Rose asks the Doctor to go back in time, twice, to be with her father right after he was struck by a car. She gets more than she bargains for when she saves him, including getting a hug from a very young Mickey, her future boyfriend! Our eyes needed drying, but did we enjoy this tear-fest?

Satellite 5 is home to Simon Pegg, loads of food stands, the Jagrafess, brain opening memory chips, internet access for all with said chip, out of control heater vents, and one person who isn't supposed to be there. Er, make that four people. Will Kelsey like Adam? Will the Doctor improve in this episode? Will Colin get his good bye in? What an episode!

Aliens fake other aliens crashing into Big Ben and the Thames River as a diversion from their horrible methane gas exchanges. The Doctor watches TV, Mickey is blamed for killing Rose, and Mother Jackie slapsthe Doctor across his face so hard that all 900 years flash before his
faces. Will farting aliens win over Kelsey as much as they do Shelby? Maybe we need Dr. Tosh Sato to help us out. (The audio is fixed in this one)

Kelsey puts her mark on this Sixth Doctor tale that sees The Doctor meeting up with rival TimeLords the Master, and the Rani. English fictional quotes cannot stop the banter and insults thrown around each TimeLord, and the Doctor somehow goes unseen into the Rani's lair to find out the mystery of the unsettled Luddites. Why does Peri like to wear yellow? Will the Doctor stop arguing with Peri? Find out in this 19th Century historical story in which the Doctor is not the one interfering with history!

Richard Briers tries his hand at the Chief Caretaker in charge of the building's main cleaning staff, a set of very sad looking white robots. Surprisingly they don't look as dirty as the rest of the building. Over at the top of the building is a pool that Mel obsesses over throughout all four episodes while the Red Kangs clash with the Blue Kangs, the Rezzies, and even the Doctor as they cannot figure whether he is good or not. Good advice: do not ask to greet the Red Kangs, nor should you trust Pex to save you from a cardigan and a trident. So much garbage, so little cleaners!

"What do you all do in there?" "Argue, mainly." Yes we sit down to debate, argue and interrupt each other over the topic of who is a companion to the great Doctor. Do they have to travel with him? Do they need to be loyal? Do they need to make him fish fingers and custard with a side of carrot juice? Join Michael and Shelby as we tinker with our TARDIS databanks and figure out who really is a companion.

In a Christmas episode that was not aired at Christmas, the Doctor travels to 1869 Cardiff during the Christmas holiday where a rift in time and space creates a real phantom in an opera. Gas creatures who were mostly silent, unless they inhabited the dead, were they themselves a deadly vengeance of revenge. The Gelth as they were named end up crashing a Charles Dickens reading of A Christmas Carol and involving The Doctor, Rose, and Gweneth in a plot of certain doom for the human race. Will Colin be the happy medium?
