20 Worst Moments In Modern Doctor Who
3. Plastic Mickey (Rose)
It’s sort of a miracle that Rose was as successful in launching NuWho as it was when you consider that it contains one of the worst moments in the modern era. Again, we can ignore the of-the-time CGI. But what we can’t ignore is plastic Mickey.
His slapstick behaviour is pretty cringey and so on-the-nose that it really doesn’t make sense that Rose doesn’t notice it immediately. HIs reckless driving alone should have had alarm bells ringing!
Some might argue that Rose being oblivious to it was meant to highlight her obsession with the Doctor and missing what’s right in front of her but it was a stretch too silly for me to believe that she wouldn’t have gone "why are you being so weird?"
And don’t even get me STARTED on "PIZZA. PIZZA!" Or that rubbish wheelie bin. Pun intended.
