What is 'End of the World I and II'? Why aren't they part of either season? I did see the thing with the Daleks at the end of Season 5 where he regenerates and doesn't change.

End Of The World I and II were the last two of a series of 5 movie-like specials with the 10th Doctor. They came after the end of Series IV that you just finished watching and were the last appearances of David Tennant as the Doctor. He regenerates into 11 at the end of EOTW II. You could refer back to my post that has a detailed and chronological listing of all the modern Doctor Who episodes and specials.

However, if you can't watch those, it doesn't matter, watch Series V when you get it and it will be alright. You will enjoy it for the content and it really is a great series. All fans loved it and it's not really that important to watch anything before. You already watched the entire series IV so you will get 5 easily.

Ah. Thank you. I feel compelled to ask what happened to the 8th Doctor. I never hear about them. Why?
Oh, crud! You're right. Sorry WarriorSatyr. They are called the End of Time I and II. I always get that mixed up. Thanks for the clarification Anne!

Yeah, my best friend loves The End of Time. I just think it's sad. Good ending for the 10th though. It shows his human side, unlike the 9th.

Just finished watching Series 5. I have such a movie hangover that I'm speaking in a british accent! Pip, pip! Cheerio!
But of course! You wouldn't believe how many times a day I say "Oi!"

I keep doing that too! People keep giving me weird looks, but I don't care!
That's nice!
Hey, have you guys seen the video about what happened to Rory's dad after Rory and Amy left? You should all watch it!

Howdy Dr Who fans. I slowly worked my way through series one on Amazon instant video, and I loved it. I've just seen the first full episode with the 10th doctor. He will take some getting used to. I loved at the last episode with the 9th doctor how he saved Rose at the cost of his own (9th dr) life ... and in the next episode, how he was revived by a cup of tea. It was all so nicely done.
Tomorrow, I think, in my blog, I am using a Dr Who example for my spiritual point I am making. I will post it here, too.
Hope I can catch up with you all eventually! Right now I am just starting Series 2 with 10th Doctor.

I saw that the day it came out, and cried. xD I could hardly believe that I was crying over concept art and a voice over, but..... yeah.
I really liked how this gave us more insight into the Pond's future (or past ) lives, and thought it was really sweet.Howdy Dr Who fans.

Ooh! I'll look forward to seeing that!
Thanks! Here it is!
Even when I was walking with Jesus for many years, I had somehow failed to receive the life He intended for me. I’ve been trying to tell you how He gave me that life, by healing the deep wounds I lived with.
I was asking Jesus why and how what he did was different than psychotherapy to help me confront the pains of my past. As it happened, I had just watched a scary Halloween episode of Dr. Who (“The Empty Child” with the 9th doctor, for you Dr. Who fans) where some alien nano-bites had tried to repair a little boy killed in the blitz in London during WW II.
But they fouled up, they brought him sort of back to life physically, but they didn’t know much about human physiology and thought his gas mask was part of his face, so they organically grew it into his skin to where he didn’t have a face, just a gas mask.
He began to transmit this new DNA to everyone he touched as he stalked the London streets looking for his mother, so everyone was terrified of this mutant boy who could turn you into a gas mask zombie.
But when his mother found him and embraced him, the nano-bites realized their mistake (comparing her DNA to what they’d done to the boy) — and they fixed him. They restored him (and all the other zombies) to what they were supposed to be.
I think Jesus was telling me it’s like that with us. We get busted up, and we try to fix ourselves as best we can. We can’t heal our wound, so we work around it — and we don’t even realize the disastrous way we’ve altered our true selves.
When He embraces us, then we’re repaired and restored to the way we ought to be. Then we can have this life of which John speaks, the true life, who we were meant to be!
11 This is the testimony in essence: God gave us eternal life; the life is in his Son. So, whoever has the Son, has life; whoever rejects the Son, rejects life. (1 John 5:11-12, The Message)

Good thing you guys saw that!. Also, on the BBC Doctor Who page (not BBC America), they released a short, short series titled "Pond Life" that chronicles the Doctor's interactions with the Ponds during the time just prior to the start of series 7 when he traveled alone for a while. It's what they call a "mini-adventure" and all videos are probably no more than a minute long.
You can watch that at the following link:

Wow, Inkspot! Those are some great insights. It never occurred to me to look at it that way, but that's a great analogy. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I also saw those when they came out, and really enjoyed them. ^.^ They made it a little easier to wait for the episode to come out.
