The Morality in the Whoniverse panel kept wandering off topic (note to self - next year suggest a "Your theories on the Time War" panel to bleed off that whole thread) but it was well attended and people seemed to really like it. Major topics covered included "Does the Doctor have the right to enforce his morality on us?" (He has one; even though he has adopted the Earth, is he always correct, and what do we do if he isn't? With side trips into "Was Harriet right to do what she did?) Gwen's moral downfalls regarding Rhys (and if they are a parallel to Suzie's slow slide downwards), and "genocide and the Doctor: did he know what he was going to do to Gallifrey and was it the only choice? What about the Racknoross?"

The Sarah Jane panel was the only one where I lost a fair amount of people, but it wasn't as informative as the others - I basically squeed like a chipmunk on crack for an hour and encouraged everyone else to do likewise, which they did with great enthusiasm. Much love for the Sarah!

I don't know if I'll be able to catch up with everything that's being said on LJ since last night - the router at the hotel was nowhere near powerful enough to deal with the number of fans trying to get the episode. Let me put it this way - I was pulling the *mp4* dialup version and it took over 3 hours to come down! (And I was walking through the halls with my laptop open, dowsing for signal. Ended up walking into the wrong room...)

When I finally got it I was tempted to run through the halls screaming "I have it! I have it!" This put a cramp in my attempt to hold an impromptu "new Who/SJA" airing party with friends and folks from LJ I'm meeting for the first time. I stuck a note up on the room door that I'd hold an airing in the lobby in *checks clock* half an hour. We'll see who comes.

PS - It was [livejournal.com profile] cryptile who commented on my LJ "Doctor Who: Even our canon isn't canon." I had that made up into a button which has been VERY popular!

did he know what he was going to do to Gallifrey and was it the only choice?

In my head, he persuaded Romana of the necessity of it and now blames her for having "ordered" him to do it.

Oh, sorry, this isn't the "three bits of personal canon" meme? I'll get me coat.

In my head, Romana used him as a catspaw in her last resort plan.
