Doctor Who - Partners in Crime + Excerpts from the script by Russell T. Davies
For the scene where the Doctor and Donna are reunited on either side of soundproof glass and thus have to mime their conversation, the script gave the lines Russell wanted Donna to act out, but he suggested Catherine Tate come up with the motions herself on the day of the shoot, so Catherine improvised her famous mime while filming.

“The Star Beast” was camp and corny as hell and emotionally devastating, just as Doctor Who should be.

When the Toymaker was recapping the sort of deaths of the Moffat era companions, I realize in hindsight they must have been very careful about how they phrased what happened to Bill, because Tennant could not have said "She survived. Her life was saved by her omnipotent lesbian space oil puddle crush" with a straight face. (Just to be clear I mean that as a compliment to the lesbian puddle. I appreciate plot points that seem earnest and heartfelt in the moment but sound ridiculous when you put them into words. That's what Doctor Who is all about).

the greatest tragedy of our time is the doctor who writers not following through on bad wolf rose tyler. oh she absorbed the time vortex and had the power of a goddess? well her alien boyfriend kissed it out of her so she’s normal now and there’s zero (0) lasting effects. BULLSHIT!!!! shout out to the fanfic writers who get it and write her physiology changing and becoming a time lord, or at the very least something not entirely human!!!! there was all that lead up to bad wolf, let her go crazy! let her have insane power!! bad wolf i love you you should have stuck around longer

i finally found the images to tell this story, so here it is:
last summer, my best friend/roommate and i were standing in our living room, just yelling "DONNAAAAAA", as one does, both thinking we were imitating the same show.
then suddenly i was like - "wait, are you doing tenth doctor or pierce brosnan?" and he was like "oh, i was doing tenth doctor" and i said "i was doing pierce brosnan!"
which might sound like nonsense to you, unless you've seen both season 4 of doctor who, and the 2008 classic film Mamma Mia.

processing. i can't believe they made david tennant even wetter and more pathetic. like that was a sopping wet man. a real scrungle of a guy. it's like if you took all the sadwetpathetic in the world and concentrated it. into one guy. and you thought they did that with ten but noooo it's been fifteen years there are new sadwetpathetic technologies. you can fit more in there

I've been active in the fandom for a very short amount of time but I have to say this:
If you think Ten holding onto Rose and mentioning her to his later companions was just RTD not wanting to let go of her you misunderstood the point of Ten's character.
I am neither defending how the show treated Martha nor am I saying that to some people it couldn't be frustrating. But it absolutely alines with Ten's character.
He was (as we like to repeatedly mention) born out of love for her. REALLY think about it. He EXISTS cause he loved her SO MUCH he died as Nine to save her and then turned himself into someone he felt she might be more attracted to. He's entire existence as Ten is FOR. ROSE.
And you can see that in season 2. He's more protective of her, shows more affection towards her. I mean, he told the fucking Devil she was his religion and was the only thing he believed in. When I say she was his everything I MEAN IT.
And then she was taken from him. And he did everything he could to talk to her one last time and she was gone forever. Imagine how DEVASTATING that was. To have all that stolen from you.
So it would be weirder if he never mentioned her again. His religion, his Fortuna, his reason for existing. He never moved on because he was created FOR HER.
So in conclusion - stop clowning.

until i recently read posts on here about how there is an inherent queerness to the doctor and rose's relationship in how it's unspoken and filled with yearning that i'd never really considered that element, despite knowing for ages that RTD is gay but. man. it's just reframed a lot of the series for me, like the idea that you have this lonely man who's just watched his people die and is self-destructive and misanthropic and traumatised and he can love again and he wants to but it has so many risks.
but especially S3 and how it adds even more weight to the doctor's grieving widower status. how he tells martha that he and rose were together but martha refers to rose as a friend to tallulah; the fact that he can only say they were together once she is gone; how the only other person that both can feel how he feels but also understands the depth of his feelings is jack, a queer man himself. and I've been thinking to myself lately oh, it's ok, the doctor and rose probably accidentally got married on at least one planet or something but also the point is that there was no official title that could convey to people the extent that they meant to each other, that the doctor can really only tell donna that rose was his friend even though it is so wholly inadequate and she comes to see that by the end of the episode (and martha too of course). how people who saw the doctor and rose together assumed they were a couple, like on krop tor, but once there's no more physical evidence of the relationship it becomes more vague (and simultaneously clearer).
anyway something about how christopher eccleston said he based his portrayal of nine on RTD and something about RTD saying that his husband is "in every good man i write now" and how the doctor and ruby seeing each other in the club mimics his first meeting with his husband aka the one moment he would use a time machine to go back to hmmm
