doyleIs it March yet? I needs the new series of Doctor Who. I needs it.
- Oh God, Harriet. I had read The Independent's article which spoiled the ending but it hadn't registered and in the last five minutes I was thinking 'but they got it wrong, she didn't launch the missile' and then she gave Torchwood the go-ahead and... *weeps* And the Doctor ruining her career (? Does he? Because history says she served three terms, according to Aliens of London...), coming so close after her 'my Doctor', made me bawl.
- I did wonder if they went to all the trouble of making those big UNIT HQ sets just for one episode. Hmm.
- Ten! TenTenTenTenTen! Who knows the lyrics to Circle of Life and has glasses (I had a moment of Five-squee; his wardrobe does seem to be a darker Five) and who MET ARTHUR DENT. I knew I'd love Ten - I've loved every one of them so far, and I will glare hard in the general direction of those who hate on Six or Seven - but I'm delighted to love him this much.
- Aw, Mickey. I already liked Mickey, but this was the first time I really liked Jackie, and I adored the four-way hug at the end. And I could really go for some Ten/Mickey. Or Ten/Jackie. Or Mickey/Jackie. Or Harriet/anyone.
- Speaking of Harriet/anyone, her hug with Rose and calling her a precious thing: RTD, this femslasher sincerely thanks you.
- I got accidentally spoiled yesterday for the Luke Skywalker moment, but it still made me gasp. Is that new canon, the 15 hour regeneration gap? Neatly explains how Romana was able to change her bodies. Possibly.
- Aww, Ten turning up for Christmas dinner and wearing a paper hat. Not something I can imagine Nine doing.
- I loved, loved, loved the TARDIS not translating the language because she just isn't working properly while the Doctor's so ill, and I had my fingers crossed the whole episode for the language to suddenly turn into English and it did and I squeed. (And during our hour-long dissection over the phone after the episode,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
connorbeast said 'but that means as soon as the TARDIS left Troy in The Myth Makers... god, poor Vicki.' Which is what I've had kicking around in my head about that episode for ages. Vindication!)
- Sarah-Jane's not one of my favourite old-school companions since her era's still one I haven't seen a lot of, but it was amazing seeing her in the trailer (may I say, she's still quite a babe). And K9! And ASH! School Reunion will just be an acronym fest. I wonder which episode has Rose jumping the Doctor, as well...
Anyway, if any of you need me, I'll be in my shed building a time machine to take me to March. (Actually I'll be in my bedroom hoarding old school videos, Big Finish audios and the PDAs/EDAs and chanting 'it's okay, I can get my canon fix from these!' Who fandom, what have you done to me?)
