Not controversial, that's perfectly valid. I kind of think of it as a modern Five Doctors in the sense that it's a 'Greatest Hits' package, with - very much as you say - everything AND the kitchen sink! I guess it was supposed to be RTD's big sign-off before he & Tennant were 'persuaded to stay' for the Specials/Gap year.
Simon G@SHGB001 I miss Tennant still. He is the one I miss most along with Peter & Sylvester.
The Doctor and Donna arrive on... Earth.
Doesn't look very much like the walls of the universe are breaking down...
It never ends well for milkmen in Doctor Who...
50dw50@50dw50 milkfloat of doom!
Mark Walker@Mark_Walker milk floats always indicate something dodgy is going to happen.
Back in the TARDIS for a quick check... but there's a whole lot of shaking going on...
...and when they look out, the Earth is gone!
Isaac Dakin@IWhittakerDakin Why is the TARDIS left behind?
50dw50@50dw50 erm...

It's too heavy?
"Far across the universe"? In a galaxy far, far, away?
Martha looks out the window at UNIT HQ and the sky has changed...
The last 3 surviving members of Torchwood, and Sarah Jane's attic have also got dodgy sky trouble...
Cribbins!


And Rose does her best Thor impression to arrive in a flash of lightning! It is a bit Avengers, isn't it?

She'll have to be careful with those teeth.


She very obviously had them straightened, whatever she says.

Donna is afraid that her family may be dead.
The Doctor just doesn't know.
Ooh, the Doctor's taking her to the shadow proclamation!
The obligatory celebrity cameos this time round include Mr. Lalla Ward.
Some handwaving babble about why there's still an atmosphere from Torchwood's butler... blah...
There's some sort of giant space station on the way that isn't a moon. Some sort of Star... of Death!
A message starts coming through...

Rose does that wanker thing of saying "have one on me" without actually buying anyone a drink, the upshot of which is 'have one at your own expense but give me the credit'. Think it's a Southerner thing. What she means is "for me", not "on me".
Come on, sing along, you all know the words... "Exterminate... Exterminate..."
Dunno why Jack and Sarah give up so easy, their previous experiences of the Daleks have all been wins!

UNIT prepare for invasion in old New York...
How cool is the Supreme Dalek? See you can make them colourful and bigger without making them teletubbies!
Impressive on the outside, on the inside The Shadow Proclamation seems to be an underpass in some swimming baths where some Judoon are hanging out.

The Shadow Proclamation tell him that other planets have gone missing too...

"Pyrovillia is cold case..."
The lost moon of Poosh!
"Someone tried to move the Earth once before..."
UNIT plan to activate project Indigo. Whatever.
"Annihilate UNIT!"

Martha is entrusted with the Haagen Dazs key, and teleports away, despite Captain Jack's warnings...
Hang about, I know that voice...
In his lair, a metal gloved maniac throws a spotlight on an abomination. Average night in for the Supreme Dalek.
Donna starts to hear a heartbeat... and one of the Shadow Proclaimers tells her there was something on her back.




Follow those bees!

The Shadow Proclaimers want the Doctor to lead them into war. He doesn't really do the whole War thing any more.
The Daleks are rounding up humans onto the streets, exterminating people in the streets.

Wilf paintballs a Dalek, but "my vision is NOT impaired!"

Rose arrives with her massive weapon to give it some "come with me if you want to live!"


I think it was the "want to swap?" line that was Cribbins' ad lib.
After all the planets in the sky and the Dalek invasion, Sylvia *still* won't believe Donna's with the Doctor.
The Doctor arrives in the Medusa Cascade as the human race surrenders to the Daleks.
Harriet Jones skypes the secret society of companions, but Rose isn't invited.
Martha arrived at her mum's home
Captain Jack compliments Sarah Jane Smith. "Not now, Captain..."
Mark Walker@Mark_Walker Rose's jealousy is great 'who's she?'
Isaac Dakin@IWhittakerDakin Wow, even when the fate of the entire universe is at stake Rose still moans about Martha being contacted instead of her!

Harriet Jones, computer hacker. Yeah, right.
The companion cabal manage to get a call through to the Doctor.
The Doctor's dials 1471 to track the call back. Or something.

All the crazy rumours in these few series. RTD must surely have listened to the rumours that the blue suit Doctor was a 2nd.


The Doctor isn't so pleased to see Davros. He was supposed to have died in the first days of the time war...
...but he was rescued by Dalek Caan, who was driven insane in the process.



Each of the new Daleks is grown from a bit of Davros... lovely.
Mark Walker@Mark_Walker I liked that bit, was quite surprised at that slight grossness at Saturday teatime.
The Doctor and Rose run to be reunited...
...but a Dalek has other ideas, and the Doctor catches a blast!

...but a Dalek has other ideas, and the Doctor catches a blast!


They get him back to the TARDIS, because it's the law that the Doctor can only regenerate in the TARDIS now...
The Doctor's hand start's glowing...
The Daleks bear down on Sarah...
The Daleks bear down on Sarah...
...and enter the Torchwood hub...

"He's dying, and you know what comes next!" Yeah, the 11th Doctor. No wait, the 12th. Wait. Oh, sod this.
"Good luck, Doctor!"
"I'm regenerating...!" How's that for a cliffhanger!!




TTFN! K.
Coming Soon... Journey's End
