Excellent episode.

9/10. *applauds* And the doomsday theme is becoming Rose's new theme apparently.

Martha next week. *high fives*

I didn't notice that, nice observation. Greeen.

Excellent loved every mintue, especially the referance to the snow. What's the theory on the end of the doctors song? regeneration or his song as the last of the time lords? maybe they actually are going to come back.

Enjoyed this week's episode. Great to see the Ooood again. I was wondering what that comment about the Doctor was all about. Sounded quite ominous. Could we be nearing the end of DT's tenure. I'm probably reading too much into it, though.

As the Ood refer to the Doctor and Donna as a singular "item" ie. DoctorDonna I think its related to

Spoiler:

Donna leaving at the end of Season four

I love how real they look and how their eyes blink diagonally. And I loved how the Tim McInnery Ood sneezed out his brain.

[Missster.Freeman]

haha Madeleine, it was quite a big hoch-a-loogie. I was surprised at how graphic and delectably squicky Halpern's transformation was. I love the Ood now. Such beautiful music from them.

Hmm. Yep, it could be.

Really fabulous episode. Had me utterly enthralled. Tim McInnery made a fabulous villain and the Ood were as fascinating as ever. Still enjoying the relationship between the Doctor and Donna and Catherine Tate once again did a sterling job. Really quite an action-packed episode with chases and explosions and gunfire.. I thought the scene of the Doctor being chased by the loading claw was great, really well executed.

Interesting that the bee thing was mentioned again - and really mentioned this time too, not just a passing reference. I take back my previous statements that the reference in PiC wasn't relevant... unless of course RTD is just toying with us with misdirection!

Loved the visuals of the ice planet too.

Most excellent. Tim McI turning into the Ood reminded me of the gas mask thing from The Empty Child. Very spooky.

Indeed, apparently the producers wanted that scene to be even more gruesome but they had to tone it down for the kids

[wise one]

lol i just liked a scene when one Ood just attacked a soldier and just started waving his tecticles at his face..


probably just me but they were in the yaer 41something and they still had projectile weapons, for a race that has biusness with 3 other galaxies they dont have anything like plasma guns or something

projectile weapons are probably more reliable and cheaper to manufacture as well that company struck me as the sort to cut any corners possible

it wasnt just that they were projectile weapons they were m16's i mean those are almost outdated already, was probably cutting corners with props more than anything else
