When have we seen the Doctor tear up like that before? I don't recall having seen him quite this broken and down, even about Rose.
Also, how did we know Wilf was special?
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Well, like Donna, he keeps crossing paths with the Doctor.

Did we know before today that he was more special than, say, Micky?

I think the Doctor feels very protective about the human race. Add that and to how he feels about having had to mind-block Donna and I can see how he's starting to get a bit overwhelmed.
Also, I did not get a preview when I ahemmed, do they show anyone else surviving the Master-ization?

I found this from November in a Dr Who wiki:
It should be noted that the name Wilfred Mott is an Anagram for the phrase "WTF Time Lords" or "Time Lords WTF".
I wonder if that was intentional?

hwæt
That was weird. There was a whole lot of plot, yet not much happened.
do they show anyone else surviving the Master-ization?
They didn't show anything in the previews. But as pure speculation, I wouldn't be surprised if Captain Jack were immune.

FYI:
I found the preview and trailer that have been broadcast on BBC.
With the bonus of being available for viewing, since the UK site is off limits to non-UK peoples.
The preview may be spoilery, as I don't know if it's been shown on BBCA
