    Just think, Ian Chesterton lived through it all. The Nestene, the Cybermen, the Daleks, the Master, the Zygons, and every time he probably thought "I wonder if the Doctor can see this?"
    EDIT: RIP to a legend. Thank you, William Russell, for such a memorable character.

    It's amazing how much these two have been forgotten. Everybody seems to remember and revere Sarah Jane Smith but forget these two, arguably the two most important people in the Doctor's life. They changed him into the man we know today, and at the same time, had their own character development and were written beautifully throughout.

      Karl Shook Have you heard the recently-rediscovered Desert Island Discs clip, featuring William Hartnell, as himself? It's from about 1965 and is available on the BBC website. Fascinating to get an insight into Hartnell the man and some of his cosmopolitan interests, as opposed to his fabricated but well-defined character of The Doctor. He comes over as a man who has educated himself in the arts (not just acting alone), and has a striking critical intellect. No wonder Tom Baker - and Baker's Doctor! - in many ways remind me so much of William Hartnell. Neither suffered fools gladly, for one thing! And both actors are clearly fascinating and complex persons, in their art; and then, they are also different facets of The Doctor! After the joys of Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee, and then Baker

    The Doctor was facing the breakup of his new family and it hurt him deeply. For all their arguments back and forth, he had gotten so used to Ian and Barbara's companionship that life would never be as happy with them gone. He was also quite worried about the two of them traveling in that Dalek crate. The only thing that helped him to reconcile with the loss of his two human friends was the fact that Vicki still wanted to stay with him, and he could take comfort in the fact that he wouldn't be all alone. Hartnell really played the whole scene beautifully.

      Eleventh had every right to earn that bitterness due to his age. Partially because before Capaldi stepped in: the Eleventh was his FINAL Regeneration (Due to the War Doctor being between the Eighth and Ninth Doctors) remember that Timelords may have a longer lifespan than most other species, and have the ability to Regenerate when near death, but they can easily die when they run out of Regenerations (12 Regenerations are in a Timelords complete lifespan)

    Along with Jamie, my favourite companions. They were essentially representing all of us and they did it with incredible style. Also, Barbara's discussions about changing timelines were the first occasions when this arose in the series, with the Aztecs being a prime example. Ian Chesterton saved the day so many times in the early days of the series and long before the 10th with Rose, Martha and everyone else, Ian and Barbara were the first real glimmers of romance in the TARDIS. I couldn't imagine Ian without Barbara, which is probably why it's all for the best that William Russell wasn't able to take part in Mawdryn Undead. It was nice to see him in the TV movie about the first years of the series and I hope that William Russell continues to make little cameos in the show in the future. The first companions and as far as I'm concerned...the best.

Ian and Barbara had a humanity and nobility of character about them, that I cannot put into words! Steven Moffat - or any good Doctor Who author - could generate a new rich story, whereby we would learn how the humane influence of Barbara and Ian turned out to actually influence the Hartnell Doctor, helping to remould him from an initially forbidding and alien character, into the much warmer character he has been ever since Ian and Barbara had to leave him. Sarah Jane Smith follows on after these two - and look at the effect on us all she had! Hooray for Barbara, Ian, and The Doctor! ;-D

      He delivers those lines perfectly.
      Through the whole scene, you KNOW he's trying to convince them to stay without asking them to do so outright. For three years, he was "I'm TRYING to return you to Earth!" and when the opportunity arises, he can't let them go.
      The Doctor never wants his companions to leave, yet he knows they must. It's inevitable.

    Everybody talks about how the Tenth Doctor experienced the five stages of grief in "The End of Time" but I wanna discuss how the First Doctor experiences it here. He denies that Ian and Barbara want to go. He gets angry at them for their different choice. He begins to bargain for a future compromise, which depresses the him. He eventually accepts the circumstances and let's them go.
    Came up with this idea just now. Wanted to share it.

      ***** You my dear are another true fan of this wonderful classic era of Doctor Who. I was lucky enough to have been there as a young child, when this all began on BBC Television. William Hartnell would have been delighted that his character of The Doctor has continued for over 50 years, with so many more adventures and stories yet to come! We have much to be grateful for. And Doctor Who's fans are part of this rich tapestry, too! Live long and prosper ;-D

    Beautifully put. It's the Doctor's relationship with Ian and Barbara - how they change him, and how the change with him - that make the earliest TARDIS team one of my favourites. Well, that and how kickass the companions were, especially Ian. Also agreed on how wonderful an actor Hartnell was for showing how much the two meant to the Doctor.
    And you're NEW to being a Whovian?

      He likely was. Bill hated change, and he loved Doctor Who. So whenever a producer or a director or another actor left the show, he was always rather displeased, all the way up until Sydney Newman decided he just wasn't fit to play the Doctor anymore.

    • @julietfischer5056
      @julietfischer5056 7 років тому +7

      Hartnell's health started declining in the later years of his run. He was in fewer and fewer episodes and they finally had to either re-cast the Doctor or cancel the series. Purportedly, he suggested Patrick Troughton as a replacement.

    • @mephostopheles3752
      @mephostopheles3752 7 років тому +10

    While at Coal Hill, Clara does some digging, and discovers some paper regarding the frequent disappearances of two teachers from years ago. It sounded very suspicious to her, and very familiar to HER papers regarding her disappearances. She eventually meets one of the teachers, Sir Ian Chesterton. They talk, and realize very quickly that they have both travelled with the Doctor. "I remember how he was when I first met him", Ian says, "He had very little interest in saving people. He was angry, and rash. My wife and I set him straight." Clara remarks "Sounds like he's fallen back to some old habits then." Ian replies, "Is that right? Perhaps... the Doctor and I should have a little chat." The Doctor does not have a mentor anymore, they're all lost on Gallifrey. He doesn't have anyone older than him to remind him whats right and wrong. Ian, as the Doctor's elder, sets him straight. "You can tell me that your entire planet's been destroyed, that is still no excuse for letting people die".

    I genuinely believe Ian and Barbara were The Doctor’s most important companions. Before them, despite having left Gallifrey, The Doctor viewed the world just as any other Time Lord would. It wasn’t until he met them and showed him the traits of humanity and all life in the universe that he champions for now.

    Nice nuancing in the acting here, the gradually, hesitantly softening face, the bits of worry shining through, initial refusal to look at them and how he puts his arm around Vicky in the end, subtly indicating the need for some cheering up.
    ...and of course, there goes the long tradition of the adult male companions and other recurring characters being frequent victims of massive showoff-ery and/or misremembered names. ~
