  • god i hate madame de pompadour, i am so a doctor and rose shipper. 

  • One of the most underrated episodes of all time, it's genius and heartbreaking.

  • @XxXLucozadeXLoverXxX Yeahp. There is only one thing that annoys me is the bad acting for the actress playing madame de pompador.

  • I cry everytime i watch this episode but it is my favourite

  • It'd be sad if the show ends without him ever seeing her again, even if it's from a distance on her death bed with no words spoken, and even if matt smith, or the next actor has to do it. But they made a clean break to matt smith so I guess that won't happen :(

  • so sad... waiting for someone that will not come. aww I always cry for the doctor in this kind of episodes.

    this episode is remarkable.

  • does anyone know what the ending music is or soundtrack from 0:11 - 2:01 is?

  • @megalord921 its sad but catchy

  • @megalord921 the song is "Madame de Pompadour's theme song"

  • @momosman1234 thx man for telling me this :) this song always makes me cry

  • The ending is so sad, but really celver how it all makes sense in the end...

  • this is one of the best episodes of dr who ever. i am a man, i dont usually cry, but this made me cry like a little girl :)

  • What an amazing episode!

  • I never would have thought Doctor Who would make me cry. Such a beautiful ending.

  • The episodes that utilize time travel as a plot device are always the best.

  • would have been nice to see madame de pompadour in david tenants last episode, when hes dying and goes to "claim his reward" just to get a glipse of those he loved

  • I like how the Tardis leaves right at the end...the wind blowing around the empty ship then the windy noise before she dematerialises and just fades into..nothing! So melancholy..so sad..the Doctor disappearing back into the depths of the universe with yet another little piece of him broken off and tunbling away.. :o(

  • Awwwwwwww

    Its ok, Doctor, people come and go, but the memories will stay, and live on.

  • thats really sad bt not da first time i've seen it

  • maybe if he showed his campanions how to drive the TARDIS it wouldnt be off course so much

  • @TheBarryAT maybe..but theoretically, all he needs to do is enter the co-ordinates for their destination, lock them into the nav system, engage the stablisers & take off - the ship's auto systems do the rest! All this crap about going off course all the time - even the fourth doctor was quite good at steering the Tardis!

  • @danivarius so basically it's just an elaborate rouse to make his campanions go where he wants them to?

  • @TheBarryAT lol probably..and the first Doctor apparently didn't have a clue about how to fly her!

  • i always cry watching this episode

  • Idiot man!! you have a frikin Time Macine!

  • they probably wanted her because the ship was called SS madame de pamadour

  • @rockman895 that's the whole point......that's why you dont find it out until the end, it's part of the ending's impact.

  • :( It seems as though this Doctor is quite taken with blondes.

    Anyhoo, I love Renette. She has such a way with words. I love her amazing speeches.

  • @purpleeturtle97 anyhoo? not anyway or anyhow

  • They chose her because she'd seen inside the Doctor's head. It's a paradox/

  • The Doctor got sadder and sadder after this ep.

  • great

  • Comment removed

  • Trust me to miss one of the best first time round! 

    Thanks for uploading.

  • this episode never fails to make me cry, best episode from that season if i must be honest x

  • The writing and the music in this just makes this... complete. :D

  • *Sadface*

  • Oh I see why they needed her brain now.

  • i was expecting the letter to say, "That one" as in a response to picking a star

  • Oh, poor Rose! First she has to handle Sarajane and now Madame de Pompadoure!

  • i love this episode, i cried the first time i had seen it. the irony of it is, it happened to me, just i was shaking worse than a leaf in a hurricane when i got the letter and almost couldn't open it.

  • how come when he loved rose so much was he prepared to abandon her on the spaceship? he didn't know there would be anyway back but he cleared off to madam de Pompadour land anyway.......

  • @topliff12345 Moffat doesnt like Rose.

  • So... because he can't travel back in his own time line... I'm sorry, but does that me he doesn't really EXIST in a particular place/time unless he visits there? Not meaning in the minds of the people, but... in the universe?

    This is all getting really existential, I apologize. Does the Doctor... does anything... really exist until somebody knows it?

  • ur saying i dont really exsist?

  • time is relative. the faster you travel, the slower you seem to feel like you're going while the world around you is traveling at it's normal pace while you fly by. look at the im of a wheel on a car, the faste it goes, sometimes it looks like it's traveling slower and almost looks like it's going the opposite direction. bad analagy, easy way to grasp a concept

  • Thanks for uploading this episode, it is one of my all time favourites :)

  • It would've created a paradox. If he went back to before and let her travel with him, she would never have written that letter, so he would've just gone through the fireplace instead of using the TARDIS to get to her, which would mean she would've written the letter, which means he would've gone to get her, etc. etc. Besides, she's a part of history, he's not meant to change that is he?

  • Theoretically, could he not have taken the Tardis back in time to the exact moment before her death, or at least when he left her last? And then she could have become the Doctor's next companion, which is a bit of a weird thought

  • There's also that whole "Can't travel back over his own timeline/ Now we're part of events" deal that he has to abide by.

  • riiiiiight

    I always forget

  • ...wait, though - isn't he kind of doing that already by going through the fireplace/mirror/whatever?

    Rules are tricky and I have especially never understood this one

  • My excuse for The Doctor in these cases is always that he gets The Big Picture, while I do not. I'm thinking that once he's gone to the moment after she has died it is too late to go back and pick her up. He has been physically present in a reality where she is already dead, and he can't cross back over. Plus, I should think he was just being impulsive earlier - she is a fairly prominent historical figure - it seems like he couldn't really have gotten away with removing her from her time.

  • This makes me sad every time. :[

  • I cried so much in this ep...

  • i nearly cried. its so sad.

  • Yeah...damn you Steven Moffat! why is your writing talent so...talented?!

  • So sad. And the ending is just genious in its semplicity. *_*

  • The very end was a twist worthy of the classic days of "Twilight Zone"

  • best doctor who episode ever

  • Heartbreaking x

  • evry1 he cares about he loses a thousand heartbreaks poor doctor

  • The single most beautiful episode of Dr. Who *ever*. And here are some awesomely moving Rose episodes. But, this one... Oy.

  • I completely agree.

    Steven Moffat is a genius when it comes to script writing!

  • this ep made me cry!

  • me too T-T
