Merry christmas in may and thank you so much for 50k subscribers!!! 🎉
50,001
CONGRATS on 50K subs!
Congrats! And Merry Whomas!
15:50 if you look closely, Big Ben is covered in scaffolding because it’s still being fixed from when the Slitheen spaceship crashed into it in series 1
I like that cause it shows even though time has passed the effects of previous episodes are still felt
Hardly anybody notices which human does the most to save the world: Jackie. She brings the tea that revives the Doctor. She lends him Howard's nightclothes, with the satsuma that defeats the Sycorax. Good job!
And she turned up with the truck last episode.
This episode genuinely shows how great of an actor David Tennant is. An episode following the regeneration is the first real look at the new Doctor, and gives them an entire episode to convince the audience to stay. In the classics, youd get a 4-6 part story for the new doctor to establish themselves. Full episode in the modern series. David only gets that short stint on the Sycorax ship, stays in bed for most of his screentime, and he chews up the scenery the moment he gets the chance.
Bro managed in 5 minutes what takes 1-4 episodes for any other doctor to pull off.
Another great line from Jackie "IMS GONNA BE KILLED BY A CHRISTMAS TREEEEEEEEE"
The "Don't you think she looks tired?" phrase was actually the same phrase used in real life to refer to Margaret Thatcher at the end of her time as Prime Minister. The 'health concerns' rumours.
Ironically, one reason for Christopher Eccleston's falling out with the Doctor Who production team was that they said he'd left the role was because he was "tired". Chris is adamant that this was simply not true.
@@ftumschk I've also seen some people who are absolutely certain that "Don't you think she looks tired" is a reference to the BBC releasing that supposed "quote"
Each regeneration of the Doctor is the same but different. His strongest character traits of compassion, intelligence, curiosity, determination, all of that will remain intact. But other things can change quite a bit. He could be scatterbrained, humorous, or deadly serious most of the time.
Easter egg I love in this episode is the Doctor references Arthur Dent as if he met him. This suggests this universe is part of the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy universe by Douglas Adams.
We need that crossover episode!!
Doesn’t it just suggest that the book exists
@@junior602002 the Doctors TARDIS also appears in Red Dwarf in one of the shots of Starbug leaving Red Dwarfs hanger bay
@@obiwankenobi687 The Doctor literally says he met Arthur and he's a nice guy
@@obiwankenobi687 I mean, the way it's said at least implies Arthur Dent is a real person. Unclear if that means the whole Hitchhiker's universe is the same universe as the one in Doctor Who, or if Arthur just went on somewhat similar adventures and Douglas Adams based his book on Arthur's account of his adventures. Heck, he could've even have been an unseen past companion and maybe Ford or someone could be loosely based on a second-hand account of the Doctor. If I remember right Adams did write for Doctor Who in the past so it doesn't feel entirely outside the realms of possibility
"I can't believe we're getting a sword fight on Christmas!"
Someone wrote a letter to Santa and was very good this year.
25:10 "Don't you think she looks tired"
This is a very niche reference to a particular event in British history so it can go over a lot of viewer's heads. Margaret Thatcher, the first female British Prime Minister was very unpopular (to be polite!) When she was in the role. What eventually took her down was an aide of hers saying those exact words, not realising his mic was on.
It led to speculation she was unfit to lead and eventually she was challenged for the role of leadership and lost the vote.
You’ll find that it’s a very small universe when the Doctor is angry with you.
The Doctor is no longer here and you are stuck with me 😠
I always liked a line that's coming up that basically says when The Doctor is running away from you, he's doing you a kindness. You don't want him coming for you.
The line "Sycorax rock! As in the modern sense.. they rock" still randomly pops into my head all these years later.
Before this episode Doctor Who hadn't had a episode transmitted on Christmas for forty years. The Daleks' Master Plan episode 7 the Feast of Steven transmitted 25 of December 1965.
To answer your early question, remember Rose was missing for 12 months, so this would be the second Christmas she was gone but the first one where they knew where she was.
A few references to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in this special. Cup of tea, "anything else he's got two of?", Arthur Dent name drop...
The creator of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams, was a writer and script editor (which was more or less the showrunner credit at the time) for Doctor Who for a period during the fourth Doctor's run.
The Hitchhiker's Guide movie was earlier that year! It's fun they got that reference in since I don't remember it being in the book or the tv show. Maybe it was in the radio show.
Adams wrote City of Death, one of the best classic Who stories
@@ninjabluefyre3815 I think it was in the radio show or TV show. I'm almost positive it was in something prior to the movie. I don't think it was the book, but I might be wrong.
I think Rose's speech to the Sycorax was just something that she made up on the spot, using words or phrases she remembered from her travels with the Doctor. Her reference to Article 15 of the Shadow Proclamation was from the very first episode, Rose, when the Doctor is addressing the Nestene Consciousness. Raxicoricofalipritorious was the planet where the Slitheen family was from.
In a post that I remember reading somewhere, it was pointed out that Torchwood was actually just the letters of Doctor Who rearranged.
Good job predicting the tea! I couldn't do the same when I first watched this episode, sadly.
David Tennant really shines as the Doctor in the little time he had here. He's amazing and I know you will absolutely love him in this role! Also, CONGRATULATIONS, EMME!!!!!!!!!!! You got to 50K and you absolutely deserve all the love!!!!!!
Sword fights on Christmas and dinosaurs on a spaceship,.
This show has it all. :)
Shooting the Sycorax ship was an allusion to the sinking of Argentine 'Belgrano' during the Falklands war. Heading away from the islands but allegedly turning around.
There ship is an asteroid. That’s why it looks like a cave.
Torchwood (bit of a spoiler) will become known to you by the end of Season 2. It is also when the Torchwood series begins, if you are going to tie it into Doctor Who.
While the 2 shows are exclusive (dont relate to each other story wise) they do share a timeline.
You'll be very happy to hear that there are many more Christmas specials to come and they had one each year up to 2017! There are other specials scattered around though and the Christmas specials do get replaced with New Year specials, but the Christmas specials finally came back just last year 😅
The BBC love a Christmas Special on Christmas Day. Usually an individual episode with the new season starting a few months later.
Congratulations on 50k, that's crazy! 🎉
Congrats on reaching 50K.
Glad you enjoyed the episode. For the first few years of NuWho, the series always had a Christmas special, shown on Christmas Day here in the UK, and that was partly because each season began around March time, so the season would end in June, and fans would have to wait around six months before they got new Who (on Christmas Day), before having to wait around three months before the next season started.
So now you’ve heard the name ‘Torchwood!’ Make sure you remember that name!
"the season would end in June”
Quite right. For the remainder of the year, BBC would be broadcasting reruns, and viewership would wane. The Christmas specials were aimed at raising public awareness and generating viewer excitement in anticipation of new seasons which began in January.
CONGRATS on 50K and THANKS for this!!!!
Thank you!!
WELL DONE ON GETTING 50K!!!!! YOU DESERVE IT
Thank you so much!!
@@emmeit’s been so wonderful watching you grow. I started watching you when you were reacting to Obi Wan Kenobi and then I got completely invested when your reaction to Iron Man came out!! It’s been so fun going on this journey with you. I’ve also just started watching doctor who so I can catch up on your reactions!!
@@SciFiSwifitie started with the Star Wars Original Trilogy reactions and has been a daily viewing channel ever since
Emme is unfamiliar with parliamentary politics, and how it is ruled by rumor and innuendo. "Don't you think she looks tired" is a meme, a thought contagion which will spread from member to member, resulting in an erosion of confidence in the Prime Minister.
Basically like the whole "doesn't Biden look too old for this" thing
@@Maswartz226 pause
A good old Britsh cuppa is all that you need in a crisis.
That and some bourbons and custard cremes
@@jaykilkenny5727 Jammy Dodgers !
@@Llanchlo Would you like a Jelly Baby?
@@frankwales Only if you reverse its polarity.
I do enjoy a good spot of tea
Yes, the Christmas specials are a regular thing for Doctor Who, at least since the 2005 relaunch. They definitely vary in quality, this was probably my favorite of the ones when David Tennant was the Tenth Doctor.
Noel Clarke apparating in your room is a terrifying thought
the way the doctor looks at rose it's like he's seeing the universe 😭😭😭😭😭😭🥰🥰
Christmas specials are a huge thing in the UK, all the most popular shows will do one. Getting your Christmas special shown on Christmas Day is the ultimate achievement.
What he said about Harriet Jones was in an attempt to discredit her, start turning her staff and the people against her, possibly urging her to resign. Great reaction, though! Love your videos, and great to see you doing Doctor Who
Congrats on 50k subs Eme!!!
Thank you!!
Yeah, the Christmas specials are a big deal. I remember watching at least a couple DVD extras where the Christmas special was shown in a large auditorium in front of an audience of families, with live appearances by The Doctor, companions, maybe some villains which you haven’t yet seen.
I'm fairly new to your channel and I love it so much! Congrats on the 50K! You have earned it! My favorite Doctor of all time is the Tenth and I'm so happy you're here. Enjoy the wonder of funny and hot David Tennant!
Just subscribed, I watched a few of your Doctor Who reactions and really enjoyed them.
Yeah that's the TARDIS wardrobe some of the clothes are the Doctor's some belong to past companions.
The last Doctor wouldn't stay for dinner. This one stayed for Christmas dinner.
The Doctor deposing Harriet Jones at the end draws some debate among fans about whether he was justified. My guess is that it's meant to be an ambiguous moment. In the episode, it comes right after "No second chances. I'm that sort of a man." We're happy about that with the Sycorax leader, but then right away he doesn't give Harriet Jones a second chance either, and we're not so sure. The Doctor's more complex (and thus more interesting) than just a hero in a white hat, there's also a darkness there that we sometimes glimpse.
"So what does this button just outside the door do?"
"It collapses that small area of floor over there!"
"Why?"
*shrugs*
"Well I'm sure it'll be fine. It's not like the commander is gonna run over it when someone presses the button, is it?
26:20 - the right six words to the right person in the right situation, have changed her world.
It’s 100% a thing for Doctor Who to have a Christmas special. Most seasons will have one. It’s usually considered to be an episode 0 for that season
In classic DW, the Martians basically look like alligator-men in suits of armor.
Well done on the 50k the elfs union thanks you
Congratulations on 50k!
The first few Christmas Specials are basically just normal episodes, set at Christmas, with a little bit of Christmas iconography thrown in. There are better ones to come that embrace the Christmas spirit better, but this one is probably the best one of the Tennant era.
David Tennant is an amazing Doctor. Loved his run and still consider him one of the best. My favorite Doctor comes later, but the 10th Doctor will forever be iconic 😌
When the time comes you might want to watch the spin-off series set in the Whoniverse - Torchwood (a more adult show, you'll learn what Torchwood is later) and The Sarah Jane Adventures (for younger children but still great fun)
FWIW, the chance of neither Rose, Jackie, nor Mickey being affected by the phenomenon affecting ⅓ of the world if each was calculated independently (i.e. not related to blood type or any other dependent variable) is about 30%. It's the equivalent of the chance of throwing three six-sided dice (3d6) and having none of them be a 5 or 6.
"No second chances. That's the kind of man i am" and as i recall 10 does keept to that pretty well. He'll give anyone a chance to repent or show remorse and change but they only get the one
Thank you, Emme! ⏳ I remember this one. Yes, holiday specials are a thing with BBC stuff. The DOCTOR WHO ones are joyous... so, let it tap into that part of your mind that appreciates jingle bells. ☃
Merry May Christmas!
A few British TV shows do Christmas specials. A fun way to wind down after a long Christmas lunch. Doctor Who did them from 2005 to 2017, and started again last year, so you have a few to look forward to.
The TARDIS has a big wardrobe with all sorts of clothes. In the classic series the companions would get period-appropriate outfits from it. This doesn't happen much in the revival, although Rose did get a Victorian dress in the episode with Charles Dickens. The wardrobe in this episode also has a set of Harry Potter robes as David Tennant had recently appeared in The Goblet of Fire.
Thanks Emme fantastic reaction . Great news there’s a Christmas special almost every year and some of them really are special too. Have a lovely weekend 😃
This is a fun one. Glad you're enjoying it. David Tennant rules! Although, I must say, Christopher Eccleston had some good episodes, and a cool accent. You'll have to specifically check the watch order to find out what special episodes (Christmas or otherwise) go in between the seasons.
I heckin' love Jackie she's definitely the best part of Rose's companionship XD
How cool was that scene with the Tardis opening 😊 no one knew this was going to be so great. New Who rocks 😅
Hi Emme!😊 I got a late start, otherwise I would have watched this right away being a HUGE Doctor Who fan! The Christmas specials are a tradition for the modern Doctor Who episodes. For many people DAVIID TENNANT is their favorite modern Doctor Who. I think many, especially the younger generation prefer MATT SMITH, as he is the youngest Doctor Who ever. ROSE is still one of my top companions in the modern series. KAREN GILLAN (Guardians of the Galaxy, Jumanji films) is another. She got her big start here.🤯 David Tennant had the longest adjustment after his regeneration as The Doctor on screen.😉 Sometimes logic escapes the Doctor Who series, you just have to go with it.😉 Like you brought up about the blood types. Woohoo!!!! 50K subscribers!!!🥳🥳🎉🎉🎈🎈🎊🎊 Congratulations Emme!😊 You'll hit 100K in no time! Great reactions to David Tennant's solo premiere in this Christmas special, Emme!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 Harriet Jones! What was she thinking?
Yes, the "Christmas Special" is a thing in Dr Who
“Don’t you think she looks tired” = “Don’t you think she should have her health looked into, just in case she’s unfit to keep being active?”
Which then spirals out into rumors that she IS unfit.
Loving watching someone new fall in love with DW. As you must be thundering through Series 2 now (very broke so no Patreon for me sadly), you must be noticing Torchwood pop up. The first series of the spinoff Torchwood, aired just after Series 2. It's not essential viewing by any means, but I think you might get something out of watching it... There are more spinoffs but let's not spoil those yet. 😜
did his elves unionise lol
All right everyone, this season's drinking game starts now!
5:30 Did these Elves like Unionized or something this year?
This part got me :D Can't stop laughing
David really is my Doctor. He's really able to cover a lot of the emotional range that I want from The Doctor. Eccleston was good, but Tennant is... so much better. I know you're going to enjoy the next few seasons!
The Doctor Who Christmas Specials are Classic, I love the Doctor The Widow and The WardDrobe
"Whose clothes ate these?" Funny that you should ask - there are Classic Companions costumes from storage hanging on those rails.😂
I've seen some reactions by Emme before this but I was unsure what I was going to think about Doctor Who reactions. Turns out I'm really enjoying it. The football reference with "I don't know why I did that - I know nothing about football" had me giggling. I feel the same way.
Also, regarding the "Martians look completely different" line, google "Ice Warriors" to know what Martians look like. (They're one of the few species in Doctor Who history to have been good and bad guys in different episodes).
Glad you you are enjoying #10, David Tenant, in this show. But let me give you a warning. As awesome as he is in talking, it’s his silence where he becomes the most terrifying.
When speaking to the Nestene Consciousness in "Rose", the Doctor invoked Convention 15 of the Shadow Proclamation, which is an authoritative framework that carries weight with certain species. Just what the Shadow Proclamation is, and who is behind it, has not been revealed at this point.
Thank you ❤
You will never guess what the sound of the tardis is
The 3rd, 4th & 5th Doctors all had sword fights. 7 also kinda had a bit of a thing with his umbrella.
@emme reacts
The Christmas Special in the Series are allwas a transion from one season to the next season. Some are count as episode 0 of a season.
As much as I like "Deep Breath" and "Robot" and love "The 11th Hour", this is still my favorite "first" episode of a new Doctor. Tennant (like Smith) completely sold me on his Doctor in a relatively short time.
Also not sure if its intentional, but I think 10's outfit for most of the episode of pjs under a bath robe is reminiscent of the 4th Doctor wearing pjs underneath the 3rd Doctor's jacket in Robot
6:21 Christmas tree just became a full body spinner.
_a million internet points if you know what sport I'm referring to_
I didnt comment on the last one but typically the "children in need" specials do not follow the overall story, and are just little mini side-adventures. To be fair, I have never seen that one before you did it, but it does actually provide some insight into the regeneration process, or at least Rose's reaction to it. And, unless Ive missed one, it was the only one that wasnt a completely independant event.
Great reaction, also love your dog - Is it a Whippet? - I watch Dr Who with mine too LOL
She’s a jack russel beagle mix!!
yo 50k massive w
Your about to meet a classic doctor who companion and she is a great one
Of all the Doctor Who reactors I've watched, I think Emme is the first to call out the filthiness of Jackie's fish-tank. Quite right, too!
RIP Mr Llewellyn and Harriet Jones' career.
This is technically the second christmas episode of New Who since the episode with Charles Dickens was also set at christmas.
Also The Doctor's reaction to Harriet's reasoning is a little elitist in a way cause she is right like The Doctor isnt always around so the planet needs to defend themselves against alien threats and be capable of doing so in the absence of Doctor. Its almost like The Doctor doesnt want the human race defending themselves without him or perhaps to find a better way but as we've seen with the Doctor he offers the chance to leave before having to stop them and i suppose thats the difference.
The Doctor also robs the country of the golden age the 9th Doctor talked about in the slitheen two parter
Just to clarify. Blood type is inherited from biological parents, and the ABO genes and Rh factors come from both parents. There are many possible combinations, so a baby may have the blood type and Rh factor of either parent, or a combination of both parents. For example, parents who both have Type O will always pass on their own blood type, but parents who both have Type B can have a child with either Type O or B. A combination of Type A and Type B can lead to any blood type.
I swear my dog looks so much like yours. She's asleep on my bed while I watch lol
There’s a Xmas episode every szn basically
And this is where Torchwood could be started at season 1 until its end and continue where the next DW season ends.
each year, as I get together my christmas tree, I just get Jackie's word in my head of "Im gonna get killed by a christmas tree!" and it never fails to make me laugh
My guess is had they tried to restrain the hypnotized they would've fought back violently.
The "Don't you think she looks tired" bit is a British media idiom. The rules of the British Parliament don't allow MP's to say certain things to each other, one of which is accusing each other of being drunk. The standard euphemism is "tired," or possibly "tired and emotional" or "tired and overwrought," which has also spread to the media when talking about political figures. So the Doctor is suggesting that she looks drunk (which she kind of does in her reaction).
The thing about time lord regened it's not just instant the new body is instant but takes a little time to fully be funtional
Such a great opener for a doctor...
I forgot about the pilot fish. I mean I remember them but not that it was part of this episode. And yes there is a special almost every year after new who started.
" don't you think she looks tired" has been the end of a lot of ladies in important positions over the years
and so begins the doctor's "oh what's this? better put it in my mouth to find out" era
There is indeed a Christams Special every years. Im not British but it seems since its revival in 2005 it became sort of a British tradition to sit down and watch the Doctor Who special that aired on Christmas day. Truthfully i used to actually pirate the episodes and watch them late on Christmas too, since i couldnt get the BBC anyother way back then. They also all take place on Christmas and are Christmas theamed ofcourse.
Harriet jones got outfresca'd
and TorchWood is all the same letters as Doctor Who in a diferent order.
