Doctor Who Confidential

[topaz]

This message will make little sense or interest to you if you are not slavishly following Doctor Who, as I am.  Those of you who are, you probably want to skip this posting until after you have seen Partners in Crime.

!!??!? ROSE ?!??!?

That is all.  Thank you.

I try to avoid spoilers anyway so I had no clue. Fortunately for me keyne missed this spoiler too, so we were both shouting at the screen in complete and utter whatthefuckiness. (Thank goodness we didn't wake the boys.)

Dude.

I waited to read this until after I'd seen that episode. I agree completely: what the fuck? Is she actually dead and ghosting? Is she doing some weird transdimensional thing?

Ditto; just watched it tonight. And I too had not heard Rose would be appearing. Gobsmacked indeed.

(Really, I try to avoid all such news in advance; it's usually more fun not to know. Although I did know about Catherine Tate and, since I'm not fond of her character Donna, I'm glad I could "brace myself" in advance. She was less annoying than in "The Runaway Bride", but still annoying. On the up side, maybe we'll finally get a companion as simple traveling partner, with no romantic overtones or undertones. The "in love with the Doctor" thing is one of several ruts that Russell T. Davies is in. IMNSHO.)

I really hope they don't go there with Donna but I'm afraid my confidence is not high. I agree that's it's an unfortunate pattern for them to have fallen into.

I didn't mind it so much with Rose because it was actually sort of fresh there, but I'm ready for it to be over. The Doctor telling Donna explicitly "I just want a mate" does not bode well.

All I can say is, they better have a good explanation.
