Doctor Who: School Reunion
Brilliant!
-MICKEY AS A COMPANION! Finally! Am delighted about this and hope and pray it doesn’t end badly.
-That opening scene was hellava scary. I don’t like seeing kids in danger. :(
-That scene where Sarah sees the TARDIS, runs out, and the Doctor’s behind her? My favourite of the whole series so far. It was just perfect.
-What the hell, all the Sarah/Doctor/Rose scenes were perfect.
-I love Mickey’s lines in this. This is the first episode he’s been written by someone other than RTD, isn’t it? And the result being that he’s funnier than he normally is, which is all well and good. :D
-I hope Sarah went off to a happy life. And I hope Rose does the same, when she leaves. :(
-Annnnnd the most important thing: it’s almost three hours after the episode- why hasn’t there been any Doctor/Finch slash yet? (C’mon, you know you saw it too.)
EDITED TO SAAAAAY: Oh my god- Sarah repeated almost exactly what the Doctor and Rose have both said- ‘Everything has it’s time and everything ends’. A deliberate parallel, methinks.
And one for the God complex folks: He was offered the chance to become a god, pretty much, and he refused, but…damn, he looked like he was thinking about it.

Brilliant episode. Mickey was wonderful – I loved his utterly bitchy moment when he told Rose she’d better lay off the chips if she wanted to compete with Sarah.

“it’s almost three hours after the episode- why hasn’t there been any Doctor/Finch slash yet? (C’mon, you know you saw it too.)” I thought I was the only one that saw that slashy moment!!

I hated Rose in that episode.

Doctor/Finch yes. I’ve been thinking that since they gave each other a look in the preview XD

I think it might have been deliberate, if they’re setting up something weirdly menacing about the Doctor himself. Which they seem to be. I liked Murray Gold’s music for this episode, though some of the stuff when the kids were on their computers was a little too bombastic for my tastes. To the extent where it reminded me of the ad breaks for Brass Eye.
