When The Doctor was giving his speech to Jack, Rose & Donna about "You've been brilliant", I was hoping he was going to finish it off with "and so have I!" as Christopher Ecclescake said to Rose just prior to regenerating.
Also, I was really hoping the Hand would regenerate into Christopher Ecclescake (some regeneration technobabble would have explained it), instead of Doctor-2. He can't really be last of the Timelords now- what with him having a Timelord Daughter-Clone and a 1/2 Timelord-Clone, it seems to cheapen things.
Also, the Doctor/Rose thing was bound to happen, but using the 1/2 Doctor-2 () as a proxy was just terrible- Rose loves The Doctor, (blatantly for his Tardis ). She can't seem to grasp that 1/2 Doctor-2 is the same guy, only human... Sorta... It doesn't seem right.
The genocide of the Daleks was also a bad way to tie everything up; they're (unfortunately) bound to make a reappearance, so why stubble into the same trap of having to come up with a ridiculous way of reintroducing them (via a Cult that took refuge in between Universes, etc).
And the Doctor really should have removed the memories from most of the people on Earth, including Donna. He said that any minute detail would bring back her Memories; it seems like the next time she watches the News and has a full report she'll blow a fuse...
Davros wasn't neccessary; he didn't add anything to the plotline; apart from provide a means to resurrect the Daleks once again. Also adding a human-face to the Daleks... The Maniacal Laughter when he started the Reality Bomb was great though.
Not the best of episodes; probably the worst of Season Finales in the new seasons, but good none-the-less.
