Father's Day

Original BBC Webpage: Episode 8

"Be careful what you wish for."

Hey! Remember the eighties?
The Doctor takes Rose to 1987 to see her father, "the most wonderful man in the world," before he dies. But Pete Tyler isn't quite the man Rose imagined him to be. But, then again who is. Sometimes the people we love don't live up to our expectations or even their own. Sometimes they let us down. But we love them anyway. Because of this, it is not impossible for an ordinary man of little consequence to summon, for the sake of that love, the personal courage required to save the world.
