Goodbye Amelia Pond and Rory Williams (Top Moments of the Doctor Part 15)

71. "I love you more" from Asylum of the Daleks

This is a very emotional scene towards the end of Asylum of the Daleks where Amy and Rory fight over who loves the other more. It is actually a pretty sad scene as they had broken up between Series 6 and 7. Rory believes that since he did not want the relationship over that he has always loved Amy more but as these scenes show, they have both loved each other a lot. I am very sorry for the backing track taking away from the emotion but it was the best I could find that had the scene (well the only one I could find). It turned out that Amy only broke up with Rory as she could no longer have children after what Kovarian did to her at Demon's Run.

72. "Run, you clever boy!" from Asylum of the Daleks

This is the first episode where Whovians got a taste of what the new companion was going to be like. Of course, at this point she was still a mystery as in here she is a Dalek. Throughout the whole episode, she has helped the Doctor, Amy and Rory survive the Dalek Asylum and escape unscathed. This emotional scene is Oswin discovering that she is a Dalek but with a strong human mind that did not want to let go. It was a great show of how strong a character she is to be able to fight against her Dalek instincts so that the Doctor could survive. It is only at the end of Season 7 that we learn the significance of "Run, you clever boy. And remember..."

73. The Doctor is Bored in The Power of Three

This is a funny part of the episode where we see a Doctor staying in a place for an extended period of time when he rarely stayed in a place like that without doing something. It is funny when he is bored. Rory's line at the start of this scene should also not be forgotten.

74. "Together or Not At All" from The Angels Take Manhattan

Amy and Rory's final episode did not disappoint. This scene was such an emotional one where Amy and Rory are trying to escape from the Weeping Angels together. In the end, Rory wants to kill the angels by creating a paradox. By killing himself he is preventing himself from ever growing old in that building and creating a paradox which could kill the angels. It is very emotional to see just how much Amy loves Rory in that she would rather jump off and kill herself with him than have to go through seeing him die. Amy and Rory really are the best for each other. It is also sad to see the Doctor see the person whom he imprinted on from being the first face that regeneration ever saw. It would also be horrible for River, their daughter, to have to live through it and watch her parents be taken from her again.

75. Goodbye Amelia Pond and Rory Williams in The Angels Take Manhattan

Can we just pause a minute and reflect on how great this fan-made tribute video is? It is so spot on and emotional. A lot have some really bad music but this is just great (the music is from the Series 2 Soundtrack Doomsday [name of song not soundtrack]). Just when Amy and Rory think they are safe, Rory is taken by a Weeping Angel and sent back in time. Meanwhile, Amy had to watch it happen and then decides she is going to go with him and intentionally touches the Angel's hand to be sent back in time. The full scene is very emotional but I could not find it on YouTube by itself.

76. Afterword by Amelia Williams from The Angels Take Manhattan

This is the sad scene from the end of The Angels Take Manhattan straight after Amy and Rory are taken by the Weeping Angel back in time. River who writes the book that leads the Doctor to finding her has Amy write an afterword to the Doctor for him to read. The Doctor then runs back to Central Park where he had ripped out the last page of the book as he did not like endings. It is Amy's final farewell to the Doctor and it is pretty emotional. There was also a Rory version that was never shot that was sent to Rory's father. I will embed the video below but here is the link to that one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWU6XL9xI4k. It is official as it was on the BBC website so it is not made up. I am giving the link as sometimes videos posted by the BBC are not able to be watched on other sites other than YouTube or what the BBC allows.

EXTRA: Rory's un-shot Goodbye Scene to his Father

This was an un-shot scene (after the part at the start from Dinosaurs on a Spaceship) in which Rory sends his father a letter from the past where Rory finally gets to say goodbye to his father. It is also revealed that Amy and Rory adopted a son; Anthony Brian Williams who delivers the letter to Rory's father (Brian). It is very emotional even though it is not actual scenes; just drawings from the story-board with the accompanying words and motions.

Goodbye Amelia Pond and Rory Williams. See you tomorrow.

So Much River (Top Moments of the Doctor Part 14)

66. Stormageddon: Dark Lord of All from Closing Time

In this hilarious scene with the fan-favourite Craig, the Doctor reveals that he can speak baby as well as the name that Craig's son Alfie calls himself; Stormageddon: Dark Lord of All. It is a pretty interesting name for a baby but I guess it does not matter, he is just a baby. Pretty cool baby though.

67. Kovarian Comes for River Song in Closing Time

Source: http://villains.wikia.com/wiki/Madame_Kovarian

It is in this scene from the last episode before the Season 6 finale that Madame Kovarian returns for Melody Pond, or as we know her; River Song. It is here that Kovarian takes River and puts her in the (SPOILERS) Astronaut suit so she can (*SPOILERS AGAIN*) kill the Doctor. The haunting rhyme at the end; "Tick, Tock, goes the clock, now River kills the Doctor" just adds another element to Doctor Who which is why so many people love the show (myself included).

68. The Silence from The Wedding of River Song

In this scene we learn from Dorium, or rather his head, what the Silence actually is. Up to this point everyone has believed the Silence to be those monsters we were introduced to in The Day of the Moon. It was, in this scene, then revealed that the Silence are actually a religious order. Through later seasons and more of the Silence is revealed.

69. The Wedding of River Song from The Wedding of River Song

This was a scene that I did not actually realise I liked until the Doctor Who YouTube channel posted this scene. It is actually a pretty great scene where the Doctor believes there is no escape from his fate and that no one else would want to help him or even care. River song also reveals how much she loves him in this scene. The scene ends with River and the Doctor getting married.

70. The Question from The Wedding of River Song

It is the question that the Silence are determined will never be answered. The first question which has been hidden in plain sight; Doctor Who? It is actually a great link to the Season 7 finale at Trensalore. It was such a great ending.

Come back next Sunday for some more Doctor Who goodness!

An Emotional Roller-coaster (Top Moments of the Doctor Part 13)

Welcome back to yet another Doctor Who Sunday post! This segment is all about DOCTOR WHO! We will continue with our search through some of the modern Doctor's greatest moments! Last week there was a lot of emotion and judging by some of the scenes we are going to go through now there is a lot more to come but, hopefully, there will be some laughs mixed in as well. Geronimo!

61. Rory Puts Hitler in the Cupboard in Let's Kill Hitler

Many of us would have asked ourselves what we would do if we found ourselves with Hitler in some strange twist of fate (and time). Thanks to the wonders of Doctor Who, we now know what the Doctor would do to Hitler. Even Rory is a little shocked when he gets to punch Hitler, point a gun at him, tell him to shut up and put him in a cupboard. It is one of those great scenes that makes you love Doctor Who even more. Hold on though, there are a lot of emotions ahead.

62. River Song: "Is he worth it?" in Let's Kill Hitler

I warned you that the emotions were real. This episode, Let's Kill Hitler, comes straight after the episode When a Good Man Goes to War when (SPOILERS) River song was revealed to be (STOP READING IF YOU DO NOT ALREADY KNOW) Amy and Rory's daughter; Melody Pond. In this episode we see Melody Pond before and after the regeneration that turned her into River Song. As she was trained to kill the Doctor, she poisons him with her special lipstick and then, at the end of the episode (this scene), she finds out that she is the River Song that the Doctor and his companions have been going on about and she uses her remaining regeneration power to save him. The episode may sound like a stupid one but it is actually full of so much heart and emotion. I did warn you that the emotions were coming.

63. Amy Hates the Doctor in The Girl Who Waited

Source: http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/doctor-who/images/25227821/title/6x10-girl-who-waited-screencap

This episode sees Amy separated from the Doctor and Rory in the "Two-Streams" facility which was created to save the inhabitants of a diseased planet by keeping everyone in separate time streams where they could only see each other but not meet. Rory has to go with the TARDIS and the Doctor to catch up to Amy's faster time stream but by the time they arrive, thirty years have passed and Amy is sick of waiting for the Doctor. This episode is one that Whovians either love, or they hate. I love it for its heart and the dilemma that Rory faces later when he has to choose between saving the younger version of Amy who has not known the heartbreak of the older version or save the older Amy who has waited over thirty years for the Doctor. We finally see an Amy whose unfaltering loyalty to the Doctor has stopped yet her love for Rory is still strong. Warning: the emotions only get worse from here.

64. Old and Young Amy Reminisce about Rory in The Girl Who Waited

This scene is just as heartbreaking for Amy as it is for Rory who has to choose between saving the young Amy who has just arrived or the older Amy who has waited thirty years. In this scene, the two different ages of Amy talk to each other through the looking glass that allows people to see between time streams in the "two-streams" facility. They talk about Rory and why they love him so much. I do not know how the Whovians who watch this episode not like it. I guess some people are just not built for emotions.

65. "Don't let me in" in The Girl Who Waited

Source: http://whatculture.com/tv/doctor-who-5-best-5-worst-11th-doctor-episodes.php/7

This is one of the most emotional scenes in the whole episode. I wanted to include the video clip to do the scene justice but there was none on YouTube. I did find this fan-trailer for the episode though which shows some of the best bits. Here is the link: http://tinyurl.com/IWaited4U and the scene at the end with the hand up against the TARDIS window is what I wanted to tell you about. That hand belongs to the older version of Amy who the Doctor had quickly shut the door on when the younger Amy finally made it through. He also locked the door and left Rory in charge of it so that she could not get in. In this scene, the older Amy knows that she cannot enter the TARDIS with the younger Amy as the resulting paradox would be too big for the TARDIS to maintain but she still also wants to come in. So she tells Rory to not let her in. Even though she wants to so badly she tells Rory not to let her in. This would have been so hard for Rory to do as he even became angry at the Doctor for making him choose between a scarred Amy or a fresher Amy.

I warned you that this post would be an emotional roller-coaster. See you tomorrow!

Top Moments of the Doctor Part 11 (Doctor Who Sunday)

Welcome back to yet another Doctor Who Sunday post! I guess that it is also a welcome back to longer posts. I am going to try and schedule some longer posts to come out in the future so I can take some days off for homework and other commitments so hopefully there will be more long posts in the future. It is VCE now which means a lot more studying and less time to write these posts but I will try. Anyway, we are back to going through some of the Modern Doctor's greatest moments. You can check back through the archive to your right (highlight your cursor over the rectangles) to find the other parts that you may have missed. As always, this is in no particular order other than chronology.

51. The Silence Defeat Themselves in The Day of the Moon

This was the moment that the Doctor ensured the defeat of the Silence by using their own power of hypnotic suggestion against themselves. By inserting this clip of the Silence telling everyone to "kill us all on sight" into something that millions of people were watching, he ensured that the silence would be their own undoing. It was a very smart move that once again saw the Timelord victorious (thumbs up to you if you know that reference).

52. River's First and Last Kiss in The Day of the Moon

This very sad scene at the end of what was supposed to be a very triumphant moment represents a part of what makes Doctor Who so good. This scene sees River kiss the Doctor which for him is the first time. River also knows that their lives are lived in reverse and that her beginning with him is as he is older and her end is when he was younger. River then knows that she may never kiss the Doctor again as she knows that when the doctor no longer recognises her (sees her for the first time), it is her time to die. That is part of what made the Silence in the Library episode so good.

53. "You can call me Sexy" from The Doctor's Wife

This is one of the funnier scenes of Doctor Who. It takes place after the Doctor is lured to an Asteroid in a bubble-Universe with the false hope of finding another Time lord. Once there, the TARDIS consciousness was taken out of the TARDIS and put into the human body of Idris. Idris then calls herself "sexy". It was a great scene in many respects.

54. Sexy Dies from The Doctor's Wife

This was another one of those sad scenes that makes Doctor Who so deep. In this scene, Idris' body deteriorates due to the sheer size of the TARDIS matrix and as she dies, she expels House from the TARDIS and saves Amy, Rory and the Doctor. I am sorry that you have to watch this clip on YouTube but it is well worth it. It gets really sad when Idris says "I just wanted to say hello."

55. Memories of the Flesh in The Rebel Flesh

This is a scene that brings up some big moral questions such as "What constitutes being human?" and whether what they did to the Flesh was right. It is a very sad scene made even worse when we later find out that it was just Jenny's Ganger (made of the Flesh) manipulating Rory into helping her. It is a sad scene that I love to watch over and over again. You really should go watch it on YouTube.

The Doctor has many sides. See you tomorrow!

Top Moments of Modern Doctor Who Part 10

Welcome to yet another Doctor Who Sunday post. Also, happy Australia Day! Let's get started right away for a change.

46. The Doctor and Craig in The Lodger

This episode saw one of the funniest pairings in Doctor Who since Donna and the Doctor. Yes, the Doctor moves in with Craig in order to solve a mystery in the room above. In this episode the Doctor does many things. He plays soccer, fills in for Craig at his work (becomes more popular than Craig at his work) and sets up Craig with a friend who has always liked Craig and Craig has always liked her. It is a great pair and this episode should not be skipped over lightly.

47. The Last Centurion from The Big Bang

Source: http://grummelmaedchen.wordpress.com/2011/06/05/doctor-who-a-good-man-goes-to-war/

It really was romantic that the girl who waited, Amy Pond, fell in love with a man who would stand guard over her for 200 years. It was a match made in Doctor Who heaven, the boy who waited in love with the girl who waited. In this episode, Rory is forced to kill Amy Pond by forces beyond his control and in order to save her, Rory places her inside the Pandorica which has a regenerative light so that the thing trapped inside it can never die. He then waits 200 years to see her again. All the while protecting her from every danger. It is a very big act of romance that I doubt anyone other than Rory Williams could have pulled off.

48. Kazran Loves Abigail in A Christmas Carol

This episode sees a blatant rip off of a Charles Dickens' classic but we will let that slide because it was a great episode. In this episode we find a man, Kazran, with the power to save the lives of thousands of people on a spaceship yet he is so bitter that he decides not to. The Doctor than travels through his past to change him so that he will help them. Through this they find a girl, Abigail, who is frozen in a stasis pod which Kazran's father keeps. Each Christmas the Doctor takes Kazran and Abigail wherever they want and they have so many great adventures. Kazran inevitably falls in love with Abigail and he becomes a different person. However, when he finds what the countdown on the pods means he again turns nasty. It really is a great episode that you should watch. Bear in mind, that this is a fan-made cinematic trailer.

49. River Slaps the Doctor for Making her watch him Die in The Impossible Astronaut

This episode sees the Doctor inviting Amy, Rory and River to what is a seemingly nice get together. However, the Doctor knows that he is inviting them to see his death. After this, a very distraught River, Amy and Rory return to the diner where they were before and find another letter on a table. They then find out that the Doctor also invited himself to come at a later time to meet up. However, the Doctor (who is still alive) does not know this and so River slaps him for something he makes them watch in the future. It is a great slap.

50. The Silence from The Impossible Astronaut / Day of the Moon

Source: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/exploringourmatrix/2011/08/what-is-the-oldest-question-in-the-universe.html

Steven Moffat struck gold again in the creation of this monster. The Silence are creatures who you can only remember when you look at them. As soon as you turn away, you forget all about them. They are the perfect monster because, for all we know, they could be real. Plus it is credible that they have been on Earth for a while. They also have the power of hypnotic suggestion. While you are looking at them, if they tell you to do something then as soon as you look away from them you will do it without knowing why. Of course, this also allows for the Doctor to reign victorious over them in the end of Day of the Moon but still, it is a great skill.

See more Doctor Who moments next Sunday. See you tomorrow!

Doctor Who Sunday: Top Moments of the Modern Doctor Part 9

Welcome to yet another Doctor Who Sunday! This is the segment with all things Doctor Who! Currently we are going through what I deem to be the best moments of modern Doctor Who. Of course there are heaps that I have not mentioned (yet) and I may have even forgotten a few of the best moments so feel free to comment below your own favourites or send them through to legolukeytutorials@gmail.com where I read every email you send (as it is sent to my phone so I have no choice). Let's begin!

41. The Truth about Starship UK from The Beast Below

Source: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/cult/s7/doctor-who/i437689-8/doctor-who-a-history-of-the-universe-in-100-objects-starship.html

Do you remember the famous quote "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!" from A Few Good Men? That same thing can be said about Starship UK. When the world was burning due to the expansion of the Sun, the people on Earth fled to the stars on spaceships. This spaceship contains the whole of the United Kingdom (except for Scotland). Every person on board (except for some very few people in the control centre) believes that the ship is run by engines. However,  it is actually run by a space-whale which has the Starship UK attached to its back. Every 5 years, the people aboard Starship UK go to a voting booth individually. Here they watch a recording telling them the story of the Starship UK. After this they can vote to either "Protest" or "Forget". If 1% of the population select "Protest" than the program is stopped and the whale is set free. Even the Queen has chosen to "forget". There is a very emotional scene where the Queen watches a recording of herself telling the story of the Star Whale. When the world was burning and the children were crying this star whale came from above like a savior. On its back they built a ship to sail them away from their world. It is also revealed that this Star Whale is the last of its kind. It was very emotional as the Doctor had to decide whether to save millions of people and kill the last star whale or vice versa.

42. Scared Children from The Beast Below

Source: http://www.tvrage.com/DoctorWho_2005/episodes/1064899752/recap

This part of the episode sees Amy Pond, the Doctor's companion at that time, take a gamble that the space whale will stay to save the children. It is discovered that the Star Whale did not come to Earth all those years ago like a miracle, it came because it could not stand hearing children cry. It was a very poignant moment and the audience got a taste of the Amy Pond we would grow to love even more throughout the forthcoming episodes.

43. The Dreamlord from Amy's Choice

Toby Jones is great in this episode as he plays the Dreamlord who (SPOILER ALERT) turns out to be the Doctor's darker side brought out by psychic pollen in the TARDIS. In this dream brought on by the pollen, the Dreamlord creates two worlds with two very different dangers. Only one of the worlds is real (or so they are told) and they have to decide which world is the real one. Amy is also made in this episode to choose between the Doctor and Rory, hence the title Amy's Choice.

44. Amy can not Live Without Rory in Amy's Choice

After this scene, Amy decides that the real world is the one in the TARDIS as she can not bear to live in a world where Rory has died. Amy takes the van and kills herself and the Doctor by ramming it into her house. It is very emotional and one where we finally get to see who Amy loves more; Rory.

45. Vincent Hears of his Fame in Vincent and the Doctor

In this episode, Amy and the Doctor go to visit Van Gogh after discovering a monster in one of his works. They discover, and Amy is shocked, at how sad and dejected he is and how no one likes his works. This is the end of the episode where Amy and the Doctor take him to see a museum exhibit all about his artworks. The Doctor also allows him to overhear a conversation with one of the art historians and how he believes he is one of the greatest artists of all time. It is a very emotional scene.

We have reached the end of yet another Doctor Who Sunday, come back next week for more. See you tomorrow!

Doctor Who Sunday: Top Moments of the Modern Doctor Part 8

Welcome back to another Doctor Who Sunday! As you may have realised, over the past two weeks this segment (in fact, all segments) took a brief hiatus and this is the first Doctor Who Sunday of the New Year! This segment is to do with all things Doctor Who. Currently we are going through some of the top moments of modern Doctor Who. Of course, this is of my opinion and so if you have any that I may have left out then do not hesitate to comment it down below or send it through via the contact form.

36. The Doctor Donna from Journey's End

Who did not just love this shock twist at the end of Journey's End? Personally, I find this finale one of my favourites in Doctor Who and this is just part of the reason. Donna Noble, played by the very talented Catherine Tate, has become part Doctor, part Donna, the Doctor-Donna. It is always fun to see one of the most feared monsters in the Universe turned into powerless machines. Plus, Donna's comedy became even better as she began spouting out nonsense that no one but a Timelord would be able to understand. It was a great scene.

37. The Spinning Daleks from Journey's End

Source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/celebritynews/2253820/David-Tennant-staying-as-Doctor-Who-after-surviving-Dalek-showdown.html

This humiliation of the Daleks in Journey's End was a triumphant moment for many Whovians. As the Doctor Donna came through and saved the day she also managed to humiliate the most feared monster in the entire Universe. This scene can be seen (not intended) in the above clip. Just seeing them be pushed and kicked around was enough to put a spring in many a Whovian's step.

38. "I Don't Want to Go" from The End of Time Part 2

This was the scene that broke many hearts. It was the last time we thought we would ever see David Tennant as the Doctor and if it were not for the 50th Anniversary special it would have been. This farewell also set a precedent for Matt Smith's as when each of them regenerated they both said something that could be seen as coming from them as a farewell or just from the Doctor. Both of them were scripted but it was very emotional. Eccleston's farewell was not as much like these ones.

39. "Delete your internet history" from The Eleventh Hour

The first episode with Matt Smith (besides the regeneration at the end of The End of Time Part 2) was one that introduced you to the new Doctor and gave us all a taste of what we could expect from the new era of Doctor Who. In this episode, the Doctor is trying to save the world from a prison warden from another universe who will destroy the Earth if a prisoner is not recovered in twenty minutes. This scene sees the Doctor and Jeff, someone he found to help him besides Amy and Rory for once, take Jeff's laptop to hack into a conversation only to find something he was not expecting. As the Doctor said, "delete your internet history."

40. The Earth is Protected from The Eleventh Hour

After the prison wardens, known as the Atraxi, leave the Earth safe and sound the Doctor then calls the monster back, much to the surprise of Amy and Rory. The Doctor does this to show how angry he is that the Atraxi threatened to destroy the entire Earth just for one prisoner. It was a very triumphant moment of the Doctor showing his power and strength to stand against such monsters and intimidate them.

Tune in next Sunday to see more top moments of modern Doctor Who! See you tomorrow.

Doctor Who Sunday: Top Moments Part 2

Welcome to another segment of Doctor Who Sunday! I am pre-writing all these top-moment posts over the coming weeks so that I have a few Sundays off over the coming months. However, as more episodes of Doctor Who air, more moments will be added. So far, I have compiled a list of 92 and included 5 in my last post. That means that this series is going to be running for nearly 5 months! Anyway, this list is in chronological order and only includes the modern series of Doctor Who as I have not watched enough of the Classic Doctor Who so I can not make a judgement on the best moments. Anyway, on with the show!

6. Harriet Jones' Introductions in The Christmas Invasion/Stolen Earth

Harriet Jones first appeared in the episodes with the Slitheen (Aliens of London and World War Three) and also made a come back in the Season 2 Christmas Special The Christmas Invasion as well as the Season 4 finale The Stolen Earth. In all of these episodes she always said "Harriet Jones" followed by her current title. Even when she the people already knew who she was she would always say that and show her ID. It really makes for some funny scenes. The above clips are not even all of the times she says that.

7. K-9 in School Reunion

Aside from the joy of the return of Sarah Jane (a previous companion in the Classic Doctor Who series), Whovians also felt joy when they found K-9 with Sarah. I believe many Whovians were upset with his fate in this episode but it was still nice to see him again.

8. Madame de Pompadour Enters the Doctor's Mind in The Girl in the Fireplace

Source: http://www.flickfilosopher.com/2007/12/doctor-who-blogging-girl-in-the-fireplace.html

The Girl in the Fireplace was actually my first Doctor Who episode and it was actually what hooked me into the series. It probably helps that it was such a great episode, as many whovians would agree. In this scene Madame de Pompadour enters the Doctor's mind and sees loneliness and other things inside. It is one of the rare moments we actually get to see the Doctor's emotional side and his inner thoughts. It really deserves it place as one of the best moments of the show.

9. The French Know how to Party in The Girl in the Fireplace

Source: http://hyperbeeb.tumblr.com/post/3981906238/drunk-doctor-ftw-best-insult-ever

In this scene from the same episode, Tennant's Doctor returns from a part in France pretty drunk and having just invented the Banana Daiquiri. He is so drunk he even makes the above insult to the clock-work monsters in this episode after he proclaims how the French really know how to party. It was a little bit of comedy that literally interrupted a very serious and almost deadly moment in The Girl in the Fireplace.

There will be 6 more next week to make up for 4 this week. See you tomorrow!

Random Thought Saturday: A Hectic Week

Welcome to another random post here on Daily Lukey. You may have realised that the
"Random Thought Friday" segment has been moved to a Saturday and this is just for ease-of-posting reasons. Fridays are generally busy but on Saturday I do not have school so I do not have to worry about been too busy unless I am going away for the whole day or an extended period of time. Anyway, I wish to apologise (and since you can not stop me I am going to do it anyway) for the amount of short posts this week. Even though it was the last day of the year for school it was still a very busy one. For instance, on Monday I had school all day, then a pathologist's appointment, helping the PFA prepare for Speech Night and attending CFA so there was only a very short post explaining why there would only be some short posts this week. Tuesday, however, was a different story altogether. I had to leave home at 7am to go the Leadership Forum at MacRob in the morning and then went straight from there to Speech Night rehearsal when I never came home until after Speech Night was ended which was around 10:30pm. Even that I had to stay up a little later to have a shower so I never actually went to bed until 11pm and by this time I was so tired that any post I tried to write would make absolutely no sense. I would have scheduled a post to come out on this day but I only found out the day before (Monday) that I had to go to the Forum at MacRob and the only spare time I had on Monday night I spent preparing for the Forum with the other students from my school who were going. It was a very hectic week.

The busy week continued on Wednesday with my Piano Concert on that night. I was pretty awesome on stage (come on, I can dream can I not?) if I do say so myself and I played Gnossienne No. 3 by Erik Satie which is an awesome song by the way. Wow, I am using awesome too much today. Anyway, no matter how awesome I was it did not change the fact that I was still busy. Plus, at this time I was still freaking out about what the doctor meant when he wanted me to come in right away. The result was a lot of stress and a short-ish post. Thursday was yet another busy night even though it was the last day of school for the year. It was mainly busy because I finally went to see the Doctor (and was pleasantly surprised at the result [Fantastic]) and then on the way home we also did some shopping. As a result, the remainder of the night I spent preparing for Orientation Day the next day. By prepare I mean relax. By relax I mean sleep. Long story short, the day ended with another short post. Oddly enough, it was the longest post I have ever written on my phone which was a big achievement for me. It took me a while but it was worth it. Plus, it probably helped that I was not so tired that I just wanted it finished. Friday finally came around and I was able to relax for once. Orientation Day was over along with my time at school until the start of February. Well this post has changed from random to a week in the life of Luke. That should totally be a new segment! I just need to work out when to put it now though. Sunday, Tuesday and Saturday are taken and Wednesday, Monday and Friday are no good for me. By process of elimination I guess that this new series will most likely be posted on a Thursday. Keep an eye out over the coming weeks for this new segment! You read it here first, on Daily Lukey. Well, this is probably the only place you are going to read it on so anyway, enjoy the new segment. You may also notice a change in length of the posts which I post. This is not because I am getting lazy but because since I returned my School laptop I need to use the home computer. For some reason, the size of the words are different when I type them so it may seem like I am writing more when, in reality, I am writing less. I just want to apologise in advance for this.

Wow, so many new things to look forward to over the coming weeks. See you tomorrow!

Doctor Who Sunday: Top Moments of Modern Doctor Who (Part 1)

Welcome to a brand new segment called "Doctor Who Sunday" where the whole post will be about something Doctor Who related. Over the first few weeks (by few I mean a lot) I will be listing the top moments of Modern Doctor Who (as I have not watched enough of Classic Doctor Who to make those judgements) in chronological order from Series 1. I already wrote my list and got 92 moments which I will spread out over several weeks. How much moments I put in each post depends on the amount I write about which. However, this is going to go on for a number of weeks so as new episodes air I will add new moments (if I find any I really like). After this is done I will move on to something else Doctor Who related. So, without any further ado, let us begin with my top moments of Doctor Who in chronological order of the modern series.

1. The Slitheen from Aliens of London and World War Three

These monsters added a lot of comedy to the show in 2005. What is not funny about aliens who have to take up a human's body to fit in which has the unfortunate side effect of a lot of farting. It does set up the show for a lot more comedy as it is one of the first bits of it we get in the new series of Doctor Who. One of the Slitheen who survived the end of the episode World War Three (I am not going to say what it survived due to spoiler reasons) makes a return in the episode Boom Town which comes right before the two-part finale.

2. Peter (Rose's Father) from Father's Day

This was an episode which revealed more of Rose's past and emotional side. The story basically involved Rose creating a paradox by saving her father from dying by being run over by a car. All Rose originally wanted to do was just make sure that he did not die alone but misses her chance and so tries again but this time saves him. As a result reapers come (attracted to the paradox that was created) and try to repair the paradox. It really is a very emotional and raw episode.

3. Captain Jack Riding a Bomb in The Doctor Dances

Of all the things you think you might see in Doctor Who, I doubt a time agent riding a bomb in World War Two would come to many people's minds. The scene was, for the viewer, expected to be the time when Jack would die but he is saved by The Doctor and Rose using the TARDIS. Over the next few episodes, Captain Jack joins Rose and the Doctor as a companion. It was a great moment in television history. Would you just look at how well the writers set things up by seeing how that bomb says "Wolf" and presumably Jack's jacket is hiding the word "bad". Whovians will know what "Bad Wolf" is setting up for.

4. Captain Jack's Concealed Weapon in Bad Wolf

This scene occurred when the Doctor, Rose and Jack were hidden in games shows on Satellite 5 to hide them from the Daleks. However, they all discovered how dangerous the games actually were and so tried to escape. Captain Jack was caught in a Make Over show with some androids who first used a machine to undress him and then chose clothes to make him look well. However, they soon moved onto more drastic changes through cutting off his head or body parts. At this point Jack literally pulled a gun out of his bum and shot the androids. It again added comedy to the show and was another way for the writers to surprise us.

5. Rose is Bad Wolf from The Parting of the Ways

This is yet another of the "How are they going to escape" moments which Doctor Who is so well-known for. This is also a very powerful scene which comes after the Doctor sends Rose back home to save her from the Daleks after they escape from the game shows on Satellite 5. Rose tries desperately to return to Satellite 5 and becomes an emotional wreck until she succeeds. Eventually, Rose accidentally looks into the Time Vortex and becomes the Bad Wolf. However, it is too much for a human mind and so the Doctor kisses Rose to save her.

See you next Sunday for more Doctor Who moments! See you tomorrow.
