An bealach fada romham.
Ó oíche go hoíche, mo thuras,

That was beautiful *wipes a little tear from eye* I love that u've included absolutely everyone who has stood by the Doctor's side over the years &hearts Wonderful editing! Thanks for sharing!

[sczep84.livejournal.com]

And with "everyone" I mean all the kick ass women, lol, cause who needs men anyway :p

[such_heights]

omg omg. download faster, file! eee!

[such_heights]

Hmm, my computer's having problems with the download for some reason, I'll try that again later. But OMG this is wonderful! This is my show! I love how many characters you included and how you tied them all together on this fantastic adventure, full of triumph and sorrow. Beautiful choice of music and great clip choice, as ever. I have chills!

I also LOVE that you do not see the Doctor in a single frame, as far as I can tell. Win.

Fantastic! This is a wonderful showcase for so many of the brilliant, kickass women who have graced the Doctor with their presence. Watching this vid, I felt caught up in their discoveries, journeys, and triumphs.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! They are so very, very awesome.

[shinealightonme]

This is fantastic! Such a great tribute. And yay for Lynda and Joan getting some fannish love too ^_^

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I totally remembered Lynda at the very last minute, and then couldn't stop myself from going back and editing her in. Oh, Lynda-with-a-Y, you were the sweetest.

[airgiodslv.livejournal.com]

I love all of your vidding work, oh my goodness. And I adore Martha, but omg, who is the gorgeous perky-looking blonde? She is so cute!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! MARTHA. Oh, I do love Martha. And that description fits about half of them, but I get the feeling you're referring to JENNY, who is the Doctor's daughter (sort of -- it's complicated) and is MADE OF AWESOME. Time lady! She only shows up in one episode, but I still hold out hope we'll see her again someday.

[freelancer-47.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh, this was a beautiful tribute! It made me so nostalgic! Lovely!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[talkingtothesky]

Wonderful! ♥ Thanks for making and sharing. :)

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[tricksterquinn.livejournal.com]

Oh, GIRLS LADIES! That's so lovely.

And I watched PotD just in time!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

See, now you understand why I kept giggling about Lady Christina going WHEEEEE!

[redbrickrose.livejournal.com]

This is just lovely. Thanks for sharing.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[hollywoodgrrl.livejournal.com]

That was really very lovely! My face is literally all smiley right now. :)

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[liesofdesire.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is so great! Even though the tone is very different from that of the show, it's kind of how I see it? And now I have a happy grin on my face. :D

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad it worked for you. :D

[pocky_slash.livejournal.com]

Joy! This just filled me with so much joy! THIS is the show that I love, THIS is the reason I love it! Rose and Sarah Jane and Donna and Martha and fucking SALLY SPARROW and EVERYONE. JENNY! Oh, it was just beautiful and wonderful and it reminded me that my love for these women is still there, even if I am now totally pleased with The Doctor at the moment.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! See, this is why I made it, because regardless of where this show winds up going, it gave us all these awesome kickass ladies, and that is a wonderful thing.

[quickthorne.livejournal.com]

So amazing.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[sellega.livejournal.com]

Love this! It had everyone. LYNDA WITH A Y. I love how you show how kickass they all are. Especially at 2:05 and up.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I have to admit, I'd thought I'd finished the vid, and then I remembered Lynda, and had to go back and edit her in because she deserves it, dammit. :D

[kel-reiley.livejournal.com]

GORGEOUS!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[humantales.livejournal.com]

Let's hear it for the ladies!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

\o/ !

[thingswithwings.livejournal.com]

This is so beautiful. Absolutely made me cry, right from the beginning as I watched their worlds opening up, watched them all come into their own. I love it, thank you. <3

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[dualbunny.livejournal.com]

Beautiful tribute to all of them, and a wonderful job blending them all together. :D

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[tormented-space.livejournal.com]

Lovely! Brought a tear to my eye as you captured the sheer joy of DW so well.

When I think back to the Doctor Who of my youth (80's) it was the fabulously feisty Ace who I loved. I'm so glad they've given us so many more this time around!

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. (Ace was indeed AWESOME as well, yes!)

[radioactivepiss.livejournal.com]

This vid is just stunning. The editing is really smooth and I love how you cut things so they just flow.

This is totally the show I watch too. ♥
