Wow! Got a little messianic there, what with the flying doctor.

But jack becoming the Face of Bo is a brilliant touch!

lemonaid · 30/06/2007 20:11

Ending was pants -- everyone chanting Doctor? Magic flying David Tennant with magic powers? And no more John Simm.

I think Martha isn't in the Christmas special but is in the next series.

foxinsocks · 30/06/2007 20:14

my children adored it

they sat there, open-mouthed (and QUIET for the first time in the series) in amazement at the flying doctor

I was, shall we say, a little more sceptical but we watch it for them really, not me!

But a hard-worked Capt Jack saying "Cuffs" in a masterful voice.....?

"I do believe in fairies, I do, I do... I do believe in fairies, I do, I do..."

Hope RTD paid some royalties to Great Ormond Street...

No Cod, three of the best looking men on tv could never be shit

Eowyn · 30/06/2007 20:24

I thought it was both brilliant & a bit mad.
so that is that. Face of Boe great tho.

Chamomile · 30/06/2007 20:31

Why did Martha Jones have such an important part? I'm not a die-hard fan but I can't remember any other companions doing so much.

SoupDragon · 30/06/2007 20:44

Rose and the Daleks??

SueBaroo · 30/06/2007 21:00

Magic flying David Tennant was a pretty lame resolution, but I wouldn't mind one myself.

And Jack had to be the Face of Boe, because he was the only other one who would a)live long enough and b) know that the Doctor wasn't alone.

pagwatch · 30/06/2007 21:03

NO MORE JOHN SIMM !!!!!! ARGGGHHHHHH

Does it fit in with canon then , SueBaroo, about Face of BO - for I've not seen enough to judge?

bea · 30/06/2007 21:11

just watched it loved it...! (taped it as had to put dc's to bed)... but what's going on with martha? is she gone ? or is it just for the chirstmas one? is it because she hasn't cut the mustard? or does she need a break? will she be back for next series? questions questions questions....

SueBaroo · 30/06/2007 21:13

Well, yeah, because RTD introduced the FoB, so presumably knew what he was going to do with the character from the get-go.

But the more I think about the resolution, the more I'm disappointed. The Doctor said 'use the countdown', right? Well, how the flippergibbet would Martha know what that meant?

(sorry for the geeky plot dissection, OG is out for the count tonight...)

Chamomile · 30/06/2007 21:14

I didn't like her before but she certainly cut the mustard for the last storyline!

AttilaTheMum · 30/06/2007 21:15

And how did the doctor know there was going to be a countdown anyway - or did I miss the Master outlinig his plans for war before Martha left?

belgo · 30/06/2007 21:16

I'm glad that Martha Jones finally had a bigger role to play - she was underused for quite a few episodes.

I saw an old episode today for the first time, with Rose, about 'Madame Pompidou'(sp?). Really good episode, glad I finally got to see it.

Chamomile · 30/06/2007 21:20

Poor Jack.

Aitch · 30/06/2007 21:24

lol chamomile, i too am for jack.

UnquietDad · 30/06/2007 21:27

Martha will be back, on and off, I feel... maybe in the odd "Torchwood" too.

belgo - Madame de Pompadour. "Girl in the Fireplace". I remember when "old episode" used to mean a Jon Pertwee!

Has he regenerated then? Is he now the 11th Doctor?!

dunno, i missed that. but surely they'll have covered it in last week's ep? a disastrous editing mistake if they didn't.
