Please watch Line of Duty, another BBC production that you will all love
@@Stuffthatsfunny1or Luther
You guys should have watched the original version, they hacked this apart
You guys should watch ‘Oh Mummy!’ which was an extra on the DVD (it has been uploaded to UA-cam) it’s very funny.
would love more tales of the Tardis!
If Blind Wave watched City of Death, my life would be complete
Well well well look who we have here
@@reefedwards623 reefedwards623 we meet again
a favourite, at least they chose the great One!!!
Agreed, its the end goal of all. I can already see their faces when they recognise John Cleese.
Aww that would be great because City of Death use to be a doctor who story that really really scared me the most as a kid back then.
This is an incredible re-edit they managed to cut the story right down, not just keeping the essential plot mechanics but also without losing any atmosphere/jokes or character moments
Exactly. I took the slow path last weekend and then watched this, highly impressed. It didn’t miss anything salient.
A Blind Wave reaction to Classic Who?! IN 2024??? THIS IS AMAZING
They did The Five Doctors and The Movie before:)
Tom and Liz adlibbed the spin on the heels scene . The director was pissed off over it at first but left it in because of the crews reaction😂
That makes it even better 😂
Really? It’s brilliantly funny.
Also a great meme!
@@spideyfrommars9218 Yes!!!
It'd be hilarious if they re-edited all of Classic Who into Tales of the Tardis just to force people to watch Classic.
Hey if it gets people watching ‘classic who’ who wouldn’t usually then I’m all for it!
Why would you have to be forced.......
Wasted on you. ;-)
Have them do The Web Planet and baffle the entire population
Be serious Alex, the people are already clamoring to watch the Space Pirates telesnaps, what more incentive is needed?
It was so poignant seeing the much loved Dr Who icons Tom Baker and the forever missed and loved conpanion Sarah Jane Smith. Also how amazing still is the original voice of Sutekh Gabriel Woolf. Incredible 😍
Still Gabriel Wolf voicing Sutekh, even now.
Add to that he also voiced The Beast from The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit
4:21
The scarf: this was a genuine mistake/happy accident. The person who knitted the scarf wasn't given a specific length to go for so just made a mahoosive one.
When it turned up on set the producers loved it, so it was kept it in.
It was actually even longer originally! Begonia Pope was given a load of wool by the production team and just knitted all of it. They had to shorten it a little before filming with it but the rest is history.
¨The little bit we watched of Sarah Jane adventures¨ 29:10
Oh my god.
Can we get these guys to watch The Death of The Doctor / Wedding of Sarah Jane? I'm sure they'd love it. Maybe they could do one each month, that way they get some Whoniverse and don't have to wait till Christmas for some new stuff.
I'm surprised they haven't tbh. I know they're not necessary for understanding DW but they're probably the best SJA got
I'm surprised they haven't watched those yet, however The Trickster was mentioned in The Legend of Ruby Sunday and if he appears in the main show then hopefully they will react to The Wedding of Sarah Jane like they did with Pyramids of Mars. It might lead them to watch Death of the Doctor hopefully.
Need more Classic Who reactions
Absolutely. But sadly I don't think it will happen.
@Arrows They may react to other Tales of the TARDIS episodes, but like they said Classic Who is so vast and takes up a lot of time to get through, and they watch a lot. I don't think an actual reaction series would happen, but stuff like this, every now and then.
The Daleks in colour would be an interesting watch to for Eric. A colourisation of a black and white story especially and the historical importance.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY ACTUALLY DID IT LETSGO!
I truly miss their Classic Series one-off reactions, this was the perfect excuse.
There's only one other isn't there?
@@flaggerify Just The Five Doctors and the TV Movie.
Why does it have to be a one-off why can't we have it every week?
@@joshuaverran9443 Or one every year....
@@TheMoonRover Ah yeah. Forgot the movie. Guess it counts.
They made a "Tales of the Tardis" with a story of each of the seven Doctors from the classic series, you could react to, they work very well as introductions to these specific Doctors.
There are 158 stories is classic era Who, all but 14 are intact (all from 1st and 2nd)
unearthly child or the 10th planet for first
tomb of the cybermen , the mind robber for 2nd
spearhead from space, the three doctors the green death for 3rd
city of death, Genisis of the daleks for 4th
the 5 doctors, the caves of Androzani for 5th
trial of a timelord for 6th
curse of fenric and Battlefield for 7th
and night of the doctor for 8th
these would be a great intro to classic who for new fans, and also significant events in the doctors life and sets certain rules and ages in place
@@julieeverett7442 They already made one for each Doctor, the Pyramids of Mars episode is the 7th episode.
Three of them are even episodes you suggested: The Mind Robber is Tales of the TARDIS episode 2, The Three Doctors is TotT #4, and The Curse of Fenric is TotT #6.
However for the First Doctor (TotT #5) they did The Time Meddler, for the Fifth Doctor (TotT #1) they did Earthshock, and for the Sixth Doctor (TotT #3) they did Vengeance on Varos.
There really isn't a reason to do the 8th Doctor, aside from the movie other stuff like Night of the Doctor was already made in the modern era and is already the length of the new scenes in Tales of the TARDIS already.
Also technically - episode 7 is a prequel to episodes 1 to 6. Episode 7 takes places in the middle of Empire of Death right after the Remembered TARDIS is created.
@@TastySalamanders oh nice, I really need to take a look
It was 4 episodes, the time tunnel looked like glowing Skittles flying through space and LOADS was cut from the 4th episode where the Doctor and Sarah had to solve various puzzles to get to the chamber with the Eye of Horus. Such a good story- loved it, especially the puzzles bit as a kid.
Such a shame they cut those puzzle scenes, which I loved at the time and ever since.
@@ftumschk I'm of the opposite opinion, I'm glad they cut the puzzle scenes, it was all just padding to fill out the 4th episode, and it dragged the pacing to a crawl.
They also cut out the majority of the poacher. Just kept enough of him to see him run around a little, die and them find his shed, rather than waste another 20 minutes of him running away from Mummies.
@@AndrewHalliwell yes, that was another very welcome cut.
@@homiedclown Seeing how the Doctor solved those logic puzzles must have made a big impression on the 9 year-old me at the time :)
I wished they watched The original 4 part version just to see Eric react to the sting 3 times in one video
Love these little cut-down omnibus versions of the classic serials. Understand why some people might not like the edits but it does make it more accessable for newer/younger fans. The vortex in the sarcophagus was updated with new graphics.
All the way back in the Five Doctors they never got to react to any of Tom really. So this is nice for an old fan.
I hope Tales of The Tardis continues, and the crew has an excuse to watch at least *1* episode a season.
This was a huge treat and I was so excited to get the notification.
If Eric's interested in seeing some more Tom Baker stuff, strongly recommend reacting to 'City of Death'! It's a Fourth Doctor story co-written by Douglas Adams (of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). It feels like a Moffat script lost in time, funny, scary, clever, weird, silly, 10/10 no notes.
Or "The Talons of Weng-Chiang" or "The Robots of Death" which is another of his most iconic stories.
I wasn't expecting this and I can definitely say that you guys would like the other entries in the series. Gives you a nice taste of each Doctor.
The dual turn-around of the Doctor and Sarah is even better because it was improved by the two of them at that moment... and it was so perfect they kept it in.
THEY DID IT! EYYYY
21:22 Best part about that scene is that the synchronized turn around was COMPLETELY improved
4 showing Sarah Jane 1980 was like when 15 showed Ruby what would’ve happened in 2024 if they didn’t stop Meistro.
The Pyramids of Mars originally was FOUR (not three) roughly 25 minute episodes. The Tales of the TARDIS production abridged that somewhat and of course eliminated all the cliffhangers turning it into a feature-length film making it slightly shorter been a total of three classic era episodes.
Very well edited actually! Didn’t loose the storyline. Glad they kept the Doctor and Sarah Jane comedy dive behind a wall.
Would love you guys to watch the other Tales of The Tardis - there’s one per Doctor so a great taste of all of classic!
Yes a reaction to the GOAT that is Tom baker - you can see a lot of how the newer doctors riff off of his doctors quirks.
Tom baker is 90 now
I'd use the word "homage" instead of "ripoff"
“Riff” not “rip”.
@@matheusflores619 I said riff? Not rip off 💀
@@Elnont Oh sorry, my bad. Never seen riff together with off, my brain just connected it as rip off😅
Really glad you all reacted to this. “Pyramids of Mars” has always been one of my favourite classic stories. The new re-edit for this was very well done, including with the modern time vortex VFX. The other “Tales of the TARDIS” are definitely worth checking out, as there are loads of other classic stories, revisited by classic companions and Doctors. Once you’ve all watched the finale of the latest main show episode, this will all add more context to it.👏😀
Omg I wasn’t expecting this! You’re reacting to Pyramids of Mars a classic who episode! Awesome!! So yeah as i said before, i was a fan who grew up in the wilderness year of Who and i use to go down to my local library and pick up a selection of classic Who episodes on vhs and Pyramids of Mars was of those stories my library had. I love this story. Out of all of Tom Baker’s episodes this is one of my top 3, next to The Deadly Assassin and Genesis of the Daleks. You really Surprised me Blind Wave Thanks! Hope for more tales from Tardis reactions 😃
I would love it if you guys watched more Classic Doctor Who; you've done 3 stories now, but theres so much more to see!
Oh my god thank you SO MUCH for doing this!! I know Tales is a convenient way to hop in and that'd be great but I would love to see them just do any classic stories that catch their eye. Could do polls or something, however far apart they need to not get overwhelmed/bored. Mainly, selfishly, I've been wanting the crew to see THE speech in Genesis of the Daleks for YEARS
The three doctors or the Earthshock tales of the Tardis would be good to have
Yeah, this cut version loses quite a lot of the little interactions between Sarah Jane and the Doctor that showed their relationship. They had to do it for the time but it is a shame.
I didn’t mind that !
City of Death would be a good one to react to.
Btw, radio waves are as fast as light.
This guy gets it
@@dwfan91- dwfan91 spotted in the wild
no theyre not
@@julieeverett7442 Radio waves? In a vacuum yes they are.
Sutekh: *Latches onto TARDIS*
TARDIS: My directional circuits indicate I was to 'drag you through time to your inevitable demise and ensure no further deaths result' I will now proceed to carry out this task...
Just a couple of things to add:
- Yeah, that scene of The Doctor pushing the corpse away like it's nothing is very, well, alien. It's the kind of thing that NewWho doesn't do much, show the more alien side of The Doctor that sees things from the wider perspective. It's, y'know, cool.
- The respiratory bypass system is something that NewWho has actually used, they just never name it. It's basically a little thing of Gallifreyan biology that allows them to go without breathing for a lot longer than, for example, humans. It's how The Doctor did that space walk in "Oxygen" or stayed awake in a hospital that was losing oxygen in "Smith and Jones".
I'd love to see you watch more of these!
I’m so glad you watched this! You should check out the rest too
I grew up watching Tom Baker and Peter Davison. I can't believe Tom is 90 now and still going.
Here is something fun, Laurence Scarman is played by Michael Sheard, probably best known in the United States as Admiral Ozzel , from The Empire Strikes Back (the guy Vader chokes out for bringing the fleet out of light speed too close to Hoth) He is also the actor who played Hitler, autographing the grail diary in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
This appearance was one 6 different stories he appeared in between 1966 and 1988 on Doctor Who
Plus he was a teacher in one of the best kids show Grange Hill. Mr Branson was a hard ass.
This episode really captures the appeal of Sarah Jane and the chemistry with the Fourth Doctor. For the longest time, only she (and one prior companion, Liz Shaw), had been able to lay the sass down on the time lord. She was also a cinnamon bun of a sidekick, IMHO.
Well this was a nice surprise, now the series is over for the Time being maybe you guys could watch the other Tales from the Tardis. 🥰
Great idea.
Sarah Jane Adventures, too.
This is one of my favourite episodes from my favourite doctor. I first got into DW during toms final season
I might be in the minority here, but I don't like the digital "enhancements" they did the pyramids of Mars, I actually think it makes it look cheaper.
I get the feeling the effects were redone purely as a way of getting Sutekh's Time *Corridor* to become the same thing as the Time *Vortex*..... and thus make the absolute fallacy that Mini RTD believed as a youngster (which he says in the commentary) into the fact that Big RTD put into the script... but that may be unfair to say... but yeah-the effects look cheap here. Perhaps the should have used some of the budget from the scene where the Doctor becomes the member of a lynch mob in episode 8 instead.... because that really wasn't a great look for the show!
i watched this "way back in 1975" i got real lucky and my first doctor was tom baker i started watching the show on his first episode and with the long length of his run as the doctor i got the one doctor for most of my childhood from four to eleven.
The location shots for this story were filmed at Stargroves, a mansion once owned by Lord Carnarvon, who discovered Tutankhamun's tomb. At the time of filming, it was owned by Mick Jagger.
Need to do ALL the tales of the tardis
I would love to see you guys watch the other Tales of the Tardis releases. They're so fun.
"When the locals flee... it's time for tea!" How very British of you
cool of you guys to watch this. i really like that it exists to catch up new who watchers on the older stuff
If they have the time they should definitely watch more Classic Who, at least An Unearthly child would be nice
if that's even accessible anymore
@@vamshidarisi8400 it is
guys: do the other six tales of the tardis episodes
you will have a good time.
16:55 I mean 15 probably would’ve cried seeing that body you have to agree haha. It’s his signature
YAYAYAYAY OLD DOCTOR WHO REACTIONS ARE MY FAVORITE
FINALLY some more classic who reactions on the channel! We need more of this so bad!! Its so much fun!
yeah the tardis key keeps changing back and forth between a standard yale latchkey and a strange custom ankh thing.
Loved the reaction vid! Would love to see more tales of the tardis or just more classic who reactions in the near future!
THANKS for this!!!! Tom Baker?!? Any day of the week!!!!
In the beginning of the story when the Tardis gets fubared and Sarah sees Sue Tech😊 in the TARDIS, they are traveling back in time crossing when the Doctor shoves him up the time tunnel at the end and that's when he latches on to the Tardis as mentioned in Empire of Death. It is not explicitly stated in the story but that's the implication. Someone already made a video on UA-cam merging the two events. I believe it's titled something like "Sutekh latches onto the Tardis" or something like that. It makes perfect sense and explains the beginning of the story. Wibbly wobbly timey whimey...
This was actually 4 episodes. They cut some of the story to fit it in an hour time slot (mostly in part 4 where the Doctor and Sarah Jane had to solve a series of puzzles). FYI, the respiratory bypass has been mentioned a few times in the modern show. Most notably in the Christopher Eccleston episode “Dalek when the Doctor is being examined.
I would totally be down for reactions to the other episodes of Tales of The Tardis!
This is a brilliant definition of a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. Thank you for asking them to do this Lano and thanks for doing this crew!
Bring on the finale!
They are simply new edits of classic stories, made into a feature length story. Bookended with new scenes. Usually with a former doctor and companion from those stories reminiscing about that story and their time together. They are great. That new TARDIS, the remembered TARDIS. Will have its origins explained in this seasons finale.
So glad you guys reacted to this!
This was very fun to watch =)
WHO HERE WANTS BLIND WAVE - CLASSIC WHO REACTIONS! Let’s make it happen!
it's great you guys are watching tales of the tardis!
Really hope they react to the Rest of Tales of The Tardis as it's amazing and it's only 6 episodes
You guys should watch the rest of the Tales if you enjoyed this, gives you a nice brief flavor of Classic Who without too much investment
Did you guys ever see The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot? It was made for the 50th anniversary but only available online I think. It’s a comedy spoof with a lot of Doctors & other actors connected to the show.
Really surprised they watched this but super happy about it!
The original tunnel looked like m&ms
PLEASE DO THE OTHER TALES OF THE TARDIS EPISODES!!!!!
if you want to see another British scifi show from the late 70's into the 80's check out Sapphire and Steel starring Joanna Lumley and David McCallum , in some ways a it's much darker show than Dr Who. its all up on youtube check it out
You should definitely react to the rest of Tales of the Tardis!!!
I was hoping we'd get one of these
I'm glad you were able to get to experience the pyramid of Mars it is a shame you don't have the time to watch all the classic era but perhaps you could do recommendations for the classic era for example you could do three episodes of each of the classic doctors that way you don't have to go through all the classic era but you're able to enjoy the best of it😊
I'm not sure if US fans and other non UK fans of Dr. who know but we have something called BBC IPlayer which is all BBC shows on demand and it has every single episode of classic who from from William Hartnell's Era to Sylvester McCoy's Era. I believe some of the lost episodes have been Animated as the audio from the episodes are still around. So it's so cool to be able to watch all of classic who on demand. I'm currently going thru all of it and only on Jon Pertwee 3rd doctor Era:) (if you wanna use it a VPN should do the job if you're not from the UK)
Shame on you, promoting piracy.
If folk don't have a subscription service or a local public broadcaster showing these episodes then folk can support the creators by buying or renting them.
All episodes are available on BritBox in the US (not uk)
@Tao_Tology it's a 60 year old show that's not easy to find and watch so I think a bit of piracy is okay lol
@@CosmicNomad42 You are a thief, sweetheart.
Lol "uhh.....uhh.....it's, like, soooooooo difficult to find"
_UTTER_ horseshit.
@Tao_Tology not everyone can afford to buy over 30 seasons of a tv show, not everyone is as privileged as you. So if a vpn makes it easier and more affordable for some to enjoy a show or movie. So get over yourself lol
Have you guys watched "Ark In Space"? It has one of the great Tom Baker scenes and one of the all-time great scenes of the entire series.
Might be my favourite Dr Who episode of old who.
Saying this with some sarcasm/jest, but the Doctor saying THIS was his greatest foe he ever faced, is like me saying that the fish I caught as a kid was "thiiiiiiiis" big.
I and I’m sure many others would be ecstatic if you all decided to dip into Classic WHO more regularly. The whole of Classic Season 13 is so good and shows Tom Baker and Elisabeth Sladen at their tightest. Great reaction as always!
Clever how they blended this into Empire of Death too
I'd love for them to watch the rest of Tales of the TARDIS
I hope you'll react to other Tales of the TARDIS. There are some really good stories! And it's a good introduction to Classic Doctors!
And the sponsor for this video is expressVPN 🤣
Another fun fact, where are the story takes place in The Priory and where some of it was filmed on location was at the time actually Mick Jagger's house called Stargroves.
29:07 You guys should’ve continued making reaction videos to The Sarah Jane Adventures, it’s a great watch/show that featured 2️⃣ Doctors (10 & 11) as guest appearances, plus it’s a perfect spin off (which is rare) 🤣. Afterwards more reaction videos to Tales Of The Tardis cause one episode will make sense after watching all episodes of The Sarah Jane Adventures 😉🤓
You guys should react to more of classic doctor who, however, unless you look at places like the internet archive, or buy dvds and blu-rays, you won't be able to watch the full series. The first four episodes of season 1 are not available on streaming due to rights issues. On streaming, there are many gaps in 1960s Doctor Who that haven't been properly filled or official animated episodes for some reason are not on streaming. In places like the internet archive, you can enjoy various reconstructions missing stories and episodes that have not been officially animated yet, along with the entirety of the classic run (with all animated recons so far).
Funny enough, yesterday I watch this first time.
Well this is a surprise
That was awesome! Goin' Old Skool YESS! So many memories, late 70s on PBS at 3PM on a Saturday. Yes, the tunnel corridor effect leading to Sutekh's prison was updated I see. I remember my dad laughing when he saw those two mummies squishing that hunter between them. That turn on the heels that Tom Baker and Elizabeth Sladen did was taken from old movies with Buster Keaton or someone in that era. About a hundred years ago someone did it first.
I just got a better look at the updated force field visual effect just now. I didn't see it before.
You should react to the dalek episodes from classic who you can watch one story for all the previous doctor this is what i did when i have finished the new who for the first time its cool to see all incarnation fighting the dalek
I hope you guys see more tales of the tardis.
YES! YES!! Watch the other Tales of the TARDIS pleease!! :D
Two things you might be interested in the actor play Lawrence Scarman is Michael Shepherd he play Admiral Oswald in Empire Stikes Back and the outside of the house is Mick Jagger house he kindly give permission for filming.
Tales of The TARDIS is such a good concept to omnibus stories for modern audiences. I wish Tom Baker had a voice cameo as its the only TOTT without a classic character
On thinking about it I am dissapointed in the special effects they used for the Sarcophogous travel method. I'd have preferred the original multi-coloured lines effect had just been updated to look better rather than being completely changed to this new one.
OMFG YESSSSSSSS 😂 🙏
We're all here
I cant brlieve im saying this, but i actually preferred this to Empire of Death.
