Sorry for the delay - internet went down just as I clicked create conversation....

UQD I think they'll still be into it somehow

UnquietDad · 05/07/2008 23:01

All the stuff the Ninth Doctor used to berate Rose and fellow "apes" for being - ordinary chip-eating TV-watchers oblivious to the rest of the universe - Rose has escaped it all, but Donna never will.

It's a tragic ending without a death. I think it would be a mistake to compromise that by doing something with Donna in the future.

PotPourri · 05/07/2008 23:01

UQD - well we are all still into it and we've had more than 2 years gap...

UnquietDad · 05/07/2008 23:01

aaagh! SJS does not have a magic pedant. She has a magic pendant. Of course.

Frizbe · 05/07/2008 23:03

harhar

RustyBear · 05/07/2008 23:03

Magic pedant is much better

VeniVidiVickiQV · 05/07/2008 23:06

oh yes - I forgot about the master's ring.

The thing with Rose and the other doctor was a bit twee, no?

RustyBear · 05/07/2008 23:07

Well, DD became a Who fan just on our accumulated videos from the classic series, which finished a couple of months before she was born.

She's still really a Classic fan at heart, one of her 'great moments' is meeting Tom Baker at a convention last spring.

MegBusset · 05/07/2008 23:08

Bit inconsiderate to snog the human Doctor in front of the real Doctor, I thought -- she could have waited til he'd gone?

I loved it, though. Very sad about Donna.

UnquietDad · 05/07/2008 23:09

Maybe the Master's ring will be explored in a future episode. Quite deeply. It's a gap that needs to be plugged.

But the ring Donna was wearing in today's episode wasn't anything like the master's ring - it was grey an elongated shield shape with facets like a diamond - the masters ring was round, with a green centre & metal plaques engraved with symbols around the centre.

UnquietDad · 05/07/2008 23:33

A penetrating ring discussion awaits, I think.

I must admit I was enjoying the other bits of the episode too much to pay much attention to the ring piece.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 05/07/2008 23:39

Snort!

TennantbellesMum · 05/07/2008 23:41

Maybe Robin Hood will be back soon.

Oh I hope not! I carried on watching it after TBD stopped and then they killed Marion!

TennantbellesMum · 05/07/2008 23:42

PotPourri, she was hearing the Doctor's single heart.

RustyBear · 06/07/2008 00:04

Donna's ring (actually it's an oval shape)
Master's ring

It was great - all this talk of the ring is going straight over my head. (except in the smutty sense of course)

We have only really watched this series.

S1ur · 06/07/2008 01:32

I have to post before I read, I watched the finale of this season and oooh ooh ooh but I can't read thread unles someone tells me there are no future spoilers about David T's contract or episodes or in fact anything.

I thought tonight's episode was fanblardytastic.

Lapin I spotted your message must quiz you later

PortAndLemon · 06/07/2008 08:14

As they said in Confidential, the human Doctor was prepared to tell her he loved her while the alien one never could (which is why the human one got the snog). They could have had better dialogue in that scene, though.
