Actor William Hartnell felt trapped by a succession of hard-man roles. Wannabe producer Verity Lambert was frustrated by the TV industry's glass ceiling. Both of them were to find unlikely hope and unexpected challenges in the form of a Saturday tea-time drama. Allied with a team of unusual but brilliant people, they went on to create the longest running science fiction series ever made.

A behind the scenes for a simulation of a behind the scenes.
Yep....
Now they have to do a behind the scenes on the behind the scene of the behind the scene of Doctor who.
"Doctor Who: "The Making of An Adventure of Space and Time" - Behind The Scenes"
Plus a huge spoiler near the end for those who hadn't watched the program yet.
I am your 200th like.
Their behind the scenes are cool!
Rest In Peace William Hartnell. and Thank you for helping start a legacy
As I see the portrayal of William Hartnell looking across the console at Matt Smith, I seem recall one of the First Doctor's early lines:
"You can't re-write history, not one line!"
don't forget Sydney Newman who created the original idea of a show :)
i'm doing a season by season retrospective, and i want to talk about Mr. Hartnell once i finish season 4, and the thing that worries me most is that I won't do it well enough. I know so many who love the series and i wanted to start from the beginning and make a guide for the long lasting things (like how Daleks started out in the second/third arc) now that i'm past the first regeneration i want to cover the character and the actor (i call myself the character investigator)
I love this show, and my small series is what i can bring to the table for the next generation of fans.
Papa Acahalla no words. truly.

It doesent matter who the Doctor is. It doesent matter how the Doctor looks like. Its the Doctor either way. They say he’s alone. They say he lost it all. Gallifrey or not, the Doctor made remarkable friendships and memories the whole time.
“I will come back. Yes I will comeback”
“you where fantastic. And you know what, so was I”
“I don’t want to go”
“We all change.”
“The 11th hour is over”
“I will always remember...when the Doctor..”
*WAS ME*
Happy 54 years Doctor Who c,:
so the Master disguised himself as a 1960s director of a show about the Doctor
Clever isn't it 😂. I had no idea he was in it so when they mentioned his name I just thought omg the Master was there??!!
He could be a good Master with better writing...
@@HKy0uma his first two episodes as the Master was good, terrifying good.
But then came the Doctor origin reboot shit and although Sacha did his best the writing just drag him down.
Roger Delgado does remain the best Master though.
@@HKy0uma Better than some.
so this is the behind the scenes of the behind the scenes?
That's exactly what I was thinking lol!
Behind the scenes of a dramatization of the events that would be the behind the scenes, if that's not confusing ^_^
James Sinn
Yeah. Perhaps we could say "Behind the scenes of a reconstruction of the behind the scenes".
Sceneception.
I'm not an actor (or even claim to know anything about showbusiness for that matter) but playing someone who is still alive - and in the room non the less - has to be one of the toughest jobs they can possibly do.
It was perfect, the way they portrayed the struggle that all of these people had to go through in order to create such an amazing work of TV magic. Everything from the adorable relationship between Hartnell and his grandaughter, the show gaining its first firm footing with British kids, and Verity herself, unwilling to let the show fail without a fair shot, was very nicely conveyed. Matt Smith at the end was a beautiful touch, as was the 10th-Doctor-reminiscent 'I don't want to go' line when Hartnell finally moves on from the iconic role he helped to create. Seems all Time Lords feel that way at the end, don't they? The script was very well written, too.
David Bradley was so good playing William Hartnell, he went on to play the Doctor for real.
Okay, I'm sitting here in tears; this is the REAL 50th Anniversary Special! I got misty when I saw Jean Marsh and Anneke Wills, the heart swelled when Matt Smith appeared, and the floodgates opened seeing the Three Doctors and Mr. Bradley's parting words.
Mark Gatiss has written some good Doctor Who episodes but this is the most brilliant and beautiful thing he's done for the show by a long shot. I even know people who aren't Doctor Who fans who really liked it. To me this was the real 50th special
I've not been a huge fan of a lot of Doctor Who since it came back in 2005, but this is a really fantastic piece of content for the show. It was far more meaningful for me than the actual 50th.
I was there age 6 , for the first episode in November 1963. When I watched "Adventures in Space and Time" it really took me back, a magnificent programme.
This movie was almost perfect...then they had to ISH on it with the Matt Smith cameo @ the end!!
@@boybawang1981 What's wrong with it?
@@kiwidotempo1858 didn't need The Chin Doctor...who may I remind U spit inside the TARDIS!!
I always tear up whenever I see that scene with "William Hartnell" looking over at Matt Smith at the Control Panel!
One of the best scenes in TV history, really. I cried like a baby when I saw it and, like you, still tear up. Very moving
agactinggirl Too bad they made a mess of it :/
Scott Gerrard What do you mean, they made a mess of it?
One moment Matt is behind the console, then he's infront of it. In a second
Scott Gerrard Huh? There were two shots of Matt. He seemed to me to be behind the console both times. {looks around for support}
"Susan, turn on the fornicator!" If I had been there that day more than 50 years ago, I would've laughed myself to death.
the people behind this film had a true love and admiration for those who started it all and that is one thing you can not fake
"He remains the best Doctor Who for me, naturally" - William Russell
There! Both names are fine
+Jeremy Xu In the serial titled "The War Machines" there was a weird computer thing that said multiple times, in the show, that Doctor Who is required, so not only is it normal off camera but on camera as well xD
William Hartnell was credited as Dr Who in the end credits of Classic Who.
@@sabihasayeed1670 Patrick Troughton was as well. Can't remember when they switched to crediting 'The Doctor'.
@@cameronyoungcg9270 they started crediting the actor as the doctor in 1980! Lol
@@diamondaxe4133 oh really? I didn't think it was that late.
Watching David Bradley in this it took me awhile to realize I wasn't watching William Hartnell but the guy who played Argus Filch and Walder Frey.
Every time I hear his voice, I think of the Red Wedding...
"Oh dear, we are in trouble."
I love that he is finally getting the chance to do it for real
Don't forget he was the allegedly alleged pedophile old guy suicidal sailorman in Broadchurch series 1.
And Abraham Setrakian.
Mark Gatiss - What a legend! This docudrama truly deserves a sequel and it would work brilliantly, just to see how Patrick went through all the troubles of being the new doctor since it was the first regeneration!
I would love too see one for every doctor, it would be, for a lack of words, FANTASTIC
He is absolutely amazing on so many levels! He’s done Doctor Who, Sherlock, Dracula.... and I know there’s a million others but those are just a few of my personal favorites!!
The BBC should have used the cast to remake the lost episodes as well.
I'm listening
not a bad idea...
Finished watching this early this eve...one of the single best docu-dramas (with heart felt humor as well) I have EVER seen...plus, the final scene made me literally choke up whole both smiling and crying a bit...can't recommend it enough...I LOVED it...
I just finished watching this documentary and in the end I really did cry feeling so happy! So I know how you feel >.
I'm watching a film about filming a film about filming a film....
Groovy
If Bradley doesn't win the BAFTA next year for best performance by an Actor in a Leading Role, there is no justice!
Looks like he wasn't nominated. No justice indeed.
David Young He got the sack instead.
I absolutely love Sacha Dhawan, his portrayal here and as the Master are both just magnificent and illustrate his enormous acting ability, from the calm yet confident Waris Hussein, to the Nutcase that is the Master
This was absolutely perfect..I..I...Don't know what to think...My feels are messed up..And when Matt appeared,I was all in tears.Bravo!
One of the finest films I've ever watched. Yes, a true tribute to THE Doctor William Hartnell. And what a joy to have Carol Ann Ford and William Russell as cameos in it as well. :)
The actors and actresses are uncanny in ability and appearance. It's like they could... Rewrite the lost Doctor Who Episodes. Actually, that's not a bad idea...
Rewrite? No rerecord the original scripts.
FM4ever
Someone needs to pitch this pronto. If not a full rework; just the actions and movements choreographed by surviving footage and stills.
Of course use the original audio whenever possible.
And then we can have at least something more tangible than animation...
Dom Powers I like the animated episodes. Especially the ones for The Invasion .
*****
I wasn't dissing animated episodes, just saying that physical actors are tangible. Also, I'm an upstart Old-Who guy so I'm kinda new here.
no no no no no I wish people would stop suggesting this.
Firstly only a handful of the actors are actually in this in any significant capacity, and only Susan and maybe Barbara could pass off as their originals, who barely have any missing episodes anyway.
Perhaps more importantly, it's highly likely they've found the episodes anyway.
STOP MAKING ME CRYING GATISS
don't cry, Rarity...
This is a Behind the Scenes for a Behind the Scenes.
it's a video where we watch actors who are playing actors who are playing roles ....
Does someone have a video of someone editing this video?
@@ValpasKankaristo And then make a document about him
What is it about this show? I only started watching it recently and binged on sessions 1-7 in a few months and have only gotten up to web planet in classic Dr who and I love it so much! This vid brought tears to my eyes. "Heartnell" look across at Matt, and the look of graduated on Matt's face for the legacy stated by the 1st Doctor... oh I just love it so much. I get the feeling any one who plays the Doctor is first a whovian themselves.
Proud to be a Whovian. ♥
as are all of us
Tell me about it
@@TheWhovianWizard Not really anymore xD ! They killed the show lately.
Much to my surprise I shed a tear at the end of the drama when Matt Smith showed up and bloody hell what a stunning performance from David Bradley.
Just saw the full episode for this and I have to say, it was amazing. Love every bit of it, just makes me even more excited for Saturday. I bet no one who made Doctor Who in 1963 ever imagined the show would continue on for another 50 years and STILL continue to thrill audiences and attract even adults. Fantastic show!
I have to agree. Doctor Who is the best show the BBC ever made.
THE MASTER DIRECTED DOCTOR WHO. Now I’ve seen it all
what a fantastic piece of drama. the whole thing was perfect,but David Bradley really did it for me. this is what i pay the license fee for. well done to everyone involved.
The 50th anniversary episode was good, but there was no better way to celebrate Doctor Who than this special. It was absolutely brilliant and the last few minutes brought me to tears. Thank you Mark, and thanks to all those ones who made this possible. I wish Verity could have seen it.
Why can we not have Susan reconnect with the doctor for her first regeneration. can you imagine the tears as he meets his granddaughter again.
He didn't cry when he saw again in the 5 Doctors, he is over her, thats why he dumped her on Earth.
Big FInish An Earthly Child.
I just have to say, this was one of the greatest pieces of film I have ever seen
From 3 years later: it still is.
They did an amazing job with the casting! They all looked so much like the real people!
Yeah, haha sorry, when I wrote this it was really late XS
RusherAndLovatic
Except Troughton
Who’s here to see Sacha Dhawan after watching today’s episode of “Doctor Who”?
Hahahaha the Master! Lol
Manmeet! Davos!
The Master has been trying to mess with things behind the scenes from the very beginning.
as a fan of the show since the tom baker years, he's my doctor BTW...i can only say that this show is more popular than it has ever been and it seems to me, this show will go on when the time comes for ME to regenerate..lol...William Hartnell...wherever you are...take a look at what YOU started...Patrick Troughton...take a look at what YOU continued...and Jon Pertwee...take a look at the Golden Age of Doctor Who you began and molded...and as Nicholas Courtney aka the Brigadier who is now resting once said, "Splendid fellows...ALL of you!"
I wish they bring carol ann ford back for a cameo
I would love a episode where the doctor returns for her. Would be incredible.
Liam Harris I imagine a scene where the older Susan (Carole Ann Ford) sees her younger self (Claudia Grant). That would definitly be awesome to see.
We get more of Susan, thanks to Big Finish Productions’ work with the original cast. Ford reprises her role in a number of episodes.
Carol Ann Ford was in this as the mother calling for her boys the night Dalekmania swept the country. But it's absolutely time for Susan to return to Doctor Who.
This is should do this but on how the show came back in 2005 in another aniversary
The 100th anniversary
Huh…Fifty years from now, after the second regeneration cycle, we'll have one on the making of The Day of the Doctor…Some actors, playing Matt Smith, David Tennant,Peter Capaldi (?), John Hurt, Jenna Coleman and Billie Piper...
lol I love that you add a question mark after Peter Capaldi.
Or about the beginnings of the Reboot... Like, Christopher Eccleston, Russel T Davies, Billie Piper, etc... Aw, can't wait! Except it's going to be a very long time till we find out...
Soon….We will be sitting in front of our holographic tellies, waving our canes to the Doctor Who theme
Well, probably not Billie Piper...
I'm not sure though. Times have changed, now everything is documented. Is it really necessary to make a film about everything that happened backstage... when we already have actual footage of must of what happened Backstage ?
I mean sure, there's the actual trials and tribulation of getting the show to work, all the decision making parts and stuff, but still, I don't feel like they'd make a movie out of this....
you know when your as old the guy who played the first doctor you got to feel sorry for him, not only was his age catching up to him. He must had been so sad to know he was not going to be playing the doctor anymore. I mean how would you feel if you were in his position. and saw good friends leave, and someone new play the role of something you done so well. In a way that man will be not just the first doctor but one hell of a good actor RIP
wow warris hussein aged well
I agree
Maybe Waris is the Doctor? haha
Indeed! He seems too to be more than capable and sharp enough to direct a modern story arc, special - or perhaps a whole series?! Oh what athought... :-)
Of course, mentally and spiritually, (as she is 'no longer with us') he'd be directing with her no doubt in the forefront of his mind and with watching over it all...
He sounds like Varys
Asian genes ; )
Apparently Mark Gatiss got that wig for his Third Doctor outfit at the same place they got Sylvester McCoy's wig for Time and The Rani
Is that the same place where McGann got HIS wig for the TV Movie and Smith the one for his final episode?
timrob12 it was
Alex Robinson Whoever made those wigs should start a shop, selling real wigs used by the Doctors.
yes
Thank you to every one who was involved in this,a fantastic job!!
This is like Mad Men meets Doctor Who and it's awesome :D
More like Mad Men starts Doctor Who and it sticks.
Please BBC - reconvene the cast of An Adventure in Space and TIme for a remake of a lost sixties serial. Marco Polo, The Crusade, Power and Evil of the Daleks....
That's a very good idea! to remake, not only the lost episodes, but the first series of the show!
Le Docteur Well, if they were to remake the whole first series, they would have a lot of angry fans on their hands... If they remade any of it, they'd have to stick to the lost episodes.
randomdave30 The BBC could actually expand on the idea and create new stories in between.
Seriously!! Or maybe a special where the first doctor comes back.
Eyedyeoff10 well then XD
HAPPY 50th anniversy doctor who!
Everything about it was done to perfection, casting, writing, props, music, everything! Kudos, BBC!
It was more than perfect. I love it! what a great script, mark, well done!
This is a wonderful little clip.
Great Behind the Scenes of a terrific special.
This was great made me cry :')
Such a great special
this is behind the scene of the behind the scene :D
DAvid Bradley should play the 1st Doctor in an episode along Peter Capaldi's!
With The actors who portrayed Ian, Susan And Barbara.
Brian Palmer I take it you're ecstatic for Christmas
Brian Palmer someone is happy
its almost like you knew :P
You got it
he knew it
Two movies that I've seen gave me LOTS of feels. This one, and the Rock-afire Explosion documentary from 2009. Happy 52nd birthday, Doctor Who!
This was a fantastic show. Had me all choked up in 50 ways. It was hard enough seeing "Hartnell" reach underneath one last time to turn on the TARDIS, and then to have him look up and see Smith was just something more. I think though that it might have been just a teensy bit better to see all the surviving Doctors rather than just the current one, no disrespect to Smith of course.
Wonderful TV film, and lovely "behind the scenes"! And thank you so much for putting up English captions. I don't think that's appreciated as it should be :o)
Sacha Dhawan's got the distinction of playing both the show's first director and its greatest villain later!
the best dr who episode ever... so beautifully done
An Adventure in Space and Time was absolutely brilliant! If this had of been the actual 50th special episode, I would have been ecstatic. I do hope the 50th lives up to this. This gave me far more great appreciation for the show, and how it could have easily never happened in the first place. Also, this is why I really want Mark Gatiss to be head writer for Doctor Who.
brings a tear to my eye!!
This was absolutely Wonderful!
This is brilliant!
I watched it and God I loved it! It made me smile and cry, wonderful work Mark Gatiss and the actors were fantastic!
wow just wow words can not describe how wonderful this was just perfect in everyway
Nobody talked about the futuristic music that was so different to anything at that time ,Delia Derbyshire and the british broad casting crew made the music ,white noise by electric storm is a ground breaking album they also made ,far ahead of its time .
I really hope more missing episodes are found. I would love to see more of William Hartnell. Even if the lines are wrong, the tapes are worth more than gold.
it makes me cry. happy birthday!
This biopic was amazing! Moved me to tears! I love this show and I hope that it'll still be around for another 50 years and more!
That in a word was AWESOME!
The more I see, the more I'm wanting to see.
Happy 50th Doctor.
A New Incarnation!
I shall be 68 years old when Doctor Who celebrates its 100 years . I cant imagine what kind of wonderful adventures awaits us :D
“Absoloutely beautiful. Incredible attention of detail.”
*Has a wall with 8 Roundels instead of six.*
This was so good. In tears towards the end but then again Doctor Who always seems to do that.
That happens to me too, and I'm a guy =/ Pretty sure that's not very manly...
Lol I know a few guys who teared up at Doctor who before its all cool
Well at least I'm not the only sap. Good to know.
This is so emotional!! Can't wait
Thank you, im crying now
I went into this wondering if they would put Matt Smith in. I won't lie, I was a bit worried about it, but the way it was done was perfect. A look between the First and the Eleventh, a look across 50 years of time that didn't need words. Thank you Mr Hartnell, I owe you so many memories
This brought a tear to my eye happy birthday Doctor Who
This looks bloody amazing.
i loved this when it went out i cried like a baby at the end wouldnt be at all surprise if it scoops up awards mark gatiss you are a flipping genius what a perfect tribute to doctor who
I really enjoyed watching An Adventure in Space and Time. It even made me well up a bit at the end. This really inspires me to delve into the Classic Who world!
Man, I hope this doc comes out on a dvd of An Adventure of Space and Time. Just watched the movie for the 5th time and still blubbering. What a masterpiece!
I love that they got the cast of this movie to do the voice work in the “Fist Doctor Adventures” for Big Finish!
I can't wait to see this!
Great, great show. Thank you Mark Gatiss for allowing us an insight into another time. Beautifully realised, it was great to see some of the stars of the original series there as well. And that final scene - clever and poignant. Really good and I hope it gets the awards it deserves!
I loved the shot of Hartnell on the screen and in the background you can see the Daleks set up for the Power of the Daleks shot in the ship. That was so cool to me first time I saw it
ugh, love david bradley so much. he's diverse and is a fantastic actor. i'm really excited to go see this when i get the chance!
Love it love it love it... "disappearing bloody Police Boxes for god's sake!..." FABULOUS. Thank you Mark Gatiss, thank you Bretton Hall where we were both educated!
This one came on here in Australia after the day of the Doctor and fitted in really well. I find it interesting that William Hartnell was the man they described for Dr Who, old stern man that people respected and a hint of magic. To see him at the start and connecting with his grand daughter and interacting with the kids in the park. He totally em brasses the role and I think that came across on screen, He is the original doctor you might say. It certainly has become an adventure indeed Mr Hartnell.
This really was watching British Mad Men! I love every part of this. It was all brilliant. Loved the Matt Smith cameo. What an honor it must be for William Bradley to have played The Doctor with such perfection in this program, and now to be able to actually play the 1st Doctor in Doctor Who! Also, God bless you Carole Ann Ford.
5:26 oh my god it's The Master
I shed a tear! :)
Looks fantastic! Can't wait to see it later tonight!! :)
Wow, amazing.
Timeless and original the 50 years of that time lord and his amazing adventures in time and space were fantastic it was a joy as child to Watch from behind the sofa and a very important piece of television history to watch like the first moon landings and I hope it will go on forever it is timeless after all! To those who made it possible thank you so very much a lot of children of the 60s like to say thank you as well.
Doctor Who forever never give up and keep running!
Having been born after the original show's run came to an end my only experiance with doctor who had been re-runs on UKTV gold and the videos the small number of videos that we had around the house, one of those being a box-set involving 2 omnibuses with the Daleks. The first one of the 2 that i watched was Sylvester Mccoys (7) "rememberence of the daleks", but the other one was William Hartnells "the chase". Watching this just brought back all those memories of watching the hartnell run, and seeing how much he embraced the role (knowing how the set should be run better than the replacement producer and technician was fun) and how much fun he was having doing it. I got teary eyed at the end, knowing the events that were going to happen of course, but it just hit it home. Hartnell made the doctor, and the doctor saved him. The scene at the end with the "i don't want to go" (a reference to numero 10-ant) just hit me. The cast chosen for this docudrama were perfect and i aplaude you all. This was truly a laboure of love for the doctor, and it deffinantly shows. :)
Moffat and Gatiss have been some of the luckiest fans in the world. Almost breathtaking
Last month I was 60 and remember watching the first episode. The future has arrived and watching this is like travelling back through time myself.
The whole production was a labour of love from start to finish. The actors were wonderful and the attention to detail was so exact. That console room set actually looked better than the original and I'd love to know which broadcast museum they hauled all that antique equipment out of for this film. An excellent celebration of the programme's legacy. Especially toward the end.
The perfect companion to the 50th anniversary. It was simply beautiful.
Great programme. Met David Bradley in 2017, lovely gentleman.
