    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Russell T. Davies wrote this episode because Billie Piper requested that she would be given a comic role in the new season, as a counterpoint to the often very serious material she had tackled the year before.
    • Goofs
      It's never explained how the Doctor managed to cure all the test subjects by simply spraying them with the cures, which were shown being used intravenously on the real patients.
    • Quotes

      The Doctor: So the year five billion, the sun expands, the earth gets roasted...

      Rose: That was our first date.

      The Doctor: We had chips!

    Great Episode - shouldn't have skipped it first time!
    This is an episode I skipped when I first began watching Doctor Who. Several people online suggested skipping this one, along with several others this season. So I did. However, when I got to the end of season 4, I just didn't want to let go of Tennant yet so I came back to watch this. I loved it. The city design was great. I laughed aloud at the antics involving Cassandra, The Doctor and Rose. I thought the case to be solved (wrong to be righted) was creepy but good. Overall, a solid "9" for me.
