I liked it muchly. Love all the references to Sarah-Jane, Martha and Torchwood. Don't we all need the Doctor so much!
The episode can now be seen here, here, here, and here
And if people are questioning how come the Earth even existed since there was no one to save the world from the Pyroviles/Daleks/Carrionites/Gelth/all other aliens from past episodes... all I have to say is Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey.
The trailer for next week looked so good I'll probably end up taking it to teeny tiny pieces pretty soon, with pictures and pretty things.
Hooray!
I've never been certain what 'squee' is, but I'm sure I'll do it as much as the next guy today.
ReplyDeleteI think its a little high pitched noise of excitement... not really screaming or shrieking, but still making that kinda sound when you feel you heart is going to burst, and your head is going to explode from excitement/joy etc.
ReplyDeleteSomething like that...
I was just wondering...
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the interview with Billie Piper on the Dr Who website? Only I thought if you had, it might be up here.
Yes! Just three more hours!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait! :P
you know, i'm not sure whether it's good or bad to live in the five hours behind...on one hand, I only have to wait until about 3:00 my time, but on the other hand, you guys still get to see it before me...
ReplyDeleteEither way, one of my worst fears is that rootforum1 goes on vacation.
Interesting to note that "turn right" was displayed several times in the Sontaran Strategy... wonder if "turn left" has anything to do with that? Parallel universe perhaps?
ReplyDeleteThere was a trailer on GMTV aswell.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Noel Clarke has confirmed being Series 5 companion! Wow! Anyway, wonder if River Song is there aswell? BTW no.2, Jess, you forgot the question: And What is on Donna's back? I think Some sort of Time Beetle!
I'll be "squeeing" a lot in about one and half hours just before Turn Left starts... then I'll go ever so quiet and worry about the future for Rose, the Doctor and Donna... and of course the rest of the universe, lol.
ReplyDeleteNoel Clark as series 5 companion? Can't see how that would happen - wouldn't like it if it did.
Yeah. Don't want Noel Clarke as a companion.
ReplyDelete>>Jess, you forgot the question: And What is on Donna's back? I think Some sort of Time Beetle!<<
ReplyDeleteWell, I didn't ask that question since we sort of know its a Time Beetle! And theres a throwaway line at the end of the episode that likens the beetle to the Trickster from SJA (who is practically the same as the Black Guardian from classic Who)
But thats not really important.
Oh God no! Please don't make Mickey the companion for Series 5, Steven Moffat! (yeah, like he's reading this). I don't hate Noel or Mickey or anything, I just don't like his character that much. I mean, sure, he was helpful and all, but he just let his girlfriend run off with some guy she just met, and then he still wanted her after being suspected and accused of murdering her because she disappeared for a year, and he didn't really try to stay hooked up with Rose. Plus, it would make more sense to make River Song companion because he already introduced her, and he could do things with her however he wanted, instead of having to have her background limited by what RTD has already given us. Oh, and I can't wait! I just have to wait about an hour or two after Turn Left airs in the UK and then watch it on youtube! SQUEE!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait! You guys in the UK are watching right now! (grumble grumble). I hope you're enjoying it! I can't wait until tonight when I get home and get to watch!
ReplyDeleteWait, Mickey???? Companion???? No. Can't picture it. No way.
Next week looks absolutely incredible!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm with the rest of you all. Mickey doesn't seem to add much to the story and gums up the works. Mickey just doesn't play well off of The Doctor's character. He just seems to get in the way. Like you're constantly tripping over him.
ReplyDeleteFor you all in the UK who have already seen the episode ;P
ReplyDeleteBut, I'm right behind you on youtube.
The ending of this episode has left me breathless. I mean it, I can't BREATH! I can't wait until next week!
ReplyDeleteGreat episode!!
ReplyDeleteActually, the greatest thing about it was the end!!
Though, it wasn't better than the Master's revealing, as RTD promised us...can't wait though!! :)
HARRIET JONES WAS IN THE TRAILER 4 THE STOLEN EARTH! She's now a blond...which makes sense, coz you gotta be thick working 4 the Daleks!!
ReplyDeleteBAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF
ReplyDeletesorry, couldn't help it...
Great episode, great ending and great trailer...
Omg Torchwood sj luke
ReplyDeleteJudoon
I don't think it will happen, but I'd love Mickey as a companion.
ReplyDeleteWe're all gonna die of excitement!
ReplyDeletecan you help what's Bad wolf, I have seen the first episode, but what exactly is bad wolf,
ReplyDeletethe connection between rose and the doctor, dalek war? What
I Just noticed, Jack's holding Ianto's head! He's dead!
ReplyDeleteoh my gods and goddesses! what a corker of an episode and so many involved, didnt know gwen and ianto would be in it! and those two kids from sarah jane adventures or whatever its called. That episode made me realise how much i love rose andthe doctor together, so much so i see them as real people, gosh i sound like a trekkie of the DW kind. I dont want this series to end and certainly dont want to see the end of Rose as a character, shes too good a one to be resolved in 2 episodes.
ReplyDeletebad wolf iam guessing is like tardis (i would like to think they havent given Rose superhuman powers for all of time) code for end of the universe....and filling in a blank obviously with the tardis canabalised it did not warn the doctor with BadWolf and the Master.
ReplyDeleteAmazing episode but my alcoholic mother ruined it for me as she could not get it into her head that they couldnt kill off the doctor staing " because his persona is too big". No matter how many times i retold her why he's not actually dead it was just in this episode and then explaining the story a number of times, she still couldnt accept it. Then after explaining that timelords basically need to choose to rejuvinate she then goes "well they (she means the writer) wouldnt kill the doctor as his persona his too big".,.....right back to sqaure one, really do hate her at times.
"can you help what's Bad wolf, I have seen the first episode, but what exactly is bad wolf,
ReplyDeletethe connection between rose and the doctor, dalek war? What"
Very good question. We aren't exactly sure. But in series 1, Rose absorbed the heart of the TARDIS and spread those words throughout the universe to warn the Doctor about the Daleks.
I also loved the bit about with "he's got amazing hair....infact really amazing hair" (or something like that)
ReplyDeleteobvious taken from the fan kingdom- one fan on the firday night project asked if she could rub his hair or something
OMG!
ReplyDeleteTRCHWOOD!!!
DALEKS!!!
DAVROS!!
HUNDREDS OF DALEK SHIPS!!!
I CANT WAIT IM GONNA DIE OF A HEART ATTACK IM THAT EXITED
If you look in this trailer @14 sec you can see davros' hand switching something on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dk7UfF_g_4&fmt=15
ReplyDeleteSo, was it Davros behind the Hub door? I paused it half a dozen times and still can't decide. Must go back and look at pictures, but it seemed like it!
ReplyDeleteAnd wow, *everyone's* around for the two-parter. That's a lot of people!
The last 30 seconds were by far the best of it. There was oodles of squeeing, that's for sure!
bad wolf = Rose Tyler basically.
ReplyDeleteand if rose ever came back, it would mean the end of the universe, as it would ripe apart the fabric of time and space.
So it means the end of the universe as Rose has came back . .
Or something like that :P
Behind the hubdoor is a normal Dalek not Davros.
ReplyDeleteOMG. DAVROS WAS IN CONFIDENTIAL. AND YOU COULD SEE HIM!!!!!!!!! RIGHT AT THE END.
ReplyDelete^I SAW THAT TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!!
ReplyDeleteThey wheeled out the full loud Doc music for the ending. Adds so much suspense to it.
ReplyDeleteRose was overly subtle in trying to contact the Doctor in every episode (cringeworthy as he always turned round at the wrong time), yet she made up for it at the end this episode - the way the Police Box sign had changed to Bad Wolf - hilarious! Nobody could miss that!
Doctor who confidential was very interesting this week... RTD said that things like the bees disappearing, planets gone and medusa cascade will all reappear in the final. He also said something about the TARDIS blowing up in a couple of weeks and a very short clip of davros was shown.... the excitement is getting a bit too much now :)

RTD in "another decent script" shocker.
ReplyDeleteAs for the folk saying Mickey wouldn't make a good compainion... Well, after Tate's appearance in the xmas special I was all for not bothering to watch this current series at all. Hated her in the xmas special (and don't much like her comedy show either), and I thought it would ruin the show this year, but she ended up impressing me and I'm glad I kept watching.
So, if Mickey really is joining (and I kinda doubt it to be honest) I'd be more than willing to see how it tuns out before making a judgement.
"I Just noticed, Jack's holding Ianto's head! He's dead!"
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. He isn't dead. There just having another one of those Torchwood hugs.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteShut up. We're high on Doctor Whoness
ReplyDeletewhen did you see that jacks holding Ianto's head?
ReplyDeletein the preview of next week?
If everybody dies of the Torchwood team, I can understand why there are only 5 episode of Torchwood next episode :)
"Don't worry. He isn't dead. There just having another one of those Torchwood hugs."
ReplyDeletehugs... well if thats what you want to call it...
but seriously pause the trailer at 17 seconds. there is a planet/moon thing in the sky just behind the ship. what is it, i wonder?
>>HARRIET JONES WAS IN THE TRAILER 4 THE STOLEN EARTH! She's now a blond...which makes sense, coz you gotta be thick working 4 the Daleks!!<<
ReplyDeleteI still don't see WHY she'd be working for the Daleks. It just doesn't seem like the character to do something to endanger the earth like that.
Are we sure that rumor has been confirmed? I mean, her just being in the trailer doesn't really cut it as proof, does it?
maybe The lost moon of poosh?
ReplyDelete"but seriously pause the trailer at 17 seconds. there is a planet/moon thing in the sky just behind the ship. what is it, i wonder?"
ReplyDeleteThe ship is either a Dalek or Adipose mothership. If it's a Dalek ship, we're probably on earth, which makes it... the moon? If it's an Adipose ship, we could be at the Shadow Proclamation, which means I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about! Cheers.
what does the voice say at the end of the Next Time clip? I'm sure it is Davros but i can't understand what he is saying!
ReplyDeleteAccording to the subtitles it
ReplyDeleteDALEK CACKLING
Its an evil laugh by a Dalek. I'm pretty sure its Harriet Jones in Dalek form. And the smokey thing in the next time which the Daleks are around is the Human to Dalek converter.
ReplyDeleteThe CGI for next week looks blockbuster-worthy.
ReplyDeletewhat does the voice say at the end of the Next Time clip? I'm sure it is Davros but i can't understand what he is saying!
ReplyDeleteHe's laughing. Since Daleks don't laugh it probably is Davros yeah.
BAD WOLF? BAD WOLF BAD WOLF BAD WOLF, BAD WOLF! BAD WOLF BAD WOLF!?
ReplyDeleteWilf wields a cricket bat. (can't really see why but it could happen)
ReplyDeleteDavros has been harvesting bees into a new army of Daleks. ( well there is something about bees but i don't think that's it)
The Daleks know the identity of a certain former Prime Minister. (the master i suppose)
Captain Jack becomes angry at Paul O'Grady's effect on Ianto Jones. (campness? though i don't really think jack would see that as a problem)
A certain body part in a jar is bubbling.(ooh the hand!)
A Dalek exterminates the Torchwood pterodactyl. (no not myfanwye!!!)
The fate of a character from 'Voyage Of The Damned' is revealed.(professor... cant remember his name?)
Wilf was banned from using a webcam as there were suspicions over what he might use it for.( emm... no idea)
Project Indigo holds the key to salvation.(yes)
The Doctor's daughter Jenny is trapped near a black hole, but K-9 is sent to rescue her. (well did sarah jane ever say why k-9 was at a black hole?)
A Dalek speaks to Mr. Smith. (we talking about the computer, or the doctor?))
The Time War was 'time locked', or so thought The Doctor. ( dunno. whats time locked? does that mean it can be undone?
Time locked I guess it means that you can't go back to the timewar. And the former PM could be Harriet Jones.
ReplyDelete" And the former PM could be Harriet Jones"
ReplyDeleteyes but the daleks know who it is?
why would they need to know? it could be the master because after all he was disguised as harold saxon
OKAY it's 4:32 WHERE'S MY WHO?!
ReplyDelete"Wilf wields a cricket bat. (can't really see why but it could happen"
ReplyDeleteConfirmed to be true thanks to next time trailer.
"OKAY it's 4:32 WHERE'S MY WHO?!"
ReplyDeleteAmen, I'm dying here!!!
Does anyone know why Who isn't posted to youtube yet? It's 1:10 am here. I WANT WHO!
ReplyDeleteYou'd be surprised how long it takes to cut it into parts, upload it and for the YouTube servers to put it on search. I'm sorry, best thing is to wait till tomorrow.
ReplyDeletepoor, poor americans (and elsewhere)
ReplyDeletei feel for you, i do. how can you stick knowing that everyone else has seen it! ahh i couldnt do it!
I’ll react backwards, there will be SPOILERS for turn left.
ReplyDeleteThe Trailer: GWEN!!!!! AND ALL OF TORCHWOODY GOODNESS!!!!!! Come on Jack, don’t be useless.
I heard a Dalek laughing?? Or was that Davros…?
Torchwood is back, SQUEEE! (Yeah, I’m gonna do that a lot)
I think I saw Harriet Jones and a Red Dalek, so that’s true!!! Sweet…
---Actual Episode---
OMG, RED!?!??! Cannibalized TARDIS with reference to the end of the Universe? Uh oh…
I’m useless as a Wholigan. When Rose said “Two words” I was thinking, “Davros Lives” or “Missed You” and not “Bad Wolf” Which was obvious. But seeing “Bad Wolf” everywhere with that music was so UNBELIVEABLY fanwanky.
Ugh, is he gonna EAT the beatle??
[the rest of the episode can be divided into one of the following reactions at various points]
*ROSE! SQUEEE!!
*OMG, they killed {Martha, SJS, SJS’s companions, Jack/Gwen/Ianto, etc}
*Love you, Donna.
My only unhappiness about this episode was that there was no Ross. : ( The rest of the episode was PURE GOLD.
PS: Rofl, most of America is dead. Such a perfect ending for us Yanks. Oh wait, damn, it’s not permanent.
PPS:
Donna: "Were you and he...?"
Rose: "..."
URG!!!! ANSWER THE QUESTION!!
i was just thinking about this and it occurred to me that there is a slight inconsistency ...didn't the doctor say in VotD that if the titanic crashed into the earth it would destroy the entire earth? yet RTD begs to differ with himself!?!?!
ReplyDeleteAnother plothole, if the doctor never met Donna he never went to Pompeii never defeated the Pyrovile thus earth should be destroyed much earlier. (Other then that great episode!)
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen it yet, but still: Yay for pretty pics! :D
ReplyDeletetry this site instead
ReplyDeletehttp://www.surfthechannel.com/show/television/Doctor_Who_%282005%29.html
i found a flaw in this story:
ReplyDeleteTARDIS is suppose to translate languages, does it have a problem with orental symbols or something?
HOLY CRAPOLA!!
ReplyDelete(If you haven't seen it yet, skip over this comment)
The Doctor seemed to know almost immediately it was Rose. As soon as the Doctor said "this woman said..." ol' Ten was immediately wide-eyes and firing off questions, especially when she mentioned "two words", before she even got the words out of her mouth.
And then with Bad Wolf everywhere...just...wow, holy crap.
where is part 4 and 5 on youtube?
ReplyDeleteI loved the ending of turn left. The doctor's face!!!! he must of realised it was Rose warning Donna and telling him the words bad wolf and if she is crossing worlds then that would mean the universe would implode!!! or maybe that's because of Davros. And did you watch the end of dr who confidential?? it showed about five seconds worth of footage of Davros and I'm pretty sure it was new.

ReplyDeleteAWESOME show,they get better each week.It was very well written,I liked the scene with the "Labor Camp" that got me,and was sad.
ReplyDeleteI like the Trickster better on Dr Who because he can be more darker.SJA is a good show but it's more for younger viewers.The Trickster could be more of a scarey threat on Dr.Who or Torchwood.
They should make the Trickster either The Master or The Valeyard from Trail Of A Time Lord.Isn't he supossed to be an evil regeneration of the Dr. between his 10th and 12th regeneration?
They could have the Doctors severed hand play a part in his creation.Just a thought....
Here's a theory of mine: A lot of people are talking about how Bad Wolf symbolizes the end of the universe, at least it SEEMS like it does in the episode because of how it's all presented. I personally really don't think that Bad Wolf has anything to do with the end of the universe. I think it was just some badly timed events and some tricky dialogue (obviously on purpose though). What we have here is two different things happening, Rose is coming back and the supposed 'end of the universe'. Obviously Rose is coming back BECAUSE of that, but the Doctor can't really know that yet. I think that he was excited when he saw Bad Wolf, yes, but as soon as he walked into the Tardis and saw the red he forgot about Bad Wolf for a split second, because the red (which is signaling the end of the universe) was a much bigger deal! Honestly, I don't think it has a connection to Bad Wolf, we have no reason to, since all we know that it does (from past experience) is bring the Doctor and Rose back together. I also don't think it means the end of the universe because if Rose was going to make them collapse, it probably would have happened by now. The Doctor also knows that Rose wouldn't be stupid enough to make them collapse on purpose.
ReplyDeleteSo yeah, thats my idea, what do you think? I guess we really won't know until next week!
AAAAA! Just adding more squueeee!!! Just finished watching and screaming :) Way tops the Master's come back, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteFunny, I didn't think of 'Bad Wolf' as last words, but during the episode I kept thinking that it's not Rose, it's Bad Wolf, just because she was so odd, superpowerful Rose, somehow didn't quite click.
Of course, they still haven't explained anything as to how she travels or how did she know about the need to fix the timeline.
Again, if she's a Bad Wolf than she'd know about what happens with/without the Doctor.
Am I the only one who picked up on the Cloister Bell ringing at the end of the episode? The Cloister Bell ringing means "IMMINENT DISASTER!!!!" for the Doctor.
ReplyDeletenow, why would the TARDIS be red at the end? shouldn't it be mauve?
ReplyDelete(empty child)
Yeah, I heard the Cloister Bell as well (the second time I watched it).
ReplyDeleteOkay The doctors hand bubbling liquid etc besides doesn't red stand for paradox machine?And if Bad Wolf is said it might mean Rose & Daleks and whenever Rose is around its a big thing with Daleks ever since DALEK S1E6
ReplyDeleteI don't think it stands for paradox machine, I think it's just an ominous signal of really, REALLY bad stuff about to happen to time and space. Which, of course, being cannibalized to become a paradox machine certainly qualified. There may be a paradox going on, but the TARDIS isn't a paradox machine this time.
ReplyDeleteIf you notice, there's none of the contraptions the Master used to turn the TARDIS into a paradox machine attached to the console. Everything looks normal except for the red light.
Just me or did Rose sound... odd, in this episode?
ReplyDeleteA bit goofier? Oh well.
Also did you notice in the next time trailer the American guy said
ReplyDelete"Ladies and gentlemen, we are at war" just like Jack did in Parting of the Ways?
Just a thought...
Ok, so as much as I loved this episode, RTD seems to be having random memory confusion, or something.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, Rose acts like 'Oh, yea, I meant to go through the void and end up on 'real' Earth.'
But, then [was it in the park? Or the alley-way?] Donna asks 'what was that, fireworks, or something?' and Rose replies:
'I don't know, I was just walking along the street and...' [So, it's not the parallel Torchwood?] which implies that she can't control when she 'hops.'
But. Wait. Look back to PIC, she faded when she wanted to, or so it seemed. And the echo.
Seemed like she was inside someplace tiled, or a hard surface, very unlike concrete or asphalt she was on- unless she had on stilettos.[most likely not, so my guess is she was in the Parallel TW.]
So, maybe she can control going back to Pete's world, but can't control how she gets to our world? Or does it have something to do with the whole 'Donnna's Alternate Reality' thing?
Am I over-anylizing [sp?] this?
And, [last thing] how does Bad Wolf mean the end of the world when it didn't mean that last time?
aliens form past episodes and even bug is on Donna s back
