Watched the Doctor Who season finale with Ten last night.

WAAAAUGH.

That's all. Just WAAAAUGH. Also, I'd like to buy the soundtrack please.

... is it a bad sign that that episode put me in an immensely better mood after a bad day wrestling with SQL server?


WAAAAAAUGH.

ETA: Fair warning, there may be spoilers in the comments.

Can you guess which bit in the two parter brought a lump to my throat? :-)

This season reminded me of my liking for a certain Macauley poem 'Horatius'

"For how may a man die better, than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

Horatia on the stairwell ;-)

Much as I loved Rose, I can't wait to see more of the (I suspect) snarky-as-all-get-out runaway bride.

And, by the way--on a related topic--I thought that utterly crack episode about the mundane losers tracking evidence of the Doctor on Earth was proof that the 'Doctor Who' writers have been watching a *lot* of 'Farscape'.

I mean, an intentionally all-crack episode of 'Doctor Who'. Has that ever happened before? Twenty-five plus years, but I don't think it has.

New Dr Who

(giggling) well, *that* was a real way to avoid work for 45 min!!!! I doubt very much if we'll ever get to see those over here, The Doctor never caught on. Guess I'll have to get DVDs. My 'first' Doctor was Tom Baker, and I've never really accepted any of the others, but I love the series. One summer in the USA, they had episodes in the early morning, 0730 each morning M-F, so you could watch a whole story really quickly. Great!!
THANKS, [livejournal.com profile] quintus. Much appreciated.

Black Dalek was, indeed, an awesomely snarky SOB.
