And it's all our lives, isn't it? If we were kids or adults in 2005. Or weren't born and have caught up since. A lovely, mad show binding us all together. That blue box spinning through our lives. We are so lucky, we love the best! #TripOfALifetime.

Oh Donna. I loved writing you. I went on to set the day after this script has been released to the cast and crew (in the middle of Silence in the Library) and people treated me like a murderer. There was a PALL over the production! #SubwaveNetwork.

Sometimes I think I wrote this entire thing just to get all these people around that Tardis console. I'd always wanted this to happen. Imagine in the old days, if UNIT had got Jo and Sarah Jane and Liz Shaw all in one scene. Bliss #SubwaveNetwork.

4/4 If I had my time againā¦I'd have MILKED that. I'd have cast a whole new Doctor, a superstar for ONE scene. Ian McKellen! Judi Dench! Have them run around the Tardis. Then discover the hand, and regenerate back. IMAGINE!!! Why didnāt i?! #SubwaveNetwork.
