No but actually how traumatic for Jackie Tyler to experience what she experienced. The things that probably went through her mind that year Rose was missing.

Shop dummies nearly kill her, she gets a weird call from her daughter who doesn’t say anything and hangs up, then another weird call the next day where Rose is acting strange… she probably thought about those phone calls 1000 times trying to remember if there was any hint to where her daughter was.

The effort she put into finding her is clear based on the posters all over the table a YEAR after her disappearance. She never gave up on her.

I’d lose my shit way harder than she did when she slapped the Doctor. She was so right for that.

i feel like it’s so integral to have at least one “at home” episode for every companion. so much character to be revealed in the premise of aliens interfering with everyday life once they are back on earth

"This is what I travel for, Rose. To see history happening right in front of us."

Started from the bottom (fighting farting aliens) now we’re here (saving space babies with a giant fart).

watching Aliens of London knowing that ✨Dr. Sato✨ was in fact not a doctor at all and had no idea what she was doing makes it so much funnier

because like, the doctor thinks she knows a lot about medicine but nothing about aliens when really she deals with aliens daily but has little to no idea what a pig’s brain is actually supposed to look like

also just the fact that she found the doctor before jack did. like i know that version of the doctor couldn’t’ve helped him because he hadn’t met jack yet but still it’s funny

ianto was also at the very least in the same building as the doctor at one point (canary wharf), and that version of the doctor absolutely did know what was wrong with jack, which means that two of his employees encountered the doctor before jack did

gwen didn’t meet him until after exit wounds, but her family still came into contact with him before jack did

it also means that the only torchwood employee that didn’t meet the doctor was owen and that makes me sad

It's Billie Piper's birthday. Here's a little collection of just some of my favourite moments from her time in Doctor Who:

rose was right when she called the doctor gay in aliens of london but it wasn’t because he was bitching about being slapped

[casasupernovas]

the doctor can never seem to avoid the missing year thing can they?

I’m rewatching Aliens of London, and all I can think about is how rough it’d have been for Owen to have to have the day Tosh had that day all while supremely hungover. Just imagine him with the worst hangover imaginable, trying not to vomit while chasing an augmented pig down a hallway, and tell me it doesn’t make you laugh.
