Doctor Who: “The Journey’s End”(series 4 finale)
SPOILERS……
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!!!!!! It was a WHO family get together to help save the universe from pesky Daleks! Rose, Martha, Sarah Jane, Donna, Captain Jack, Gwen and Ianto(and more friends)! It was riveting I tell you! The Daleks captured the Tardis with the Doctor being summoned out and Donna locked inside! The Tardis was then sent into the fire! Donna opened the Doctor’s Hand(in the canister). Its essence was absorbed into Donna which we soon learn made her half time lord- half human and unleashed a copy of The Doctor as well, who is half human. Donna starts talking like the Doctor, energetic, excited and scientifically brilliant. The Dalek that answers to Dalek Kaan(forgot his name) engineered the Reality Bomb which basically was meant to annihilate all but the Daleks. The Doctors and the gang were able to reverse the process and save the universe. Next order of business was to drop off Rose in the alternate reality she was previously trapped in so as not to upset the fabric of time. It turns out then that the Doctor that was part human with only one heart allowed her to be with the Doctor, because he would grow old with her. Later it is learned that “Doctor Donna” was unsafe being part Doctor so the knowledge she had gained and the memories of her and the Doctor had to be wiped, which I thought was a cruel necessity(maybe not necessary, Doctor Donna was a keeper). The Doctor told her parents that they absolutely cannot tell her anything about all that she’s done(any recollection would kill her), the times that she traveled the stars and saved the universe-millions will remember her but she cannot. I loved the goodbye when Donna’s dad told the Doctor that every night he would look up at the stars and think of him on her behalf, so moving…
