Oh yes, I'm with Danny and Kody re the regeneration, it was somewhat hasty, a bit like the explanation for the planet vanishing in PiC. But then again, it's not really an explanation, it's just a wild guess that a soldier made, so nobody really knew. You're right though, the real reason would have been nice to see.
Ronn, if tomorrow night's episode is brilliant, then call me wrong and leave it at that...

You were wrong, Ross.
Out of curiosity, did you or anyone else tie this to SJA? It's the name of that faceless guy that erased her in 'Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane'. I thought that was a cool crossover at least.

I don't watch SJA. But wasn't the Trickster a character played by Lee Cornes in 'Kinda'? Are they the same character?
Fun fact, Lee Cornes has had minor roles in Blackadder, Bottom and The Young Ones.
Rose was written poorly, in my eyes. She's not a bimbo and not a genius, but somewhere in between. The line that pissed me off was the whole..

She may very well have been how you described her when we last saw her, but don't forget that she's been in a different universe for two years now. She has had time to educate herself. Surely having those experiences has matured her a lot, especially when she was put in situations where lives were in her hands. Maybe, Kody, you didn't like how much mysterious she had become, but that's your opinion and I respect that. Personally, I like it a lot, and she sure is better as someone clever than as a piece of eye candy, what people like about her appearance so much I have no idea!
You saw how she was in the Series 1 finale when the Doctor left her, she realized how little she actually had once he had gone, so maybe being forced to accept that he was gone showed her how she'd taken life for granted. I fear I may be getting a bit fanciful here though, so I'll just point that anyone who travels with an alien and sees the universe is bound to come out more intelligent. Except maybe for Mel Bush.
