It is 8.10 on Sunday morning

I am awake, after a grand total of about 3 hours of sleep, and I am so filled with delight after The Day of the Doctor that I am not sure I can go back to bed.

No spoilers, because I know a lot of Aussies will be watching it tonight, but it is a thing of great joy and beauty and if you do not breathe a little gasp of surprise and wipe away a tear in the last five minutes, then you are Gen Y or lacking a soul.

Oh Doctor … it is the only show that I was allowed to watch as a child, you know. My father was wise.

Iloved the end credits -- brilliantly done! (Shame about the stupid voiceover for the after party, though! *grumbles*)

LOVED IT. I was in your boat as a kid - the only TV I watched was Dr. Who and Monty Python, and all the other kids thought I was weird. Well Who's weird now? Heeheehee... I didn't cry today, because technically nobody (and maybe really nobody nobody!) died, but I screamed and flapped and clapped so hard I scared the dog. :D

Loved it! And there was a period when I was a child that Mum wouldn't let me watch it - because a few episodes gave me nightmares..... Yes I was a delicate petal with a massive imagination...still can't watch a lot of suspense/ horror stuff by myself...

Hehe, woke up after only 4 hours of sleep here too! Oh the things you do for Doctor Who... Loved this episode!

Well thanks - now my Saturday has crumbled. I saw your post and went "Good Grief I must have just finished recording that". So off I run and start it up - I am on my way for the pee I needed to have an hour ago - I have paused the recording - all 3 are in the Tower with Rose arguing over how many died that day etc.

I'll get back to you in a while (pee then finish watching).

Oh, it was so good. Queen Elizabeth was fantastic. I loved the last few minutes, and I did get teary eyed. I knew when Clara said what she did at the very end, that it was going to be significant. I can't wait to watch it again. :) I adored Rose and her "Why can't it be both?" about the weapon/chair.

So you've never seen the one with Tennant regenerating? I'm rewatching it now, and yes, it's a tearjerker, but the episode is so wonderful that it's amazing anyway. Sad is happy for deep people. ;)

Just amazing. Amazing.

Oh, don't go to bed! I'm still playing that fun little game on Google, and I've watched the episode twice. SO AMAZING.

I am depressed because I set my PVR for it, and the schedule on the TV (which sets the PVR) was out of synch with the actual programs…so I only got the first half:(

6:40?! You are lucky...in WA it was on at 3:50! Lucky it was brilliant!

T'was wonderful. So many precious moments. I had spent the morning bemoaning the "Americanisation" of the doctor into and uber-space hero with "girlfriends" not companions over the last series, but was delighted to be able to eat my words.

Yes! I finally found a squee post. I had high hopes for Tumblr, and then all the people I knew who were Doctor Who fans on tumblr decided to hate on the episode and Moffat and my :( face came into effect.

I _adored_ this episode. It was everything I love in an episode.

Also, sands shoes and Grandad! Hee.
