Fun, weird and obscure facts from the Whoniverse. - Розваги
The fact that cats were originally Gallifreyan implies that there might be cats with regenerations, giving rise to the myth of cats with nine lives, and I want to see that as a story goddamnit
Why did I not put this together, that's brilliant
Doesn't the Doctor turn into a cat? When he visit novice hane? Wasnt that a weird jabbing-at-the-timeless-child thing?
Russell's chaotic, but he's anything but neutral.
@@nightowl8477 oh man I totally missed that, that man is damn honest when a showrunner does something he wouldn't have done. Even when he's technically Moffat bashing, I gotta love him
@@nightowl8477 oh no i kill a lot of cats lol. What if i kill the doctor next as a cat oh no.
@@SamyulDavis If BBC does not show a cat regenerate on-screen, they are an organization of cowards.
The fact that cats are gallifreyan reminds me of the whole flerken thing from captain marvel.

Where were the Flerkens during the Last Great Time War, for that matter?
I know it would be obscenely expensive and difficult to cast, but instead of having the continuation of The Doctor's story for series 13 I'd rather have a season of one-off episodes featuring random Doctors. One week we're on board the actual Titanic with the 9th Doctor trying to find an alien refugee before time runs out. Next week David Bradley stars as the 1st Doctor trying to solve a murder-mystery before the killer can get to his now-elderly grandaughter Susan. Next week we find the 8th Doctor in the middle of a Sontaran battlefield trying hopelessly to end the war. You get the idea. Never going to happen but a boy can dream.
This is all i've wanted for a while. It'd be unlimited and amazing in animation should the BBC ever manage to get their hands on an actual animation company.
@@SamyulDavis Nah let's get it in monochrome slideshows like the lost serial reproductions. lol
Big fan of the work you do btw. ;)
@@SamyulDavis Did you see the latest clip of Fury from the Deep, the one where the weed attacks? It looks a lot better than the other one IMO
I thought it would be awesome if the TV show did an episode that was just a collection of 5 8 minute long short trips. Have some framing plot where the TARDIS is broken down and her and the companion are sharing stories waiting for it to be fixed. It could be with past doctors or just the current team but it would be perfect to get some very silly ideas that wouldn't work as full episodes onto TV
@Najawin Oh my God. THAT'S why Sam's been making those OPs
I now want the series arc in series 13 to be a vast, complicated retcon explaining why there are 4 Tom Bakers across canon
Im still wanting on the answer to “why does the first doctor hate arabs?”
I think we'd all like to know
Maybe she still does
oh she definiteeeeely does
DAVIS looking forward to that season 13 episode.
@@SamyulDavis "Now they'll see the real you!"
Hiya Dusty
I stop everything whenever I see a new episode of Broke Canon
Same!
The 2019 Cats film was a plot by the Master. Both in Universe and in real life.
And Jeremy is the Timeless Child
pure evil
The dating checks out. I REALLY really like this fan-theory. There are a bunch of 80s stories that still have Ainley with the cheetah virus after all. I want to write that short trip.
@@SamyulDavis Any recommendations? Survival was the only story I really liked Ainley in and I wish we could have had more of the Master in that state
@@Ben-vf5gk 'Stop that Pigeon' might be hard to get a hold of, but it's in the first Short Trips novel. Top collection, and a short that i'll eventually cover on here.
A plot by the master? What if the master has a real passion for cinema

DAVIS, I wanted to take this opportunity to say that I'm finding it very very difficult to work on my December-marathon videos because I keep on procrastinating and binging all of your videos.
Please stop making such great content. Plz, thank you.
good boy
You're one to talk considering your back catalogue! I hope you know that i'll be saying the exact same thing come December again
Love your stuff and your helpful streams. Still at getting my foot into the door of british production, but this comment left a big smile on my face my man
@@SamyulDavis, great now I HAVE to finish the videos to return the procrastinating favour.
The Universe has an odd way of working things out, I guess.
And if you want TV production help, hit me up and I can try and help out as best I can!
@@MrTARDIS Oo, that's an offer I might just have to follow up. Let me know where's best to message you :)
twitter handle is @dread_davis :)
I'm here in the comments just to see what Josh Snares thinks lol.
I love dusty. If I ever write for doctor who I'll be sure to include them.
This means the WORLD to me.
@@SamyulDavis bro this is my dusty doctor who fanfic
scene 1
Dusty walk den tardis come and it 12 he then come with me dusty or die by dat dalek over there so dusty go in there
scene 2
dusty was in tardis and then licks butter off the thingy but it poisounous and den dies [this is the moment when u be sad style]
Scene 3
Stephen Butterfield founds out bout dusty dead so he files across the earth like in superman 1 turing back time and saving dusty
Scene 4
DAVIS say stephen best and he become leader of channel after he dies adn den dusty pays him back the forty grand.
de end
edit: seriously i need my money back, My children are starving
Yes, tune into Doctor Who. Cats aren't real...
My guy Davis spent 4 minutes and 38 seconds talking about how Cats are not even real
and i'm not even mad
"The Doctor giving Novice Hame a stroke" doesn't sound right
Ahh. I always look foward to the words "Welcome back to the Matrix"
Ah yes
My only reason to continue without loosing my sanity in lockdown
Broke cannons
Dusty Springfield, such a lovely name for a lovely pup.
Remember the time the Daleks were Ants? Now tell if Im joking.
Was literally binging this series, knew there was 24 eps and to my luck I go to finish off my binge and theres a new video!!!! Love it!!!!!!
Isn't Jeremy the name of the Prime Minister in one Third Doctor story??? Forget the Master being PM... I think the bigger threat is Jeremy Fitz Oliver.
13:06 I feel like the universe with the 'Dusty Doctor' is next door. I'm just vibing it.
Be honest, Sam. How many times have you dressed up your dog like Doctor Who?
bro what if dusty meets dusty springfield and then sings "i only want to be with you" with her.
edit: jesus christ i think am dying of a cute overload
The S8 capaldi costume only fits me, trust me I checked
@@SamyulDavis - nahhh, Troughton made the baggy clothes work.
7:00 Weird considering how obsessed with continuity Gary Russell's made out to be
Lol I've had a few casual talks about canon and continuity with Gary and I'm just glad we can still be friends without hating each other :D
Maybe he just disliked Jeremy that much that he was willing to contradict another story just to kill him off.
Weirdly, the thing about Time Lords being bioengineers before discovering time travel is supported by The Timeless Children. Maybe this is another weird canon thing Chibnall decided to explain in the series?
I would take back every criticism I have ever made if he wanted to go that specifically weird with the lore
"All cats come from Gallifrey, all dogs come from Skaro."
It feels like that should be reversed.
Nah man, 10 year old me knew what was up
One track minded adorable biting machines VS judgemental terrible snobby cats
On the topics of confusing in universe shows. Doctor Who is mentioned once in Only Fools and Horses, but Doctor who also references Only Fools in the revival at least once. Just a fun little fact.
I love these videos so much!
All this talk of cats and not ONE reference to Red Dwarf? Some easy pitches need to be swung at!
Also, your dog is adorable and I love them!
Cat is the culmination of the Timelord's plans, the rightfully heir of Gallifrey, the true Timeless Child!
This channel is so underrated, I love these vids
Another great video to watch repeatedly
12:08 I legit dream of a story where Doctor meets Douglas Adams. The story could be a positive and comedic spin on Lovecraft invasion, how fiction and works of art work for the best to improve people...and for the actual reason, have a bunch of silly hijinks with Adams, references to old DW, Hitchhiker, Dirk Gently, etc. Maybe even finish it off how half of both the latter series were readapted scripts from DW.
Paul Magrs isn't the only writer to make himself canon- John Lucarotti once did a short story where he (as in the actual him who wrote Doctor Who episodes) met the First Doctor and had some wine together in the inn from the Massacre. The First Doctor is apparently aware that he is a fictional character, and Lucarotti dismisses him as a hallucination until the waiter tells him the Doctor paid the bill
There's another one!
There are just so many.
I can’t get enough of these!
Ok, so Gallifrey pulled an Edison on every single thing they are known for, but they somehow invented cats? Like, that's their only legit contribution to the world?
I kinda like that for some reason :D
I love this series. I don’t know what I’ll do without it.
3:35 had me in stitches 🤣 thank you for this delightful video
i look forward to these so much. all hail DAVIS, master of canon.
anyway this is fairly unrelated but have you ever read the 12th doctor novel “the blood cell”, the one at the prison where 12 keeps escaping his cell and annoying everyone? i’ve been thinking about it a lot in relation to revolution of the daleks. if we don’t get a montage of 13 continuously escaping her cell and pissing off some judoon guards i’ll be a little disappointed.
jester of canon
gargoyle of canon
I have not! It's the only Capaldi novel alongside 'Diamond Dogs' that i'm yet to read. Your descriptions make it sound fun though.
DAVIS you are the canon sire
it’s the only one i’ve read! i’d recommend it; it’s written entirely in first person from the perspective of the prison governor. it’s really fun seeing 12’s continuous escapes and general antics from the POV of a stranger. also has one of the most brutal, gory and disturbing scenes in who i’ve ever seen. there’s a good balance there and it’s a lot of fun. basically i just wanna see 13 escaping her cell like it’s nothing to go annoy some judoon, it’s all i ask for
This is one of my faveroute series on UA-cam
Was Jeremy a prototype for the later version of Doctor 11? Awkward buffoon? That's where the Doctor got that face.
I will now forever imagine Jeremy having the face of Matt Smith
I had such a crush on Adric, when I was about twelve. I cried so hard at his death. I then crushed on Turlough.... So apparently I loved all the most hated companions. XD
We miss you, Dusty Springfield
If cats came from Gallifrey and the eighth Doctor was a cat at one point, than wouldn't that logically have to mean that the Doctor came from Gallifrey? I bet Chibnall didn't even think about that.
Looking forward to your Iris Wildthyme episode right after Faction Paradox. 👍🏻
Aren’t you going to get Volume 1 of the Jeremy adventures when it’s released by Big Finish next month? It’s about him, working in a clerks office, occasionally going out at lunchtime: I hear in the finale the boiler breaks down.
I'd prefer that to the new Dhawan Master set
@@SamyulDavis Nah man, 10 box sets of just Jeremy.
Woolsey is in the first Bernice Summerfield story (which is also Big Finish's first licensed audio - based on the Virgin book) and he's played by Nicholas Courtney.
Because he's also Puss in Boots.
Oh my god
Dusty is a good dog. A very good dog. :)
Jeremy fitzoliver sounds like Jeremy Fitzgerald from fnaf
I love this series because it shows the people that are against the timeless child plot line that the show has ALWAYS been fucked up and confusing.
BOOM
@@SamyulDavis bro did a bomb go off or something. Are you okay?
Doctor who: F🤫🤭😬 YOU FOURTH WALL!!! THERE IS NO FOURTH WALL IN DOCTOR WHO!!!
Maybe we should make a Dr who fandom page about dusty
Please say she's in some obscure comic story and nobody ever question it.
Might be my fave Broke Canon yet. keep 'em coming.
oh ye gods, Jeremy...
I have no clue why they created him - did they feel like Sarah Jane + The Doctor + The Brigadier was not enough?
And if they did, why the heck did they make such an infuriating character????
Bizarrely, all of the characters outside of the main 3 are hyper cartoon characters and stereotypes. They're such a strange listen to listen to when the actual content is quite dark.
@@SamyulDavis oh yeah - I have vivid memories of that scene in Paradise of Death where the over-the-top hammy villain suddenly threatens Sarah Jane with some horrifying torture ideas and implications
Awwww yisss, time for my most recent hit of Broke Canon.
Fans assume that canon is a strict progression of cause to effect but actually from the writers viewpoint it’s more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly time-y wimey... stuff.
Nice Video Keep It Up.
Oh just do an Iris Wildthyme video already. :) I adore the character. She needs to appear in New Who.
Her one is a little way off, I want to read her own stories too rather than just the ones where she crosses paths with the Doctor. But she comin'.
When is Hitch-Hikers Guide getting a mention? Absolutely love these shows
Beyond Krikketmen, there's surprisingly not that much beyond references in the dialogue! (Which is ironic as The Pirate Loop & Shada are basically repurposed Hitchhikers stories and Life, The Universe and Everything is basically a Doctor Who one)
One of my better videos is about Hitchhikers! I'm very proud of it. ua-cam.com/video/SykKmA4I_JU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=DAVIS
If cats are from Gallifrey, does that mean the nine lives are actually nine regenerations?
Wait did you seriously name your dog Dusty Springfield cause that epic
yeah man, i'm not even a fan
I just saw that dog in 2013 and thought 'that's not a dog name, that won't get old'
@@SamyulDavis bro am name my dog ringo starr or something
I fully recommend it, its a really good joke. Pick somebody you have literally no opinion on.
"Rupert Grint" would also be funny, because its an actual creature
@@SamyulDavis bro i love ringo starr. So i just name him frank sinatra.
edit: no maybe David Mitchell cause he like a monster
I now need a story with Rose the Cat and Dusty the Dog exploring the tardis
Dusty deserves unlimited rice pudding
we have elected to rename her "pissy"
All hail Dusty!
I legit lost myself laughing for 10 minutes at Pussyworld.
Dusty would be ideal pick for the fourteenth doctor
bro dog be all confused tho, chasing there tail and all that lol.
Doctor Woof?
Dogs are from Skarro? Oh hell no!
I knew my cat was an alien
Can we talk about how the TARDIS Data Core says that "8,008,278 was a number".
_Was?_ What happened? Did the Time War fuck up the laws of mathematics? Are we now living in a world with missing integers? What the hell?
I adore the hyper-literal wording on fictional encyclopedias
@@SamyulDavis We can only infer from this that this is a wiki compiled at the end of time itself, and we are seeing a projection of it into our present time via... reasons.
Say hi to Dusty for me!
Hello dusty! I hope your having a nice day
5:37 that better not be a sneaky jab at Jo she's great smh
Timelords have many lives, Cats have many lives. Boom
You should try to write the most absurd dr who story possible, that never actually breaks or changes canon, because I think you are the only person truly qualified to do so
You did forget that the master had a cat named shadow who appearing in first frontier
Okay, I will have to have a long talk with my cat about this being an alien business. See what she has to say.
I *am* a writer on a spin-off and I *will* namedrop Dusty the Dog! Cheers!
Please, please link me
@@SamyulDavis I will when it's out! Or DM you on Twitter, if you'd prefer. (Won't be released for a couple of months at least, though.)
Cats feature quite heavily in the first third of my latest Doctor episode, for your mewing pleasure 😉 ua-cam.com/video/-5rSUe2FpHU/v-deo.html
You should do a whole video on Iris Wildthyme.
We love you dusty ♥️
Next Try doing a series of Timeline Canon, where you start with the first doctor and show us how why and when an alternate time line replaces the old canon time line, Oh boy "The Waters of Mars." and saveing "The Captain" convincing him that his son should join the Police instead of Unit.
Dusty is a very lovely pooch
Greetings and Salutations Dusty!
3:12 i'm going to tell my kids this was warrior cats
Yeah, I’m guilty of trying to make myself Doctor Who canon too haha 😂
So far I’ve only had my likeness used :P
Anyone else wondering where the sound effect for the Matrix facts went?
Sometimes Premiere Pro turns its nose up at certain audio tracks lmao
It also got rid of a hilarious dying cat sound effect at 3:23 that i'm sad is gone
DAVIS Sorry to hear about that. Great work as usual, dude!
ah yes my fave series of DAVIS half reading the TARDIS wiki
got a bit of a fixture there huh
@@SamyulDavis oui
i love ur dog dusty
“had to stroke her before she died”... Sam, are you suggesting that HameXTen fanfics exist out there?
I suppose it explains why cats have 8 regenerations.
Dusty is such a good dog. Yes, she is!!!
How do I find the fic mentioned at 8:10?
The blog Life on Magrs
liberated canon
That clip of the Enterprise at the start made me think I'd clicked on a different video. Now I think maybe I really did click on a different video. Or I'm the only one who can see it?
Help!
Only 4? That's not nearly enough.
the question is do all gallyfreyan things have an acronym for a name
I mean, doesn't the TV show exist within the TV show? Multiple times?
I edited that part out because I remembered I did a whole mini-vid on Doctor Who's flagrant disrespecting of the fourth wall
3:12 You definetely should. But a little heads up: Oh No It Isn't, the story from which this image originates, is WEIRD. Like, Mind Robber levels of weird.
I've made the questionable decision to listen to all Big Finish in order of release and boy, what a first impression this resulted in
Ah, Whoniverse Paul Magrs.
👏👏👏
(I definitely didn't tell Davis of his existence. Definitely wasn't me...)
I had the Baker bit as an unfinished segment and your comment helped me turn it into a full bit, thank you :)
@@SamyulDavis More than happy to help. I'm getting really deep into the Iris Wildthyme stories, and I find so much juicy content it's impossible not to be utterly enthralled by it.
@Najawin Done! Sorry it took me as long as it did.
Oh god. We're just one hole in the void away from getting deleted or exterminated...
I bet faction paradox has a hand in all of this. They always do...
@Najawin Oh hi Najawin!
@Najawin Ambiguity is very fun to read, but nigh impossible to summarise.
I thought Ossyrians would have come up with cats
Dusty is amazing!
Hey Dusty!
You're a good dog.
She is!!!!!!!
