Yes, because the "power" that he used was Harry's life-force.
bah. PB and TDF's makeup department need to take some tips from Cferg and Eureka on how to look half-dead.
Also, I am now awaiting the slashers to screencap Harry and Bob.
DVD's! Wheeeee!

On board with the general Dr. Who squee-age! Yay, show!
One question: Have we seen or heard of Mr. Saxon (referenced in 3.1 on the radio and in a poster- "Vote Saxon" - behind Martha when she's outside the TARDIS) before?

ION, I had a dream that CFerg was coming to town, and I tried to get tickets to an Indians game for him - but my mother talked me out of that. Instead I ended up going to a Special Olympics tee-ball game with her and my older brother, where she proceded to not leave room on the bleachers for me, then get mad that I went and sat on the other side of my brother to get away from her. And then I couldn't even see the game. Hmm, I wonder if this was really more about P-C than about me or CFerg.
Hee!
I really liked the DW premiere for reasons others have already stated in whitefont.

Nora - Mr. Saxon was mentioned by name in "The Runaway Bride," his name appeared in an article headline in the newspaper that the Absorbaloff was reading in "Love & Monsters," and Vote Saxon posters appeared in the Torchwood episode "Captain Jack Harkness."

Thanks, Invisible Green! I think I need to do some rewatching of stuff. Also need to see Torchwood.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Huh. Maybe the sluttiness is a residual effect of the post-Time War trauma.
I think maybe Captain Jack rubbed off on him a bit. Er, maybe I should rephrase that?
In TDF, I'm wondering if Bob died of the same mysterious and inexplicable cause that killed NatashaKate Beckinsale in Van Helsing. They didn't make it clear if it was the effort of resurrecting and killing Justin, the spell that brought him back dissipating once Justin was gone, or something that was going to happen regardless.
The Carnivàle-esque take-life-to-give-life thing certainly helps explain what was so awful about Bob finding a way to raise his beloved from the dead that he was imprisoned for all eternity. Didn't he say that he restored life to her more than once?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Er, maybe I should rephrase that?
Oh, please don't!

I thought that it was a result of the lifeforce going from Justin through Bob to Harry. Harry kept shouting "let go, Bob". The life force going from Harry to Bob seemed to be conducted through Bob. I think that the force going back into him after such a short time is what killed him, like overloading a battery.
