    The 5th Doctor's sonic WASN'T updated to give it a white ring. The paint slowly flaked off of that particular ring of the prop - you can watch it progressively coming off during the course of it's usage - particularly in Tom's later series, but even as early as Jon Pertwee's "Monster of Peladon". It did get a repaint during Tom's last season, but the ring was already either in full white condition, or close to it.

    The sonic lance is specifically intended as a cutting tool, and one of the interchangeable heads on the Fourth Doctor’s screwdriver was a lance head. Also, the black cap on the 9th/10th Doctor’s sonic doesn’t cover a charging port. According to the _Doctor Who Visual Dictionary,_ it actually covers a secondary sonic emitter.

      Bella Swan I _heartily_ disagree, and so do most people from what I can tell. The majority agree that while series 11 and 12 have been pretty crap, it’s not because of Jodie, but rather because of poor writing and showrunning. Jodie is actually a pretty good Doctor, she’s got the fun goofy energy of Tom Baker and Matt Smith, but she can manage to be serious when the moment demands it.
      Even if you don’t like her performance, it’s disrespectful to not give her the title. She _is_ the Doctor, whether you like it or not. There are a couple Doctors whose performances I didn’t really like either, but that doesn’t give me the right to go around saying they weren’t even a valid actor in that role. It’s rude.

    A little thing I like about War's screwdriver is the little slant by the fez-end with a tiny lens on it (I'm not sure of that is also on the 4th's but I digress).
    I like to think of it as a sort of projector, in that the user would activate the screwdriver and then look into the lens to learn what it has scanned, much like how 11 would open his to look at it's inner chamber.

    The 9th/10th is my favourite because I also grew up on that one, and the cracked coral finish fit so well with the coral TARDIS interior, it actually looked like something the TARDIS would create in its own image, it's just the right amount of interesting without being too distracting, and the extending end worked really well to make it more compact when not in use which helps to sell the idea of the device being functional. I do like the 11th and 12th ones too, but Jesus Christ is that a mouse scrollwheel on the 12th Doctor's Sonic?! I guess even the Doctor isn't immune to scrolling through ...Twitter...? *shudder*

I'm convinced half the reason Jodie points it so dramatically is because the physical shape compels you too - the ergonomics lend themselves really well to gripping and pointing. I'm also a big fan of the fact that the emitter crystal spins, and how the sound design includes a slight metallic ping as it clicks on and off. Makes it seem especially hand crafted, which is charming.

    The 5th Doctor Sonic Screwdriver is the same prop as the 4th and 3rd Doctor Sonic having a overhaul done for the 4th Doctor, but the white activation ring is from metal tape that wore of revealing the white tape backing throughout the Tom Baker era.

    The 8th Doctor's Steam punk one and 10's are tied as my favorite two Sonics. Simply for the fact that the steam punk Sonic has such an old pulp adventure science fiction feel to it's design. It's something a space faring mad genius would build. And in a weird way I like 10's for almost the opposite reason. His just looks like a scientific instrument that has a purpose and isn't overly flashy, it gets the job done no fuss or muss.

    I think it makes sense to give her a type of 10th Doctor screwdriver because it was ultimately for the 10th Doctor’s use in saving River so I imagine, 12 would want to give 10 something identifiable so he could use it be able to notice the neural uplink. The red setting was to nullify the dampening the 10th Doctor was experiencing. It makes sense for 12 to add that specifically for River’s device as he is aware of exactly what problems he would have to compensate for. That’s obviously not explicitly stated in the show but a simple reasonable enough explanation, regardless, I think.

    Is the 8th Doctor considered to be part of "Classic Who"? I know he predates "Modern Who", but I always have thought of him as being somewhere in the middle of the two. Not really part of one or the other. The 4th Doctor's Sonic is my favorite, simple and looks well made. I'm a fan of most of them and don't necessarily think they need to be redesigned with each Doctor. I do like it when they create a reason to need to create a new one, like they did with the 13th Doctor. Thanks for the video!

      @lapelcelery42 3 роки тому +2

      It was the thunderbirds prop (the body) with a Captain Scarlet prop screwed on top (the emitter). Arguably the emitter was remade because as it was seen in The Sea Devils and Captain Scarlet, it had two "struts" at the bottom and one at the top, rather than the usual configuration of the other way around.

    Where as Capaldi finally has his very own sonic and for only one season. He used it until he regenerates and lost it.
    Because of the new Sonic and Capaldi’s performance I wanted him to stay for another season.

You can see that ring slowly starts to be seen in Tom Backers final seasons. This is NOT a different prop and was the same one used from Colony in Space to Kinda (Visitation was filmed before Kinda). It was originally prop from Thunderbirds film that the BBC bought (along with other bits) from Gerry Anderson's Co way back in 1970/71. Hope that helps?

    If I remember correctly, the Doctor didn't build the sonic lance, it was a tool he found and used...before using it as a detonator. He had it for ONE STORY!

    Hi there, I don't have any favourite sonic screwdrivers, I like them all. There's one thing I would do is customise the sonic screwdriver for example gave the classic design from the first three doctors had, then add the mondern parts like the 13th light emitter part with the cracked light down the middle also have the Gallifreyan text around the rings also have different colour on the emitter. What do you think of the idea 😀

      There already is, or at least was, a build your own sonic screwdriver kit. Council of Geeks has one. It didn't use existing parts though.

    For me it's between the 2nd's, 8th's (Dark Eye's version) and 12th's (genuinely both, I'm sad and loved the shades)! I hate the 13th's to be honest.

    I’m a New Who diehard but the War Doctor’s sonic is the best. It has the solid build of a NewWho screwdriver but the simplicity of the classic designs. It just looks good. It’s not ridiculous like newer sonics, it’s not clunky like some of the older sonics. It’s a scientific instrument with a simple light on it. It’s perfect. To my mind, it’s THEE sonic screwdriver. The platonic ideal.

    I personally love Troughton's sonic screwdriver (2nd's, the light pen). I'm unsure why I enjoy it so much, but I really just like that simplistic design and the fact its just a long silver tube with a light and a button.

    6:44 that is not a sonic screwdriver. What you are looking at is a sonic spoon. That is what the doctor used to make it.

    Having grown up with classic era, I like the whole "bullet" thing. I also like the lights, I like compact and I like the ability to extend/retract. My ideal sonic would have the effector at 90 degrees to the body like the Pertwee/Tom Baker/Davison/McGann sonics, would be fairly compact in normal use but be able to extend for additional functionality or read-outs and would have a light on the effector, and possibly glowing panels/windows down the sides. Having the effector at the end, in line with the body a la Troughton/Hurt/Eccleston/Tennant/Smith/Capaldi/Whittaker makes it look too much like a magic wand with a glowing point that you point at things - and, to be fair, it's been all-too-often used like one in recent years... The 90-degree effector makes it look like a science-fictiony tool and doesn't lend itself as readily to wildly pointing/gesticulating at objects.

    Great list, even if I don't agree with some of the placings. Here's how I'd rank them:
    1. 8th's (Dark Eyes) - It's beautifully unique steampunk design with wood panelling and crystal emitter which makes it stand out from the other sonics
    2. 11th/12th's - Its functional, sleek design is perfectly suited for Matt's Doctor as it can be easily thrown around. Also it flicks 😃
    3. 9th/10th's - As the first sonic I had seen there is an amount of nostalgia that puts it up this high but it's simplistic design and compactability makes it a classic
    4. 8th's - While essentially the same design as the 4th's, the gold/brass ring makes it more unique
    5. 4th - The definitive classic sonic. Simple yet effective and instantly recognisable
    6. War's - Like his TARDIS, a perfect blend of the new and old aesthetic
    7. 2nd's - Talk about simplistic there's nothing more simplistic than this
    8. 12th's - Talk about compensating, it's oversized, clunky and busy yet oddly distinctive
    9. 3rd's - What you said credit for being the first to utilise the cylindrical design with bullet emitter
    10. 5th's - What you said
    11. Sonic Lance - What you said
    12. 13th's - I like the curved hilt and the fact its built by her but as Saxon07 says its a shiny turd
    Note: River's sonic has been removed from the list as I was keeping to your guideline of Doctor's sonic only but it would be placed between 3/4 and if I was to include the Laser screwdriver it would be #1

    12 gave river a new version 10s screwdriver because he knew she was going to meet 10 and needed him to recognize her screwdriver as his to figure out how to save her. If 12 gave his 10 wouldn’t recognize it and might not have figured it out.

    Twelfth Doctor had a voice control feature; too bad he gave it up on Skaro, when he apparently decided to start using “wearable technology.” Hmmmm....

    Liked the video, but the 10th Doctor's sonic did have a way of reading it. It was never specified what the blue line was for (settings or readings) but it seemed like listening to it was just what the 10th Doctor chose to do. In The Eleventh Hour, the brand new 11th Doctor scans the crack in Amy's wall and reads it like he reads his later sonic. Small detail, but I thought it was cool.
