"There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea's asleep, and the rivers dream. People made of smoke, and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea's getting cold. Come on, Ace, we've got work to do!"

How Doctor Who originally signed off, in December 1989. Quiet, dignified, poetic, low-key. And sheer class. Perfect really. It still moves me intensely. 

I have not watched repeats of those, but that quote! it jogged my memory, I remember that! I read that and I thought wow! I do remember that.

"its the ones that surround the air after the closing credits and stay with you like an echo"

That's so well put, very quotable in itself! Poetic...

And! that quote from Dr Who and ones like it from TV, film its the ones that surround the air after the closing credits and stay with you like an echo, when you are missing the adventures that you somehow journeyed with them. And you feel like something is missing when the adventure ends for a while. 

Yes, I remember feeling that when I saw that ep, gosh it makes me want to now watch that era again. 

I also felt that way with the last ep of DT  (before this re-appearances off course)

That's fab that you remember. It's so poignant. They didn't know for sure they weren't coming back, but I think they felt it. And those words were there as a needed coda, just in case. I'm so glad they were. Even as a retrospective elipsis and no longer a full stop, it's still very moving to me. 

Redolent of that 'should you need us' from Labyrinth's ending - we'll still be out there, don't let your inner child die, and remember us...

That kind of vibe.
