Villain- Clockwork Men, who need the brain of Madame de Pompadour, specifically at the age of 37, and will do anything to get it.

Quotes-
The Doctor: Must be a spatio-temporal hyperlink.
Mickey Smith: What's that?
The Doctor: No idea, I just made it up. Didn't want to say "Magic Door"

The Doctor: Rose, take Arthur, follow it. Don't approach it, just go, go, go!
Rose Tyler: Arthur?
The Doctor: Good name for a horse.
Rose Tyler: No, you're not keeping the horse.
The Doctor: I let you keep Mickey!

The Doctor: [drunk] Have you met the French? My God they know how to party!
Rose Tyler: Oh look at what the cat dragged in, the oncoming storm.
The Doctor: You sound just like your mother.
Rose Tyler: What have you been doing? Where have you been?
The Doctor: Well, among other things, I *think* I may have just invented the banana daiquiri a few centuries early.

Mickey Smith: What's a horse doing on a spaceship?
The Doctor: Mickey, what's Pre-Revolutionary France doing on a spaceship? Get a little perspective!

The Doctor: Nah, nothing here. Well, nothing dangerous. Well, not that dangerous. Know what, I'll just have a quick scan... in case there's anything dangerous.

The Doctor: Poisson?... No, no, no way, Reinette Poisson? Later Madame D'Etoiles, later still mistress of Louis the XV, uncrowned Queen of French? Actress, artist, musician, dancer, courtesan. Fantastis Gardener! French Servant: Who the hell are you?
The Doctor: [triumphant] I'm the Doctor, and I just snogged Madame de Pompadour!

Favorite Character- Madame de Pompadour, her chemistry wih The Doctor broke my heart. I'm not Francais at all, even though I do take French class. But, from what I've read and seen with the history of Reinette Poisson, Sophia Myles was gorgeous at acting as her. Extraordinaire!

Favorite Moment- The very end, The Doctor is reading the letter Reinette wrote to him. A tear welled up in my eye, "My Dear Doctor, The path has never seemed more slow and yet I fear I am nearing its end. Reason tells me that you and I are unlikely to meet again, but I think I shall not listen to reason." As she loved her Fireplace Man,it's so sad! "I have seen the world inside your head and know that all things are possible. Hurry then my love; my days grow shorter now and I am so very weak. Godspeed my lonely angel. "

Tear Factor- Who doesn't cry at a good love story??? 6 out of 10

Fear Factor- Eh, Clockwork Droids weren'tawul, but the first scene with them in Reinette's bedroom was schock-scary type, 4 out of 10
Rating- 9 out of 10

Cast-

The Doctor-David Tennant

Rose Tyler- Billie Piper

Mickey Smith- Noel Clarke

Jackie Tyler-Camille Coduri

Villans- Sycorax, after the witch from Shakespere's The Tempest. In Shakespere's Code, The Doctor mentions the name the 'Sycorax', which Shakespere says he'll use sometime.

<><><>

Quotes

Danny Llewellyn: That means they might not be Martians at all!

Major Blake: Of course not, Martians look completely different

<><><>

The Doctor: Well, yeah, you could, you could do that, course you could, but why? Look at these people, these human beings, consider their potential. From the day they arrive on this planet and blinking, step into the sun, there is more to see than can ever be seen, more to do... no, hold on... sorry, that's the Lion King... but the point still stands!

<><><>

The Doctor: We haven't got much time. If there's Pilot Fish then... why is there an apple in my dressing gown?

Jackie Tyler: Oh, that's Howard's, sorry.

The Doctor: He keeps apples in his dressing gown?

Jackie Tyler: He gets hungry...

The Doctor: What, he gets hungry in his sleep?

Jackie Tyler: Sometimes.

<><><>

Jackie Tyler: I'm gonna be killed by a Christmas tree!

<><><>

The Doctor: Rude and not ginger!

<><><>

Favorite Character- Oh, it has to be David! It's his first time being the Doctor, and I love how he just sweeps off his feet into the role! I'm probably not going to do this any more, choosing the Doctor as my favorite, but still, he was amazing as it(:

<><><>

Favorite Moment- Loved it when Doctor, Rose, Mickey, Harriet, and various other humans (liked that Alex kid, btw, wish they'd bring him back sometime) are aboard the Sycorax ship, and they realize that they can understand the Sycorax's native tounge, which I don't understand how Alex can, due to he has never been aboard the TARDIS. But, they do, and Rose realizes The Doctor's back! When he comes out and starts talking about who he really is, I was laughing and mental-noting to make this the best moment. Rude and not ginger! And his little wink to Rose was cute!

<><><>

Tear Factor- Only for Ecceleston fans, which I wasn't really. So, defiantly a 1 out of 10, if you cried at the part where Rose hugged her mother, choking up about how her Doctor was gone. Which clearly I didn't.

<><><>

Scare Factor- 1 out of 10, cause I jumped a bit when all of a sudden the Sycorax's first video was shown.

<><><>

Rating- 8 out of 10

<><><>

P.S.- Welcome to the family, David! (And we'll miss you when you're gone! Some, more than others :*])
