Classic Doctors would occasionally meet up with each other like this. Usually one or more would recognise each other immediately (depending on the chronology). For classic fans this was an excellent trick as we would have recognised this trope and expected it to play out as before.
David Tennant was just born to be the Doctor. It helps that he's wanted to be an actor and play the Doctor since he was something like three or four years old. This role was the reason why he became an actor.
💜💜
Yeah, when you end up marrying the actress who played the Doctor's daughter and who is actually the daughter of the Doctor you watched as a kid . . the hand of fate might be involved.
Yessss, there is a reason David will always be my favourite Doctor 🥰❤ And with all the fan context we know now, watching the Time Crash Minisode is SOOOO much fun and awesome (and it also kinda makes Georgia's appearance in Merlin better, because I always have to think about the two of them xD)
The Tardis could look like a balloon if the chameleon circuit was working.
I always wondered this but where would the entrance to the tardis be if it disguised itself as a hot air ballon? I don’t know if they explained it in classic who or not. Would the door be placed on the ground of the basket in the hot air ballon or a door right in the middle of the basket?
How ever it works, at least the perception filter will keep anyone from wondering why someone just has a door in the middle of their hot air ballon.
@@Obbie. Never really explained. A statue was used once but no clear way to get out of it.
@@Obbie.I'd say the floor of the basket.
And we're into the specials! Starting with a solid, fun episode and the return of the cybermen!
Jackson Lake's character arc is great, albeit really quite sad, but it's nice that he gets to reunite with his son in the end, and go on with life having had a taste of the Doctor's world!
I love that this time the Doctor finally gets all of the thanks and appreciation that he never once asks for every time he saves the day! He could probably use a bit of cheer after last episode.
It's actually not all that solid, I'm afraid (which actually fits with most Christmas specials, lol).
This is all just paraphrasing a video by 'orowen', but it's still true.
At least with the Cyberman storyline. Never mind the fact that it abruptly interrupts the great and somber reveal of Jacksons story, near the end. It's another example of a writer not really understanding them.
Instead of forcing all the people to be converted into Cybermen, the king ends up just killing a bunch of them by destroying London. They don't even convert the children, once they've got the king working.
Because that's all the Cybermen are. Not aliens, warriors or monsters. They're just us. Wanting to take away all our pain by making us into them.
@@JoeThornhill Meh, I still have a good time with it. I wouldn't call it bad even if it's hardly a masterpiece like some episodes of this show.
I should say though, regarding the Cybermen going on a destructive rampage once the King awakens - they were under Hartigan's control at that point, so they weren't following the standard cyberman operating procedures of taking people for upgrade. I guess Hartigan wanted to crush some of London instead. Why she wanted that is anyone's guess, but it does explain a thing or two to consider it that way.
@@gazzamanazza4pm Yeah, I'm not really critical either, just end up learning a few things from the odd video essay (or reaction) or someone who actually has a degree in media literacy and therefore knows what they're talking about in their videos.
I also kind of forgot about Hartigan's overall influence on the Cyber king. Hell, the ending reminded me that she wasn't the real Hartigan anyway. Who know how, when and why, but she hasn't been thinking straight for years. We don't even know the real Hartigan. But then, that's the B plot that doesn't really matter, though. It IS more about The Doctor and Jackson.
Compared to the ABSOLUTE FESTERING MANURE that RTD is writing these days, this episode, honestly, seems like a masterpiece. I have no problems with it at all. Sure, it takes a lot of liberties with science, but everything is explained. Things don't happen "for no reason" (unlike in the new series).
The episode has a great concept that hooks you in, great performances, and the whole personal story is really compelling and emotional. It's a wonderful Christmas episode. RTD was GREAT back then. He revived the series so well and all these episodes were so good. It's just incredible to think this is the same man who now seems like a lunatic writing highly offensive gibberish that destroys the show and makes no sense at all.
@@Scripture-Man Can't really say I agree with you there. This era (as in 2005-2010) is my favourite of the show and the one I think is the best, but I still enjoyed the most recent season overall, at least more than I did Chibnall's time as showrunner. I don't agree with every writing choice RTD makes these days, but by and large the show feels fun to me again, and it feels more in keeping with the lore than some of the plot twists Chibnall wrote. I don't want to deep-dive into any of that here though since I don't want to risk spoiling anything for Jules as she reads the comments.
Ultimately though, Doctor Who canon has always been a pretty loose thing, and I kind of like the way RTD has structured things now, where it's almost like everything and nothing is canon all at once, so just believe what you want.
But hey, you do you, I've no right to tell you what to like. As long as you're not treading on anyone else's toes or complaining about the show having progressive politics (which it always has, since 1963), you're free to hate on the writing all you like. That said, I prefer to try and stay on the positive side, even if I'm not a fan of something. No reason to rain on others' parades as it were.
The working titles for this episode were "Court of the CyberKing", "The Other Doctor" and "The Two Doctors" which was the title of a 6th Doctor adventure in 1985 where he was joined by the 2nd Doctor. David Tenant and David Morrissey starred together in the BBC Crime Drama Musical "Blackpool" in 2004
Yes, she should check out _Blackpool._ We need reactions for that.
Yes Blackpool is wonderful and crazy. For me, the highlight was David Morrissey's character (an arcade owner) and David Tennant's character (a policeman) facing off and dancing and singing to Nancy Sinatra's "There Boots Were Made For Walking".
David Morrissey would have been a great doctor!
He still can be if you think about it. Not his character here, but the Doctor could regenerate in the future into a body that resembles him
I saw this after seeing him on the Walking Dead and was nope nope. No governor doctor.
Was a great Doctor. He's essentially an extra one and probably had a few adventures before and after this.
I picture him as a Time Lord called the Governor, myself...
Better than Matt Smith 😡
"A beatiful dark side."
I love this take on Number 10!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Isn't it delightful?! I really do like seeing that side come out!!
@@julesreacts Agreed! Absolutly fantastic!!
At 11:12 the Infostamp shows the Eighth Doctor - Paul McGann who regenerated from Sylvester McCoy in the 1996 one-off TV film . I think this was the second and clearest acknowldgement that this was canon for the new Who TV series going forward. He did seem to be in John Smith's sketch book in Human Nature, but this was less clear.
I was 14 when this came out. Was 8's canonicity ever in doubt when the show came back? I feel I remember Eccleston always being referred to as 9.
@@nathandts3401 The existence of Eight may not have been in doubt - only whether it was the McGann version. It may ( I do not know) have been mentioned in public but not "in world". I'm not even sure Ecclestone was mentioned as being Nine "in World" . To be honest I'm not sure the number was specifically mentioned in World until Matt Smith was clearly referred to as Eleven - although the infostamp depicted 1-10.
@@Llanchlo I don't recall whether I ever heard it stated explicitly or not, but it's always been my understanding that Paul McGann as the eighth Doctor IS canon, but that the events of that TV movie are NOT. In any case, whether or not it's official, it's true in my head.
@@htim8997 I don't think it matters much. I think the basic outline is not inconsistent with anything else but some of the incidental details (including some aspects of the Master) we can forget - such as the half-human bit - or perhaps that was Rule 1 anyway. Many years since I last watched it.
@nathandts3401 there were some who doubted it, saying "mcgaan doesn't count", but I think most of that was from before the revival was announced. The BBC did officially refer to Eccleston as the 9th Doctor, so that alone stopped most of the doubt.
Someone pointed something out that I never noticed before but Jackson’s companion is a combination of all 3 of the doctor’s recent companions.
The name of Rose (Rosita), the appearance of Martha and the personality of Donna.
Which makes sense since Jackson only got a snapshot of the doctor’s life and all 3 of those people may have blended into 1.
This is such a great episode and David Morrissey is great both as The Doctor and as Jackson Lake. When the Doctor tells Jackson "You've got a reason to live." and Jackson replies "And you haven't?" I get such a lump in my throat. It wouldn't be Doctor Who if there wasn't at least one moment that can hurt your heart - you are in great company, Jules :)
Little did I know when first starting out that we'd need so many tissues!!
David Morrissey did such a wonderful job in this role as Jackson Lake/Doctor that he was considered for the role when David Tennant left the show.
I love the part where he opens the info stamp and shows all of his previous faces from 1st Doctor - 10th 💖
Yes!!
I will always have a soft spot for doctor who Christmas specials. They just convey everything magical, everything poetic and i just love the way the series had been written till this point. The music score will continue to be awesome, the atmosphere and the mindfuk will increase in awesomeness. You are in for quite a journey.
Tom Baker for the win “Would you like a jelly baby”?
All this time we thought TARDIS stood for 'time and relative dimension in space.'
Nope.
Tethered aerial release developed in style.
I've always liked the fact that David Morrissey played a man who, in response to a terrible trauma, assumed a title that he didn't deserve...then did that AGAIN years later as "The Governor" on "The Walking Dead".
The one thing the Cybermen could never plan for, a misandrist.
Past doctors did appear a few times in the old show, most notably in the 20th anniversary special "The Five Doctors" which featured all the incarnations of the doctor up to that point (though the 1st doctor had to be recast due to the original actors death) and many returning companions from throughout the series history.
thats the beauty of Dr Who plays and runs with your emotions
Two David’s and Two Doctor. lol
This Christmas Special was one of my favourite.
One of my favourite Christmas specials. Love tons about it especially the doctors sadness and the villain Miss Hartigan, great performance from her actress. You might think the practice of forbidding women by the grave side was left in Victorian times but even when my grandfather was young during and after ww2 it was still a rare sight to see a woman at a grave side. It's strange to think how recent that is.
Honestly I think Jackson has the best reaction to the tardis ever
This episode was fantastic I love Jackson so much he's an excellent one off character and his story is so good the performance is amazing the one scene where they're investigating the house and Jackson takes an info stamp as the doctor looks around you can just see him sat in contemplation all of this emotion washing over him. I also adore how he echo's the doctor with the line about "having bad dreams" and having a reason to live which calls back to the doctors daughter "all those things you'd been willing to die for..I thought you'd finally found something to live for". I teared up many times through this episode Jackson just gripped me throughout also the iconic line "perhaps you could try pulling" "I am pulling in this position I couldn't not pull could I". great reaction always enjoy seeing your videos keep it up.
Every time a new upload of this reaction series hits my inbox I'm like FINALLY!! This is another serious chokepoint.
Ahh thank you!! Hope you enjoyed 💜
@@julesreacts Yes, as always! Can't wait to get into Series 5.
One of my favourite special episodes. I think David Morrissey would’ve been a great Doctor. His theme could’ve been steampunk.
This was certainly a very different role for David Morrissey, from the role he played in the second "Basic Instinct" movie. I guess that's testament to his versatility.
An underrated episode imo! I adore it, but it's not a favorite to too many people. It has several very poignant moments, and was a great red herring for the audience haha
That ending scene always brings me to tears. The fact that Jackson convinces him to have dinner, the things they say to each other. Just wow, lovely
14:34 Every time I hear 'Industrial Revolution', not only do I think of the time period, I think of the web based mini game 2k/Irrational Games had when you preordered BioShock Infinite.
17:23 Wouldn't be the Doctor if it wasn't for stuff like this.
20:53 Always thought that even though the Doctor broke the main connection with the Cybermen, there was still a little bit left and her emotions overwhelmed them and the system. But that's my theory/thought and I could be wrong.
21:46 If it was me I would feel embarrassed or awkward getting thanked for anything he does.
23:12 Yeah, this made me tear up a time or 2.
Finished rewatching The Day of the Doctor (50th anniversary special), all I will say is I think you'll enjoy it. Don't want to spoik it.
I'm currently playing Anno 1800 and it's focused on the industrial revolution so that's where my mind goes to these days 😅
Hope you have an awesome weekend coming up!
I've always liked how they used a hot air balloon as the fake TARDIS. A hot air balloon is an example of a non-physics defying vehicle that is bigger on the inside - when you inflate the balloon, it's huge, but when it isn't inflated, you can fold it up and fit it in the back of a truck.
Also, in response to "he always has the best lines": not just yet. Soon, though.
Actually, that's a lovely point about the hot air balloon! Awesome!
I forgot about this episode lol. Tennant never accepts offers for family dinners
Nerdy fun fact: this episode was the first ever I ever watch and the one that introduced me to Doctor Who and David Tennant. Because of that, this is for me an immediate 10/10 episode that I rewatch every chance I get!
Ahh I love that!!
Another great episode (and another great reaction !!!)... but then, aren't they all ??? This show is great BECAUSE it's episodic, so you never can predict what you're going to see. The Christmas (and other) specials are also one-offs that take the opportunity to do something even more off-the-wall from the normal episodes, but it just highlights the beauty of the whole series. Nothing to get bored with here, and I too, am happy that we haven't lost DT, because you're right ... he IS the perfect man to play The Doctor. Can't wait for the next one (special or episode), but it's more about getting to share them with you ... because YOU make them special 🤗😊👍.
Rad reaction as always Jules!
This is my favorite of The Specials and this is the one I commented on that I couldn't wait for you to react to!
David Morrissey would have been a great Doctor, his performance in this is first rate!
This is also my favorite story with the Cyber Men.
The balloon TARDIS is so freakin' cool!
David Tennant really gets to shine even more than usual in these Specials (no offense to any of the companions)!
Your journey Jules with The Doctor have been a breath of fresh air, your enthusiasm is infectious (in a good way)!
Keep up the great work as always and many blessings to you and yours!
Bradley!! Thank you SO much 💜 You've put such a big smile on my face which I dearly needed today! I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead 🥰
LITTLE FACT: Rosita is supposed to be an amalgamation of the three main companions we've had so far in NewWho - the name of Rose, the appearance of Martha, and the personality of Donna.
If you like that aspect of Tennant's doctor strap in J-bird. You’re in for a bumpy ride.
I've had many doctors and David Tennant is my favorite as well. He grew up a huge Doctor Who fan, so he has a unique emotional attachment to the character that makes his portrayal very special.
"...they break my heart."
Good thing he's got a backup!
hahah yes!!
For many folks, Tennant was the favorite! This is why even all these years later, he is still popular! At the beginning of this episode, I thought this was going to be an interesting take on crossover Doctor episodes. In the past, there have been episodes called The Three Doctors, or The Five Doctors, etc., where previous Doctors (or stand-ins for those whose actors have passed already...) take part in a story arc. I thought this was going to be one where the guest Doctor was one we have not yet seen, but was already "planned" as the next Doctor. I did, however, think that Jackson was too much like Tennant's version to be a new Doctor! So when they both said "Allons y" (French for "Let's go!" Literally: Let's go there!" for those of you who don't speak French) I thought that this was some sort of copycat! Also, I am with you on how the episode was just a romp until the end, when we are reminded of the Doctor's lonely existence. It was a fun episode and a wonderful reaction! Thanks!
Two of my favourite actors in a single episode :) I think David Morrissey would have been a great doctor. He's best known to North American audiences for playing "The Governor" aka Philip Blake in The Walking Dead. When I first saw it, I did not realize he was an English actor from Liverpool. When he did The Next Doctor episode, he was told not to tell anyone including his kids he would not be the next doctor. (They had cast another actor but not announced it.) Apparently his children asked "will we have to move to Cardiff?" (where the majority of Doctor Who is filmed) .
19:49
One often-missed dark detail in the episode is this line which heavily implies a less general and more specific reason for her particular dislike for men
Oh, yikes. I've watched this episode multiple times and never caught that. Thank you for pointing that out
Hi Juliette. Hope you've had a pleasant week so far.
Great episode. The opening scene that seemingly introduced a second Doctor was great fun. Confusion abound from both us viewers AND the Doctor!
Of course, there ended up being a sad story behind the fake Doctor in the end, but at least you didn't need quite so many tissues during this one.
When it was revealed that the fake Doctors sonic screwdriver was literally just a screwdriver that made noise when hit against something I was expecting the worst of his TARDIS. I must admit though, the hot air balloon actually quite impressed me!
Great reaction as ever Juliette, and may the rest of your week be a good one 💜
How did the cyberking rise up out of the river when it's a thousand times taller than the river is deep?
A great Doctor, that we never really had, but we wish we did. :)
Looking at where the show is now, you are not wrong.
@@bobthebomb1596 the show is fine now
@@TheNovaBridger If you say so.
I really wanna see Dalek Sec Vs. The Cyberking
The most creative and advanced forms of each respective race
They might just be creative enough to work together and create the ultimate enemy; Cyber-daleks
I mean, Cybermen don't have DNA, you could just drop a Dalek mutant inside the cybersuit and call it a day. Daleks with humanoid forms with fully opposable thumbs, able to run and walk and hold like no other Dalek has before... utterly terrifying.
Honestly, Jackson should have been the one to kill the Cyberking in my opinion, not the Doctor, that would have been amazing.
However, i love how beautiful the music and ending were in this one, and David's expression @ 18:27 is heartbreaking...
Loved this video Jules!
I wish david Morrissey had been the doctor at some point, he's so great in the role and has such a old school doctor outfit that works
instead of whitaker or gatwa, would have been fantastic....
@@Metzwerg74 have to agree with that, sometimes they have the perfect doctor in front of them and they just throw them away
@@phantomsidious2934 i would have liked Simon Pegg as doctor...
but they threw that away too...
He still could be when Ncuti leaves. 🤷🏻♀️
@@carlycchapman i just fear, that gatwa and RTD will get doctor who canceled with no new doctor following up...
David became an actor aspiring to become the Doctor (even though WHO had been cancelled I think before he actually started acting, or not long after), so - you could say he spent his life training for this role!
intro scene was filmed in my city :) i have some fake snow in a bag from that day of filming, sadly missed david tennant tho 😢
I remember when you said that Eccleston was your doctor. 😂
Haha yes!! I wonder if I'll get attached to them all 🤣
Oh you poor soul..just you wait until The End Of Time.
So fun fact where the children were working in the factory (The cyber king) thats actually a altered Torchwood set. I do wish also Jackson Lake saved his own son rather than the doctor doing it
One of the best of the specials. Tennet is greatly loved as The Doctor, I have to agree as he is my favorite too.
Yes, Tennant used to be my favourite Doctor as well.
Then 12 became and still is my favourite
I love this episode, it's sadly not very popular amongst fans and isn't often talked about but I thought Morrisey was a great doctor, the story of Jackson lake is so tragic, he's a great character, it's also the first time new who showed us classic who doctors which was so special at the time and as a kaiju fan I love the cyber king
Love it when they reflect back to all the previous Doctors. Tom Baker, Doctor #4, was my first Doctor and I thought he was the best. But David Tennent came about and made me rethink it. I still love Tom Baker, but David is the best. IMHO.
I can relate. Tom was also my first experience with "Who" and is still my favorite of the vintage years. But David Tennant took my top spot of favorite Doctors for a time, until Capaldi grew on me. Funny how my top-2 favorites are both Scots, both Aries.
@@anthonycaracausa9895 For some reason I never could warm up to Capaldi. Maybe it's because I was so in love with Clara. LOL
I used to enjoy Tom until the darker side of his personality, at least when it came to the show. The reason they had to use archival footage in the Five Doctors is because the BBC refused to restructure the story to make it revolve around his character, with a similar issue nixing a planned special for the show's 30th anniversary, and I think the 40th as well. On top of that is his derision of other actors who have played the role, having been quoted as saying of them, "I avoid them, you know. Not with any malice. A degree of contempt, perhaps but mildly, mildly contemptuous."
Love the next Doctor's sonic screwdriver. How's it sonic? It makes a noise when you tap it against something. That's sonic, isn't it?
I'll admit, I often overlook this episode, but when I rewatched it last year I was reminded that it's pretty good. You have to imagine what the atmosphere was like when this first aired: Most Doctors stick around for about three years, that was the average, so during Season 4 there was a lot of speculation about David Tennant leaving. The production team had fun messing with these expectations, first with the fake-out regeneration, then with this Christmas special. You can imagine that people went crazy when the title was revealed.
David Morrisey plays a perfect "Doctor who never was". Just a few years after this he'd find new fame for playing the fan-favourite villain, 'The Governor' in The Walking Dead.
The episode itself is pretty great, it's nice to see the long-awaited return of the Cybermen and the whole "other Doctor" mystery takes some twists and turns and the answers are all quite clever and satisfying. It's also nice that it's the first Christmas Special not to be set on or above present day London.
Oh and of course, this episode marks a significant New Who milestone: New Who's first Doctor montage. There are several classic stories that included these kinds of montages, but this was a first for New Who. I'm a simple man, so I always get excited by Doctor montages.
I'm glad you liked this one Jules, now I can't wait to see what you think of the show's first Easter Special next week.
Good questions for a newbie. There were several episodes in classic Who where more than one Doctor appeared but it was always the current Doctor meeting his past selves. This was the first time he met is future self.
If you like dark David Tennant, look no further than the first season of Jessica Jones. For a mostly happy-joy-joy goofball Tennant check out BBC's Casanova from 2005 (not the Heath Ledger movie from the same year). And then, of course, Good Omens.
Yes this is Doctor Who in the golden years, and the many specials made it even more special, enjoy the ride, sorry but you will cry some more, but feel assured you will laugh want to see more and more... Thanks for review, this memory of this era brought a tear to my eye too...
I'm so glad you enjoyed. Thank you!
Meh, Moffat is the golden age
For Tennant's 'dark side' you should see 'Bad Samaritan' or 'Jessica Jones'.
Love this special so much!!!! THANKS for this!!!
Oh, wait. Didn't Jamie say 'Timorous beastie' sometimes?
We haven't seen the cybermen since the end of series 2!
I have NOT missed them 😅
@@julesreacts you will be deleted!
🤣🤣🤣
You know I remember this episode, but I had forgotten the actor who played the “Doctor”.. it’s weird because I’ve associated with a completely different role. I imagine that this is what it’s like for some people with certiajn other regenerations of the Doctor and then watching them on Doctor Who… which has to be difficult.
“Should I stay or should I go” episode
Specials next.
Some of the best who stories.
To me they're all pretty good.
Nothing new to say, but always love love love your reactions!! Keep on going, I'll be watching!
Hello again Juliette it's time for more of Doctor Who and this is
going to be an interesting episode, tomorrow is Independence
Day here and it's been almost 100 degrees here in Oklahoma
take care and stay cool my friend Juliette.🇦🇺🐨👋🇦🇺
Lovely reactions, Jules.
Kieron! Thank you 😸
He wouldve been a fantastic doctor and he was 🎉some more crazy eps ahead look forward to reliving that journey again
Hey Jules, considering the buzz, have you thought about doing Lost as a series of reactions or have you already seen that show?
Hello, Jules.💜 I have to confess, I thought, my god. she's actually taking a break!... but no. I filled the gap with a rewatch of Holy Grail - just another classic reaction. 😉
Merry Christmas! 🍫
I remember my reaction to the start of this... Rosita yelling for the Doctor, even after he says I'm right here. What! What! I didn't do the 3rd one though...
Rosita - a Rose like name, and a Donna like temperament!🤣
I don't have much to add on here. I have enjoyed this, and the previous, Christmas specials. They are always very Doctor Who, but seem, as you say, to capture the spirit, before moving on. And I'm not sure it would really be a Christmas Special without a tear, or two.🥲
"... a New Industrial Revolution.." I have always been reminded of the Temple of Doom in this one - rounding up the children, driving them down, into the underground, and having them do backbreaking, hot, nasty labor, in support of true evil. But this is another Christmas, another wicked human, failing the world.
Many great moments here, the camaraderie between the Doctors. The look on your face, a the sonic screwdriver bit - it makes a noise! 😂The display of previous Doctors, many call backs, and the recap of his life with companions...
Your summation, at 26:29, was exactly right! A great statement on the feelings which Christmas specials evoke. They are great 🥰
Before I end... a fine edit on this one. I know, since they are longer, they have more info, and will be trickier to slice up, but you've done just fine here!🥰
Have a great day, Jules 💜🤗💜- Good luck in all you do! Have a peaceful evening. Game away... enjoy the original Industrial Revolution!
Tomorrow is Independence Day here, and it will be a mess, so I might opt to do some food celebrating tonight, to beat the crush. Or... I might just do what the Doctor would do... travel around, look at some stuff, whistle a bit, and maybe game away myself. 😊
Have Fun!🎇
Tom 😸💜 I did a silly and scheduled it for 7am instead of 6am! So, I had a small, unintended break indeed!
I think all of these upcoming episodes are 1 hour or more, which is LOVELY when you don't have to edit them 🤣 I've been editing like mad these past two weeks but I keep imagining how nice it would be with a cleared out editing pile, which keeps me going!
A wonderful Christmas special (Christmas in July!) and I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Tom. I do hope you have a quiet but lovely day of celebrations, with lots of food and good times 💜 Maybe you could arrange some nuts in the shape of fireworks for your little balcony buddies? They need something, too 😜
Enjoy, Tom, and stay safe 💜 Thank you for your kindness and the good mood you always leave me in. Very much welcome 🥰
Awesome video as always bud! Cannot wit till the next one!
You're absolutely right, it's sad to see a Doctor or companion go, yet we also get the joy of discovering the new one. That's the beauty of this series. As someone says in a future episode (not gonna say who, not gonna say which episode, because spoiler) : "Everything ends, and it's always sad. But everything begins again too, and that's always happy."
I can only imagine how people who grew up with classic Who felt losing Sarah Jane and later Tom Baker. They were both there for so long...
@@GeneralDingo Regarding Sarah Jane, losing the upcoming characters (the married ones) after their run would I think be comparable. It not often a companion lasts more than a season. Ian and Barbara stayed for two. Jamie and Tegan are the only companions to have stayed nearly the length of a Doctor's run, each missing out by only a story or two. Jo Grant was there for three of Pertwee's five seasons, and SJ of course had something like three and a half seasons across two Doctors. Romana is a strange one because there were two versions across nearly three seasons.
You have the best Dr Who reactions. Thanks for the making these
Wow, thank you so much!! I appreciate your kind words and for enjoying the videos 🥰
@@julesreacts in this age of doom and gloom I like to spread any good I can as long as I truly believe it.
Keep on keeping on and if you celebrate independence day I hope you have a good one (it's hard to tell where people are from for me)
Ah, so much I am excited to see you react to! i don't have the energy to say much rn lol, but yeah, enjoy!
Aww thank you for the excitement!
The 4th Doctor ( Tom Baker ) has always been my favorite but that was a long Time ago...=))
I like this story, it's a great mystery, and tugs at the heart string... My main gripe is the same with a lot of New Who - You just had a MASSIVE Cyber King killing people in the middle of London in the 1800's. Classic WHO tended to have alien invasions taking place mostly without us humans being any the wiser. I LOVED that fact. Yes, it was probably purely down to saving costs - for £20k per episode in the classic era, it's hard to shut down a city and get footage for a proper full on invasion.... But it meant that all of these stories were taking place on "my" planet - not just some fictional Earth...
What about dinosaurs in London? The Loch Ness monster attacking the Thames? Or Yeti on the London Underground?
@@mayotango1317 Yeah, ok, got me there, and beautifully done!
i like this episode and always love your reactions!!!
for more david tennant you could check out good omens or broadchurch which are both fantastic, and he plays a villain in jessica jones if you'd like to see that :)
This special is the one I re watch much more than any of the others
Excellent reaction as always.
I appreciate that very much!
another great reaction from you jules ....ty :)
Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed!
I love Rosita so much! If there wasn't... well, an obvious difference in race, I would suggest that Rosita could be an ancestor of Rose, because they are SO similar, but for once in Doctor Who, I don't think there is a connection 😅
(Not a big fan of tis episode in general, but Rosita is awesome! 😅🤣)
They broke his hearts :(
I love this episode!! It's not too fondly considered by a lot of fans but I can't understand why... its great fun, David morrisey is great as the Dr and we even have a giant cyberpunk cyberman at the end!!
Another fantastic reaction. I love how much you get into this show, Jules. I honestly look forward to each reaction Doctor Who reaction video by you.
Now i know you havent been watching The Sarah Jane Adventures however The Sarah Jane Adventures series 3 episodes 5 & 6 might be worth checking out as they tie into some of the upcoming Doctor Who episodes you'd be reacting to over the next few weeks.
Thank you!! I am SO glad you enjoy the episodes 😸 I definitely need to watch Sarah Jane and Torchwood at some point for sure!
I loved your reaction to this one.
Thank you so much 😸
5:31 Lol love it...
At the time that this episode originally aired it was already widely publicized that David Tennant was leaving the show. So, calling the episode "The Next Doctor" was a serious bit of misdirection that implied he might be regenerating here. I wonder if that misdirection might be a part of why this episode is not as highly regarded as some others from this period.
This episode reminds me how immortality or even extremely long lifespans like the Doctor's can be a true curse. How else could you be over 900 being friends with compartively short lived species like humanity and not have your heart broken from losing friends?
The Seventh Doctor had 957 years and never complains.
This actually could have been a Harry Potter crossover episode.
The story would have seen JK Rowling in the middle of writing her new Harry Potter book until an alien device turns her characters real.
David Tennet saw it as fan fiction and declined.
This is what the episode turned into.
Ah, this episode. The Jackson Lake half of it is one of my favourite things the show's ever done, and the Cyber-King half is... not. If they'd done something a bit more grounded - like S1's Dalek episode, maybe one or a few Cybermen terrorising London - and kept the Doctor mystery the main thing, it would have been perfect.
But that's the Russell T Davies era of this show in a nutshell - one minute it's some of the best television ever, and the next it's absolute nonsense. And that's a good thing!
Also, if you liked Tennant and David Morrissey together, you should look up the show Blackpool - it stars Morrissey as a dodgy arcade owner, and Tennant as the detective who suspects him of a murder. Oh, and it's a JUKEBOX MUSICAL.
Ok, you speak about it here at the end. And I remember, I chose not to say what I'm about to say now on the last video, but I realized now that it wouldn't make sense for me to not say it.
I just wanted to say that I have a feeling that David Tennant and Donna are going to remain your favorite Doctor and companion.
It's just a feeling I get based on seeing how much you love them and not based on me knowing what lies ahead. And my main point for saying this now is: What's waiting gonna do for me? 😅
The show is still RUNNING! There could still totally be a new Doctor, that *I* don't even know of yet that's going to completely throw off my theory....
So, yeah, for the time being, I THINK, 10 will stay your favorite....
Honestly, I think you're right! I adore the 10th Doctor and Donna with all my heart(s) 🥰
@@julesreacts Just know, you're in good company. 👍🤝
The 10th Doctor is probably still the most famous one overall worldwide.
He's not MY favorite. I actually have two different Doctors who have a special place in my heart(s). 😅
One of them is my FAVORITE Doctor.
And the other one... is just "MY" Doctor. The one that can never change.
Favorite Doctor can change for me and it already has once.....
I'll mention it when the time comes. Same as with favorite Buffy episode and season... 👍
I think Moffat will give you surprise.
It is now a series of specials until the next season.
Yes, let's gooo 🙌
I think it's a truism for all of us in our lives. All the people we meet, know, love, lose. They all break our hearts. We break their hearts. For a timelord this fact is magnified by many orders of magnitude over their lives. Just to think of it this way Jules, you've only had the peak in through 9 and 10. They've only hinted at all the previous companions and doctors so far. 907 years old. That's a lot of life.
The specials that follow, I haven't watched any of them, except for the last one, since they originally aired. I'm looking forward to this as its been about... 14 years, roughly?
Unfortunately I already knew the future of the series enough to know that this episode was a little misleading, but still a fun one nonetheless! David Tennant is one of my favorites as well, my other favorite is the Fourth Doctor from classic Who. It does hurt when Doctors change or companions leave, especially when you grow so attached. Looking forward to the next episode, thank you as always!
À lot of people didn't get that it is extremely disrespectful to wear the colour red at a funeral.
Did you enjoy the old doctors lol 26 years of classic waiting for you after this lmao
Yes 😄
Every Doctor Who fan has a favorite Doctor
(and depending on how old they are, possibly two).
Hell, some folks even like the Sixth Doctor.
@@estoy1001 Not hard to love Six if you’ve listened to any of his stuff on Big Finish. Jubilee is one of my new favorite DW stories.
@@Gojirawars03 ...See?
