Yeah, I think television has developed as a medium. In the past, a lot of shows had, like, emotional reset buttons, where something big and emotional would happen in one episode but would be forgotten in the next.

I think it's a lot more emotionally honest for Rose's impact on the Doctor to be acknowledged after she'd left.
