A Few Notes:

  • Please no spoilers beyond this episode unless you see that later episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those episodes.
  • This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
  • If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
  • The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.

for your question at the end if anyone felt differently about all the changes at once, that was definitely me watching this episode and series for the first time 😭 i hadn’t emotionally recovered from 10s departure arc (journeys end-end of time) and it was so jarring to my poor 11 year old brain, im rewatching this now with you pretty much for the first time hoping my feelings towards 11 and most of his companions have changed with time lol

It's interesting how, in terms of its basic plot, this episode parallels the Series 3 opener "Smith and Jones" -- an escaped alien prisoner is hiding on Earth, other aliens pursuing it arrive trying to track it down, and the situation escalates into a threat to the entire planet -- but thanks to the change in showrunner, the differences in tone are striking. Instead of taking place in London, the whole story is contained within a quiet English village (a setting more reminiscent of the classic series than the Russell T Davies years), with almost no reference to the wider world at all. I think both Steven Moffat and Matt Smith do a brilliant job in this episode, especially considering the pressure they were under of following on from RTD and David Tennant. In a retrospective article in Doctor Who Magazine in 2020 (celebrating ten years since his era started), Moffat gave some thoughts on the episodes of his first season as showrunner. This is what he had to say about "The Eleventh Hour": "This was a monster script to write. I actually did not have a particularly good time writing it, possibly because of everything weighing on me, and possibly because it's a very odd episode. Looking at it now, I think it's really good, and hugely entertaining, but what is the villain up to? What's the villain's plan? What's the jeopardy? It's like the jeopardy keeps reorienting itself to give Matt Smith another funny, brave or charming scene. It's not the most coherent 'alien menace defeated' plot ever. But it doesn't seem to matter, because it does the job -- I think, very well -- of presenting our new stars in their new roles. I think it's deeply charming."
