Moment of selince for how good David tennant looks in this...
Holy shit this was a rollercoaster of emotions my jaw was on the floor then I was fuming then I was on the verge of tears them I was grinning so bad cause the twist is very satisfying and not to mention occasionally kicking my feet because there's a close up of David Tennant's face. The dillemas on this wee so good like does this even happen?!?! Like is the law that dumb? Idk THIS IS SO GOOD I LOVE DAVID TENNANT
