One of the marked differences between Classic Who and New Who is the role of the Doctor to his companions. Companions of the Doctor have always been made better people because of the Doctor, but in Classic Who, the Doctor was more of a father figure and mentor to his companions rather than New Who’s companions who are treated more as potential romantic companions or at the very least lifelong travel companions. I don’t think there’s anything particularly wrong with the more emotionally charged New Who, but as i watched the series four finale this past weekend, it made me realize how Russell’s more emotional treatment of New Who over the past four years corners some of the writing into a path that’s hard to wrestle away from.

“You know there’s a rift in Cardiff, right? Yeah you do, you’ve been there. Well, it’s there, right, is there and it’s not supposed to move, BUT!”, he said this raising his index finger “ sometimes, just sometimes something goes wrong and the rift moves a bit and it messes up, dropping something that shouldn’t be there, BUT!” , he continued again, “it doesn’t necessarily have to be something that we can see, sometimes it’s between us, in the air...”

I'm Spanish and had to deal with a Microsof Word that didn't want to correct my mistakes, so sorry for them. Also my style is quite simple because as I'm not native English, dialogues are ok with me but narration and descriptions don't come easily. I tried my best.

See you there!
There were so many brilliant things in this episode, there are too many to mention. But, without spoiling anyone - Catherine Tate, you have outdone yourself. If there was any doubt about your acting ability before, there isn't now. David Tennant was as brilliant as always, but I wanted to single out Catherine specifically.
Now, here's my review to add to the millions of others!

“Okay?!” He asked, sharply flinching back as a bullet nearly grazed off the tip of his nose. He pulled her down closer to the ground.
“I think they’re after me!” Lois shouted.
“How did you deduce that?!”
She looked to the brick on which there were initials blackened in with permanent marker. L.L. “Wild guess?!” She said.
He looked to the brick and nodded, “Oh, there we go.”)

The above 5-part video contains spoilers for the emotional rollercoaster that is Series 4, some strong language in the last two parts, and was inspired by this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkYDVpBxXI was kinda creative again… but the last episode of „Doctor Who“ Season 4 just „made me“ creative and I had to make icons out of it… they are, like I wrote, from 4x13 and from the Confidental, because the kissing scene lasted much longer in the confidental ;-) As always, I hope, you like my work!

Whom would they be?
My vote goes to Claire Rushbrook (Ida Scott) and David Tennant.
Or Derek Jacobi (Professor Yana) and John Simm (The Master).
Really, many choices to pick from.

All types of graphics makers are welcome, from the new to the experienced. Don't worry if you think your graphics arn't good enough, sign up and give it your best shot. Practice makes perfect, after all!

I'm just wondering if anyone who has read through the series could do me a favour and give some idea (two lists would be ideal, but time-consuming - I understand) of which books are 'skippable' and which aren't. Basically I want to know if there are any stand-alone novels which don't contribute at all to the ongoing story of The Eighth Doctor, so that I can make a buying list accordingly.
Thanks in advance! :)
