Fanvid: Centered around Gwen's speech in CoE regarding the Doctor

After hearing Gwen's speech about the Doctor in Torchwood: Children of Earth, I felt the need to make a vid focusing on her words. The reason why I used Doctor Who clips specifically from Series 3 is because well, if I had to choose, Martha trumps all as a companion. This is a short vid - just a little longer than the length of Gwen's speech. So, basically Martha's just there to play the companion.

Focus on Gwen and some Jack in the second half. This vid breaks my heart when I watch it, which isn't hard considering how emotional CoE was as a whole.

Note: The part where Gwen talks about the Doctor not being there to help - all those times in history - it's up to interpretation, but basically it implies than he can't be on Earth all the time. He has the whole universe to look after, so he could have been on the Moon (like in this vid) or another planet dealing with another alien threat.

Features scenes from Children of Earth: Days Four & Five and Doctor Who Series 3.

Note: The audio starts up a few seconds into the vid.

Audio:
"There's one thing I always meant to ask Jack, back in the old days. I wanted to know about that Doctor of his. The man who appears out of nowhere and saves the world. Except sometimes he doesn't. All those times in history when there was no sign of him, I wanted to know, why not? But I don't need to ask anymore, I know the answer now. Sometimes the Doctor must look at this planet, and turn away in shame. I'm recording this in case anyone ever finds it, so you can see -- you can see how the world ended."

"There's nothing we can do."

Sorry for the long explanation. Hope you like the vid. :) I just had to make it as a dedication to CoE.
