    Thank you for such an overwhelming happy response!
    Part two is currently lost! (Just like missing episodes haha I wanna cry) My hard drive needs to be data recovered and I didn't back it up! Hence the delay... I'm saving up as we speak and if you want to help get it out quicker, I've linked my patreon and my Ko-Fi in my bio and on my page! Thank you and sorry for the delay.
    (Edited)
    This is just a lil fun video to show your friends to get them back into the show or even for yourself! Also, I edit a scene of Bessie the car to Charli XCX Vroom Vroom, so I'm sorry doctor who fans who are constantly on the internet getting angry if I said traken wrong in this goofy ass video, miss-spelt "Until" and said they/them too many times. Don't think this video is for you! xxx
    But of course, thank you again for the nice and wonderful comments! Like and subscribe of course and stay along, there will be some more fun videos after these ones 😎💙

      There were 2 Dr. Who movies made starring Peter Cushing. You haven't mentioned them. The first one ,Dr. Who And The Daleks gives the account of Dr. Who inventing the Tardis. Cushing has gray hair and is not a Time Lord. The second one has Dr. Who ( Cushing) encountering the Daleks in Dr. Who And The Daleks 2150. These should be included if you want a complete history..

      An absolutely fantastic video. Started watching with the newest seasons (2000 and on) and have always wanted to go back to understand how we got here.. there isn't another video that I have seen that has been so concise and informative when it comes to this. With the recent announcements of doctor who it has sparked my interest to start watching again and this was exactly what I was looking for. These things take time and i'm honestly excited to see part 2. Love the style, love the jokes, keep it up!

      I never thought about that before but it's so interesting to think about, with daleks obsessed with 'purity' while cybermen seek 'progress.' Interesting, however, that the daleks consistently seem so much more powerful than the cybermen, even the far future cybermen who are so ridiculously dangerous that a single one is reason to blow up an entire planet.

    One of the coolest facts about Doctor Who is that it's still going because of its fans.
    As in, the fans who grew up with the show are now _actually_ in charge of it and even brought it back on air after cancellation.
    Some became writers, some became directors, and some even got to play that amazing character they always dreamed to be.
    And they're doing an amazing job (not all of them).
    I'll be there for the 100th anniversary. And I think the Doctor will still be there too.

    This is amazing! I'm so glad you mentioned the Virgin Publishing books. Tbh I'd describe the VNAs as: 'that time Doctor Who got super edgy and Ace canonically called the Doctor a "little shit"'. And it was also when for some reason, they wanted to put loads of HP Lovecraft and eldritch lore into the Who universe.
    Also on another note, the Eighth Doctor Adventure novels were the first time we had some major queer representation in Who. It was the first time the Doctor has seriously considered their gender identity and numerous companions were LGBTQ+. Also in one book Eight canonically has a boyfriend who he lives with.

    Well, the 12th doesn't come along for a while, but for a thumbnail history of Classic Who you did very well. It's really hard to cover the wilderness years and you still checked the high points. It's easy to get bogged down in all the fan productions and semi-official (but not really) movies made straight to video, the novels, audios, cartoons, etc. from when the show was off the air. The well of DW is very deep, and the wider you focus your lens it seems nearly bottomless.

    Tbh most of my minimal exposure to Dr Who came from that KLF song that apparently sampled the opening theme, as well as the Dean Gray mashup with Green Day's Holiday, and the whole topic of the missing episodes out of a general interest in lost media. Never even heard of it to begin with until the Matt Smith years iirc. Regardless, I still watched this in full after suddenly finding it in my feed and it was a lot of fun. Looking forward to the next part.

    This was an excellent recap! Thanks! Also, it’s really great that you put in an effort to properly gender the Doctor. I really think it’s okay to refer to a single Doctor as “he” or “she” since individual Doctors, even in the modern era, use “he” or “she” depending on the Doctor as opposed to “they.”
