened and they all returned but i am not sure
