fajrdrako | Doctor Who evening... (Reply)

Exhausted. Happy. Went to Pat and Sandi's after work to see Doctor Who; it was so hot I arrived at their apartment like a jellyfish and Sandi and I sat in semi-conscious exhaustion before we cooled down enough to do anything, like talk, or eat. Pat seemed to have more stamina.

Beulah joined us and we watched The Idiot's Lantern (rubber soles). I'd only seen it once; it was fun to see again. I do like Tommy, and the fall of his father. I like the mother's satisfaction in her independence, and the way Rose and the Doctor push Tommy to remain a friend of his father. I never got used to Rose's skirt. I loved the way Rose handled Eddie Connelly - by ruthlessly bullying him just like he bullied others. I love the Doctor's anger when the Wire attacked Rose, and the huge hug he gives Rose when she returns, face intact. I also rather love the chase/climb up the broadcasting tower.
