As much as Russell T Davies and the Ninth Doctor combined, Rose is the person who resurrected Doctor Who the show, because she represents the fans who loved it, and wanted it to come back better. She not only healed the emotional wounds of the Doctor himself, she healed ours too, allowing the show to return in triumph, not limp out with all the same tired old gags, for a wheezy victory lap.

And, as the greatest fan of the Doctor ever, it’s only fitting that, having brought everyone together, and made everything work, she gets to leave with the most unique collectable action figurine (fully poseable too) of all time.
