- Please no spoilers beyond this episode unless you see that later episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those episodes.
- This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
- If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
- The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.
- This episode was viewed on HBO Max.

I swear I swear I SWEAR, I’m not trying to criticise your likes and dislikes. But it’s going to seem that way if you notice my comment on Journey’s End where I was floored anyone would rank Donna as the third best companion out of the 3 so far. But, you simply CONFUSE me! 🤪 Watching your YouTube reactions for months, I felt like I had a good grasp of your likes and dislikes with this show. Most of the time, you seem to line up with the majority of fans. But since I got a membership yesterday to move ahead on your reactions quicker, your feelings on the last 8 or so episodes confound me completely. I have never heard anyone wish this special was longer. And the commenters on here seem to be the 4 mythical long-lost Christina fans. 😜 This special is rated as one of the lowest (though The Next Doctor is pretty universally panned, as well). Many people will say it was her character/acting that puts it towards the bottom. The character was not received well. Over the years, I don’t think I’ve ever rewatched this one a second time. Only the part about the four knocks (I even skimmed this reaction, because I couldn’t sit through the episode in full). But again, NOT criticizing, just baffled. I have episodes myself where my feelings don’t reflect the vast majority of fans. There’s one episode, in particular, that SO many people consider to be the best of all time. I don’t get that. I think it’s fine, but nothing extraordinary.

When Britney said "Malcolm get your shit together" I took that as a direct message to me... I'm trying! /cry ;-)

This movie is so much fun, and I love Christina!! The actor who plays Malcolm (Lee Evans) was in The Fifth Element as the crewmember who doesn't know how to negotiate, and in There's Something About Mary as Tucker the English architect.
