Harriet Jones Introductions and Sacrifice
Вставка

- All the times Harriet Jones introduced herself and also her sacrifice, but obviously...you know who she is. This is as good as my editing skills allow it to be, I hope you enjoy!
Hopefully the first of many themed Doctor Who montages I'll be uploading. They are in the works but there are some problems I'm having to work through to make them so I thought I'd get this one up early.
I aim to make the best Doctor Who montage videos UA-cam has to offer in tribute to this great show! I want to cover all bases so that people who also love the series can revisit the best moments from all seasons in chronological order, if you don't feel like watching full episodes.
I'm putting a lot of time and effort into these and they are exiting to make, so subscribe if you want to make sure you don't miss them when they get uploaded!
Have a lovely day :) - Розваги
Went from nobody knowing who she was to the daleks knowing who she was, that's nice
Could've done without the Daleks though
@@1withthelion never there always necessary
You know someone is someone when the Dalek’s
Ninth Doctor: Harriet Jones. Future Prime Minister. Three successive terms. The architect of Britain's Golden Age.
Tenth Doctor: I'm about to ruin this woman's whole career.
It's a shame he ruined her career as she was right
Tenth is My favorite Doctor, but when I remember This, Always get angry.
Doesn't she look tired?
@@lemonferret Harriet Jones would be like : "Princess Leia, we've chosen to test our Death Star planet blower-upper gun on your home planet of Alderaan."
Six words: Don't you think she looks tired?
its great when a joke character has a brilliant redemption. miss her so much.
Not a joke
frr
Life wouldn’t be the same if she didn’t have that ID card
9th Doctor: "Harriet Jones, future Prime Minister, elected for three successive terms, the architect of Britain's golden age"
10th Doctor: *I'm about to destroy this woman's whole career*
Harold Saxon: *Hold my beer*
More like *hold my laser screwdriver*
Black Loving Cat It is a Laser Screwdriver. The Master has a Laser Screwdiver meanwhile The Doctor has a Sonic Screwdriver.
People say she had a redemption arc but honestly I think she was great from day one. Rewatching this, it really strikes me how when the slytheen were about to get rose, a random young person Harriet had only just met, she throws herself from her hiding place and distracts them, fully intending to die right there to potentially save Rose.
Can we all just appreciate the courage this woman had? Harriet Jones was an amazing character and person and her praises are not talked about enough
And most of all...
We know who she is.
Harriet Jones is an example of an amazing redemption story arc
How did she redeem herself? She literally did nothing wrong
@@Malthizar Yes. She was Great.
@@Malthizar shot a fleeing enemy in a universe full of aliens who can get to earth in a hop, skip, and a jump. Generally, if you scare off someone who tried to mug you, then you shoot them in the back, you're very likely to get arrested and charged with murder.
Now, if the sycorax were just arriving after threatening the entire population, it would be perfectly justified to shoot them. The same thing continues to be true right up until they flee. Because until they flee, it's self-defence. There's no premeditation, you're just responding to an enemy invasion with force. But once they've surrendered and are fleeing, they're no longer combatants, and killing them is a war crime. You could however ground them and take them prisoner before they fled, gain some information from them and ransom them off if you really wanted to. But after letting them begin their retreat, you can't turn around and shoot them without making pretty much everyone within a few lightyears of you pretty hostile.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 no the sycorax were lying from the off with their blackmail, then their leader reneged on his promise to the 10th by trying to stab on the back, they were the aggressors to a planet that is nowhere near technologically enhanced enough
@theapexsurvivor9538 so if hitler ran away we should have been like damn it that rascal....the aliens where nit just trying to kill 1 race on earth but all off them. I.e they where quite literally far worse than hitler
Harriet Jones: You're a very violent young woman
Also Harriet Jones: NOW WITNESS THE FIRE POWER OF THIS FULLY ARMED AND OPERATIONAL DEATH RAY!
Boy, the Prime Minister job can really change a person.
harriet jones is such an underrated character, while her ID card gimmick was turned into a meme everything else about her was top notch.
offering herself up to the slevine to save rose, stepping up to leadership after an invasion, standing up to the doctor on his blatant idealism, and when her prediction came through instead of going "i told him so" she says she stands by her choice even after it destroyed her career and she is the one to step forward to save the planet.
i think the best part is the doctors actions actively fuck things up, he allowed saxon to take her place turning the golden age into a dark age, he's even uptight about her mention in the parralel earth, it's only until he finds out she died to save earth in his abcense where he finally feels regret.
this is why i bloody love this show, the relationships with the tinest of side characters get fleshed out immensely without needing a character arc, she was always brilliant from the beginning.
It wasn't really blatant idealism though, it was just letting a surrendered faction flee because they weren't worth ransoming. Her decision was a war crime (killing surrendered troops) and murder (waiting until after they were fleeing means that it's premeditated), and probably turned every potentially benevolent alien into an enemy.
The doctor knows that the sycorax will be taken into intergalactic court for breach of the shadow proclamation, and that his words of warning will be heard by the entire court. He also knows that the entire situation is quite public, so their surrender is being watched by all the aliens who are within 1AU of earth as a live broadcast. We see what happens when everything is behind closed doors in the runaway bride, when he knows that the surrendering is for his ears alone.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 it is moreso the fact that harriet has no knowledge of intergalactic diplomacy, for all she knows more powerful races invading is perfectly fine and is just the next stage in colonialism.
They could have kept their word, or they could have gathered reinforcements for a revenge attack, like just look at WW2, Germany were bound to follow the treaty of Versailles and yet they rearmed but nothing really stopped them.
Just because there are rules won't mean they are always enforceable so knowing about the fog of war and even that the rules have been broken many times yet the shadow proclamation doesn't decide to guard the planet, you can't really blame her for assuming she's the only one who can defend the planet.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 Jep, the Doctor knew that. But did Harriet?
Just so you’re aware it’s Slitheen not slivine
When I watched season 4 and heard her voice coming from the com I lost it. Her of all people was reaching out to the rest of the world. Her character development was well done, she went from PM to the saviour of planet Earth. Best character of all time imo.
I think it’s brilliant writing from Russel T Davies, to have a joke line throughout all her appearances (I/we know who you are)and then twist it on its head so it’s so poignant when she dies. ‘Oh you know nothing of any human, and that will be your downfall’
My favorite is Wilf and Sylvia:
"Marvelous woman...I voted for her"
"You did not!"
Bernard Cribbins. What a lovely chap. I remember the DW film he was in with Peter Cushing. OMG was he younger back then . . . and so was I. Harriet escaped into Bernard's Hole In The Ground.
Was Wilfred a Labour supporter and Sylvia a Conservative supporter?
Someone needs to make an edit of Shaun's mum turning into a Zombie standing up only to say
"Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister."
Omg yes
@@stevenhale2935 ua-cam.com/video/mNDQff1dwrY/v-deo.html
The idea never left my head. Had a friend make this.
@@thorn6070 This is the follow up I needed!!! Beautiful, thanks for replying. Flawless execution, if you'll pardon the pun
I always liked Harriet Jones! I still think she was right to do what she did. Well, maybe not “right”, but not 100 percent wrong.
Well, it was a war crime and stopped the sycorax going to court for breach of the shadow proclamation, thus stopped the Doctor's warning from being spread...
I'm not seeing any upsides, as all it does is make a bunch of technologically advanced aliens view you as aggressive, uncivilized, and potentially dangerous. Which is a good way to get your planet sterilized by Relativistic Kill Vehicles or other such niceties.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 how does it make earh look uncivilized whenthey invaded first and had a third of the population on roofs also earth doesnt know about any intergalatic rules
I said she was right since the sycorax leader did agree to flee but then went to kill the doctor after he let his guard down. There was no guarantee the rest wouldve listened
I love how there's a recap for this recap
Harriet Jones MP for Flydale North, Harriet Jones Prime Minister, Harriet Jones former Prime Minister. We know who you are.
you know she's a soldier from down to top, when she's a nobody and till she's the big boss still humble and state her introduction very well
Omg I just realized that Harriet's jones intro with the subwave has the four beats.
She’s such a badass that they sent not one, not two, but three daleks to take her down. Freaking brilliant.
Think the daleks were planning on using dalek formation 7 to totally annihilate the building because after they shot Harriet they would have had to shoot her computer as well so I think they were planning on destroying her in the building along with her stuff
This deserves 1 million views.
... i'll do my best.
Actually, in the canon books, it was revealed that she escaped the Daleks (she and Donna are my favorite characters).
How? And why?
Matheus21video I don’t know why, perhaps Davies didn’t feel good about killing off such a lovable character. How? She hit a trap door at the last moment and escaped on a motorcycle. I know it sounds weird but it’s canon.
@@tomball8092 Oh Ok, Good to know anyway. I Always Liked her, thought I find this end Good for her.
Sorry for My English.
Matheus21video that’s okay
@@tomball8092 That.. sounds like a fanfic tbh lol. I'm just gonna consider the TV canon, since it was a good and sad end to a great character.
If Harriet Jones was supposed to be the architect of Britain's golden age for three years, I wonder how she would've dealt with the 456 invasion in the alternate timeline where she stayed on.
She was awesome.
Always loved how even the Daleks were involved in the joke
I love how she shows her badge and says her full title to anyone she meets.
Comedically, the punchline of her holding that badge up so many times is the daleks' "WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE"
Best Tennant Era character.
Luckily she escaped through the trapdoor under the rug! Its canon in RTD’s book!
I love Penelope Wilton - she plays pretty awesome characters.
Lady Isobel from Downton Abbey 😎😎
You know it's a solid running gag when even the Daleks and Sycorax can get in on it.
Harriet Jones always flash's her ID dam
It was funny the first few times.
But the Daleks saying they know who she was is what brung it back for me.
BREAKING NEWS: Russel T Davies confirmed that Harriet Jones is actually alive. I don't know how as we all heard the Daleks blast her when her camera feed cut off.
Illusive Prime where did you learn this?
An article by the Radio Times I think. I'm more interested as too how she could survive, three Daleks shot her.
Illusive Prime I like to imagine that a future incarnation of the dr, realising the mistakes of ten, travels to that point in time with the Tardis on stealth mode (like what we see in the season 6 2 part opener) and crashes into the daleks like the war dr. And then the dr opens the doors telling Harriet to come with me and taking her to modern day Britain so that she can start to begin Britain Golden Age.
@@IllusivePrime y
It’s not canon. She’s still definitely dead (there is no canon anyway in Doctor who) but as far as the tv show is concerned, it’s not correct in regard to plots or lore. She’s definitely dead. RTD just wrote it as a joke in a doctor who poetry book that doesn’t have any affect on the show
The Dalek one is hilarious!!😁🤣
I can't help but feel Harriet Jones was underutilised and didn't get enough time to shine as she could have.
She could have been this era's Brigadier.
I hope Penelope Wilton gets to return to the role in some Big Finish Audio Dramas.
Brilliant writing for her character
1. Wormholes can take you to past and future.
2. Government name Boris Johnson.
3. Government address 10 downing Street London.
4. Write a letter to government saying there should be time travel police. When time machines are invented.
I like to think, after becoming prime minister, Harriet kept thinking "I really must stop doing that," after every introduction.
The Harriet Jones intro is the best running joke.
Harriet Jones: 18 Years later still a national treasure
me when going to assist on another ward
I find this death sadder than anyone other death in doctor who and I don't know why.
You're in luck, it's cannon that she escaped!
You stand before Her Excellency The Right Honourable former Prime Minister Harriet Jones PC MP, former leader of X party, former Her Majeesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Civil Service, former First Lord of the Treasury, the architect of Britain's golden age, the HBIC
Yes, we know who she is.
Completely unrelated to the video, is the camerawoman at 3:52 the person who played Niska in Humans??
Yes we know who you are.
4:32: The scene I came here for.
The daleks didn't get in the room for a while. She could have just hid behind a curtain or something
Don't you think she looks tired?
"Harriet Jones, Prime Minister."
“WE. KNOW. WHO. YOU. ARE.”
Me: “I’m pretty d*mned sure that *EVERYONE knows.”
was watching naruto and kakashi's fame reminded me of this.
Harriet Jones. Yes, I know who you are. And you won't be forgotten. Neither will Sarah Jane Smith (Elisabeth Sladen). I named my car after Sarah Jane so she's always with me still.
I love how Jackie went from: Who the hell are you?
To: it's the bleeding prime minister!
This was 2005, right? We could have done with three successive terms of Britain's Golden Age, it would bring us nicely to the present day.
titanmonarch the episode was actually in 2006
Oh yes. The coming back from the past a year ahead.
@@Momus425 no, it was Christmas 2005, David Tennant's first season was in 2006 but he was fresh out of regeneration in the 2005 Christmas special.
@@prof-eon no I mean the episode was set in 2006
best human non-compagnon character !!
Yknow what, let’s all just say Harriet died and redeemed herself, forget whatever a certain showrunner has stated in a poem
Every Doctor responding to "Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister"
1: Yes, I know who you are, dear.
2: Oh, I see you've been doing Parliament up a bit. I don't like it.
3: Dr. John Smith, UNIT consultant.
4: I am THE Doctor, former UNIT consultant!
5: Oh, hello. I'm the Doctor. Have you seen Adric?
6: Not now, I'm busy.
7: What do you think, Ace? Can we trust her?
8: Well what are you now? You can still do something for your country!
War: ...
9: Yes, I know who you are. Wait, former?
10: I'm... so sorry.
11: It's you! What are you doing here?
12: For heaven's sake, why can't you people leave me alone?
13: Are you Ed Sheeran? Is she Ed Sheeran?
Is this everytime she speaks? If not, where can I find this episode?
Harriet Jones the PM the world GB..🌍 actually needs ...dreams come what may.....
is it wrong that I chuckled when the Daleks said that line?
yes, we know who she is
I just wept like a baby
What happened is that audio at some points?
Back then when dr who was good
She didn't look tired to me.
I only now just realised that her actress is in Afterlife 👀
Just saw that too
Except she had a trapdoor on standby and jumped to bike on a basement garage amd speed off
It’s all canon
Really?
That’s badass
Yes!!! I know! Its awesome!
Neil: Here we go... 🙄
Harriet Jones: Harriet Jones, MP for Flydale North
Jay: And that's it, you've now officially told everyone you've ever laid eyes on. 😑
Harriet Jones: I just think it's important that people know, that's all.
Gotta respect the reference
The crossover we all need
Fantastic running joke
Harriet Jones, strong, well written female character
What is the world does MP Flydell north mean?
Member of Parliament for Flydell North
Do you think the doctors number is some ones actual number and if people have tried to phone it
Its rather necessary when you happen to be someone's former prime minister
is it weird that she sounds like a dalek lol
Oh my god is that Harriet Jones; Prime Minister??
😢
I like it when even aliens know who Harriet Jones is. 🤣
Who the hell are you?
Harriet Jones, MP for Flydale North
Harriet Jones, Prime Minister / Former Prime Minister
Yes, I/we know who you are
how'd we go from harriet jones to rishi sunak
The thing is she was right, the Cyberman, darleks, 456, the Miracle. Doctors not alway their
Harriet Jones MP for flydel north
I'm sorry, but who is this person?
Who's this chick again? Wish there'd be just a little exposition around her
Malthizar Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister
NINTENDOSH we know who she is
MP for Flydale North
Wait so... Nine thought Jones was Prime Minister for "3 successive terms" ie. _15 Years_ ...but Ten ended her career in a year or two at most.... so how did Nine learn of the first 'fact' if Ten made that not the case?
timey winey
bro made it up, he never met her as pm before he was 9 or when he was 9 later so he was just making shit up
Yes I know who you are.
Who is she?
She ia harriet johnson, former prime minister
We know who she is.

I actually don't know who you are ?
harriet was right
I’m sorry, who is Harriet Jones?
4:51 why does he say President? The UK doesn't have presidents
Matthew Randell He was on Earth in a parallel universe, they had a president instead for some reason lol
@@slipperynipple1011 Ooh. Thanks
@@dividebyfive Really?
such a flawed, but noble women who cared about nothing more than her King and country.
I Salute you Harriet Jones.
She have made mistakes, but her homeland was always at the heart of her decisions.
The Doctor says she was "elected for 3 successive terms". She couldn't have been though. She could only have been Prime Minister for 2 years at most.
If the Doctor hadn't interfered in "The Christmas Invasion," she would have been elected for 3 successive terms. The Doctor changed history though.
timey wimey
Who we really need as PM...
I have a lump in my throat after that. Probably a jellybaby, gone down the wrong way. 😢
