[QUOTE]Originally posted by FawnDoo: [QB] I think they killed them off to give the Doctor a sense of vulnerability and isolation - which provides a link with Rose as they're both cut off from their familiar surroundings and respective worlds (just in different ways - Rose by distance, the Doctor by death). Also it shows that the Time Lords - and by extension the Doctor - are not some all powerful force that will always be there. They die - and they don't always come back with a new face. Something that I think was necessary to make the new series feel a little more weighty and relevant, in these days of audiences being used to things like the BSG remake and other such drama. However, I still think they will pull some kind of trick with the Time Lords and the series will, at one point, show Gallifrey undergoing something of a restoration. There are enough reasons that can be conjured up for the Doctor not being able to sense other Time Lords (perhaps they don't want to be found and are deliberately not showing up in the Doctor's spider sense?) to allow for some survivors to appear at a later date. All in all I have to say I'm enjoying the new show. I never thought I would have felt sympathy for a Dalek. Or been scared by one for that matter. [/QB][/QUOTE]
