178B. (2.9) The Satan Pit

The Devil made me do it! While they don't clearly state if it is indeed the Devil, it certainly is an ancient and evil entity that may well be older than the universe itself. And regardless of what it's called, it is evil incarnate. The genius casting of Gabriel Woolf as the voice of the Devil, who also played Suhtek in the classic series, creates a very old and deep resonance. The closing line of the story, that the Doctor and Rose are the stuff of legends, is strangely foreboding. The fact that this was David Tennant's and Billie Piper's actual final scene adds an emotional undercurrent that runs so deep.
