208 - 7 Nation Army of Ghosts/Doomsday Tripper

Okay, this “7” is a stretch but we made it work. Join Deb, Lynne, and Tansy as we dissect the rollicking, emotional, and devastating story duo of “Army of Ghosts” and “Doomsday”.

We give credit to 8 y.o. RTD (the obvious creator of the Dalek v. Cyberman smackdown) while calling out the emotional manipulation he inflicted upon both Jackie and Rose. But we all come together in our adoration Yvonne Hartman’s confidence (and tailoring) and Mickey Smith’s swagger.

What are your favorite bits of this, literally, epic two-parter? Or was the emotional manipulation just a bit too much? Let us know what you think in the comments!

Happy things:

• Lynne is beyond thrilled that Arthur Darvill has been announced as a guest at next months’ Chicago TARDIS!
• Tansy is filled with maternal pride that her youngest bought their first sonic screwdriver – and it’s the 13^th Doctor’s!
• Deb is still recovering from seeing Christopher Eccleston at NYCC. She live-tweeted the experience in case you missed it!
