The scariest thing I ever saw on Doctor Who wasn’t when I was a kid. It was a David Tennant story. The Cybermen one. On a parallel Earth. And there was another Mickey. Called Ricky. And he was a freedom fighter. And when he died Mickey decided to stay in parallel Earth and fight the Cybermen. But Ricky was obviously gay. And he had this boyfriend. So at the end of the story, Mickey and the boyfriend decide to go and liberate Paris. And I thought, hang on. Here you are, off to the most romantic city in the world, with a man that looks exactly like your boyfriend, except he doesn’t love you anymore. And he never did. Your lover is dead. But you have this reminder with you every day. A man who will never love you. Because he loves Rose. You can’t grieve properly because he’s still there. It’s like your relationship, your pain, is beneath contempt. You’re totally alone. And that was supposed to be a happy ending.

And that was the scariest thing I ever saw on Doctor Who.
