The second and third Doctors famously were portrayed as disliking each other (and the actors, who did like one another, played this up at conventions).
This special always makes me tear up because it means so much outside of the show. David Tennant getting to act with the Dr Who that he watched and adored when watching the show is amazing. Even more amazing when he became his father-in-law haha
I love the fact that Georgia Moffett went to school with Lucy Baker (one of Colin Baker's daughters). She says she used to believe that everyone's dad played the Doctor at some point.
There was a meme going around as soon as "The Sound of Drums" aired, of Harold and Lucy Saxon standing together and the caption: "Beard: You are doing it wrong". =:o}
Yes, it's true. David is a fan of Peter Davidsons's Doctor! And yeah, on occasion in the old series, they actually had special episodes where multiple incarnations of The Doctor working together.
Yes, Peter Davison was DT's favourite Doctor growing up. The fanboying was real. He was also the inspiration for DT to become an actor, and now his father-in-law. In classic Who there were three stories were multiple versions of the Doctor met.
Actually, Tennant's Doctor was Tom Baker, the fourth Doctor. Tennant did grow up with Five (Davison) as well. But the line was written as Davison was Steven Moffat's Doctor. Moffat was the writer for the special minisode, several episodes of Series 1 to 4 and 14, and showrunner/lead writer from Series 5 to 10.
You asked about the screwdriver... The 5th Doctor didn't really had one. At the very beginning it was destroyed, because the producers thought he could get out of difficult situations with ease thanks to the sonic and they didn't want that. That's something that I think the modern Doctor Who should do as well, just destroy the sonic and put it in a fridge for a while. Anyway, great reaction! I've been watching Classic Who, started with the 4th Doctor, but I'm in the middle of the 5th now and this special has a whole different meaning for me... It was really cool to rewatch it through your eyes.
Which is pretty funny given how limited the sonic screwdriver was back then compared to in NuWho. It just opened some doors and I think once removed a screw. It wasn't an all-purpose scifi magic wand.
@@stuffyouotterlistento1461 exactly! That's the biggest reasons why I think they should get rid of that in the modern series, I mean, the sonic does way too much and the Doctor is way too depending of it.
Peter Davidson was the Fifth and youngest Doctor, being only 29 when he was cast ( David Tennant was only four years older) and you certainly see a lot of him in Ten - however, the final speech to him about "you were my Doctor" was not David Tennant speaking, but writer Steven Moffat, who said his favourite Doctor was the fifth. A noticeable pick, as for most fans of the classic series, Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor was the 'default' favourite.
I think Davison was Tennant’s favourite. He was born in 1971 and says he remembers watching and liking the latter half of Tom Baker’s 4th Doctor stories (so he probably would have been 6 or 7 years old circa 1977-1978) and would have been 11 when Davison took over the role in 1982. Davison was probably his favourite because he got to see his entire era and it was watching Doctor Who that made Tennant decide that he wanted to be an actor. Never heard that Davison was Moffat’s favourite Doctor either. Would have thought that as Moffat was born in 1961, he would have cited either Patrick Troughton’s 2nd Doctor (1966 - 1969) or Jon Pertwee’s 3rd Doctor (1970 - 1974) as his favourite.
@@andrewroberts299Davison was definitely Tennant's favourite. Moffat has talked about how he loved Davison when he arrived because it made watching Doctor Who less embarrassing for him - he loved the show, and he loved Tom Baker's early years, but he hated trying to get friends to watch later Tom Baker stories with him to try to get them to understand why he loved the show. At least, that's what he said. But who knows, first rule: Moffat always lies.
Thats cool if he is your Doctor as well, TBH he is my last spot on the list. Not because of him, but the storys and companions never clicked for me, they are anoying most of the time. When Adric died, i felt bad for the Dinosaurs...
Such a fun and touching little minisode with two beloved Doctors, even more so considering they're family in real life today! Multi-Doctor adventures happened a good few times back in the classic era, always such a joy to experience. Glad you had such a nice time watching despite not knowing about the Fifth Doctor! Just goes to show the level of care and love every actor who plays the Doctor puts into the show, and how much they take away with them once they've gone :)
The celery was mean as like a gas detector. In the presence of certain gasses the he wanted to avoid (wiki says it was ones he was allergic to) it would turn purple. Ironically enough, Peter Davison HATED celery, so you can imagine how thrilled he was for scenes where he had to eat it (popular myth says he was allergic to celery but he is not, he just hates it) And yes it is true, Peter Davison was his favourite Doctor.
Some people miss this minisode and I'm glad you didn't. Make sure to not miss out on any other minisodes because from there's plenty of them from Series 5 onwards. A full list of Doctor Who episodes including minisodes in between is on Wikipedia for your convinience.
The 1st law of time is that people aren’t supposed to encounter their past/future selves. The time lords used to grant exceptions to this rule in classic who so doctor crossovers could happen, but traditionally the doctor isn’t supposed to encounter his past lives… But now that the time lords are gone, the doctor is a bit more… flippant with regards to this rule (both Father’s Day and this minisode are good examples)
Peter Davison was David Tennant's doctor when David was a kid. David went on to marry Peter Davison's daughter, who he acted alongside David in Doctor Who, its a good episode too.
As others have said, David would go on to marry Peter's daughter, Georgia and have several kids. One of the best things to ever happen at a convention Q&A, Peter and another Classic Who Doctor were on the panel and someone asked "What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever given you" and before either of them could answer, someone from the audience shouted out, "A granddaughter!"
Peter was MY Doctor, some forty years ago. And David is only a couple of years older, so this was the beginning of a surreal set of circumstances for him. Doctor Who No.5 was the first 'young' Doctor, with the actor being cast at just 29 years of age. He thought, in fact, he was too young for it back then. How times change...
"No beard this time. . . well a wife" This reference is both to the bearded appearance of the Master back in Classic Who days and, for those who recognise the dated terminology, the suggestion that the Master is gay; a 'beard' was a female companion (or even wife) used by a gay man to disguise his sexuality.
This was so Magical when it happend! It was the first we've seen a classic doctor in thje new series!| Peter Davison played The 5th Doctor inthe 80's! Can't say much bout the 5th Doctor's era...Cause as River song likes to say "Spoilers"...BUT But Nyssa and Tegan were both classic companions of the Doctor. The Mara..well, you'll have to watch That. Fun Fact: Peter Davison is The father of Georgia Moffett who played Ginny, The Doctor's Daughter. Georgia went on to mary David Tennant. So it's the Ultimate Doctor Paradox! The Doctor Is married to the Doctor's Daughter! So...Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey
Multi-Doctor stories were an occasional thing in the show's original run, where the old actors would return to play those past incarnations of The Doctor (although of course William Hartnell, the first Doctor has since passed away and other actors have played that role after the fact). They were full episodes compared to this, ghoi Peter Davison was the 5th Doctor. Yes, He was also David Tennant's favourite Doctor growing up, so this is just him fangirling at one point.
incase you or anyone here is wondering, any time multiple versions of the doctor meet, only the oldest will remember what happened afterwards, however the oldest will also start to remember what happened from their past point of view as it is happening, it seems to naturally happen too, as if time itself is doing it to prevent any paradoxes from knowing his own future, there is a small loophole in there, but for the most part this is how multiple doctor scenarios work.
7:49 Oh yes. In classic Who there were The Three Doctors (Doctor #3: Jon Pertwee, Doctor #2: Patrick Troughton, Doctor #1: William Hartnell - S10E01), The Five Doctors (Doctors 1, 2, 3, and 5: Peter Davidson - 20th Anniversary Special ) and the Two Doctors (Doctor #2, Doctor #6: Colln Baker - S22E04 ). There is in your future another meeting, this time of classic and modern doctors.
@@flippstar09 😄 Hey, another spoiler, this time for you. People are going to go back to The Moon, and eventually, Mars. I hope the future of space is not too spoiled for you.
David Tennent (the 10th Doctor) is married to Peter Davidson's (the 5th Doctor) daughter (Georgia Tennant) who, before they married, played 10th Doctor's daughter and who, in real life, had David Tennent's daughter.
The sonic first appeared in the 2nd Doctor's era (fun fact, in that episode the original intended plot, a pen light, was lost accidentally and had to be replaced in with the saftey whistle from the life jacket used by Deborah Watling, who played his companion Victoria) The second sonic, redesigned into a more distinct design, was used introduced in the 3rd Doctor's era, and would remain in use, with minor modifications in design throughout both his, and the 4th Doctor's run, before being destroyed in the 4th story of the 5th Doctor's era, after which he abandoned it, out of universe because writers felt it had become too much of a crutch. As far as the show is concerned, the Doctor wouldn't return to using it until the TV Movie from 1996 (part of a failed attempt to revive the show, though still counted as canon) although expanded media (books and audio) established the 6th Doctor using a sonic on at least 2 occasions,
Yes this was a Doctor from Classic Who that was the Fifth Doctor (Peter Davison) from 1981 to 1984 who was also the first at the time youngest actor to play the Doctor.
So whilst the Sonic Screwdriver was something established with the 2nd doctor (Patrick Troughton), they actually eventually got rid of it early in 5's run (Peter Davison, this one), because they found it too narratively convient. I was actually destroyed which back then was a big deal. Also I'm afraid the leapord skin Tardis isn't real, even 6 wasn't that tasteless
right so on the 5th doctor he was the doctor when David Tenant was watching the show growing up. there were doctors before the 5th who did use the sonic but they looked very diffrent to how they looked now and it really started with the 2nd doctor 5 had his destroyed and went hands free for the rest of his incarnation. it wasn't really brought back properly until the 8th doctor in the 1996 movie. the 5th was probably the doctor who interacted the most with his other incarnations on screen when this was released. mostly through the anniversary specials. specifically the five doctors wich really only had him interact with 4 of them since Tom Baker the 4th had just left and didn't feel right coming back after just leaving so soon. there was another multi doctor special for a charity event back just around the time the classic series was canceled but it didn't have the doctors interacting as much as it was past companions interacting with different doctors. i know its a long way away but i do hope you'll check out those classic multi doctor eps at least before the 50th anniversary as some important things that would seem small at the time become important especially for post 50th anniversary. you know beyond major lore drops in the three doctors and five doctors you'll see probably one the best companions of the classic series who isn't just Sarah jane.
As other comments have already told you, David Tennant was acting with his then-future father-in-law (or was David already married?), Peter Davison, the fifth iteration of the Doctor. Having seen this long after it originally aired, it was a special treat for me to see the two together.
The Doctor has had a sonic screwdriver for a long time, but it does occasionally leave the narrative for a while. And yes, Peter Davison was David Tennant's Doctor. So much so that he married his Doctor's daughter.
The sonic screwdriver first appeared during the second Doctor's term. The fifth Doctor's was destroyed by a Terrileptl in the Visitation due to the fact it was becoming too much of a "get out of jail free card" for the writers.
At the time, Peter Davidson was the youngest actor to play the Doctor. A lot of people at the time were skeptical that it could work, but he pulled it off brilliantly. Rather like a certain modern Doctor we could mention, but I won't say which one so as to avoid spoilers...
Fifth Doctor Peter Davidson is also David Tennants Father in law . A fun bit for Children in need , a BBC telethon raising money for children's charities . This year's was yesterday .
There's a surviving out-take from Peter Davison's first story, recorded in 1981. A shot finished with him biting into a stick of celery; the cameras continued recording after the end of the take, when Davison immediately spat the celery back out with a look of disgust. I'm with him! Celery is vile. 🤢
If I remember correctly the 2nd Doctor introduce the sonic screw driver, this Doctor (5th) had his destroyed and would not replace it until later regenerations.
Love that the fifth doctor came back first this. And they wrote in an explanation of his aging😂. I loved it as a fan of classic❤❤❤. And yes, that was Tennant’s doctor.
Yes, it's a classic Doctor! David Tennant's Personal Favorite! They are family nowadays, you get to meet Peter Davison's Daughter and David's wife, in a future episode.
If you loved this??? U HAVE to watch a Classic episode called THE FIVE DOCTORS.... Though u may wish to watch the Classic series first... that could take some time.... But? U can always go The 5 Doctors anytime. But being familiar with all the Doctors/Companions/Villains etc? You'll enjoy it HEAPS more
My childhood fave Doctor - 'twas nice to see him back after all those years. ^_^ He wore that celery throughout his run, but we had to wait several series before he finally explained why.
Do love these little mini episodes usually especially after a very emotional episode just to cheer up. Peter Davidson probably deserves a lot more respect he had probably one of the hardest doctors to be comming after tom bakers 4th doctor who for a lot of people was the best and at the time most beloved (now its tied between baker and tennant) tge celery on the lapel was to detect toxins in the atmosphere that can harm a time lord if it was in the air the celery turned purple
Yes the cricket doctor (Peter Davison AKA The fifth Doctor). Is the doctor that David Tennant watched while growing up. Later on Peter Davidson's daughter Giorgia Davidson played the Doctor's Daughter in a David Tennant episode. She later married David Tennant. For you sick minded people out there, this is some kind of weird television incest. The 5th Doctor regenerates into the 10th/11th Doctor.. Then marries his own daughter.😂😂😂😂
The 5th Doctor? Wore celery because it would change colour (purple, I think) in certain toxic environments.... So the Doctor could rush back to the TARDIS 😀
Not seen his era, was odd when I had seen aprtd of hsi but not enough. Mostly only Tom Baker and a few parts on odd sides of it. But yeah a good minisode to cross paths and him getting to speak with his Doctor. The Xmas episode coming woo.
Ah yes, the old Doctor meeting their past incarnation, adventure. Also, are you ready for David's final season as the Doctor? This is probably my favorite season of this era, A LOT happens, and at the time it aired, I remember it feeling bittersweet becauseI had already known he was exiting the show at the end as well as Russell T Davies. Wonder if you'll feel the same, because his will be an end of an era of Doctor Who, "New Who"
Damn, too slow and everyone else had explained Peter is David's favorite Doctor and father-in-law lol In all seriousness as someone who had only seen New Who up to this point, this and School Reunion got me really curious about Classic Who (have since seen a good chunk of it, mostly Tom Baker who is top three Doctors for me along with David and Peter Capaldi) and I adore how they have moments like this to honor the Classic characters and entice viewers to check out the old series.
You sort of shard in the wonders of the classical period. The Doctor before Davison is my doctor. I did go back and have now watched every episode until the previous one. The writing went down and it violated the canon we have lived with for decades.
The flaw of 5th Doctor is that he had too many companions at once. The most he had once was 3. One of his companions was very annoying, Adrick. He acted like he knew more than The Doctor. The Doctor always showed he is wiser than Adrick.
Fun Fact David Tennant married Peter Davison's daughter

Not only is Five Tennant's childhood Doctor, he grew up to marry Five's daughter. Underrated power move.

It's amazing that in 2007 they allowed the B-word to be spoken on TV, in (arguably) a *kids show.*

As other comments have already told you, David Tennant was acting with his then-future father-in-law (or was David already married?), Peter Davison, the fifth iteration of the Doctor.
Having seen this long after it originally aired, it was a special treat for me to see the two together.
The Doctor has had a sonic screwdriver for a long time, but it does occasionally leave the narrative for a while.
And yes, Peter Davison was David Tennant's Doctor. So much so that he married his Doctor's daughter.
The sonic screwdriver first appeared during the second Doctor's term. The fifth Doctor's was destroyed by a Terrileptl in the Visitation due to the fact it was becoming too much of a "get out of jail free card" for the writers.
At the time, Peter Davidson was the youngest actor to play the Doctor. A lot of people at the time were skeptical that it could work, but he pulled it off brilliantly.
Rather like a certain modern Doctor we could mention, but I won't say which one so as to avoid spoilers...
There is no Doctor Who fan like David Tennant. Others will have said why by now, but I swear he was born to play the role.
All I'm going say is the series you're about to watch is my favorite.
Watched Classic Who out of order while watching these new ones in order. The 5th and 10th Docs together! Love it.
Series 4 after the Christmas special is my favourite season.
Fifth Doctor Peter Davidson is also David Tennants Father in law . A fun bit for Children in need , a BBC telethon raising money for children's charities . This year's was yesterday .
The scary thing is David Tennant is almost the same age now as Peter Davidson was in this special!
I love the inclusion of the 1980s soundtrack during the 5th Doctor's first few lines
There's a surviving out-take from Peter Davison's first story, recorded in 1981. A shot finished with him biting into a stick of celery; the cameras continued recording after the end of the take, when Davison immediately spat the celery back out with a look of disgust. I'm with him! Celery is vile. 🤢
David previously said Doctor # 4 Tom Baker was his Doctor. Tom is also my Doctor.
Yes, Peter Davison was Tennant's Doctor, just like he was mine. Tennant later married Davison's daughter, which is a whole other thing to talk about.
If I remember correctly the 2nd Doctor introduce the sonic screw driver, this Doctor (5th) had his destroyed and would not replace it until later regenerations.
Love that the fifth doctor came back first this. And they wrote in an explanation of his aging😂. I loved it as a fan of classic❤❤❤. And yes, that was Tennant’s doctor.
Peter Davison isn't just David Tennant's Doctor, he's also his father in law.
The funny thing is these are my favorite doctors from nu who and classic the fact he's his father in law IRL just adds to it
Yes, it's a classic Doctor! David Tennant's Personal Favorite!
They are family nowadays, you get to meet Peter Davison's Daughter and David's wife, in a future episode.
David's earliest Doctors were - as far as I remember him saying - were Tom Baker and Peter Davison. Mine was William Hartnell.
Yes, Peter Davidson was David Tennants doctor, there is so much going on her, that to tell you the full story would be spoilery.
Peter was a great Doctor
"I like the celery. What is that for? In case you get hungry?"
Nope. It's to ward off vampires.
It turns purple in the presence of certain gases is the Praxis range.
@@Jaycsee66 And then he eats the celery. If nothing else, it's good for his teeth.
For clarification Peter Davison played the fifth Doctor in Doctor Who and Pete Davidson was on Saturday Night Live.
generally, Dr's companions don't spend a lot of time traveling as they could overshadow the Dr.
saying anything else could be 'spoiler'-ish
If you loved this??? U HAVE to watch a Classic episode called THE FIVE DOCTORS....
Though u may wish to watch the Classic series first... that could take some time....
But? U can always go The 5 Doctors anytime.
But being familiar with all the Doctors/Companions/Villains etc? You'll enjoy it HEAPS more
My childhood fave Doctor - 'twas nice to see him back after all those years. ^_^ He wore that celery throughout his run, but we had to wait several series before he finally explained why.
Do love these little mini episodes usually especially after a very emotional episode just to cheer up. Peter Davidson probably deserves a lot more respect he had probably one of the hardest doctors to be comming after tom bakers 4th doctor who for a lot of people was the best and at the time most beloved (now its tied between baker and tennant) tge celery on the lapel was to detect toxins in the atmosphere that can harm a time lord if it was in the air the celery turned purple
Five was the youngest ever Doctor at that time (the 1980s).
The celery is there in case of praxis gas poisoning. The Doctor can eat the celery. It's good for his teeth.
Peter Davidson is David Tennant's father in law in real life
3:55 yes you mentioned the fans and it ended up bad and this means Peter Davidsons doctor has had interactions with L.I.N.D.A before
P.S. Four was his favorite, but Five is his father-in-law, so.... :)
Yes the cricket doctor (Peter Davison AKA The fifth Doctor). Is the doctor that David Tennant watched while growing up. Later on Peter Davidson's daughter Giorgia Davidson played the Doctor's Daughter in a David Tennant episode. She later married David Tennant.
For you sick minded people out there, this is some kind of weird television incest. The 5th Doctor regenerates into the 10th/11th Doctor.. Then marries his own daughter.😂😂😂😂
yes the doctor has and will again run into himself. they seem to do it every now and then. It is nice when it happens.
The 5th Doctor? Wore celery because it would change colour (purple, I think) in certain toxic environments....
So the Doctor could rush back to the TARDIS 😀
Peter davison is the 5th doctor 1981 to 1984
I am certain that you enjoyed the Christmas Special. I am making a note to watch when your reaction hits UA-cam.
Not seen his era, was odd when I had seen aprtd of hsi but not enough. Mostly only Tom Baker and a few parts on odd sides of it. But yeah a good minisode to cross paths and him getting to speak with his Doctor. The Xmas episode coming woo.
You have something really special when you get to the 50th anniversary.
Always fun to have an extra Doctor 🤓
The celery supposedly protected him of some allergies if he ate it or something like that
It's to detect toxins in the air
It turns purple if there is such toxins
Yeah in his final story the 5th Doctor explains the celery turns purple if it's exposed to certain gas vapours that the Doctor is allergic to.
Ah yes, the old Doctor meeting their past incarnation, adventure. Also, are you ready for David's final season as the Doctor? This is probably my favorite season of this era, A LOT happens, and at the time it aired, I remember it feeling bittersweet becauseI had already known he was exiting the show at the end as well as Russell T Davies. Wonder if you'll feel the same, because his will be an end of an era of Doctor Who, "New Who"
The 5th Doctor was my Doctor, I saw 4 Regenerate but that was all I saw of him for years.
3 What’s is iconic David Tennant.
Peter is known as the Doctor with a small vegetable in his shirt pocket. I think he keeps a celery stalk in his pocket.
Tom baker (4) is MY Doctor!
Teagan was one of Peter’s companions
Doctor #5 was very good!
Tom Baker was my doctor.
So glad you reacted to this.
Damn, too slow and everyone else had explained Peter is David's favorite Doctor and father-in-law lol
In all seriousness as someone who had only seen New Who up to this point, this and School Reunion got me really curious about Classic Who (have since seen a good chunk of it, mostly Tom Baker who is top three Doctors for me along with David and Peter Capaldi) and I adore how they have moments like this to honor the Classic characters and entice viewers to check out the old series.
You sort of shard in the wonders of the classical period. The Doctor before Davison is my doctor. I did go back and have now watched every episode until the previous one. The writing went down and it violated the canon we have lived with for decades.
Emme loving the new hair color!
"My" Doctor. :)
More fun facts: "Beard" is slang in for a date or partner who is used to hide one's true sexuality
enjoyed your reaction 👍☺
The flaw of 5th Doctor is that he had too many companions at once. The most he had once was 3. One of his companions was very annoying, Adrick. He acted like he knew more than The Doctor. The Doctor always showed he is wiser than Adrick.
I don't recall Adric ever acting like he knew more than the Doctor.
I can't wait for you to watch season 4 - it is my favorite season!!!
I wonder what fun facts are going to be commented 8727 times under this video
Thanks, Emme! ⏳
If you feel like it, please do a Godzilla minus one reaction.
Imagine he's not his favourite Doctor, but he had to say it because that is his father-in-law XD
I don't believe he was yet at the time of this filming.
I think he was just sucking up to his father in law.... :P
