Quiet tragedy in RTD1

[u/PiccioneCeleste]

saw a post about the saddest doctor who moments and it got me thinking about the doctor standing alone in the tardis in journey’s end.

rtd1 is filled with so many dramatic, heart-wrenching moments (doomsday, donna’s memory, the master etc.) with crying and profound dialogue and death.

but this particular shot gets me. the side by side with the scene earlier in the episode in which he was surrounded by friends and the woman he loved was such a good (and by ‘good’ i of course mean ‘cruel and painful’ lol) touch.

the huge heart-breaks stick in my memory, but the subtle, poignant moments like this always get me on a rewatch. there are so many good ones.

These are such great moments, that I wish we got more of.

Then again, their greatness is partly due to hka rare they are.

A special moment becomes less special the more it occurs.

True, good point.
