Personally, I'd have to say the most effective scare tactic used with Doctor Who would be the BBC's old video junking policy. Absolutely terrifying!
Haha, true. Horrific! 😲😫😆👊
This is such a great idea for a video! Loved it as always 😁
Aw, thanks HM! Feel free to share it with anyone who you think may get a kick out of it!
Scratchman from the Tom Baker novel and those Scarecrows 😮🫨😵💫😵
Hey there Lloyd! You know, I haven't had the pleasure of that novel. Sounds like I should? :)
@jarnopp yes good stuff I listened to it on audible as it's narrated by Tom Baker 👍👍💯‼️
10. Most. Effective. Scare. Tactics in. Doctor who. History
I remember the maggots in the Green Death scaring the crap out of me as a kid. Plus, that story was bittersweet for me, as Katy Manning was leaving....
Yeah, those maggots are nasty. They look convincingly fleshy, don't they!
I was excited by DW but never scared. Don't know why.
Yes, I guess different people respond to scary stuff in different ways! 😊👊
I still remember the sea devils comings out of the waves but I think the screeching outro noise was the biggest scare tactic!
Yeah! And it was always so loud. 😲
I have to say hats off to body horror as the most effective scare in Doctor Who - e.g. The Ark in Space- H.R. Giger at Saturday tea time would've put you right off your crispy pancakes 🙂
Hehe, indeed! A man turning into a giant insect really was quite bizarre and Kafka-esque for a Saturday night prime-time show.
I think another thing Doctor Who does really well with its scares is stuff like the autons and weeping angels, everyones seen a window shop dummy or a statue of an angel somewhere and playing on that genius of creepy everyday objects being an alien threat is brilliant.
Absolutely! Great point. :)
5:05 I've seen lots of people angry that they will never know what she said. But knowing what it was could never be as good as the mystery of imagining what could be so terrible that it made people run away. People seem to need everything spelt out in their entertainment today 😩
Absolutely. I'd hate to have been told what she said. We can each project our own ideas onto it. 😊👊
Quality work there, defo down for more of this ilk
Thank you Dylan! Please share with anyone you think might like it, because right now the video doesn't seem to be getting seen by so many folk. 🤔😊👊
For me, the best scare tactic was having our hero flitter between light and shadow, occasionally violent and with an alien disregard to human feeling. I'm not sure I could separate Tom Baker from the evil monsters as a child. Even when he smiled at Liz Sladen, there was a sense of darkness and danger just hiding around the corner in his face. When the Tom Baker intro rolled was the show ever really safe again?
Very good points, David! And how about the Fourth Doctor momentarily seeming tempted by the Key To Time's all-consuming power? 👀😲
@@jarnopp Actually that scene just makes me laugh 😂 I think there was a big shift towards comedy in his portrayal after Hinchcliffe left.
Hehe, I think Tom's momentarily blank eyes scared me somewhat at the time! 👀😆
Top vid! Regarding horror in DW, when is there going to be a Jason Arnopp story on TV Who? 😊
Btw, the poll where 38% would love to write fiction but don’t is interesting. It’s not as if you need special equipment to write - only a writing implement, some paper and good knowledge of a language! So what’s stopping anyone if they would love to write? Or have they interpreted it as to write as a PROFESSIONAL writer?
Thanks Jon! Would be great to write for the TV Who.
Re writing, you'd be amazed at all the psychological barriers and self-limiting beliefs that hold people back from writing. And that's part of the reason why I started offering coaching for writers last year! Seemed so sad that so many people either feel they can't write or can't carry on with it.
@@jarnopp I can believe it, really. I’m sure there’s many reasons. When I was little, from moment I learnt to read and write (and I’m sure this applies to lots of children), I was writing stories all the time without thinking about it, and typing at least one on mum’s old typewriter when I was 10. Always writing fantasy and futuristic stories. But by time you get into your teens, other things begin to dominate your life, then if you have a full-time job, then of course a girlfriend, then maybe a family, it’s difficult to find time to be creative because it’s being eaten up by so many other things.
So basically, growing up stinks! Lol 🤣🤣🤣
Aww, it's a shame you lost all that enjoyment, Jon. You may get quite a lot out of my writing community. Join us while it's still free! 😊👊 www.skool.com/writing
@@jarnopp yes, I’ve thought about it. Not as if I totally stopped though, it’s just priorities. I was a comicbook reviewer for industry trade paper Comics International for 10yrs till around 2011 when the publisher Dez Skinn, he who had created the Dr Who mag years earlier, decided to sell it, but instead the publication ended up closing down. It was great experience and I very quickly learnt a lot about the craft of writing, even though they were reviews, not creative writing. You probably felt the same writing reviews for Kerrang. And I still do write parts of stories and plan out story ideas, but mostly nothing gets beyond that stage, though there’s a short story of mine online.
So always lots of ideas, hardly anything finished! 🤣
@@MightyJonE And how do you feel about that? :)
