And on the eighth day God said get down get down
It's hard to believe that the man im listening to in this recording is the same man ruining Doctor Who right now! He seems so sound, self reflective and acutely aware of what the fanbase really wants from the show. Now he seems completely unhinged and disillusioned and has completely forgotten how to write DW
1:36:00 Chris Chibnall should have really listened to this bit lol
RTD should listen to himself.
Dovahkiin
Idiots Lantern lowkey a banger, sleeper hit, glad to see Russell giving it some love
@@PapaLuge spot on mate. I would include love & monsters and fear her too. The fandom is unfair to that run of episodes because it's become fashionable to hate them.
@@PapaLuge love & monsters is one of my favourites actually
Are there bits missing cause all of the sudden it goes from fear her to runaway bride and from Daleks in manhattan to the doctor’s daughter
@@slimmy_0076 it was a 7 part series, I cut out the intros and outros for each episode. And the host got the order wrong, check description for series by series breakdown
Fantastic interview, love hearing all of the additional insight behind those years
Absolutely loved this interview. My love for this era will never fade, I always revisit it and especially enjoy behind the scenes stuff from that time. Having confidential on iPlayer is brilliant.
I don’t have a problem with the human characters in love and monsters, it’s the abzorbaloff. Setting aside the fact that he’s alien fat bastard, it’s like the jet jaguar situation but 33 years later where the kid made a design for a cool/scary monster and the people working on the show or movie said, well a kid submitted this so let’s redesign it to be more for kids. In the abzorbaloff’s case they made him campy and it’s strange to have an episode where a joke is made out of what a child thinks is scary next to an episode where the whole premise is that a child is doing all these scary drawings and they’re becoming real.
2:48:55 holy crap…
3:12:58
2:48:55 he just knew
Lol 😆
for those wondering this is a collection of numerous interviews (hence varying quality in audio) that RTD did for Toby Hadokes "Whos Round" podcast for Big Finish. If you enjoyed this go listen to the rest as theres one with Moffat and ones with other writers plus actors and directors from throught the 60 year run
2:11:48 this did not age well!
like wine
thank you so much for uploading this :) If only there was one with Moffat!
the audio volume is all over the place
Yes, it is.
I absolutely love this interview, and I love RTD. He should be a Knight of the Realm! My only criticism (and it is a small one) is that the sound quality isn’t great. I’d like to hear Toby a little more clearly. They are both so knowledgable and articulate. A real treat. I immediately searched out ‘Moths ate my Doctor Who Scarf!’ Thank you.
Wow, this is great!
My favorite part was when he said “Fortnite”🤓
3:13:58 That aged like wine
3:13:10 is incredible
This was such an insightful interview! You got to learn so much about the process of all 4 series of the RTD era. I always wondered about the co-writing process for the last 2 specials. RTD is my absolute hero. Loved you as an interviewer 😊
Yeah its a fantastic interview, but it's not me speaking to him - i wish!
If you havent already, you should read "The Writer's Tale" by RTD and Benjamin Cook, who wrote for doctor who magazine. It's a 700odd page email correspondence during the produciton of series 4. Vivid descriptions of what it takes to run the empire of Doctor Who, with some interesting insights into Davies' personal life and process. brilliant read!
Yeah I’ve read the writers tale. Really learnt so much about how to make doctor who and the writing process in general !
@@andrewlawless9796 Hang on, whose work is this? You got permission to upload it I'm assuming?
@@MeansofIntrigue hella permission.
And u comment on my video saying it was trash lol
JAMBA MAMBA it was
@@andrewlawless9796 but all u did is add music iver the top. At least mine was shit and only 14 seconds
JAMBA MAMBA I did more that. My video took creativity. You just took out a few lines amd tried to pass it off as YTP.
U just added music plus the quality is aporling
JAMBA MAMBA that's aporling spelling
