Summary:
The Doctor takes Rose back home and tells her that just 12 hours have passed. They soon find out that a whole year has passed and not just a couple of hours. Rose can't tell her mother where she has been because she wouldn't understand it. Right then a spaceship crashes into the Thames and the Doctor wants to find out what kind of alien was in the ship. He soon finds out that the alien has been a fake and Jackie discovers who the Doctor really is. After she sees the inside of the TARDIS and The Doctor tells her that he is an alien, she calls a hotline and soon Rose and the Doctor are brought into Downing Street 10. What is behind the fake alien and is Earth facing an invasion?
"Aliens of London" is the first part of a two parter and it isn't the last one in this series. The open ending often makes everything more exciting and you have to wait for at least a week to find out what happens next.
I just love the character of Harriet Jones in this episode. Every time she tells somebody who she is and flashes her ID at them, I have to grin. I guess that's a bit of a running gag because she still does that in later episodes. The Slitheen are an alien race that is funny and a bit scary at the same time. With their human disguise the always look like fat people who are farting too much and then there is this zipper on their forehead when they want to take their skin off.
You can see that Rose is torn between going with the Doctor and staying with her Mum and her friends and we don't know how she will decide yet. The Doctor gives her the TARDIS key and I think that's a sign that he trusts her and wants to have her around him. With Doctor Sato, the woman in the morgue, we have another person who we will see again later in Torchwood. I really don't know if Tosh already works for Torchwood at this point, so if you know, please drop me a line.
