Still love moments when the doctors are prison the acting between the three of them is top tier. Love the moment when Ten tells eleven the number of children he killed and matt smiths face is brillant

Arek Schneyer

Time for one of my favorite lines in DW: Great men are forged in fire... it is the privilege of lesser men to light the flame.

Jonny Moonsliver

Been waiting for this one for a while! I love the War Doctor!

Had the episode ended with Ten and Eleven putting their hands over the War Doctor's and telling him he won't have to do it alone, it would have been the perfect episode. (Yes, I'm still so salty about the very existence of the War Doctor, but John Hurt's just too damn good to be mad that he's there as an actor.) I always hate when Moffat takes something RTD has done and either erases it or retcons it to a different outcome. But, still, I can't bring myself to be too mad at it. Chibnall's done worse (not saying what I mean, that comes later, no spoilers), and up until Eleven changes his mind it was awesome.

My forever favourite episode. I liked Billie Piper 100X more as The Moment than as Rose 😅

And some of us quite liked what he did. Especially as it confirmed a moment from one of my favourite 4th Doctor episodes and riled up all those fans who have been frantically trying to ignore it for decades by coming up with ridiculous, and frankly wrong reasons why it didn't happen while ignoring the intent of the writers and producers of the time.

Next week: Family and Time of the Doctor. I have so been looking forward to these episodes.

Ok, hypothetical for the two of you: Say you two were at a coffee shop in London. All of a sudden, you two meet and chat up with both Ten and Eleven. You all decide to go on a double date to a formal social function (where those two are checking out something nefarious going on, obviously). Which one pairs up with Ten, and which one pairs up with Eleven?

It was just a quirk of timing that this reaction landed on my birthday. Thank you for the birthday present.

Delia Derbyshire was the woman Katrina was thinking of - the one who recorded/engineered/produced the Dr Who theme. The BBC recently broadcast a documentary about her. Having watched it,the message I took from it was that she was undoubtedly a genius - and,like all geniuses,she was also rather strange!

Jade Ellis

Me after an hour and a half of pole fitness last night: Time to cut out junk food and get fit again. Me after seeing this drop tonight: Sits down with a bag of Minstrels & an Aero chocolate bar. I love this story, one of my favorites.

The whole scene when 10 and 11 meet the War Doctor. Simply amazing.

This is posted on my birthday. Such an awesome present. I'm gonna watch this in bed, after a lovely day, with glee!

That's brilliant, as is Clara and the War Doctor's discussion about his eyes, as well as the nod to former story editor Terrance Dicks's description of The Doctor's ethos as "never cruel nor cowardly"... ... but what always gets me is Clara's subtle shake of her head, providing The Doctor's moral compass. That's why The Doctor has (almost) always had a human companion - to show The Doctor what they know is right but cannot see. It's a beautiful pitch-perfect moment, and one that strikes straight to the heart of the show from the very beginning.

I've had this thought a while, have you ever thought of having the post watch reactions as a separate video on here. The shows getting more emotional I know i've been struggling to watch the post episode stuff recently because each episode seems to be a rollercoaster ride of emotions

Will

I think the TV movie wasn't that bad, despite some strange tinkering with canon. I assumed that was a general comment on American movies rewriting history, rather than the Doctor Who TVM. 😀 EDIT - I edited out a remark about Night Of The Doctor, which Sufyaan Kazi replied to!

Anonymous

Was so tempted to skip to THAT moment, so glad I did not lol. This was massive back in the day and the way it changed the whole Time war and Gallifrey destruction lore was huge. Some people tend to interpret the events as changing of the timeline, but I think those events always happened the way we saw here, and the Doctor just does not remember it until they experience it as the 11th Doctor - after all, the last thing the Doctor remembers is that he was about to push that big red button and then he woke up in the TARDIS freshly regenareted, And 10th also doesn't remember what happened.

Also, there's a DOTD novelisation writte by S. Moffat himself, which is very good and supplements the episode really well. One of the cool facts is, that it was River Song who sent the 10th Doctor to hunt the Zygons in 16th century England (it was kinda established in the show that they met between the Library and the Byzantium crash). Also, because the moving of a planet to a pocket universe creates a whole array of natural disasters, each Doctor had to be there not once (as shown in the special), but several times at once to save all the people.

Will

I don't think the Doctor not remembering that he'd saved Gallifrey is a plot hole as such, because it had previously been established that the Doctor doesn't clearly remember times when he had encountered future incarnations. I seem to recall it being established in the classic series, and the Doctor not clearly remembering things was established earlier in the episode.

George Baxter
>>60254572

I agree; its been established a few times that the Doctor encountering himself creates a paradox and only the latest incarnation can remember the change. So we the audience have new information but Eccelston and Tennant went through that loss. It makes sense that previous Doctors can't retain future memories but it allows for reunion specials in a neat way.

George Baxter

Loved the reaction Galifrey Gals! Its less emotional than I thought because this is ultimately a celebratory episode. As much as I like Hurt it would have been amazing to have Eccelston in that role of the War Doctor. But it wasn't meant to be...

Nicole Mazza
>>60241907

I personally jumped for joy when that reversal happened -- but then, as a huge classic series fan, that's because I was so salty about RTD killing off the Time Lords and Gallifrey coming into the new series in the first place and always felt it was VERY out of character for the Doctor to have done. Like this story shows, the Doctor always finds another way. That's just who the Doctor is. That made more sense to me. And I thought it was perfectly realized in this story. <3

Something I've noticed, if you go back and look at the very first New Who episode, when the Doctor looks into a mirror at Rose's apartment early in the episode, you see him checking out his appearance and fidgeting with his ears. I've always taken that to mean that it was right after his regeneration. I was surprised that they thought about changing that and having Christopher be the war doctor. And to be honest, I don't think he could have given the weight to the role as much as John Hurt did. The line 'Great men are forged in battle, it is the privilege of lesser men to light the flame' to me is such a tremendous line and I can't imagine at this point any other person being able to deliver it anywhere near as powerfully has he did.

Nah, the emotions are coming soon, next matt smith episode

Stephen Ray

Lovely reaction. Peter Capaldi had been announced 3 months or so before this aired.

Nicole Mazza

Oh, and of course now we know why Elizabeth I wanted the Doctor's head at the end of 'The Shakespeare Code' back in the day -- he'd totally ghosted her after their marriage!

I hated it when it was originally broadcast, but Paul McGann is so good as the Doctor that it has really grown on me.

Will
>>60253561

The book is so funny! I loved the stuff with 10 and 11 watching the Peter Cushing Dalek movies. :D The story of how 10 and Elizabeth met was also hilarious. I laughed so much reading it.

Darren Withers

I’m surprised at you Katrina! You know Paula would love to know Queen Elizabeth 1’s timeline to date that she didn’t even notice along the way. Well, here it is. 1. The Shakespeare Code: At the end of the episode, QE1 arrives at The Globe Theatre, see’s the Doctor and snarls “Doctor! My sworn enemy. Off with his head! 2. The End of Time part 1: The Doctor recounts his travels with an Ood including “....got married. That was a mistake Good Queen Bess, and let me tell you, her nickname is no longer....” 3. The Beast Below: Liz 10 is recounting her families interactions over the years, ending with “...and so much for The Virgin Queen, you bad, bad boy. 4. Amy’s Choice: The Dreamlord tries to rile Amy up, suggesting “...you’re in there! Love’s a redhead, our naughty Doctor. Has he told you about Elizabeth the First? Well, she thought she was the first....” 5. The Wedding of River Song: The Doctor is ranting at Dorian while he tries to call Brig. Gen. Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart. He starts listing off all the things he could do if he wanted with “Liz the First is still waiting in a glade to elope with me.” (Not technically true as they were already married, as mentioned in point 2). Sorry if I missed any. Canon is now that 10 and QE1 had premarital sex before the events of TDOTD (confirmed by Moffatt in a...... questionable exchange, but it was said, so that’s it).

Some Easter eggs here! Clara rides her motorcycle past a clock that reads 5:17, which was the time the first episode was broadcast. When she gets to the TARDIS, the Doctor is reading the same textbook that Susan is reading in that first ep. When the real Kate is leaving Clara and on the phone to get some info, she tells the person the other end of the line to look up files from either the 1970s or the 1980s, referring to the fact that the show writers could never keep straight what decade they were in during Pertwee’s run.

I love that Kate says to look for the file 'Codenamed Cromer', in reference to 'The Three Doctors' serial! <3

Been looking forward to this, near the end of my Doctor Who watching time and really enjoyed this one.

Well, I feel a little better about having John Hurt as the War Doctor after hearing from Eccelston. When he did a panel at a NYC Comic-Con, he said he was really excited that for the War Doctor they cast one of his big acting heroes in John Hurt. I mean he already was great in the special, but Eccelston's endorsement makes up for him not being in the special himself.

Lloyd B

I haven’t much to add to everyone’s comments, other than to say this was a highly enjoyable celebration of the show and it’s history. The thrill of seeing Tom Baker at the end is especially satisfying for us “old hands”, as Tom famously refused to participate in the 20th anniversary special, The Five Doctors. And just a comment about your (understandable) confusion at Osgood’s name, it being so similar to Clara’s surname. Sgt Osgood was a character in a 3rd Doctor story called the Daemons. He was a slightly nerdy UNIT technician/science officer tasked with building (and “reversing the polarity” of) a piece of equipment the Doctor required to defeat the adversary of the story. I like to think this Osgood is somehow related to him - perhaps a niece or grandniece, I suspect.
