What a great episode!

[spoiler]Rose is my favorite companion so it was great seeing her again. The episode takes you through all the horrible things that happen when the doctor never meets Donna. The Doctor’s death beneath the Thames, Sarah Jane and Martha dying when the hospital goes to the moon, Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones dying fighting the Aesmos systems and Captain Jack getting transported back to Soltaran all happen because Donna took one wrong turn in her life under the influence of an alien bug that has attached itself to her back. Rose, who has been pulled across dimensions, sends Donna back to that fateful turn with a message for the Doctor, “BAD WOLF”! Duh duh DUUUHHH![/spoiler]

The upcoming episodes look awesome. The finale will be HUGE!!!

I’m a bit late on Doctor Who… (I just watched casually till becoming hooked late in season 3) I picked up a lot in the confidential episode but what’s the whole deal behind
[spoiler]Bad Wolf being the end the universe? I recall Rose looking into the tardis and being one with it’s power or whatever… saved the day and brought Capt.Jack back (right?) then she became a villain??? I must have missed that one. Explanations please?[/spoiler]

Edit: Meh… this is why they have wiki hehe

I came late too. Just this last season actually. I think that:

[spoiler]Bad wolf was related to the resurrection of the Daleks. Rose didnt be come a villain, the power was killing her so the Doctor transferred it to him to save her. She told Donna “Bad Wolf” so that a) he would know it was her and b) because bad wolf is again infiltrating the worlds with their influence. The last time they used it to subjugate the earth and now it has spread to all the universes.[/spoiler]

Just a theory though. :smiley:

Indeed, now that’s how you do a budget-saving clip show and make it worth watching!

Absolutely, I couldn’t agree more!

Plus, I’ve noticed lately how much I’m enjoying Donna as the doctor’s companion this season. this episode is yet another example of it.

Yeah it was hilarious in Confidential when Davies said they couldn’t afford to blow up the TARDIS because this was the “cheap episode” :smiley:
