Mostly: *squee!* Mickey's off to Paris with Jacky-boy! The city of luuurve and romance. (I mean, honestly. What was that about his Gran needing him? Just an excuse to have hot gay sex with Jake Of The Wonderful Accent And Cutest Smile.)
Right, so perhaps we're a bit slash-oriented, Joey and me, but oh well. It was fun.
More seriously though: in the end, name-wise, he's Ricky. He's not going to have his gran call him Mickey. He IS Ricky, and Nine was right all along, and I love Nine, and I miss Nine.
I also love Ten, mind you. David is so very brilliant, I loved the way he played his huge speech to the Controller.
Quote of the episode (approx.): "What do I need a family for? I've got the world on my shoulders." Which is very reminiscent of many a conversation I've had with all of you fellow Who fans on the flist and. Yep. The day he breaks down under the pressure? Not gonna be pretty. There will be bloody bits of the Doctor's equilibrium plastered all over the walls.
Also, Rose is so frelling self-centered, hell. I say, good for Mickey, that he decided to stay. I was afraid they were going to kill him and Jake at some point. And I love the Doctor's parting "idiot" words.
Peter rocked 'til the very end, when he refused to hear what Rose had to say. And when she clang to Jackie going "you're alive! you're alive!"? *EYEROLL* OF COURSE SHE'S ALIVE. Good that they upgraded alternate!Jackie, though.
Also, Mrs. Moore rocked.
And, finally. What the FUCK was up with that "narrator" reading the script's indications at some point? Did anybody else get that? I think they put the wrong version of the episode up for grabs. Ugh. I particularly enjoyed the wind in Rose's long blonde hair.
As usual, I'll probably post some more sensible reactions after I've watched it again this week.
