Storyline
The Doctor and his companions prepare to do battle with Davros and the Daleks who are out to destroy everything and everyone in the universe other than themselves. All seems lost when the Daleks apparently destroy the TARDIS but it's not that simple as an empowered Donna - and a new version of the Doctor - take control and face the Dalek menace head on. For one of the Doctor's companions however, there will be a heavy price to pay. Written by garykmcd

Trivia
The Doctor's asking Gwen if she's from an old Cardiff family is a reference back to Doctor Who: The Unquiet Dead, in which Eve Myles played the clairvoyant Gwyneth. See more »Goofs
When Jack finds Mickey, Jackie and Sarah he does the studs up on the cover to his time-shift device. When he hugs Mickey however, three out of four of the studs have come undone. See more »Quotes

Crazy Credits
Along with the story's first half, "The Stolen Earth" (#4.12), this episode has the longest opening-credits cast list of the modern series: six names (Tennant, Tate, Agyeman, Barrowman, Sladen and Piper) appear before the title instead of the usual two... in the same amount of time.

I was a very new Doctor Who fan, started with the fourth series, so when I saw this I didn't understand most of it - I'd never even heard the phrase EXTERMINATE! But I had seen enough to like the show, and I liked the character of Donna. So I had enough explanations, because she was new and had to have everything explained to her. Her ending made me very sad and this final made me want to see more of Doctor Who. I have seen every episode of the New series in just 1 week, and now I am a complete addict and a very great fan. After catching up with the previous series I watched Stolen Earth/Journey's End again, and this time everything made sense, and I was impressed how everything came back from all 4 series - even Bad Wolf! I'll admit that not everything is great - the regeneration felt like a cheap way to get a good cliffhanger, and Rose's comeback, although I loved the reunitement at the end of Stolen Earth, seemed somewhat unnecessary- she doesn't contribute anything to the story.
However, The character of the doctor and his life are examined in a more detailed way than ever and that is the main storyline, along with the return of the companions. The battle with the Daleks is almost not important, it's just a background for the rest of it. The ending made much more sense the second time around, because I had seen him say goodbye before, and I knew his loneliness. The final scenes makes this one of the best episodes so far, and I can't wait for the next ones.
