The End of Time - Part Two (S04E18)

Before the end of time storyline from last time comes to an end, it’s as awful and unworthy of the Davies/Tennant duo as the first episode was. It is only bearable thanks again to a few quieter moments (the conversation about weapons). Luckily it ends sooner than you might have expected (a thousand thanks!) and the entire closing part is devoted to nostalgic looking back and melancholic farewell with (not just) the Tennant and Davies era as such. And it works, a whole lot. So much so, that one asks oneself whether it really had to be preceded by about an hour and a half of excessive embarrassment. (06.01.2014)

The boulder in the belly is heavier than when I, as a child, was anticipating the final shot of Apache Gold – and the realization that thanks to the Russell T. Davies era, Doctor Who will be immortal. Number 10 is my Doctor. (11.09.2014)
