So, it's time for day 18 of that amusing Who meme. And here's the problem, it's Fave Amy Moment.
Ok, so I didn't mind Amy in S5. She's never matched up to Rose, Martha or Donna for me, but she was good.
However in S6 I just lost patience with her character. Nothing against Karen Gillan, but the writing is bad. My main issue - no mother would get over losing a child that quickly. It doesn't matter if she knows that the child will grow up, she wouldn't accept it.
Anywoo, the point of this wasn't to start a random rant over one of the many reasons S6 annoys me.
So, going back to S5 to find this (without re-watching it, cause I can't be bothered yet). This is tricky, I've only watched S5/6 once. I will eventually re-watch them. Though mostly I'll re-watch S6 to see if it improves with a second viewing.
Damn, did it again. Bad me.
Anyway, my favourite Amy moment, comes in The Beast Below when she realises the truth about the star whale and talks about really old, really kind, last of your kind and not being able to watch children cry. (From the 5min mark in video). At this point I thought Amy had a lot of potential. It's a nice moment.
