Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor! (Spoiler Alert!)
Posted: Sun Nov 24, 2013 6:37 am
One of the best written Doctor Who stories ever.
The way all the Doctors generations came together to change what was the Doctor of the 21st Century's greatest regret could have been considered the cherry on the top but it was not.....
.. Seeing and hearing Tom Baker again, talking to Matt Smith flooded me with some very un Darthish emotions.
It reminded me how much that character meant to me as a boy, how much of that I still carry with me deep down.
I fucking cried tears of joy for the 2nd time in my whole life and while it was not up there with the 1st, the birth of my firstborn it was still very, very heavy and for that minute I was the 10 year old boy who loved that character so much that when he fell from the Eiffle Tower and regenerated into Peter Davidson, that I lost it as the end credits and theme song rolled.
When I went on the Doctor Who FB page, I was not alone in this at all.
Yes it was that good a show tonight.
