Doctor Who: 10 Revived Series Episodes You'll Only Watch Once

2. Fear Her

Otherwise known as The One Where A Girl Traps People In Her Drawings, Everyone Sings Kookaburra Sits On The Old Gum Tree And Then The Doctor Saves The Entire World By Lighting The Olympic Flame (that was actually the official working title but it was later changed to 'Fear Her' when they realised it would never fit on the credits). Actually, if you haven't yet seen this episode then you needn't even bother now because that's literally everything that happens. There's some good old fashioned British patriotism and some lovey-dovey Tenth Doctor and Rose moments along the way, of course, but it's safe to say that this episode will go down in the Doctor Who history books for being a one trick pony. In its defence, though, it did have the slightly unfortunate responsibility of preceding the iconic Army of Ghosts/Doomsday two-parter so it was always going to be one of Series 2's lesser discussed final episodes (not to mention the slightly formidable fact that it followed Love & Monsters, too, but more on that shortly...). Once again it's a nice enough story but there really isn't that much to require an encore screening, unless you're a 10/Rose shipper, that is, in which case it's probably one of your most rewatched episodes ever. It's almost as if they suddenly realised Billie was leaving in the next episode so quickly shoved in as many cringe-inducing moments as they could, topped off by the obligatory foreboding statement when Rose declared that nothing would ever, ever be able to split them up. Ever. Unfortunately the universe had other ideas and the show seemingly ran out of them when they created an alien species which was abducting humans purely because it wanted new friends. In this case, all you don't need is love and let's not even talk about how David Tennant didn't end up lighting the flame for real. It's a good job time can be rewritten.
