That fangirl's gathering ? WAS TOTALLY MADE OF PURE WIN.
We didn't sleep at all (except for
angeliksmall who abandoned us at 1 pm because she has NO STAMINA) so I'm pretty knackered right now but almost too much to actually go to bed XD
Last night's DW got various reactions from the group and while it was slightly less awesome than the last two, I liked it a lot.
I was a little worried that Helen Raynor wrote this one but it turned out much MUCH better than Daleks in Manhattan.
MARTHA'S RETURN WAS FABULOUS AND EVEN EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS \o/
She was all wise and mature and kicking arse... Until she fell into the sontaran's trap but I didn't mind because HELLO THAR EVIL!CLONE MARTHA. YOU IS V. V. V. HOT.
I *adored* her interactions with the Doctor. There was a nice dose of awkwardness at first, arguing and happiness to just be together again.
And I loved how Donna and her just clicked instantly and how she ended up giving her advice.
UNIT on the other hand, didn't do much for me in this which was disappointing, if not very unexpected. Hope it'll get better in the next one, though.
My favourite scene is definitely the exchange between Donna and the Doctor when he thought she was leaving for good XDDD He's SUCH a drama queen.
We had lots of great character moments but very little plot. It was just a set up for part 2. But those character moments totally made it worth.
The sontarans looked even sillier than their old school selves but you can give RTD credits for respecting a lot of the original stuff like their weapons, the design of their pods and the vent at the base of the neck.
Loved the little stunt with the tennis ball that the Doctor pulled off btw, that was so cool XD
The episode was over very quickly and I was quite frustrated by the time of the cliffhanger. So it was either a hit with me or I felt this way because the proper plot never developed in the first part and I kept on waiting for it to do so.
ANYWAY, I LIKED IT OVERALL.
EDIT : Yeah well UNIT did a little for me afterall because yes, I wouldn't mind some Doctor/Ross fics either like, AT ALL. *NOMS*
Freema was also adorable in the confidential <3
I luff her PASSIONATELY.
*off to crash in bed for a couple of hours*

By the way : JOHN BARROWMAN HAS BEEN UNOFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED FOR THE HUB. \o/
Now they'd better drag along Eve and Gareth's arses...

I'm happy you liked it since you were all 'DOES NOT WANT' before it aired ^^
ROSS NEEDS TO STICK AROUND. I'm waiting part 2 to see if it would be useless to upload my Ten/Ross icon XD
I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU ABOUT JOHN !! I'm tempted but it really depends on my school schedule :/
YOU FORGOT BURN.
