Doctor Who 2x13 Reaction | Doomsday

[@omnipotent_arcanis]

TO WHOM EVER SPOILED THIS FOR HER: One of the reasons I love this channel is that while I can never watch these episodes for the first time again I do get to watch her reaction. And while this is a different felling I get to enjoy her joy, sadness and curiosity of which is the next best thing. So I say on to you and anyone else that wants to spoil anything: be better. It is always nice to be in the know. It feels good to have that power. But when you ruin things, no matter how small it seems to you, it can have consequences for others.

[@emaayan]

"be better" reminds me of david tennant's "GROW BETTER.."

[@cooluncle4242]

The same thing happened to Ugowatch, who is at the same point. Some people get overexcited, and some people are idiots.

I mean, every season has a moment like that, be it companion leaving or regeneration

[@ChibiHoshiDragon]

I also cried after first watch. This and the end of the Travelers Series. But I can since take rewatches of both without breaking again. However, I will still cry during rewatches of the Fringe Series Finale And the Animation Nimona As well as the movie the Green Mile

This was fun, of course, given how very arrogant both races have been since forever. But I still think the sickest burn was when the Dalek in season one said to the doctor after his angry rant about the last Dalek ending its own existence to rid the universe of their filth: _"You would make a good Dalek..."_ ;-]

[@reverance_pavane]

"This is not war. This is pest control." One of my favourite all time Dr Who lines.

NO SPOILERS, YOU BUNCH OF MUPPETS! 🤣

[@bludfyre]

Aren't companion exits/hirings announced early like Doctor ones? IIRC, the end of Tennant's run and the beginning of Matt Smith's were known prior to the episode where it happens airing.

[@Blackbaldrik]

​@@bludfyre I believe so yes. Still not an excuse to spoil. I watched the series as it was airing and never saw any of those announcements. At first because I didn't know they existed, and later deliberately to avoid getting spoiled.

[@VonPatzy]

@@bludfyre Only because the culture digs for that info and in the internet age it’s impossible to hide so BBC tries to control the release of casting news as best they can. Just because people were hungry for info between seasons 20 years ago doesn’t mean it makes for a better experience to know what episodes coming up will be regeneration or companion swaps. Historically spoiled production info is not part of canon.

[@AndrewHalliwell]

Stop spoiling about the Muppet episode.

[@ravynbr]

Companions are like Doctors. We love them when they're with us, hate when they leave us, swear that the next one can't POSSIBLY be as good as the last and then fall in love with them all over again. Every. Time.

[@ImBigDave79]

We all have our favourites but we can still appreciate the next ones

[@mattperiolat]

Truth is there will always be one we latch onto, for whatever reason, one who will always be special. Sure, each Companion is great and unique and fantastic in their own right, but there will always be one that is unique to a viewer. For some, Rose checks those boxes. For some, it’s yet to come. For me? Not telling. Yet.

She was really locked in for that scene. So heart wrenching 😭

[@thefridgefreezer]

This ending is perfectly set up by School Reunion as well, since we start to think about what the Doctor's life is like without a companion. And when Sarah Jane tells Rose that the life is worth it, even if they don't get the ending they want. So sad 😢

[@MizziProductions]

Exactly. If Rose hadn’t met the Doctor, she’d be living with Jackie in a flat, neither party satisfied with their lives, and neither party striving to do more. Now Rose and Jackie get a second chance with Pete, and a sense of purpose beyond their wildest dreams. It’s sad but they gained as much as they lost this way:

[@chazo1367]

Hell School Reunion also sets up The Girl In The Fireplace from the opposite spectrum, where instead of leaving someone behind, someone else leaves him behind because they died.

Jackie deserves a bit of happiness with a daughter like Rose. Always running off and bringing the end of the world back with her when she comes to visit.

[@thegentleartoffisticuffs6983]

My favourite line from this: "The one thing a Dalek can't do. Touch. Locked inside your metal cage. Completely alone" Which of course is how the Doctor ends up talking to Rose. Alone in his box. "No touch".

[@aryblack]

it's been so many years for me, and yet, too soon.

[@robertcathles]

Also the Doctor is burning up a supernova to say goodbye - when he said the Daleks were going to blow up the sun to open the Genesis Ark.

[@HuntingViolets]

Great observation!

[@JoeThornhill]

"I was there at the fall of Arcadia. Someday I might even come to terms with that". Because he says it with a straight face and I've never even seen war in person. It's hard to realize in the first dozen watches, just how big of a deal that horrifying moment of war must've been.

What a lovely reaction! So sorry you got spoiled, I hope people keep things spoiler free for the future! I’ve curated a full 2005+ Whoniverse marathon watch-order for a couple of friends before and I hate when people spoil stuff. This episode absolutely RUINED me when I first watched it on broadcast. The week of school waiting between parts was pure agony, and it just hits you in the gut when he doesn’t get to say it back to rose. And OMG the SASS between the Cybermen and Daleks, SO GOOD, haha!

[@Metzwerg74]

i think, thats why the doctor often picked on him and pushed him. the doctor sees all that is, al that could be, al that should be and everything, that must not happen... he saw, what mickey COULD be, so he pushed him to become, his best self, that the doctor already could see in him.... even if mickey himself could NOT see it in the beginning...

Murray Gold always delivers. There are three things that are always good about Doctor Who: 1. The TARDIS. 2. Whoever's playing the Doctor, I don't care what anyone says, they've never had a miscast. 3. Murray Gold's music. Actually I'll add a fourth: Nicholas Briggs' voice (voice of both the Daleks and Cybermen).

I know it would suck for her, but I honestly wish she just wouldn't read the comments at all until SEASONS/SERIES later. And if there's anything important she needs to know or something she missed, then a mod or whoever can copy/paste things to her. I just honestly wish all reactors would do that. Mods can't always keep an eye on the comments, but she CAN avoid it altogether. I'd MUCH rather her not be spoiled than have her interacting with the comment section personally. I don't understand the compulsion people have to ruin stuff for people, as it's the easiest thing in the world to just not talk about anything past the episode she's currently watching on YT but somehow people act like they have to literally stop themselves from doing it.. it's actually insane.

[@HuntingViolets]

@@LadyBeyondTheWall I like that she interacts in the comments, and I hate it when reactors have to stop doing that because people are spoiling things. I wish people would just stop it.

The battle you saw eventually comes to be known as "The Battle of Canary Wharf" and in the official report following the event, Rose is listed among the "missing, presumed dead" which is why she begins the episodes with the narration " my name is Rose Tyler, and this is how I died..."

[@ChrisCebelenski]

No Spoilers people! Sheesh. For this episode: Not really a bad ending for a companion - and all companions time ends, one of the tragedies of the Doctor's existence and not being able to connect excepting fleetingly. I didn't think about Rose in Torchwood in a parallel universe - interesting.

[@daveangel2991]

[@ConnorEllisMusic]

FFS why do people spoil it? Do they not want people to have the unspoiled experience they did.

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

"Unspoiled experience". That's funny given the current nature of internet genre discourse. So many complain about spoilers but then there are all the articles about leaks or speculation of casting lists and story details of upcoming movies and shows. I remain convinced that widespread speculation of story points was a big contributor to the disappointment of the last season of Game of Thrones and the disappointment in the Star Wars sequel movies and shows and Marvel movies and shows. People build up their expectations and when the story is different from their imaginations, they claim it is terrible. Or, as in the case of GOT, some speculation gets too close to the truth that the production team changes the story so they can still have their surprise even though the reason some can guess the ending is actually a testament to the fantastic storytelling to that point. It means the story makes sense. Another case is if someone mentions a story idea on a forum the writer or showrunner might see, there is now a potential legal issue. This has happened many times. When Babylon 5 was in production, the showrunner maintained a Usenet account to discourse with fans. One of his hard rules, even now, is "no story ideas". Of course, someone suggested an idea that was already planned to be a story. That suggestion delayed that story significantly because they now had to deal with potential legal issues. Thus I am distressed about story speculation online because that is an almost guarantee that story will not happen.

[@Lokeydin7]

She changed for the better on her travels but the only thing in her whole world was the doctor which isn’t healthy, She was losing her connections to others and even was willing to never see her mum or dad ever again.

People also use bad to mean sick in the uk “I’m feeling a bit bad today” = I’m a bit sick. So it is possibly it was translated differently in that universe.

Moll Flanders..I've got a distinct memory of Alex Kingston in a corset if I'm not mistaken 🤔👀

[@DavidSmith-cx8dg]

A bit less at times . What is called in historic fiction circles a bawdy romp .

That's the trouble with people commenting on stuff, they never realise just what can be a spoiler. And so their innocent little comment, assuming everyone knows about this thing to come, can ruin things. I remember being told some stupid throw away comment about a character not dying in a show I used to watch, the person telling me thought they were being so smart by "pretending" to give me a spoiler, but it not really being one. I then guessed what scenario would lead them to thinking about something as a spoiler and then twisting it into a "not a spoiler". So they spoiled it for me. To be fair to people, I don't think they fully grasp how good people can be at working out what the logic behind their comment can tell them. For instance, by saying Rose leaves at the end of this season it not only spoils the fact Rose is going to be written out of the show on the last episode, it also removes any fear for that character on any of the episodes prior to the last one. I resisted mentioning that Rose was not my favourite New Who companion because I realise the implication there is that there will be a different companion than Rose, and so what happens to her? For all I knew, you had no idea that Rose was not still the companion to this day.

That lets go let's go let's go tells me she was not prepared 😅

The Doctors' taunting of the Daleks reminds me of an interview with Richard Martin, who directed them in their earliest adventures. He described their hysteria as coming from a place where, trapped inside their casings, they were very nearly insane with claustrophobia. And wouldn't we all be if that's the only place you felt you could survive?

[@jeremymlad]

I do my best to only tell you spoilers out loud in my room. Otherwise I’m excited for you to see what’s next!

[@martinholt8168]

Russell Davies made it a point to end every season with a giant cliff-hanging WTF moment. Basically, he's telling the audience, 'the chapter is over, but never the story. It goes on.'

[@SorchaSublime]

Yeah, there was even a deleted scene for one at the end of series 4, but ig he felt like it would hit more if they skipped it for that moment

[@HuntingViolets]

Can we just stick to this episode and earlier?

[@jasonl8681]

to this day, Dalek Sec sassing the Cyberleader is one of the best scenes in the show, that doesn't mean anything else is bad, but it's just pure gold.

[@jeremyb5640]

So sorry someone spoiled Rose's exit for you. There's no need for people to post spoilers of any kind or to hint at what might might or might not be coming up in future episodes or seasons. In real time, we mostly knew when doctors and companions were going to leave/arrive because casting was formally announced in the press. I think many fans would prefer not to have known in advance though as it spoils the surprise. I'm really glad Rose and her extended family got such a dramatic and fitting send-off. After two lacklustre and forgettable episodes in 'Love and Monsters' and 'Fear Her', this two-parter was further evidence that Russell knows how to pull off a season finale. The sassy stand-off between the Daleks and Cybermen was great. It had to be one of those playground debates fans had as kids, who would win in a battle between the two! Other than the Torchwood theme running through the season, you also picked up on how Rose and the Doctor had let their guard down too often during Series 2. Running from adventure to adventure with giddy excitement, giving the impression they were indestructible. That finally came back to bite them in this dramatic battle at London's Canary Wharf. If you wanted to dip into Torchwood (the series) by the way, Season 1 started airing in October 2006, three months after "Series 2 of Doctor Who" (TM Angela) finished. Most of the episodes aired before the 2006 Doctor Who Christmas Special (the Torchwood two-part finale aired on New Year's Day 2007), but it's not essential. Meanwhile, the pilot episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures also aired on New Year's Day 2007! But the full first season didn't start until after Doctor Who Season Three. I hope that's helpful.

[@thepandorica1660]

I haven't seen the spoilers being talked about yet. Was it people saying they're excited for the new companion in Series 3 without thinking that by saying this it's basically confirming Rose would leave?

[@thane9]

I think I could watch that scene at Bad Wolf Bay a million times and I'd be in tears every last one. It's heartbreaking. I grew up watching in the late 70s and 80s so Tom Baker is "my" doctor along with Sarah Jane, but there's really something special about Rose.

[@fleason771]

I can finally tell you that Billie's last S2 scene shot was the end of "The Satan Pit" 🤯 If you rewatch the end sequence both David & Billie are very emotional & struggle to get through it as Billie talks about "dying in battle" before Tennant says "Then it lied" 😭😭 End of an era! Often in movies & TV shows they are filmed out of sequence due to location if some didn't know. This being the case

[@Agantyr23]

Just saw your Sandman review again. I'm thrilled when you meet some old faces again here in Doctor Who.

[@DaDunge]

time for cyberbullying, that is the bullying of the cybermen.

[@carolineskipper6976]

That scene on Bad Wolf bay- and the fantastic music score that goes with it - had us mourning for weeks back in the day! Anyone who wants cheering up after that - please go and look at the video by Ashens 'Cyberman Call Centre' which uses footage from the Dalek/ Cyberman diss-off in this episode hilariously (no spoliers, it only uses footage from this episode, and doesn't reference DW at all).

“Traveling does broaden the mind.”

[@clayforde4265]

Dammit!! I hate that someone spoiled that for you! Because I remember watching this for the first time and the emotional impact of Rose going away, was a very important part of the enjoyment. All I'm going to say is remind you of my first comment when you entered this world. Be prepared to be amazed, to laugh and to CRY! Again. Keep those tissues handy!

[@DaDunge]

8:20 The Daleks are a level 9 civilisation, these cybermen are a level 5 civilisation. the daleks aren't actually badmouthing the Cybermen they are just telling the truth as they see it.

[@johnniequinn3215]

Nope. still badmouthing as well.

[@anigerdraconia9335]

Oh, I love reminiscing about the Doctor with you. Your reactions are so similar to mine. It's an amazing feeling 🤗
