He'd need one I think, he's more camp than a row of tents!

He'll be on another prog soon.......taking tests to see if he was born gay like he thinks, or if he became gay as he gew older!

That would actually be an interesting show.....personally I think people are just born that way...they do say there is a difference in the brain of gay people don't they??

I'm not sure on all that, the whole idea of him being tested for being born gay sounds like some kind of mad experiment...

well I suppose its the whole genetics or environment argument really or a mix of both? I have heard before that they found many gay men to have brains very like women's...and I don't just mean manipulate and bitchy

I'm kidding all you ladies on here

What a finale! And I've been proved right, I thought that he couldn't possibly die after David Tennant had already signed on for some specials ( The Christmas one looks ace). The whole 'Donna as half Time Lord' thing was a bit confusing but I thought it was cool to have two Doctors in a less conventional sense- the old series did several episodes where two or more previous incarnations came back to help out the newer one. And I didn't expect Dalek Caan to betray Davros and his fellow Daleks, although his reasoning was sound enough for doing so as seeing through time must be a massive help in second guessing events!

It was also really clever how intially Davros was set up as the leader, but it seems the Supreme Dalek really took overall command and Davros was little more than a figurehead. Somehow I doubt that he died when the Crucible ship exploded though- they've seemingly 'killed him' then brought him back many times.

Seeing everyone together aboard the Tardis was cool too, and seeing them all at the controls explained a lot about the design of the machine. My only complaint is that the 'love scene' with Rose and the Doctors was a bit cheesy, I know what I'd have told her though

A cracking finale, and its hard to see how they'll top it in future.

I expect Davros will appear again sometime because I don't believe they've actually killed him off. He's such a big part of the "Whoniiverse" that I bet he managed to escape somehow or he'll be back in some time resetting episode! I liked Caan and his funny little laugh, he seemed very mischievous

I thought it was brilliant how they suggested a companion would die but it turned out to mean something totally different regarding Donna....very clever

So does it mean that Donna has gone now........or will they find some way to bring her back? Anything's possible! If she has gone for good, then it's a shame because I grew to really like Donna

I hope Bernard Cribbins character features again somehow......he was how you'd imagine a grandad should be!

I thought Gwen and Ianto seemed a bit surplus to requirements....they didn't have all that much to do apart from the end, when they all came together to get rid of the Daleks. I laughed when Rose ended up with the other Doctor.......he was kind of like a consolation prize cause she couldn't have the "real" one

All in all, it was a good finale to an excellent series.........roll on the Christmas special

It was a good finale, but I am getting a bit sick of Doctor Who. Every episode, for weeks and weeks, has been emotionally draining and made me cry. All the episodes recently seem to look deeply into the feelings of everyone and there have been a lot of references to WW2 and the Nazis e.g. the episode when the Italian family were taken away because they weren't English; the Daleks [who are basically Nazis anyway] shouting 'Exterminieren' as they swept through Germany. Ugh, it sends a shiver down my spine.

Lets have some kick ass episodes to make us cheer instead [like the Sontaran ones].

I really enjoyed the finale too but again Davies throws alot of logic out the window in order to keep everything happening quickly and to fit it all in.... The regeneration crisis was immediately solved by quickly moving all that energy to the severed hand he keeps and I also found the whole Donna touching it and somehow activating a full body regeneration and
ultimately becoming a 'Doctor Donna' confusing aswell....I was by the end asking who had done what? Had Caan magically locked the Tardis Doors? Did he make her meet the Doc again? Another thing too that I wondered...when Donna was having trouble keeping control of all the knowledge at the end because the regeneration went both ways and made her half time Lord would that not mean that the other Human Timelord hybred with Rose not have the same problems too?
As for the Ostehagen Key...I felt slightly disappointed with...a few Nuclear bombs at the center of the earth to blow everything up....like did it really get that far? Have these people ever heard of resistance movements/ Freedom Fighters before?

talk about not giving the human race a chance and don't get me started on that necklace thingy of Sarah Jane's?..What was that? Its like the writers all got together and said okay we need to give this group something to barter with and quickly and someone suggested this necklace bomb idea

...I also believe many of the returning characters did suffer mainly due to the volume of people...and yep Ianto and Gwen did seem underused...as was Mickey and Jackie (although I wasn't complaining with the latter

)
I did laugh when the Doc didn't want her at the Tardis controls though

...
Three performances for me stood out.. Tennant as always, Bleach was brilliant as Davros..I thought he played the part with real venom and evilness..I really rate the guy and last but not least Catherine Tate who I will definitely miss now....I really felt she came on in leaps and bounds as an actress and a character in only one season particularly as I hated her in Runaway Bride....and for me she was my favourite assistant he has had...as there was none of this lovey dovey crap

All in all it was all good fun and I highly enjoyed it....but I did have to suspend my logic for a while as the episode did have the distinct impression of being made up as it went along...though I find alot of Davies stuff like this
