Best episode of Doctor Who ever.

I have loved this episode since the day it came out and have watched it countless times. I myself am a very big fan of doctor who, it is a show full of hundreds of remarkable episodes thanks to the show's outstanding soundtrack and brilliant casting particularly from 2005-2011, my favourite period of Doctor Who. Before this episode it was hard to imagine David Tennart becoming even more entertaining to watch and along with the new ensemble of castmembers especially the actress who plays Adelaide Brooke who is stunning, specifically her scene at the end of the episode when she confronts the Doctor for his reckless actions and abusing his power to distort even locked moments in time. This scene is perfectly ended with the death of Adelaide which displays to the viewer how serious she is about the subject.

When the Doctor is walking away from the Mars base, the screams of terror from the crew fill his mind. He keeps trying to remind himself to not save them in order to not ruin later important events in time. Eventually he does go back for them anyway which begins the best sequence in Doctor Who history. He finally realises that he is the last time lord and can manipulate time however much he wants which contrasts brilliantly with the very next episode where this is shown to not be true. Overall the monsters in this episodes are a great threat and in my opinion this is an amazing episode that anyone should watch even if there not a fan of the show as a whole even just for the amazing climax at the end.
