This is not war. This is pest control.

I just saw Doomsday, final episode of Doctor Who Series 2. And I feel sick. IT WAS THAT GOOD. If you imagine Randy Orton, Brent Corrigan, Dolph Lungdren and Vin Diesel all naked and oiled while making sweet love in a field, you are still far off the mark of how orgasmically good this episode was. Firstly there are the Cybermen, who are my favourite Doctor Who villians. The new design is awesome and they are just perfect. Secondly there are the Daleks. Not only are they pure evil, they are bloody funny too. See my title. Then thirdly... they go to war!!! Ooo.. and fourthly... a Gallifreyan prison ship flying over Canary Wharf.

Add to this the terrible breakup of the dynamic duo of Rose and the Doctor, and you have the perfect episode. I was literally holding on to the sofa as Rose began to fall into the void space. Thank Christ for Pete Tyler is all I'm going to say. I had tears in my eyes as Rose and the Doctor said goodbye.

The solution to the Dalek/Cyberman invasion was not total bollocks as I felt the Parting of the Ways ending last year was. And the actual ending was sooooo moreish I can barely wait for the Christmas special.

But... why wait that long when Torchwood is on sooner... with the other Captain Jack.

  1. I still feel drained and can't stop rewatching it (I'm in danger of serious tape-knackering... no I DO NOT have a dvd recorder... sigh... I don't even have freeview)

    Anyway, I just wanted to drop by to say yeah for picking up on the "pest control" line (which I thought was excellent) and to agree that the farewell was wonderful. When he's a little calmer, DT as the Doctor just blows the world away for me. The scenes where he has his hand on the void/wall and the shot of his tears... jeez, I'm welling up just thinking about it.
