Brilliant--I loved this. Although seeing the same actor who plays Sam as the Master in Doctor Who really would have tempted me to pull this story in a completely different direction!

Very well done!

Absolutely beautiful! You captured the essence of both 'Doctor Who' and 'Life on Mars' perfectly! Kudos to you. :)

Thanks for pointing me towards this. It really leaves me wanting more.

You've written this story extremely well. The characters are spot-on and the story never seems inane or lacking. I'm a huge Life On Mars fan and a growing Doctor Who fan, so this is easily going on my favorite list.

Oh, yay!! I absolutely adore both of these shows, and I haven't seen any crossovers before. Perhaps I'm not searching hard enough but, either way, this was begging to be written and you did it so wonderfully! I think you got Sam very well. The difficult thing with crossovers - and the reason I usually avoid them - is that people rarely seem to get the characters or the shows/their universes to meld together well, but I could really see this as an episode of either show. It worked brilliantly, and all credit to your writing.

Wonderful, wonderful. I love this story just for being a Life on Mars fanfic. It's even better that it's a good one.

Only one minor point of criticism: I would have loved it better if the first scene with Sam was entirely from Sam's POV, like the Life on Mars episodes are all told from Sam's POV.

Other than that, excellent story.
