Trivia:
A particular piece of music written by regular composer, Murray Gold with vocals from Melanie Pappenheim, caused an influx of emails to the BBC requesting a Doctor Who soundtrack on the back of this piece of music alone. The following year, fans' wishes were granted and a soundtrack was released on the strength of the emails inquiring about that one particular piece of music. more
Goofs:
Continuity: When the Doctor and Rose are talking in the bay, the Doctor's hair is blowing in the wind, but it's not when he is in the TARDIS, even though it's a realtime conversation, meaning the actor was obviously on the beach recording his lines with Rose and back on a set doing the inside scenes. more
Quotes:
Dalek voice: Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate!
Rose Tyler: Daleks! I know your name. Think about it. A human who knows about the Daleks. And the Time War. If you want to know how then keep us alive. Me and my friends.
Mickey Smith: Yeah. Time War. Me too.
Dr. Rajesh Singh: Me too.

An amazingly powerful close to the episode., 23 December 2006

If you take Rose Tyler out, you make an all to familiar error in episodic television. People want a face, a person, an emotional investment for the show to carry, cherish even protect. This show moves from danger to danger and a new generation of viewers is following and Rose is our steady link to this chaotic light speed introduction into "the Doctor's" world. With so many things that we're asked to accept you must give us our constant attachment to Billie Piper's face and Rose's innocence turned confidence in the face of multiple calamities. If you move on without giving us our face, I may still follow but you'll never get the same emotional investment nor the same desire to follow.

Billie Piper, oooh. Well played. I'm not some renowned critic or some stiff aristocrat spouting opinions in the Queen's English. I'm not going to effect your life in the slightest way with my feelings. But by golly that was some impressive acting, for TV or any other medium. Brava!
