Ep 8: The Empy Child/The Doctor Dances & motherhood

The Doctor and Rose find themselves seperated at the height of the London Blitz, where a strange boy in a gas mask is making everyone very uncomfortable by constantly asking for his mummy. This naturally made us think of motherhood, and the societal expectations that come with that. Cause let's face it, when it comes to motherhood, you're judged harshly for whatever choices you make.
