The Doctor has no regenerative sickness because he's already past that point. Remember how he says "60 minutes ago" in destination skaro? That 60 minutes was the first moments of 14, which was a dalek comic strip published in Doctor Who magazine. All his regenerative shenanigans already happened there.
The Star Beast was a comic from Tom Baker's era that they've adapted here. Another Tom Baker reference is the Judge's wig he just randomly pulls out of his coat which is straight from the Season 16 story The Stones of Blood.
1979 doctor who magazine
There's a reason for it. The special is being made with a partnership between Disney and BBC, which is why the international version is being released on Disney+
The special has expanded budget thanks to Disney's partnership & gets access to the material released through Dr Who's past stint with Marvel Comics.
Technically these specials are also marvel releases.
@@JameZayer Not the reason at all. Marvel only ever had distribution on those comics never ownership, plus these stories started being written before the Disney partnership was found, they actually shopped around a few services until they found the deal that suited them best. Marvel doesn't even get to do the current release of this comic book story.
Seeing you back and reacting to Doctor Who warms both my hearts 💕
I love how Fourteen feels as if Ten had received all the character development of the Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen eras if there was no regeneration involved. It's like Ten, but a more mature Ten, without the depression over losing Rose, the trauma of the Time War or the egocentrism that led to the Time Lord Victorious.
A Ten able to say out loud that he loves his loved ones, more mature. It's nice.
PD: "OH MY GOD, I DID IT AGAIN!" Donna, we missed you :_3
Same
So many great moments, but I still absolutely love the way Catherine Tate delivered the line about the Doctor's suit... "and no further.".
No-one grounds The Doctor like Donna does 😆
fun fact: The moment when the doctor is running around the tardis was Davids idea as he was fanboying over the new interior and suggested to Russel that he could just run around to show the scale of it
Russell also said that David regretted the suggestion after the fifth time doing the scene 😂
@@c.lvr2602 Rachel Talalay (at Chicago TARDIS) said they ended up doing the scene eight times in total and that by the end of the eighth take David was *gassed*.
In the behind the scenes, Tennant says that it was director Rachel Talalay's idea.
I love the 13-esque mannerisms that 14 brought over into this new incarnation. From his body language to his open professing of love for those he cares about (very different from 10's closed-off attitude), it really showed just how big of an impact being 13 had on the Doctor.
Which is all thanks to 12, his last speech really set up 13.
I thought the opposite. Thirteen notoriously found it very difficult to express emotions, especially love. Fourteen is surprised that he can now do it.
YEEESS!
@@aaroncrilly2005why do dudes have to make it about dudes so badly?
I imagine Ncuti will use the same one, but I'd like to see him decorate it a little bit. Peter Capaldi's looked so cozy with the armchair, bookshelves and blackboard in it.
I hope so too, I love the new console room but it does feel a little cold and clinical in its current state, so it'd be nice if it gets a few nice homey touches once Ncuti arrives
Good call.
The Meep was actually created before Gremlins - it's been lifted from a comic released in 1980. The episode name of this special is also the name of the comic.
6:26 I think the reason why he hasn’t had any of the usual post regeneration symptoms is because in canon 14 has existed for an hour. There is a 14 part comic titled “liberation of the daleks” which is set between power of the doctor and the children in need minisode, which takes place directly before the star beast.
NAH THATS CRAZY
They think people are gonna go out of their way to find out about and read this non-marketed comic strip for the show so much that they make it essential to read?? No wonder there are a bunch of plot holes like where the new screwdriver came from, they put it all in some random comic I had to learn about from a random youtube comment! The job of the children in need minisode is literally to bridge the gap and answer questions about what happened in between episodes, forgetting the fact that a new sonic is so important it shouldn't be explained away in extended media at all, this is still so stupid! I disliked this new direction for the show already, but the fact I'd have to go out and read *more* of it to get the full picture just turns that dislike into hate! I know "random person in youtube comments" is probably the last one to care, but I'm actually and properly done with this show now.
@@Potatoboii2 bet you feel fucking stupid after todays episode
@@justarandomveryintelligent8934 didn't watch it lmao
@@Potatoboii2you should watch it. i get your anger man, i would have liked them to have addressed it too, but come on. just give it a tiny watch. or watch a reaction of it. its good and there's no gaps between these episodes this time.
@@Potatoboii2doctor who has always had stuff like this. I hardly thought that the episode was a problem without it?
The only thing that bugs me with this episode is that "a male presenting Time Lord will not understand" the Doctor was literally a female not at all that long ago. even the psychic paper still thinks the Doctor is female. just seems unnecessarily mean.
Yes, as much as I loved the episode, that line was a bit clunky. I woud much rather he and Rose had bonded over the whole changing gender thing. The line didn't even make sense, there are both men and women that are unable to let things go, and in my experience, it's more often than not women. It would have been better had they said something like 'something you've always had trouble with Doctor. Letting go and giving up control' which would be right on the money, because the Doctor, male or female does struggle with that.
Yeah legit the only part that I had an issue with, so ham fisted. I was like what is it gunna come out their menstrual cycle or something? Then no, it's just women have superpowers of being able to let go of problems.
Yes, I'm not a fan of pride agenda pushing but generally I felt this episode used it as a background plot just fine... except for that line, it's an example of the pendulum swinging too far... when you've tamed the bear don't go and poke it with a stick!
That bugged me to no end as well
Listen, I won’t say it’d not clunky but they’re not talking about 14 there, they’re talking about 10. They’re giving a reason why 10 wiped her memory rather than telling her to try to expel the energy.
Anyway, 14 hasn’t had a moment to think about this alternative. We know this doctor (or at least 10) gets distracted when he’s emotional. Again, not saying it was a perfectly written line or even as logical as they wanted it to be… and yes it does seem a little mean for no reason.
Donna Coffee spill is already my favorite moment of the special so far!
So good to see you enjoying this, thanks for persevering in getting this video up!
There's a theory that the Tardis deliberately manifested a coffee machine so that Donna would spill it on the console and they would end up travelling further afield! 😂 You didn't always take me where I wanted to go! No, but I always took you where you needed to go!
A lot of fans took him casually saying “i love her” as maybe 13 coming through in him as she always wanted to tell Yaz she loved her😭
Well, with Eleven, Twelve, and Thirteen meeting people like Amy, River, Clara, Bill, and Yaz
Fourteen will be a bit more
Er
Expressive than Ten
Cause the amount of things Fourteen say I can't imagine Ten saying it
I used to watch your reactions years ago, and just stumbled across this! I'm glad you're still doing them, and I hope you're well
Beep of all the Meeps, lol.
You can practically hear: ''MEME ME!''
Glad you were able to get it uploaded 😀. Really been looking forward to your reaction.
I think the love part is just an homage to Jodie's Doctor and how she was always expressing her love of the fam.
I think it was a tease from RTD about 10 not physically saying that he loved Rose Tyler.
I think it's more than a homage, it's showing that 14 has grown from his time as 12 and 13, and is a very different doctor to 10.
Thanks for coming back Shayla, you've been missed! For reference, this episode scored the highest Audience Appreciation Index score since 2017, so yes, despite the noisy minority crying because there are trans people on their televisions, the episode was generally loved!
Honestly, they're missing out because this episode really felt like coming home. This isn't any shade to anybody who liked Jodie's era because we all have different tastes but personally I could never get into it at all and this felt like "proper" Doctor Who to me. Just effortlessly fun. I can't imagine letting anger about the "woke" elements (aka trans people and disabled people existing) get in the way of enjoying a story.
All I've heard from partly watching Clownfish TV's video is an issue with making it their entire character and keep bringing it up, I suppose. My comment *is* really irrelevant on this but because I'd never heard of Yasmin, I *was* a bit confused with the whole "Jason" thing and I can't remember when in the episode It clicked. So If It took *me* a bit, then "There's someone out there who really needs it beaten into them" - Kat, Gallifrey Gals. It wasn't mentioned that often and maybe some want it to be their whole thing. Maybe, that's why they march! I do agree with Gallifrey Gals that the "Men can't let it go...Women can" should be "YOU DON'T WANT to let it go".
I like to think that the TARDIS console isn’t anywhere near that fragile and she just wanted to put on a show for the Doctor and Donna just because she thought it would be funny
I'm 100% convinced the TARDIS set that whole thing up. It knows the future, it would be an awful big coincidence that it reconstructed a console with a coffee machine at the same time Donna came back. I bet it was like, "Sure, one quick trip to see Wilf...and a few other stops around the space-time continuum!"
Happy to see you reacting to the new specials!!! I would watch reactions to old episodes when I was feeling nostalgic and always loved yours
Doctor Who isn't back until Shayla's back! ;)
WELCOME BACK!!! Gods, this just feels right! Like coming home, in a way... HOLY SHIT, THE TATTOOS!!! You went HARD in the last year! LOVE IT! (That shirt is giving me MAD Mollymauk Tealeaf vibes, btw! Don't think I didn't notice!)
First things first: DAMN. You could TELL they had Disney Money! They pulled out ALL the stops!
Apparently this episode was based on a 4th Doctor (Tom Baker) Comic! WIth them even bringing the writers from said Comic to help adapt the script!
How has it been 15 FUCKING YEARS since the last time we saw these two together?! They haven't changed a BIT! Except for the Doctor... He definitely expresses his emotions more as 14 than 10...
The show you're thinking about is "Heartstoper"! (Nevermind, you got it in the end!)
Fun Fact! The name "Jayson" means "Doctor"! So, even if Rose changed her name, Donna still named her after her best friend...
"ALLONS-Y" WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK. And Shaun answered in French. That's awesome!
I swear we're gonna see Wilf on the last special before the Christmas Episode this year and I'm gonna cry if we do... He HAS to have recorded SOMETHING, right...? Just the one scene...?
"I can't tell if I hate it or love it... What's it called? Gremlins?" Literally the first thing I thought as well!
That little theory is actaully reaclly niec! Like maybe Ncuti is SUPER affectionate! Or... maybe it's just Tennant Evolving!
Meep pulling an ET was phenomenal!
Man, the new Sonic has it all! Floating Screens, Deployable Shields... 14 came prepared!
THE JUDGE WIG!!! I haven't seen that since... Tom Baker, was it? Fitting, since it was HIS Comic adaptation! And it was good to hear about the Shadow Proclamation... Very "Christmas Invasion" and "Stolen Earth"!
IT *WAS* A GREMLIN!
I KNEW the wheelchair was gonna have a gun, but I didn't expect ROCKETS! Good shit, Bingham!
She saw him run and started remembering... I'm not crying, you are!
HOLY SHIT, YOU'RE RIGHT!!! No Regen-Sickness! Because maybe the Regen was interrupted? Is that why he Regenerated with an outfit already on...? IS NCUTI GONNA ROLL UP IN JODIE'S CLOTHES?!?!
The second that glass pane started coming down I started having the WORST flashbacks... I guess it wasn't him taking it this time, tho...
- Donna, on "The FIres of Pompeii": "Nobody can survive that! Let alone us!" **"Forget US".**
- Donna NOW: "You'll die." **"Okay. My daughter is down there."**
NOBODY has ever been more Noble. It's LITERALLY IN THE NAME! This woman imprinted on the Doctor so hard she made him reuse a previous face TWICE and regenerate into Capaldi. NOBODY will ever do it like her!
Donna getting her memories back and IMMEDIATELY getting pissed about giving away the Lotto money... As she should!
THE DOCTOR-DONNA GETS ONE MORE, BITCHES!
Still feel like it was kinda bullshit that the cracks in the ground sealed when the ship was stopped, but I guess we've forgiven more egregious things!
Man, the plushies as every monster they faced... Daleks, Cybermen, Adipose, Judoon, the Ood... Just felt right.
Imagine transitioning and picking your new name, only to realise that maybe the reason you transitioned and felt right in your body (or maybe not, the answer doesn't matter, either way the Transition/Regeneration alegory holds strong) is because your Mom was half-alien when she had you and you subconsciously ended up calling yourself after your Mom's best friend's ex... How would YOU feel about that...?
"Wait 'till I tell the Boss!" I think I know who that is and I can't WAIT to see your face!
"We choose to let it go". Okay, now THAT was bullshit! It looked pretty, but no. You could have had Donna and Rose still have some Time Lord knowledge, but this just felt like lazy writing... Like a "get out of jail free" card that just... kinda happened when it had no need too... And don't blame it on what gender he presents! We know DAMN WELL Jodie would have been too flabbergasted to get it either!
That said... there was a wonderful message to send here! And I'm glad it was heard! A little hamfisted in at times, but still a wonderfull message!
"Me, in a box with another man?" "Yeah, but not him." Why do I feel like this is RTD subtly apologizing for what he did to Mickey on Episode 1 back in 2005...?
So here's the thing... it's safe to assume that when 14 showed up, the TARDIS still looked like Jodie's, since for the first time he didn't blow it up on Regen... So did she change because of her own will or was this also manipulated...? Hmm...
BUT SHE GOT SO MUCH SPACE (Again: DISNEY MONEY!) SHe just knew he'd get the zoomies immediately! AND THE ROUND THINGS!!! THE CONSOLE LOOKS LIKE 5's and David Tennant grew up with the 5th Doctor, don't touch me I'm not well....
I'm so fucking glad 14 talks about his feelings more... 10 DID get a LITTLE BIT on my nerves about that back in the day...
Oh, so spilling tea on the TARDIS just knocks her out but coffee makes her explode? That's how you KNOW it's a British Show!
"We could end up anywhere in Time and Space!" Of course you can... after all, that's how it all got started!
Side-Note: I MISSED MURRAY GOLD'S MUSIC! FFFFFFFUCK, THAT NEW THEME FEELS *GOOD*!
As for the question in the Description: Favorite part...? Donna getting her memories back! Between her and Davd Tennant getting his "suffering face" back on for about a minute it was PERFECT!
And that's the Episode! Gods Above, I've missed your rambles! Your editing work showed and we're all very proud of how far you've come... AND how quickly you got back in the saddle after a year! But yeah, literally NOTHING is known about the next Special, so I, for one am VERY excited! See you then! Welcome back, Shayla. We missed you!
Peace Out, Girl Scout! (You know, I still can't believe that stuck back in the day [two years ago] but not hearing it this time felt wrong... I guess it grew on me!)
"We choose to let it go" would have worked so much better if they set it up just a little, a VERY LITTLE more with the inclusion of some Nine memories of the Bad Wolf and the Time Vortex. Reaching back into Nine's memories isn't something Ten really knew how to do; oh, sure, he knew what HAPPENED, but Nine took up the time vortex with so much ease and proficiency that it can't have been his first time moving a little bit of the Time Vortex around. Granted, the whole thing was still too much, but he was clearly skilled with the stuff.
If you assume that it takes practice and something akin to muscle memory to move regeneration and time vortex energy freely, then Ten not being able to get the metacrisis out of Donna isn't because he was "male presenting" like that means anything (ESPECIALLY in the context of the Doctor), but because the easy manipulation of time and regeneration that Nine had was completely eliminated in Ten's regenerated body. It would be like developing a resistance to the thing that killed you last time; since time energy killed Nine, Ten's body might not let him move it freely. That would let Donna and Rose, who never had that resistance, send it back to the Tardis much more easily than Ten could have taken it from Donna originally. You know, once the metacrisis is diluted to the point that they can think clearly, which it CLEARLY was not when it first happened.
It would work better with a slight wording change, too: "We can finally let it go." Saying "we choose to let it go" as if women giving up on power is some kind of superpower isn't a very good message, but "we can finally let it go" is a mark of healing and overall much better.
Anyway, that's how I would have changed the scene and maybe, possibly have made it make sense? Hopefully?
I’m so glad to see you back reacting to Doctor Who. You have by far the best Doctor who reactions!
Love the shirt!! My roommate just got it. The pattern is so cool! I love your theory about how casual the Doctor saying he loves people might be Ncuti's Doctor starting to come out. A lot of people think it's because this is the first incarnation after the Doctor was a woman, but Jodi's Doctor was so closed off from her companions emotionally. She kept her distance on purpose, all the while calling them "fam." If it were tied to her, it would be more out of regret that she didn't say things like that more often. I like your idea more that it's the next Doctor's character traits starting to appear.
where is the shirt from? I love it
@@aishadwsh209I think it's Critical Role's Mollymauk Tealeaf shirt!
Shayla back with the best shirt, yet! Such a fun reaction and review, too. It's great to have you back!
Good to have you back. Love the shirt.
Tom Baker actually pulled out a wig just like that during a court scene in series called the Stone of Blood
I always look forward to your Doctor Who reactions and again you didn't disappoint! See you again next week!
So good to see doctor who back and you as well. 🎉
We've missed you, its good to see you back and reacting to Doctor Who!
It’s great to see you back! Loving the tattoos btw!
13:33 personally, while I still do LOVE Jodie and Chibnal, I am SO happy to see Davis' writing style back, not to mention David and Catherine. I feels like having a cuppa with an old friend who I haven't seen in ages.
edit: also- I love Ur shirt
Have been so hyped for your reaction been so excited for your upload glad you managed to get it up in the end :D
There are Extras called, 'Tales of the TARDIS'. You should watch them if you have seen Classic Who. Very Good Reactions. 👿
Other than how they handled Donna's metacrisis issue, I liked the episode a lot
Here’s a fun fact: Rose Noble’s deadname, Jason, in Greek origins means healer. Basically Donna unknowingly named her child Doctor.
I AM SO GLAD THAT YOUR A JODIE ERA FAN. I LOVED IT & HER!
So good having everyone back and you too Shayla so fun seeing your excitement
Did anybody else hear snippets of “I Am The Doctor” at 8:58! I love when you get crossover with different doctors action theme songs!!
'The Star Beast' Doctor Who comic this special was based on was published in 1980, two years before 'ET' and four years before 'Gremlins'. So it is more likely those films were based on the ideas in the comic... 😉
Random fact for you. Out of the 8 incarnations of the Doctor from 2005 onwards (including 15/Ncuti Gatwa), only 3 haven't regenerated from or to David Tennant.
9/Christopher Eccleston regenerated to David Tennant.
10/David Tennant regenerated to David Tennant (Journey's End).
11/Matt Smith regenerated from David Tennant.
13/Jodie Whittaker regenerated to David Tennant.
15/Ncuti Gatwa will presumably regenerate from David Tennant.
Only War/John Hurt, 12/Peter Capaldi and 14/David Tennant didn't regenerate to/from David Tennant.
I am so glad that someone finally addressed the fact he has recovered IMMEDIATELY from regeneration. The only Doctor in the modern era that we haven't seen do this up to now is Eccleston and I think that's because it was insinuated that he regenerated a bit of time ago so he likely already recovered before we see him. Since then, 10th Doctor was out the whole episode more or less, 11 had his "steering a bit off", 12 went totally loopy, 13 passed out for a bit but 14 seems totally fine. My theory is that either the Doctor already knows how to navigate his regeneration as it's a recycled face OR there's something off about this regeneration which will be explained later on... or RTD just decided it was time to put that small detail to bed
I think tbh it's more "we only have 3 episodes with this doctor, let's not waste one on the post regen sickness"
all 14s regeneration sickness stuff happened in a comic
Good to have you back, Shayla!
It looks like they spent ton of money on the new Tardis. I'm pretty sure it'll be around for the next Doctor.
I've got no freaking clue what my favourite moment. maybe when (SPOILERS) the doctordonna appears. that or the scene when the plushies appear or the court scene or the new interior or...AAHHH THIS SPECIAL IS SO GOOD!!
Are you aware as well that the behind the scenes 30 minute Doctor Who Confidential episodes as well as these new specials are back as well. Got to say was quite a special thing seeing this being slotted on not just BBC1 to be shown but that after last weekend on BBC1 it was then screened during the week on BBC3 also and as said with the Dr Who Confidential back as well. The last time the show was so prominent on multiple BBC channels was of course many years ago but it just feels good that hopefully now it really will be popularity revival just like it once was.
Jason means Healer or Physician. So Donna named her son Doctor. Then her daughter took the name Rose 🌹. Maybe TARDIS had something to do about that.
The TARDIS cleaned up for Wilf. When they see Wilf it’s going to hurt. It’s the last thing he filmed before he died.
Her reaction is the definite article. She is always JustSoShayla.
GREAT! to see you again. I haven't seen you for a while and I really treasure some of your earlier reactions. Hope to see more.
ty for uploading!!!!! happy to see
I’m about 99% sure that the Tardis they are using now is gonna be Nuctis cos David said he saw Nucti and Millie filming on it
Commenting for the Algorithm! :D Glad to see Doctor who (and your reactions) back!
I've been waiting for your reaction almost as much as I was waiting for the episode itself.
So I remember reading that even though David Tennant is the doctor he is not the doctor he was. He has all the experience of the doctors asked for him which it makes him seem like a slightly different doctor, but still the doctor we know in love
Someone on IG, said that the explosion at the end was set up by the TARDIS to give Donna one last adventure. I can buy that... As always, I love your reactions! You put so much energy! You´re great!
…in the words of 11, “miss ya.”
What a beautiful episde that was! loved your reactions!
So happy to see reacting to Doctor ❤️
It’s weird I’ve had to subscribe to your channel twice I don’t if that’s UA-cam glitch or what but anyways I absolutely love your reactions you’re amazing and with raw emotion!!!
The reaction I was waiting forrrr
I love Jodie as the Doctor, and I loved her last season. Her era overall I didn't hate, but it wasn't my favorite. (Though the master reveal in her era was great.) But she was absolutally brilliant, and I really wish she'd gotten more to work with.
As far as the specials go, my understanding is we're getting three 60th specials, then a christmas special. And I believe they said the christmas special would be Ncuti's first episode. And given that Ncuti was briefly in the trailer for the 60ths, I'm guessing we'll get a regen in the third 60th.
I loved the Master reveal during Jodie's era. Agent O. Haha! Agent "Oh No"
I love, your love of Miriam Margolyes 😁 a friend of mine worked with her in the 90s on an animated film she did. My friend absolutely fell in love with her 😂
Oh I love your excitment during this episode!
Glad to see you are back. Really enjoyed this first episode. Really looking forward to the next one
i love Dr WHO, i do not care what form because every message is valid and every story needs to be told and not just one face can do that.
Your reaction makes me so happy! Absolutely loved this episode and made my heart 😊
Haven't seen you in a while and I just want to say your tattoos are looking very clean!
The Doctor and Shayla are back and everything in the world is good for an hour
There was a brief mini comic in magazines about the doctors events right after he regenerated in power of the doctor, so his regeneration sickness probably already happened
Hey Shayla! Was looking forward to your reaction let's go!
I personally wasn't a fan of the chibnall era, but I feel like this episode really was a return to form. So excited for what's to come!
The sledgehammer crimge was way better written and integrated with Russell
It was a fun episode. I can't wait to see the remaining. Also, I LOVE that shirt!
Damn, the regeneration sickness comment was spot on! I had completely forgotten about that. Oh man, I need a rewatch
The theory about the regeneration sickness actually makes sense. I didn’t realize it till just now so we definitely know for sure something is going on that we’ll see in the next set of episodes to come with why this face of the Doctor came back.
I mean yes, nostalgia, but I heavily believe it’s going to be significant to 15’s story as well. Good catch!
Missed seeing your reactions to doctor who. First episode I really enjoyed I felt a lil emotional even tho I didn’t grew up with David’s era I did see some episodes when I was younger but I started with Matt. Apart from 3,4 little things and that it was a bit too fast paced, this episode I had a lot of fun. I’m happy to hear people are enjoying and hopefully over time doctor who can grow lots and is something many will enjoy. Love the new look for the sonic and the new Tardis. 💙
Loved the episode, loved your reaction. Both make me very happy and cuddly!
I loved hearing the I Am The Doctor theme.
Yay you’re back! With an amazing shirt!
Another Jodie era fan here! Honestly, bringing DT back wasn't my favourite choice, but I appreciate that he's a fan fave and the 60th anniversary has to be a reminiscifest. Still, more excited for Ncuti. Hoping there'll be more than remembering the 10/Donna era in the next two parts - technically I have seen the show since part way through the first Doctor, but I don't remember before Pertwee on account of being born in '62. I don't have a favourite Doctor, but 13 was the one I most closely identified with. Nonetheless I'd love to see plenty of nods to classic Who in the remaining specials.
"Binary … non-binary … binary" I was literally jumping up and down shouting "brilliant" and laughing - and I'm really not the type to do that. Yeah, of course it'll have triggered some people. So what. For plenty more it's affirmation. One person's "preachy" is another person's "preach it, sister!" A person's reaction to it just tells you about them and their relation to current social mores. In the words of 11, ""Times change and so must I. We all change when you think about it. We’re all different people all through our lives. And that’s ok, that’s good, as long as you keep moving…"
Agree with basically all this - including the fact that I was really worried about making a step back with RTD and Tennant... and was so relieved by this first episode being so good.
13:26 Good luck with that closed captions !
I posted the dates on your last video :
"The Star Beast" - Saturday 25th Nov
"Wild Blue Yonder” - Saturday Dec 2nd
“The Giggle” - Saturday Dec 9th
So nice to have Doctor Who back :) id give this episode an 8/10. Some things could have been better but overall I enjoyed it alot 💜
God damn it feels good to be watching new DW and new Shayla reactions. And having a trans character being just normal, and yet also a key part of the story ❤
20:50 so glad you only knocked three times XD
The Meep pre-dates the Gremlins movie.
Beep the Beep also gets compared to ET as though it's copying that. It predates Gremlins by four years, and ET by two.
PEACE OUT GIRL SCOUT
6:45 good point about the lack of regeneration sickness.
I love that you're back Shayla and I want to show my appreciation for that, but first I must know where you got that shirt. I've just started wearing shirts with that kind of collar and I LOVE the colour palette! Where did you get it?
If you want to see how the visual effects were done, look up John smith on UA-cam he was the main vfx director for doctor who and has uploaded a breakdown of his work
Something people aren’t understanding btw is that (apparently) donna and rose choosing to let go of the Metacrisis is a call back to how they’ve always said that Female presenting time lords are much more powerful. As shown by Romana in Destiny of the Daleks
I WAS WAITING FOR YOUR REACTION!!!!
I think the Doctor's unusual regeneration may be a part of a nefarious plan which won't be revealed until the second or third special.
Hey UA-cam, why can't you like a video more than once?
I assumed that the lack of post-regeneration sickness was because that's usually the after effect of regenerating into a new body, where this is going back to an old one. Works for me, anyway.:)
I loved loved loved this episode. It had everything. It was funny, engaging, gorgeous, clever and still managed to feel fully like Doctor Who.
I also think the whole Rose being trans saving the day is a wonderful 'F*ck You' to all the "I'm sick of this woke crap. Glad the Doctor's a man again" idiots. Thank you, RTD.
And just when I thought we couldn't ask for any more, we get Miriam Margolyes playing The Meep.
Wonderful to see you again, Shayla!
I think the lack of regeneration sickness means there’s been a lot of time since Power of the Doctor (which means enough time for plenty of Big Finish stories and possible future multi-Doctor stories)
My favourite part of this episode was seeing the best team back together again - RTD, Rachel Talalay, David Tennant, Catherine Tate and SHAYLA! The Whoniverse is back just the way I like it 😃
Rachel Talalay hadn't written for RTD's Doctors, so this is exciting all around.
@@sallyatticum It's such a great team up, isn't it - her Directing on "Heaven Sent" and "Hell Bent" gave Peter Capaldi the chance to really show what he could do with The Doctor. 1st woman to direct a Dr Who Season Finale, and 1st woman to direct a Christmas Special - and she nailed it. So glad they gave her the reins for the first episode of the new RTD era 😀
3:13 YES, THAT'S IT! THANK YOU!
Glad to see you back!!!
Beep the Meep predates gremlins and et and yoda
