Girl Who Waited is perfectly heartbreaking and shows you who the Doctor really is. Between that and God Complex, it’s no wonder 11 and the Ponds were ready for a little break.

I’ve never been a fan of The Doctor’s Wife to be honest.
I just never saw what was so special about it
Plus now it doesn’t help knowing what the writer has done

One of the highlights of Series 6 for me, a very fun episode, always good to see the inside of the TARDIS, and I love how we actually got to see the TARDIS speak for once.

It’s not perhaps as good as the pedestal many put it on at the time but I do have a great fondenss for it and that end scene gets me every time

Plenty to love in a series that often gets pilloried for not properly dealing with Amy and Rory’s trauma following A Good Man Goes to War. I love a fair few of these, paticularly; The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon, The Doctor’s Wife (I try not to think about the fact NG wrote it - but I can still appreciate how well done it was), The Girl Who Waited (almost perfect) and The God Complex.
In the end, I voted for The God Complex. It’s my kind of weird, has a lovely almost-companion in Rita (oh Rita, how you deserved so much more!), and dares to go to some really interesting places. Following on from The Girl Who Waited, this completes a powerful one-two critique of a Doctor who seems silly and fun on the surface, yet harbours a darkness.
I love this story. Praise him!
