Doctor Who The Star Beast Review of David Tennant's 60th Anniversary Special. Imagine being Russel T Davies, bringing back David Tennant and THIS is the quality of the episode you create. There are good scenes, but you can't enjoy them because you're always waiting for Russel T Davies to punch you in the face with the message again. This episode was so full of it, even the BBC's own review of it had to call it out. Now Davies attitude to creation has changed as I showcase towards the end of the video, but this time he's funded by Disney who are no doubt full steam ahead with his ideas! Combine the two and what you get is an episode of quick fire trash. The good scenes can't save the episode, the characters don't hold the show together because they were never written as people. They were written as a another element of the preaching. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
Well I got my answer, your not finishing the wheel of time viziers so I’m out, unsubscribing
It's really hard to care about any of these ip anymore. They aren't making these shows and films for the fans.
My favourite dr who as well. RIP Doctor Who.
On a positive note, he’ll yeah, full episode review.
I actually think if you look round the back of RTD you'll find a Disney exec with their hand up his arse. He knows the lore, Davros with working legs breaks the Daleks, so why do it? Secondly, the aside about Donna's 'offspring' being a shite actor when we've watched 50 mins of 'Yasmin' showing the acting range of a spoon. I find that really odd, its almost a cry for help. It felt like a decent, mid season romp that got jumped from behind and violently buggered by the Disney Message Mafia.
I won't be watching the rest of these and may God have mercy on poor Disp's soul if he has to sit through more of this drivel.
@@RetroProg how hard is it to just write daughter omg its not like she's hurting u
"Something a male presenting time lord would never understand"
I'm going to stop you right there. That one line tells me everything I need to know about this.
Yeah, that is so freaking insulting.
What a stupid thing to say to someone who saved the world and universe many times over, lost so many friends or watched them die.
That really pissed me off too 😠
In the words of the eleventh doctor "I have lost things YOU will never understand"
Excuse me, i need to go binge watch the beat scenes from the series, to remind myself that I don’t need to care about this garbage.
Not once, in all of the years I have been watching this show, did I see Davros as "sitting in a wheelchair". One of the greatest characters and villains in sci-fi history.
No kidding. I remember seeing Genesis of the Daleks as a kid and Davros was clearly in some kind of enhanced survival unit, made obvious by the fact that it was the same design as the lower half of a Dalek's survival unit.
Wait, does that mean Daleks are all wheelchair users? Damn it, we can't make the stairs joke anymore, it's ableist against Daleks!
@@GeneralPotatoSalad, reference the 12th Doctor’s use of Davros’s chair, and laugh!
Clearly Davros was a proto dalek, he was a narcissist who thought destroying the universe would be good cos “think of the power”. He then of course made the Daley’s in his own image.
The idea of equating Davros with a cripple who has to use a wheelchair is such a *massive reach* that's it's *farcical!*
Wait, what? This is a thing? Have I missed something totally crazy 🤨
David's face when he is being lectured is the face of all of us watching!
David’s a champagne socialist who supports this rubbish.
I think in this situation he made his opinion known through his mimic.

Ugh, Donna Doctor-splaining to a thousands of years old time lord just because she "presents as a woman so she now somehow knows more than you" was the definitive nail in the coffin for this show. RIP Dr Who.
Yeah, that was particularly disgusting.
@@robm8809 Yes! That is a perfect adjective. Thank you. It just makes me think “Come on! Real women want equality. Not patronizing. This is patronizing.”
To be fair, Donna gets all of his knowledge anyways.. she sees his memories and his experiences, getting his intelligence rather than instantly becoming smarter then him through her own effort, but yeah, even back when this first started in tennants run, the whole Timelord + Human = Better then a regular Timelord is just silly. What really gets added there? Creativity? No way we have more creativity then the time lords, they have so many experiences to get inspiration from afterall
Davies saying he associates the disabled with evil is a true mask-off moment.
I want him to supply the historical evidence that wheelchair-bound people have been associated with evil.
When I saw this being posted on twitter I was like who the fuck thinks this
Yea
I saw them saying "Oh there's a LONG history of disabled characters being evil."
And my first thought was...... Since when? I can't think of a single one. The first things that come to MY mind when I think of crippled characters, ARE ALL HEROES!
Its completely insane.. I mean most of the ones I know of good not evil... obviously Prof X springs to mind straight away... the only one I can slightly think of was Blofeld in the very old bond films.. not exactly revelat today anyway
Davros was a genius who didn’t let his disability stop him. That’s a good message to give someone who has had the bad end of the stick.
Yes! Exactly! It also showed young disabled children not to give up. RTD is a coward.
But progressive leftists seem unable to comprehend that message.
Hell his invention (while horrific and evil) stands the test of time, can go toe to wheel/hover mechanism with the Time Lords and survive no matter that is thrown at them.
How many people can achieve that level of impact on the entire Universe?
Some of the best villains are heroes in their own way. Davros realised the eventual genetic monsters the Kaleds would become and made them travel machines in order to out-survive the Thals. In the end, he saved his people.
So are they going to give all the Daleks legs, uniforms and plungers?
This is heart-breaking. I always remember marvelling at the doctor as a little girl and that no matter how hopeless the situation in the episode felt, the doctor would always find a way. The way that Donna speaks to him is truly upsetting to me because it doesn't even reflect the female fans perspectives. I really don't want them to degrade the doctor because of his gender. There's so much more to him that that and it does everyone a great disservice to boil everything down to that. Plus, I feel like it ignores the fact that he knows more than then because he's a well-travelled alien rather than just because he's a man.
It’s actually disgusting, Russell t should be arrested for crimes against humanity 😂
That used to be the point of the companions right? He wanted to show the companion the universe and expand the understanding and wonderment of it. Now the companion is explaining why it really isn’t that great and he doesn’t know any better.
Remember the scene in the 50th special where Clara is crying when she is sad that she is about to see the 11th destroy Gallifrey, the point about the Doctor choosing his name comes up. That is a powerful scene, where the Doctor is nudged in the right direction by the compassion of a companion.
Compare that to the ‘we know it all and you are just a dumb man’ scene from the 60th special.
Moffat wrote for everyone, RTD writes for himself.
I knew Davies was not going to "save" Doctor Who, but I didnt think he would make it like ten times worse than it already was.
I did
Anyone who tried to watch it when he was the show runner previously should have known exactly what to expect. Since that time, his messaging has only got worse. He's never been any good at SF.
Well, do you know how they typically try to make "strong empowered women" characters seem like good characters by surrounding them with horrible incompetent men, maybe this is them trying to make people beg for more of the Jodie Whittaker Dr. They are using the same tactic, make everything you want worse than what they want to give you so that all that is left for you is to accept what they want to give you.
I did. He already stated in his original run he had an agenda. Clearly now being begged to come back he was going to demand full creative control and any checks and balances he previously had went out the window.
Oh this was no where as bad as CC stuff. This just wasn't great.
The truly scary part is not that this swill exists, but that there are people out there who actually wrote, directed and produced that swill thinking people would like it.
Not to worry, after this failure, they can always go back to pornography films.
The woke mind virus is real.
Pretty sure the writers don't care if people like it or not.
No the scariest part is that some people ACTUALLY LIKE THIS and thought it was good😳😮🤯🤪
@@BIGDaddioJohnB cause it was
The Doctor being spoken down to by a 16 year old is legitimately one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen, this is the Lonely God, a being so ancient that he has watched the universe be born and die and be born again, he has witnessed tragedies beyond comprehension, and has knowledge that was so great and terrible it overwhelmed a literal star, and this 16 year old kid is trying to explain to him that he knows nothing because he's a man, you are an ant talking down to a literal mountain, spend 3 billion years alone living and dying while punching through a wall or diamond and then tell me just how much you know what it means to let someone go!
"Something that a male-presenting Time Lord will never understand." Welp, that's all I needed to hear to know the show is beyond saving.
Yeah, it has a few fumbles like that, but I’d still give the episodes a chance; if you pirate it like me, the second special, Wild Blue Yonder is pretty damn great, if you exclude the straightest doctor apparently being gay, but it’s like a single line and the episode is just Donna and the Doctor. Really fun
It's doing better than ever so cry I guess
@@gay4sswhovian Nice, from your comment you seem like a very understanding and mature person, and not bias whatsoever
Like, I love Doctor Who and I’m glad it’s doing better than with Jodie, but saying that just because it’s doing better means it’s protected from criticism? 💀
A very good friend of mine is in a wheelchair but I always had my doubts, maybe she was a super-villain in hiding. Thank you Dr Who for reassuring me!
Next time you see her, make sure she doesn't have any hidden guns or missiles in it.
I always knew giving them ramps was asking for trouble
Always be prepared. You never know when the switch of evil will be flipped!!!!! Or that could be her parking break.
Dont let on that you know!
She might have weapon systems built into her chair and if you know you will become a threat to her rise to power and be exterminated.
I use a wheelchair, and one time I legit made a Supervillain Bucket List for myself, lol. The only thing I remember off the top of my head is "Put sharks in my swimming pool" (a la some Bond villains).
"That ship didn't crash. It parked." Such _riveting_ dialogue. Is that going to be up there with "They fly now"?
They fly now?
They're not flying, they're parked!
Hallmark of a midwit. Slightly above average, has been led to believe they're WELL above average (because all their teachers said so!), and thus thinks that anything that pops into their head is the height of brilliance and deserves to be said aloud (and applauded!).
And I don't mean the character; I mean the writers. Science fiction has always suffered from writers who think they're smarter and more educated than they really are, but these recent years, it seems to be at least more blatant.
My god. Those cars out there in between the lines!
They didn't crash.......they PARKED!
That's absolutely a line that would fit in to any Doctor Who episode, old and present.
The best line in it was, a woman can do something a man never can... Just let it go.. clearly written by someone who has never met a woman 😂
The actual answer is give birth.
@@lisakurak3733
Don't let the trans community hear you say that.
A guy and his girl friend get into a fight about nothing, within 10 minutes the guy will want to make up and get pizza, the girl will then rant about how 2 years ago she wanted to get breadsticks with her pizza but he didn’t want to spend the money on it and now pizza is ruined forever.
My husband have actually had this fight I’m ashamed to admit.
@@settame1 I want to say not all girls are that bad. I'd just make sure there's some plain cheese pizza in there. 😅
The Doctor continuously sacrifices his life, his love, his everything for humans, but he gets lectured about letting go from a stupid woman and her weird child
So wait. Does that mean, if a abled person is evil, then he associates all abled people with evil?
Only if they are straight, white, and male.
Do try to keep up.
@@khatdubell Oh, that was a good one!
That would logically follow, yes.
you should ...
The devil had legs. Think about it.
Drinker should be proud. He has officially named a cultural agenda and even the main stream media have adopted it.
Like Chris Gore of _Film Threat_ said to him: "You might think you're just one guy talking to his computer. But people in the industry know who you are; they think about what you're going to say. Some of them are scared of you."
Drinker has ascended to godhood at this point
There is great power in Names.
The definition of _tact_ , right? 😂 Good on the old boy to have had his fingers on the pulse of pop culture, and acted when he had the chance.
I’m glad that Hollywood is starting to realize that we don’t want The Message. I hope that many shows fail, so they are forced to took back on all of the franchises they have killed.
Does anyone else also think the sentence 'a male-presenting Time Lord would never understand' kind of contradicts itself? By calling him male _presenting_ , they're emphasising the fact he's not actually inherently male but only presenting as one at the moment, but for some reason he still 'wouldn't understand'. Also it's apparently okay to be sexist towards men. It's astounding to me they put that sentence in the special. It's completely unnecessary! It made me instantly dislike this Rose. Putting down others to make yourself look good is not a good look.
rose is superior to us all
Did nobody notice that Russel T Davis created Lumic the creator of the cybermen? A DISABLED MAN IN A WHEEL CHAIR! He doesn't seem to have a problem with that does he? Only characters created by other writers.
Bloody good point!
"I can't avoid seeing an evil character in a wheelchair, and imagine everyone in a wheelchair as evil"
This is prejudice, plain, simple, black and white
It is no different to the fools who look at Orcs and go "BLACK PEOPLE!"
Next you are going to say that black people are totally able to get IDs to vote. You are so racist!
Yo bro wtf you cant say black anymore thats racist lol.
I was in a line at the shops today, someone farted, I now assume anyone who uses shops is a foul pig… makes sense.
What about Mini-Me on Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery & the Minions in Minions? Weren’t these all “Little People” who are “Evil”?
I can honestly assure Davies that I've watched Dr Who for many years, initially from the Pertwee era and then catching up on the first two later. Never once had I ever, as a child, teenager or adult, associated Davros' evil nature, or that of any of the other villians, with disability. Davies is a fool.
That statement has the same energy as Wizards coming out and saying orcs aren't black. Never had that assumption Wizards why did you? If I had to compare orcs to a real world analog it would have been a characture of the barbarians faced by Rome who were mostly white or at least Eurasian.
Davies is not a fool. Davies does what he is told to do.
Also rest assured Davies' owners hold him in same contempt as they hold us.
@@gruby970 As Obi-Wan Kenobi put it: "Who is more foolish: The fool, or the fool who follows him?"
@@gruby970 Davies is a fool. I remember when Torchwood was going strong and he killed of Tosh and Owen. The fans were very upset but gave the next season a chance. Then he killed off Ianto and the backlash was huge. His response was that it was his show and he could do whatever he wanted with it. The show never recovered. The next season never had the ratings and the show died.
You would think that kind of message would sink in to a creator to know that it may be his show but without the fans the show doesn't exist but he clearly didn't learn it. He is the biggest fool there is.
If anything, Davros' disability made him a more complex character that the audience had a bit of compassion for. RTD completely muffed this.
What seems to have been forgotten by a lot of people that were excited about Russell T. Davies coming back is that some of the best episodes from his first time as show runner were actually written by other people including Steven Moffat. Begs the question if Moffat was the one who really needed to be brought back but not sure if Moffat would have played ball with BBC and disney.
Moffat was what people liked. I never realized who Russel T Davis was but Stephan Moffat somehow could turn water into wine with his writing. The best arcs, the best one off episodes, hell his other series are also brilliant.
From what I’ve heard about him personally he probably would have played ball at least a little, maybe not as much as the BBC would want though.
@@settame1Davies made 10 and revived the show, don't discredit him because of him fucking it up now, people change
The moff would play ball, he already started near the end of his run, especially with his pretty bad characterization of the first doctor, painting him as sexist racist etc when he never was characterized as those things because around the time the moff wrote it Hartnell was being called a sexist lmao
It's just occurred to me, Russell made that speech about people in wheelchairs being evil and then wrote a character in a wheelchair which is full of weaponry; maybe he's just trying to set a precedent to fear people in wheelchairs so that when the audience finally gets sick enough of him they won't break his legs (in a video game) and confine him to one.
That physical sonic shield would have been mighty useful on pretty much all of Doctor's adventures, weird how it was never used.
Right?? That could have been used countless times! What horrible writing.
also it's OP as f-ck, so stupid
@@JasonHauser125, I can believe it’s new. However, going forward, it’s going to make me think, “why doesn’t he use the sonic shield?”
In the voice of Rachel Zegler - weird... weird... LOL
Disney must have imported some of their best Marvel writers for this, I can feel it
RIP Doctor Who…even he can’t regenerate from this!
It’s Doctor WH0 now.

Xavier is in a wheelchair. Daredevil is blind. Deadpool (a good guy?) has cancer. Peter Parker is a mutated freak. Rogue is excluded from receiving and giving affection.
Good guys generally accept their shortcomings and try to live with them or make the best of it.

This episode was like watching home movies at a wake. No matter how desperately we wish they were still alive, we can't ignore the corpse in the Box! Now, I just hope I live long enough to enjoy the home videos again.
DAVROS is not in a Wheelchair….. He is in a Life supporting Machine to help Him live for 1000s of years . His eyes have failed and he is Deteriorating slowly over time.

I didn't know about the wheelchair drama but based on that is interesting that Rose identifies with the Meep only for all to discover later that the thing alone from another planet/different it is a monster. A muddled message on par with Barbie talking about Patriarchy only for it to show Ken not getting a job because he isn't qualified- even with his dangly bits.

Russel T Davies has burned everything positive he gave to Dr Who.
David Tennant, my doctor, regenerating into Smith was a giant moment, and his “death” left me with genuine melancholy. Seeing Tennant living through this torture is unbearable.

Doctor Who died years ago, anyone who has been paying attention to the past 5 years of media knows that this was a DESPERATE, LAST-MINUTE attempt to win back some of the audience before the end.
Like Arriving at Waterloo 5 minutes before the battle, trying to turn the battle in favor of Napoleon.
If their intentions were to win back fans, then RTD most definitely went against that order.

Napoleon crossed the bank and church and was surprised at Waterloo lol, lmao even.
As a disabled person born with a number of life-threatening conditions and limited mobility, what offends me most is able bodied people telling me what is problematic with regards to disabled people. Naturally, I can only speak for myself and am not some self-appointed spokesman for the disabled, but I loved the Davros character. It never occurred to me that it would be viewed as problematic. Maybe there are people who are offended by it, but I, alongside a number of similarly disabled people with whom I have spoken, are more offended by able bodied people treating me as though I should be surrounded by bubblewrap and handled with kid gloves. As far as I am concerned, Davros should be left as he was, half Dalek, half Kaled, with a motorised life-support machine, and not tinkered with just because some able bodied person sees it as “problematic”.
But that's the modus operandi of these people: Be offended on behalf of people they don't know and have never met and who, in all likelihood, aren't offended in the slightest by whatever the activists claim they should be.
Of course, these clowns have to find ever more ridiculous things to be offended about because if they stop being offended on behalf of others they'll have to get an actual job which requires actual work.
Yes! Thank you! That’s exactly what I’m referring to. It’s condescending and demeaning being the subject of someone else’s vicarious offence. THAT is something that DOES offend me, not a fictitious sci-fi villain, who just happens to have a wheelchair-like life support machine. I would be very interested to see just how many people, if any, have actually complained to the BBC about Davros’s “wheelchair bound” nefarious ways.
@@martindixon54They are not "offended". The point of the show is to push political correctness. They are not making a show for an audience.
@@martindixon54 A big part of "The message" is to convince [insert other group here] that they need YOU to speak for them, so that you can score easy points by stepping up for them and making yourself look like such a wonderful person, while making that group dependent on you because you have reach and they dont actually ever get the spotlight to speak for themselves.
This has been obvious for years. If [insert group here] was treated as equal, they would be expected to speak for themselves, access the job market on their own merit, and not need affirmative action or preachy media to "help" them. That in itself implies that [insert group here] is seen as lesser than the people doing the preaching for them.
Can you imagine handing over a weaponized wheelchair to an already "angry that I have to be in a wheelchair" person?
I was that person at 15; and if my wheelchair had had weapons, I would have used them with Davros-like glee.
Stop giving Tennant a pass on all of this. He read the script, signed on, and cashed the check. He's tarnished his own legacy by participating in this farcical tragedy.
It’s a job at the end of the day. It’s not his fault that episode was bad he did the best with what he had

Years ago, an actor would stand up and refuse to do garbage like this.
They now bend the knee to bad studios and directors and script writers.
"Entertainment" is swirling the drain.
He has a gay non-binary 10 year old son. He knew what he was doing.
@@wtech758Eccleston stood for his values
Notice how Davies says "There's a problem with Davros...."
In fact it's his OWN interpretation, his OWN way of thinking, that he means. It's how he CHOSE to see the character.
But no, he claims a "problem" existing objectively outside of his head and independent of him.
He doesn't have the self awareness - or maybe the courage? - to say "I personally didn't like old Davros". He shirks responsibility.
And yet this Davies is supposedly an adult with a job?
I must say that I'm actually mad about the actors, there is no way Tennant or Tate didn't see they were smothering something sacred that they were a part of.
*Tate was actually interviewed about this.. and She actually didn't really knew how to respond.. She gave this typical Liberal answer; Well as a mother I would always support/protect my children and so I understand the parents who are going through this situation.. where their child/children is/are Trans/Non-Binary and such..* 🤢
@@scarlett19b And what about the parents of kids who aren't trans/non-binary, but who are just going through a phase and think they are (or are jumping onto the bandwagon). They are now watching a show that validates their delusion, making their parents job of dealing with that situation much more difficult and making it much more likely that they will cause themselves damage before they realise it's not the right thing for them.
So many "trans" people end up unhappy after their transition, or actually attempt to de-transition as they realise their mistake.
Shoehorning a 20 year old adult who has transitioned into a role to play a 14 year child old who has transitioned (when the legal age to begin transition in the UK is 16) is pretty sick and gives a false sense of reality to any confused kids watching.
Tennant has already openly embraced the gender woo! His children are “non binary” . He’s fully onboard 😢
Tennant is fully into this agenda, he wears shirts advocating for trans children and has a non binary child.
Plus he'll do anything for a paycheck
@@scarlett19b I believe Tennant has an 'odd' child so its more understandable why he would have been fine with the script, but still, it would take an utterly blind fool no not understand that beating the audience over the heat with THE MESSAGE for a straight hour is simply not the way to do anything but turn people away from what you're trying to do. I'm LGB (screw those Ts) and I utterly detested what RTD has done to the show that was so important to my as a child. Theres a reason LGB(T) acceptance is plummeting right now, and this kind of force-feeding propaganda just adds to that in the worst possible way.
Okay, so i cant be the only one who found Rose's entire reason that she was non binary being because of the meta crisis ridiculously offensive and doing the exact opposite of what intended. If you want to put out a message that your identity is what matters over your physical self, don't then create a physical reason for making her that way.
Also the letting go of the Time lord dna scene made me laugh so hard.
1. Apparently Time Lords have the ability to do that, but the male presenting ones cant let their power go, that ability sure would have come in handy during the Family if Blood arc.
2. The Doctor is now a man, doesn't mean he's "forget", how to do something he could do as a woman
3. The whole message that women can let go of power but men can't is just laughable
4. Rose is non- binary as well, so why is she jumping on a woman bandwagon whenever convenient to her
5. This undoes the entire mind wiping thing from Journeys end, because apparently the Doctor never needed to do this, Donna could just "let go".
They couldn't have done a worse job of writing this, this was all i looked forward to in life since September, and i just feel cheated
Thought about getting dingy plus lucky I don't need
uhm, one thing you're forgetting. Donna was at her last moments there, and couldnt think clearly, and the doctor erased her memories before she was able to do it, the doctor basically did it FOR her, but if she remembered she would die. well, stop looking forward to it like that then, i thought the episode was god damn amazing, and funny.
Donna Noble is a totally uneducated girl from a household with a single mom who just scraped by. She was not smart as many other companions, but she was tough and had kind of down to earth street smarts. That made you forget her sometimes nerve wrecking dominant streak. Now it seems she became Phoebe Waller bridge, only that Tennant is not old Harrison Ford. What a üity. One beloved IP after the other ruined. I think Disneys culture war influence is feelt throughout all of this.
@christianefiorito3204 thank you I knew it resonated it was the Indiana Jones and the phobe waller-bridge too far.
This is an excellent comment. So many great points!
Bringing back David Tennant, just to shit on him was an enormous slap in the face. And you can tell he probably wanted to throw the script he was given into the garbage and set it on fire the moment he saw it.
In this episode, these are Russell T. Davies' contributions to minority groups:
- he tells wheelchair users that they can't create scary robots. Only a fully able person (Davros) can build scary robots.
- on top of all the difficulties that trans people face, they will now be resented for belittling and sneering at the much loved Doctor.
- If long-standing Doctor Who fans are a minority group, Mr. Davies has contributed them a reason to expand their horizons and watch something else instead.
Their “with me or against me” mentality is beyond sickening
Nuance is a world beyond them
Cult mentality, just look up how cults deal with those who disagree with them and how they exile those in their midst who question anything.
oh no, they're against you no matter how you put it
long as you're male, white
4:03 I was an ambulatory wheelchair user prior to my first neurosurgery and this cracked me up. Not only can I easily picture the mechanics of this, but I can absolutely see myself either shooting backwards or falling over (or both). Rocky ground nearly upended me; a rocket shooting out of my wheelchair would have ended me. 😂
Disparu doesn't understand how rockets work. They don't cause recoil because the propellant gets out at the rear. Now standing behind something that fires a rocket or if it's multi-stage and initially propelled by explosives (which isn't really done) that's another story.
@@kaltaron1284 I must have misheard him, because I was thinking of recoil… like when you shoot a big gun. I guess the image I was cracking myself up with in my head got in the way of my actually hearing his exact words.
@@kaltaron1284you saw the chair, right? Where was the opening for the rocket burners? They treated a rocket like a bullet, so there would be recoil. You can't blame him for their poor design choices
@@tahlia__nerds_out He didn't say recoil but there's (nearly) none so mentioning Newton's Third Law makes no sense.
@@justing7490 True to a point. Namely until the rocket leaves the tube which happens very quickly so there isn't much gas pressure. Esp. for a fire cracker like those shown.
It would be a bit more serious for real missiles which is why those have exausts.
With explosive propellants like in the usual cartriges, you get all the force immidiately instead so there's far more recoil.
There was misandry which unfortunately is now a common theme in Doctor Who, but this time round it was actually not in alignment with continuity. During Russel T Davies first run... During "The Parting of the Ways", the ninth Doctor - a male presenting Time Lord's specifically instructed Rose to "Let go". He was referring to Rose absorbing the time vortex. Which she had a hard time doing to which he absorbed the powers by kissing her and without any hesitation whatsoever let it go back to the TARDIS. Not only that, but in the same episode, homosexuality was depicted with Jack kissing the Doctor on the lips after he kissed Rose. This was not made the entire focus on the episode. Russel T Davies wanted to normalize these concepts, yet by forcing them in the 60th anniversary specials he did the opposite where during his first run he succeeded. Even during "The End of Time - Part 2", the Doctor assisted Jack getting with Alonso. Both "The Parting of the Ways" and the "End of Time" were outstanding episodes. The 60th anniversary deserved better especially from a person who's already shown to be extremely competent in delivering better. As for Davros, I like many others never saw it as him being part of a wheelchair rather him being on part of a dalek body.
Brilliantly put.... 💪🇬🇧
The sad part is all the old popular stars willing to denigrate the iconic characters they had created. I think mainly they do it for the last bit of money they get for it. The only star I can remember who did not sell out was Peter Graves when he refused to portray Phelps as a bad guy in the first Mission Impossible movie.
True, Tennant sold out as Dr Who, Chris Hemsworth sold out as Thor and Mark Hamill sold out as Luke Skywalker. The list goes on and on ... Cold hard cash wins.
A sad day when not even dragging David Tennant back can revitalise interest in this show. I remember watching through his tenure in the 2000's and enjoying just about every second. Seeing it come to this is both heart breaking and tiresome.
the entire series the past years with Jodie and wokeness and stupidity and then this episode are heart breaking and tiresome. Sadly like many series and shows, sometimes you can't recover from going down the drain and it's best to just let them flush.
describing davros as a wheelchair user is just weird, he sits in a modified dalek casing, which is basically a mini tank, which he uses to protect himself and harm others, and somehow we're not supposed to see that as wrong?
Well from what I've heard the dalek casing was based off of Davros' little transportation vehicle (I refuse to call it a wheelchair), and if a disability is the same thing as "entire lower body being ripped off in a freak accident" then Im confused
@@ebty4969 less freak accident and more nuclear weapon to the lab he was in, hence no eyes as they melted and his arm which he used to shield his face.
Also last I checked wheelchair users dont rely on their wheelchair to keep them alive.
That would be a life support system.
When i was a child the daleks scared the crap out of me but this is
The most terrifying Dr who episode i have ever seen.
Did Russel T. Davies forget that the Doctor WAS already present once at the creation of the Daleks? And why they were called Daleks? A reverse of the Kaleds, the race they originated from?
As an African-American guy in his 60s I remember watching Tom Baker on our public television here in New Jersey when I was a child. I didn’t understand some of the jokes or phrases. But I generally got the idea that the doctor was a guy whose superpower was that he was smart! the cheesy special effects and crazy costumes were not that impressive even when I was a little boy. The doctor was generally progressive. The politics of the day never was a part of Doctor Who. The show was a strange mix of Science Fiction and fantasy, and I was overjoyed when it came back with the ninth doctor. It became so popular that by the time we got to the Matt Smith era a decent amount of Americans were watching the show. I stuck around for Peter Capaldi, because I grew up with the doctor being a older British gentleman. And the doctors always been a goofball. After a few seasons, Peter became the doctor. You never knew what he was gonna say, and he was genuinely funny. I’m not a sexist, or some Internet troll in the Manosphere so I didn’t care if the doctor was going to regenerate into a woman. I thought Jodi was good at her job, but she was given such crap to work with. The Rosa Parks episode was absolutely awful. The costumes in the settings did not look like the south, and it was rewriting history. Rosa Parks was a political activist, who planned with local civil rights organizations, an act of civil disobedience when she refused to give up her seat. She was not the first woman to do so. Another activist had done the same thing several years earlier unsuccessfully. The scene where Jodi’s companions, one black and one Indian go to a restaurant, and sit down at a table is absolutely outrageous. They would have been beaten up arrested, and possibly sexually assaulted not only by the townsfolk, but also by the police. We are talking 1970s South African apartheid era hatred. Personally, I’m a Democrat. I like the idea that everybody can overcome their differences and that there is no hierarchy in race or nationality. It’s the Star Trek political point of view. I don’t have any hatred against the LBGTQ community, but I don’t understand why Donna couldn’t just have a daughter or a son. Why did it Hass to be a trans daughter? There’s something strange going on, and this show proves that it’s international. We’re not talking about religion or politics. We’re talking about the basic idea of men and women. Doctor Who is supposed to be a show for young people.
Funny thing is, there's an episode of British history they could have chosen rather than butcher one from the US. Most people have heard of Rosa Parks but few of the Bristol bus boycott of 1963. It's worth a search. It's something close to my family history as I'm from Bristol, was born in 62 and my dad had just started working on the buses when it started.
doctor who for young people?, considering the horror voilence and insanely dark themes this show aint for young people, its more for mature audience or of all ages
I think very few people took issue with gender-swapping the doctor because they hate women, as opposed to the far more obvious reason that he has been consistently portrayed as male for over half a century. Crying sexism and misogyny has been the go-to excuse for progressive activists whenever their ideology-laden reboots and sequels and retcons get rejected by fans, and it is tiresome whenever people still give credence to this lame narrative.
If the agenda behind all these race and gender-swaps, all this diversity and representation, didn't also come with a load of baggage as it relates to what types of stories can be told, which demographics are and aren't allowed to be villains, etc. I daresay people would be more open to a female doctor. As it stands, it means that the IP has to be put into an ideological straightjacket, so people are justifiably prejudiced against it, because we've seen this play out half a dozen times with various IPs.
TL;DR: The people that treat diversity and representation on screen as a political aim cannot complain when people recognise that this political push for diversity always comes with additional ideological strings attached.
I hate to say this man, but your chosen political ideology is the one that laid the groundwork for this nonsense and continues to not only push this age-inappropriate gender and sex issues on kids, but is fighting to hide it from parents.
@@rangopistacho6928 yes doctor who was a family show, young people included. Believe it or not young people could watch doctor whos timid dark themes quite easily lol.
I haven't cared about Doctor who in years but my sister was a huge Doctor who fan and she was so excited for the old writers and actors coming back. What a slap in the face
I was mildly interested. 10 was my favorite doctor, and after the trashfire that was 13 I figured they were diving hard into 'let us win you back' I was wrong.
The show died when Peter Capaldi was leaving. It was starting to "turn" towards the end of his series run. Then the BBC heard the word "Woke" and...Well. They took a great show and polished it into the dullest of turds.
Hiring writers that are woke, weak, appologists will never create entertaining, wholesome or historical programs. Just think of the classics that wouldnt be made today. Only fools, Red Dwarf, The Young ones, Bottom, Are you being served....NOT ONE of these shows would even be considered now. and our television is worse for it.
Doctor Who is dead. Introducing: Doctor Jake.
Good cause you ain't a fan lol
People getting mad over this episode makes me laugh because those cringe Moments have always been in the show always people are just now noticing and it’s hilarious
If someone is very strong and is saving world out of their free will because they're good person then literally everybody wins. There are no downsides to it unless you're selfish and want that power for yourself. If world is literally ending and someone says "Don't worry I got it" then not only world is saved but also I don't have to do anything about it, this is best case scenario
The saddest part is the change between The Dr and Donna. They were originally wrote as being best mates who bantered with each other. Not in this episode. 😔
My wife is physically disabled because of a lifelong, painful, progressive disease: she was more offended by the guy explaining how they had a problem with "associating a disability(wheelchair) with evil."
It makes her feel like they are isolating her and saying "don't worry sweetheart, we will protect you" while patting her on the head.
She is a big girl. She knows that people are not going to see her wheeling through the grocery store and say, "LOOK MARGARET! ITS ONE OF THOSE EVIL WHEELCHAIR FOLK!"
She makes the point that by that logic, Dr. Evil ruined the perception of bald people.
Imagine this: Producers and writers put together a story with characters that fill the story with life. Nobody thinks about what color or gender they are going to be. If making them sub-saharan African makes the story better, BAM! Put a black person in there.
If a woman brings rich plot, BAM a woman.
If an Asian le$Bian brings excitement. bam
If a wheel chair bound trans woman adds to great character development, BAM!
Equality doesn't mean crow barring "marginalized" people into the story to do them a favor.
Equality means the story and casting is done WITHOUT having any bias towards any group because of the marginalized community they come from.
We need to knock this crap off.
The irony is that they write woman as being annoying and obnoxious and they have no problem with that.
They just want to piss off "the little people" and they don't care how they do it.
LOOK MARGARET! ITS ONE OF THOSE EVIL WHEELCHAIR FOLK!" that's good lolz
Put a chick in it, and make it gay. Cartman was right they are all pandering.
We need to understand that we are in a cultural revolution. They are destroying EVERYTHING this way.@@fictiontheorizer4253
I think the notion that wheelchairs specifically, or even disabilities in general, have been associated with villains is absurd on its face. If anything, disabilities in fiction are usually used to make a minor character immediately more sympathetic to the audience as a down-on-their-luck underdog. Now you can make the case that disfiguring facial scars, a missing eye and ugliness are typical bad guy features, but it is ludicrous to try to extend that to wheelchairs. It requires effort to make a wheelchair-bound character seem menacing, so you don't get many handicapped villains.
It's one of those things where they have to make up new injustices to tilt against because they've run out of real things to complain about. The end result is downright condescending in its overcorrection: having the lady in the wheelchair fire tranquilizer darts and rockets from the damn thing is peak cringe. It's not heroic, it's goofy and immersion-breaking.
The thing that upset me the most is that Donna, whom the Doctor kept talking about as 'my best friend' (and theirs was indeed a great friendship back in season 4 and later, when Ten's been talking about her in other episodes), just kept putting and dragging him down and denigrating him - and that is most certainly not a thing a good friend would do. And to do so in such an obnoxious and smug way, oh, the sheer hubris! Well, I knew after the words about not retconning the Timeless child crap that that ship's not gonna be towed into dock for repairs, but I didn't think they'd manage to sink it into Mariana trench with crappily undoing one of my all-time favourite bittersweet stories of New-Who, the story of Doctor-Donna friendship. I'm not even sad about DW anymore, I guess I'm just… finally completely numb about it.
Yes. Donna was a stern lady but only derided the doctor when he earned it
The sensitivity readers on RTD's team have never had a healthy friendship with another human being between the lot of them. Seeing one depicted on screen would be traumatic for them.
I genuinely don't understand how anyone can have fond memories of the original run of Donna. She was an insufferable bint of a character long before they decided to deify her for having XX chromosomes. The combination of being really dumb and really loud and obnoxious truly made Donna the on-screen equivalent of fingernails on a chalkboard.
I feel bad for Tennant because his doctor was a charming character, but Donna? You can't ruin fond memories of a character if there never were any to begin with.
did you never watch the first run with her? she was a fan darling, and I always hated her for being a harpy of a woman, constantly talking down to a literal god.
@@AliRadicali right? literally the only heart touching moments she had were in her final episode, and even then it was more to do with wilfred then it was with her. Old will and the doctor had more chemistry then a 1000 Dr. Donna's
I rolled my eyes so hard when they speeched at the end
I am A Queer Woman and I didn't really understand what was going on? Like they tried to do their normal scifi bullshit with gender stuff, and since I understand all of the words they use, it makes it clear how nonsensical it is because they don't use them in a context that could possibly mean anything.
Instead of celebrating the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who, I feel like I'm at its eulogy.
RIP
I mean to me, there isn't a 60th anniversary.
The Doctor ended with 12 for me.
Guess this year of entertainment milestone anniversaries have been shit.
@@redreaper3065the Valeyard won in the end.
Watched this with a friend who is not totally woke but certainly more than I am and we were both in disbelief, both of us laughing and also stunned how bad this episode was. The show should just be taken out of its misery at the point.
Before, when the show was charming, the campiness was endearing. It was obviously a low-budget project made with a lot of heart. But now it's a low budget project with a lot of preaching, like a church play.
Watched it with my gf who is def more understanding with the times than me and just watched all of dr who last year with me. We were both stunned like what the hell is happening. Very disappointing for the both of us.
Put in the vault until some great writer, years later decides he wants to reboot it again. Hopefully the budget is better by then
It really needs the Old Yella treatment.
After all 3 episodes, my reaction was 'they brought David Tennant back for this?'
I find it funny that Rose said the Doctor would never understand, even though ten years earlier, our time, he absorbed the time vortex from Rose and directed the energy into the TARDIS. The Doctor would have known what to do in this situation. He certainly would have figured it out. Rose thinks she knows more than a being who’s been alive for millions of years😂😂😂.
You mean 20 years ago
I'd say making a force-field with a sonic screwdriver isn't necessarily a problem, since it was always basically magic.
The problem is that you can't just introduce a function like that so late in a series when there are probably a billion instances where he should have used it in the past and just didn't. Changes like this retroactively make characters stupid.
It would make more sense if the Doctor had installed nanotech safety features into Donna's house, on the sly.
Nu-hoo sonic is harry potter wand. Old who never was
What is the betting this extremely useful feature will never be used again?
i liked it, i thought its better that the sonic actually has more functions than door unlocking. its cool and new.
Brand new era = Brand new sonic = Brand new features
I love how the producers didn't have the courage to put Tennant in his predecessor's clothes but regenerated the outfit too.
Because Terfs, and other morons would complain, because of all the hate the UK gov and media is pushing.
Very telling
@@SteveyTheEx-Eevee And yet, it really wasn't unisex at all. No man in their right mind with ANY self-respect would cosplay as Jodie Whittaker.
Personally I don't have a problem with them featuring the return of a rarely-used feature of regeneration not seen since the first one back in 1966. The Doctor's clothes changed in that one, too.
@@filthycasual8187 Did they change in-universe, though? In Power of the Daleks and in Castrovalva when they gave Peter shoes instead of Tom's boots I would have put that down to costuming errors rather than the clothes changing as part of the story. The 2nd Doctor even makes a point of saying things don't fit him since he has a new body, so you would have thought his regeneration would have done a better job giving him clothes that fit if this was the case!
@@filthycasual8187 Not only would no man cosplay as Jodie, but even though the other doctors' outfits are rather "masculine," women would look perfectly fine in them. I've seen women cosplay as 10 suit and all and they always look great. Maybe they should stick with masculine clothing cause it _is_ actually unisex lol
"That's how we can now it's a bloke. He reverse parked". I died 😂
04:41 OMG! Yasmin Finney has a bigger Adam's Apple than David Tennant! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And THAT is saying something!
I feel bad for those who actually had hope for the New Dr. Who? They should have known what was coming. Russek T Davies clearly drank the Kool-aid, and this was never going to be anything better than a trash fire extrodinare.
Three years ago I got my mom into Doctor Who and started with David Tennant. Now she’s a huge fan of that version of The Doctor and was willing to give this new who a try. Once I told her what was in this new episode she was so sad so we went on a binge of The David Tennant series for the whole day to make her feel better lol
I didn't know it was coming. I've seen RTD's episodes before, and some of them are my absolute favourite of all time (like Midnight). There was no woke propaganda in any of those as I remember them (and if there were, at least they where subtle and didn't affect the plot), but this... what even is this sht? It's not Doctor Who, I'll tell you this much
RTD wrote some of my favorite episodes ever in 2005 and 2006, he once had the ability to write entertainment first and foremost. Whatever he's writing now isn't the same if no one's editing his work they need to!
@@PD-ws4td I agree
@@Danimeows true
You know the writers hate the fact they couldn't write with a female doctor and show their sexism at full force
1000%
Something that I don't hear much about is the obsession with power, all of these shows have characters either talk down to people in power to empower themselves, take down someone in power to take that position of power, or simply be given power for nothing only so they can hold it over others heads and the man's they give up their own power. Saying s*** like you should give up your power as that's the morally right thing to do according to them feels really Hollow when they've done nothing with that power. And if we compare it to the doctor he's never used the fact he has power to talk down to others unless that person was a threat of villain and Monster here we have people who suddenly have massive amounts of power and intellect supposedly and they are instantaneously made into arrogant tyrants almost thinking they are above the person who they know has sacrificed so damn much for them. It's very infuriating. Something else that I like to think is that like we never saw the doctor's gender be an issue before and all of a sudden they're implying his intellect actually went down because he has dangly bits people who have all the knowledge in the universe really think brain matter is sacrifice to make a man's nut sack cuz that's the implication I got I know they're both wrinkly looking but come on
One of the best superhero movies ever made is "Unbreakable" and the bad guy in that movie sometimes uses a wheelchair. Never in my life have I ever thought "People in wheelchairs are evil", even when I saw as a young kid. People who aren't stupid can actually seperate external factors from the character and look inwards to see what actually makes the character evil, scary, good, bad ect. We don't need the collective handholding where studios think we can't look at a bad guy with a disabillity without thinking "wow people with *insert disabillity* are bad guys in real life"
Or in "Kingsman: The Secret Service" I never thought "wow, people with prosthetic limbs are bad guys (other than Oscar Pistorius of course)
When I hear the phrase "male-presenting" my eyes glaze over so bad I think I'm a donut for 3 days
The spite the writers are projecting through the screen is astonishing, they are like children: "If I can't have the show my way, I'll just ruin it for everyone. Haha."
Like Luke Skywalker, they brought back a beloved hero to destroy him, to ruin his memory for all future generations as if it's deserved. "Oh, you liked him, did you? Well, look at him now. Not so great after all, was he?" Childish jealousy because he was better than anything they can come up with. Because their new heroes are pitiful weak jokes compared to the old ones.
It's takes real skill, if that is the right word, to come up with lines as crass and as cringeworthy as:-
"Something a male presenting time lord would never understand"
"Excuse me, did you just assume it's gender?"
You can only assume they do it on purpose to offend as many people as possible. A million Who fans cried out and groaned in unison.
Of course they do it’s code for this won’t stop we own your kids the future is NWO global comunism and your kids there kids will be forever enslaved to it
"I was too busy clapping at the _virtue_ - I couldn't hear the dialogue" lmao 😆😆🤣🤣
Are we sure the woman on the wheelchair isn't evil? I think she is at least evil-adjacent
What a stupid question. Of course she's evil! Haven't you paid attention to the episodes where the evil guy was in a wheelchair?
She seems to enjoy hurting people.
She is the Masters latest incarnation.
I mean did she ever say she was evil or did someone assume her label....
What amazed me about the lady being a wheelchair user us that it implies that she is a paraplegic who at one point crosses her legs when she is talking to the Doctor.
You can never go wrong with a "dead parrot sketch" reference.
it has ceased to be!
I like how they couldn't have a "disabled" davros as it might offend someone who thinks that because davros exists, all disabled people must be evil,that was a unique one, then only to have someone in a wheelchair who knows everything, is prepared for every scenario and never gets anything wrong to the point that people felt the need to apologise for stairs existing, genuinely don't understand how something so patronising and insulting could come from the mind of anything other than a bigoted bully.
The Meep is a Furby and no one will tell me otherwise.
Donna's husband is hen-pecked, her granddad is locked away in an old folks home, and she gaslit her underage son into believing he's a girl. Donna is the misandrist villain for this, right?
That's not Donna. Until I'm proven. Otherwise, my headcanon is that it was a Zygon.
isn't she the evil b. from The Office?
@@WillofDD, that makes sense!
She was a skrull
@@WillofDDeven Zygon's aren't that evil.

I've been watching Dr. Who for over 50 years. It was fantastic when it was brought back after its long break and it seemed to just keep getting better. Unfortunately the 'woke' messages that the BBC (and Disney) insist on cramming down everyones throat, at the expense of a good storyline and characters, has ruined the programme. Viewers are treated like idiots - no more subtlety or good story telling, we're supposed to sit and be lectured. The first of the 60th anniversary editions was a shining beacon of everything that's wrong with the BBC (I could barely get through it). It's not representative, it has an activist agenda and it's insulting to anyone with a glimmer of intelligence or creativity. It's also incredibly short-sighted, with a total lack of business acumen, as Disney is discovering. We might have to wait a few years, but I see a glimmer of hope as more and more people are turning their backs on this woke messaging. The winners will eventually be the ones that make good quality programmes for their audience/fans and who take the time to understand the ethos of the programmes and what is wanted by the audience. I'm definitely supportive of evolving storylines and pushing boundaries, but the BBC (and Disney) seem to be devolving - serving up dollops of unsubtle 'woke' with every programme and treating their audience like pre-schoolers (take note BBC (and Disney) - many of your audience are equally, or more, intelligent than you). It would be far better if they took the time to understand the demographics of the country and their audience and be truly representative of their viewers. At least get back to good story telling ! Good bye Dr Who, the BBC and Disney.
Love it how when you read through the article on it, the only part of 'The Message' that was highlighted was 'The Mess'. Seems quite fitting
We need to start associating having two arms with being evil. Most villains have two arms after all.
We need to start associating modern media producers with evil.
They also have faces, he's correct. I like everyone else associates faces with evil cz one bad guy has a face.

The best part of the show was when Donna said her daughter couldn't act, I was sitting there thinking 'and neither can the actress playing her.'

I never thought stephen hawking was evil. but now rtd pointed it out to me....
glad i never read his books of pure hatred
I'm glad people are talking about how awful it was, I was so shocked when I watched it. I don't get why they destroy a good show like this. I stopped watching after Capaldi, not that I didn't like a female doctor, the writing was just awful and I came back for Tennant, had high hopes and got this absolute mess. I get nowadays you have to be inclusive but I think they already did a good job with that before where LGBT+, POC and disabled characters were actually implemented and had a part in the plot without their gender/sexuality or whatever having to be the only character trait of those characters. I was cringing at how forced it was, it just seemed like they went over a checklist of stuff they have to include to not get canceled. Absolutely horrible, thank you for coming to my Ted talk
I gave up on the show early into Capaldi. I'm more eager to watch a video of you discussing your favourite episode(s) and elaborating on it.
Mine is Silence in the Library, where the Doctor's wife River Song makes her first appearance. A friend introduced me to the show. It actually upset me since the deaths of the explorers was so dark and terrifying. To die so quick, your last thoughts echo in a creepy pseudo-living final moment.
I actually thought Russel T Davis could save Doctor Who 😂 How wrong was I
So disappointing 😮
He's absolutely worse than chinball
He could have if he wanted to. Coward.
Well, wokeness was announced from the start and Disney is involved. I'm honestly not surprised that it was bad. But atvleast it felt like I was watching Doctor Who unlike the Chibnall era. Still bad though.
@@SchultzDorinda
I've not seen it yet... And based on this video I have no plans to watch it... Even with David Tennant involved.
The bad guys are usually more badass and much cooler than the actual hero. So they're basically telling us that a disabled person can't play a badass character!?
yeah they can only be a diversity placeholder now. Hey it's better than with dwarves
Mein Doctor, I can walk!

WTF!
Fab video, it's exactly how I feel! Also, I can honestly say that I've never looked at Davros and thought 'Oh, that poor disabled man'. I always thought it was just that he was half Dalek! :D
I loved seeing Tennant back, and my favourite scene was when he brought back Donna's memory and they were back for that small moment to being the Doctor-Donna. But blimey, THE MESSAGE rammed into it made me sad. Yasmin's acting was horrible (first episode Willow-esque!), and the mum-hugs were more like she was hugging a fan or something. The Doctor being chastised and belittled for simply being a 'male' made me want to cry. And honestly, 'we're female and so we can just let it go'?! Women are the last people to let it go, and I can say that because I bloody am one!
The Welsh have a word 'Hiraeth', which generally means the deep yearning for a home to which you might never return, and I can honestly say that I have hiraeth for Doctor Who. Please do a review of the whole episode, Dis, because you're awesome.
13 started with 10.8 millions views and ended with 5.3 million. If the specials started with 6.3 million they are still 4 million short of her best, which is a tragic death knell. Comically sad but hailed as a victory by them…
I thought Tenant was going to be some sort of mid transformation, midlife crisis thing... not an official "new" Doctor with and old face. So now we have a Doctor whose only purpose of existing is to try and bring back the old audience through nostalgia. Ironically because of all this I can't even go back to re-watching old episodes knowing what becomes of one of my favorite shows... RTD took my nostalgia and waterboarded over a bamboo tree while it was slowly penetrated and died.
Of course we want a full episode review!!!
I don't watch barely anything on TV anymore, just these reviews...
Donna would have never talked to the doctor like that. They were best friends. She had no issue calling him out. But, talking down to him and sayin she would have prefered him as a woman makes no sense to me. There was genuin love between these two characters. That wasnt love.
I’m not even a Who fan, and I’m appalled at how this was supposed to be the commemoration episode of the 60th anniversary. Absolutely disgusting. At least, we can’t blame Disney for this franchise failing. BBC has done a good job of doing that on their own.
Disney recently started to help produce the show. They even helped in this 60th anniversary special.
Day of the doctors was and will always be the best anniversary episode ever! This I watched just to see my favourite era of Doctor Who to be walked on like it was nothing
@@joshwheeler9700no they don't lmao they only have streaming rights
Yeah we can’t blame Disney because they have no part in the creation of this episode whatsoever except for the budget
And as a Doctor Who fan I love the episode it felt like some of the older seasons of the reboot series
Russel T Davies fought tooth and nail for the priviledge of running this show straight down to oblivion. Like, "If anyone is going to kill th Doctor, that has got to be me!"
He didn’t kill the Doctor, he made a pretty good special
@deadpooldan9862 the Doctor is as much alive as the MCU and Star Wars at this point. Sure, there are people making "content" using their respective IPs, but we no longer care.
@@dementesf thank you, this is true. They’re all far from dead, and the true fans still care
@deadpooldan9862 True fans will always care, and will always watch, even if just to criticize later. Thing is, fans are a minority. Normies are what franchise need to cater to in order to thrive. And normies just don't give a fuck anymore.
The fact that RTD has just ignored actual wheelchair users who have commented on his posts about their problems with the Davros change, saying it’s patronising says it all.
There are a few channels on YT that are gushing praise all over this. I can only think that they watched something completely different to me in that case.... And as for the Furby with a squeaky voice, my 8 year old daughter said it was just stupid.
