Doctor Who 1x08 - "Father's Day"
This week, Rose causes damage to the timeline when she tries to save her father from death.
The Doctor takes Rose back to the 7th of November 1987, the day her father Pete was killed in a hit-and-run accident. Rose intends to merely comfort the dying man, but on the spur of the moment decides to save Pete's life instead. Her well-intentioned interference in time summons forth the Reapers, flying monsters who begin to consume the planet -- and it also has a catastrophic effect on the TARDIS.
I thought tonight's episode was very good. Very moving and well directed, too. Well done to all involved.
