😥

Yes it is sad. I sat with Nicholas Courtney & his wife at a brunch at a small convention and they were both very nice & interesting people.

Katy Manning still alive

@@mark-shane That's true but Katy Manning isn't in this clip.

Time stops for no man or woman, unless you're a timelord

At least he died amongst friends, I still don't want to think about poor Two....

Tbh, I find the Second Doctor's regeneration to be more haunting and eerie than the rest of the Doctors. Sure, the Seventh was shot by group of gangsters and then his body was fucked up by Medical Doctors who didn't understand Time Lord biology, and so one. But the Second Doctor is essentially being executed by his *own* people.

@@DavidLopez-up3qm the Second Doctor went on missions for the Time Lords (e.g. The Three Doctors, The Five Doctors, The Two Doctors) before being forced to regenerate by animated scarecrows, so that's possibly even more messed up when you learn that he was used as a tool, in the same way the Master was used as a tool by Rassilon in The End Of Time.

@@Thicc_Cheese_Dip Didn't The Two Doctors took place after Fury From the Deep?

@@horaciosi waaaaaaay after fury of the deep was 1967/8 two doctors was 1985/6

Oh, I totally agree! He could so more with one look than most could with a paragraph of dialogue!

*Tibetan lama materializes in room* -_- "Won't you introduce me to your friend, Miss Smith?"

The Brigadier was never a companion. He was a friend and ally of the Doctor ever since the Doctor's second persona. He's also my favorite character in all of Doctor Who.

pytko3 And you don't consider that a Companion? He may have never actually travelled with him, but I'd say given all he's done with and for the Doctor, that he's actually more of a Companion than most of his TARDIS mates.

When it comes to male companions I have two favourites I can't decide between, Brigadier Lethbridge Stewart and Captain Jack Harkness

Paul Bottomley Yes, really

Paul Bottomley The Fourth Doctor was quite an erratic fellow, wasn't he?

Paul Bottomley you don't say...

As far as understaments go, this was a huge understatement

Paul Bottomley No kidding lol

Koba My Dad was sad when he had to regenerate (third Doctor) But hey! At least he enjoyed Tome Baker too, and I teared up a bit when David Regenerated, but then an cool and awesome Doctor came afterwards to replace the legendary David to heal us all from the pain of David leaving

Both legends. Great for different reasons.

“The” legendary Doctor

All Doctors are legendary.

I was sad when Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Tenth and Eleventh Doctors left

The second doctors was pretty sad too

What about Five. Pretty nasty.

I got chills from reading this it is a really sad scene

Lol

It was just the angle the shots were taken that produces that illusion. But yes it does kind of appear that way in this scene.

Speaking of Doctor actors who could pass as different-aged versions of other Doctor actors, Tennant and Capaldi.

It's also funny how Tom looks more like Jon nowadays.

Same could be said for Troughton and Hartnell.

Baize?

@@markfox1545 *blasé

Yeah, and you can't find proper levitating monks with a high-pitched voice these days, either...!

um they still do...

People still fall in films lol and that was clearly a stunt double

Troughton, Pertwee, baker, Hartnell, in that order for me, to this day never enjoyed any of the others

@@John-uf8nt Yes, it seriously declined after the 4th doctor. The show was taken over by people who did not like the show.

@@jamesline5103 couldn't agree more 1 - 4 doctors was Pinnacle it lost its magic after that, 2,3,4,1 in that order for me, 3 and 4 pretty neck and neck but 4 seems to be most favourites

@@John-uf8nt Pertwee is my favourite, although Troughton might be the best actor. Baker is great too but I never thought he outshined his 3 predecessors. Everybody after Baker suffered from John Nathan Turner. Davison had no gravitas or credibility as somebody smarter than the humans. Came across as a slightly unimpressed school teacher. The scripts also got worse. People say Caves of Androzani (last Davison story) was good but I thought it dragged on. It dragged despite superficially moving faster and having more action.

Some Girl42 Jon stands!

Reminds me of how Peter Capaldi started and ended with the eye close-ups.

Ouchie, he had to have had a rough time.

he got pwned

sonic BOOM!

The8thDOCTOR it's surprisingly easy to do without hurting yourself, all depends on how you fall

Tom May explain pls.

Agreed

Agreed

Jon Pertwee was far superior in my opinion

Agreed, but I'd add Patrick Troughton too.

I HAVE TO CONCEED, THAT IS A TRUE STATEMENT!

Gregg Barnes I dont know, I think I prefer Rose Tyler

@@comediareal1756 nah Jamie is the best

Alas...

I imagine that Russell T Davies' team thought so as well, given the spinoff cut short by the passing of Elisabeth Sladen.

Sarah Jane was legendary. She number one to me, followed closely by Martha Jones.

Jack O'Neill “I want the life extension tecnology!”

Do you know anything about Doctor Who

@@Batt-dv5ng like 4 months late but wooosh

Hahaha love the 70’s

Yeah, the 70's has some _weird_ TV show moments...

Great acting from Pertwee before the regeneration also when talking to his old mentor and realising that everything was his fault and realising he had to die because of his actions. Very sad.

Wttw here in chicago. Jon pertwee!

Hurts me even more knowing she's passed away. RIP.

Well, Tom Baker is still here, but for how much longer?

94830 086436 *5 secs later:* TV:reports have come in saying tom baker has died. My reaction:OOHHHHH GAWD WHY!!!!!!!

Don't jinx it!

@@mcmadnessgaming9796 To be fair I'm fairly sure that happened in the 80s/90s when an American actor of the same name died.

Scott Price The current energy release is thanks to the Sisterhood of Karn.

+Dana S Not true at all. That's a fan theory that is easily debunked.

I think the lack of special effects from 3 to 4 may be partially due to their similar heights and that Tom Baker sort of looked like a young Jon Pertwee at the time.

Old camera's couldn't see it. ;)

MrDalek2150 the noses of tom and Jon are very similar.

Have you got any ??

im not from that era but I have to agree

which is why someone, some channel needs the re-run the classic series from beginning to end... so the new fans can see what was missed, and the old fans can remember what was... as well as cringe uncontrollably at the old "FX' ;)

Kiroth71 Horror channel are running old Dr Who's.

Sara Jane isn't dead

TheGodParticle Elisabeth Sladen died of cancer.

Sarah Jane unfortunately did pass away...

not 13th doctoe now :D

+George Reid There are very few emotional scenes in the classics to be fair. I love (not really) how you call Chris 9th, but Capaldi 12th/13th. Like wtf? If you are going on the whole "13th" thing (he's still 12th) than say 10th for 9th.

Ionut Maris Your need to spell out your sarcasm is somewhat endearing. The mention of the 13th was a gentle stab at people who argue over numbers (as I seem to have attracted already it seems), I consider the Doctors as 1-12 then the War Doctor.

George Reid "I consider the Doctors as 1-12 then the War Doctor." So do I. I thought you were one of those people who don't.

I miss the Doctor strangling people

Please, no regeneration scene is complete without a levitating monk explaining the process with his high-pitch voice. And 11th didn't have THAT, DID HE?

Daniel Parejo He destroyed a Dalek Ship with his regenerative energy. The Third Doctor didn't do that, DID HE?

***** Indeed he didn't, haha (In case it wasn't clear, Smith to Capaldi regeneration is my favourite ^^)

***** Let me see... Which is more awesome? Destroying dalek ship or high pitched monk. HIGH PITCHED MONK

The monk K'ampo Roche was a character in Planet of the Spiders who was a friend of The Doctor's. He, if I remember right was a renegade Time Lord with the ability to project himself. Earlier in the episode, he had an assistant called Cho je (I think that was the spelling) and when he regenerated, it turned out Cho je was a projection of his next incarnation, so he effectively regenerated into Cho je. Hence Sarah Jane's line about him looking like Cho je but actually being K'ampo Roche. It sure is confusing if you haven't seen or read about the rest of the episode but then again the scene was originally designed to be played with the rest of the footage in the episode so it would've been clearer for original viewers.

Well, it definitely worked

I don't think you can say Lis Sladen ever looked frumpy on the show, and certainly not to look at her in The Time Warrior.

4*

Nah, Pertwee is my favorite Doctor.

David tennant is my favourite

Agreed.

+Victor VonDoom Ace never met Tennant?

Sylvester McCoy!!!?! You can not be serious. He was a clown and a fool! Even Troughton left him for dead!

I loved ace

does he work for nintendo?

Scottish Maniac 2 he has the most beautiful speaking voice

Irish side of the family?

So, he's your Great Uncle.

How’s he doing

i am new to this show. was it common for one doctor to meet another doctor in the same episode? why was it done? why have a different doctor come in on another doctor's season? thanks

Farrah Falaux this was uncommon, so when it did happen it was always an exciting moment and normally done in celebration of an anniversary. watch the episodes "the 3 drs" "the 5 drs" "the 2 drs" or "the day of the dr" they're the main multi dr stories, as for why it was done. the dr's a time traveller, so on rare special occasions a situation arises in which he goes back in time and has his predecessors help him out

jhibbitt1 oh, very good, thank you very much

Elisabeth Kelley I honestly have an issue with Madam Vastra saying "Here we go again" at the start of Deep Breath. Because for 1, she's never seen any other Doctor before Matt Smith so how can she have added any weight to the words "Here we go again"? Second, we know the Doctor hasn't met Vastra before his 11th self because he is totally unfamiliar with this version of the Silurians before then and seems very surprised that they also look like that. So he can't have met Vastra before his 11th self or he'd know what to expect when he removed that Silurians mask. Three, since she's never actually been present for a regeneration her words still make less sense considering she's never see a Doctor change before. The reason the lines worked for the Brigadier was because first he was familiar with 2, then 2 regenerated into 3 and the Brig met 3 just after regeneration and though skeptical that this man was the Doctor accepted that it was the same man also having worked with the man through his post regeneration trauma. Then 3 becomes 4 and he says "Here we go again" meaning he has to get used to the Doctors new face, new personality but also likely have to cope with him through his regeneration trauma, again. That's why cutting and pasting the line, though cute, really makes no sense on any level at all. Plus my biggest gripe of all with it is that all it serves to do is to take away from the Brigadier saying the line where its in a place that makes much more sense and has much more impact.

TimeLordParadox That's Moffat for you.

hellshade2 Tom had some cracking stories during his run, my faves =The horror of Fang rock, Pyramids of Mars, Genesis of the Daleks, The robots of death, The face of evil, Image of the Fhendal, City of death, The talons of Weng Chiang and Planet of Evil.

Dean P.F yep i remember those too. great stuff. :)

The Hand of Fear

@@shathriel me too

Meh. The old ones look incredibly dated and the acting is fairly wooden, except for the Brigadier. At least in New Who the acting is generally stellar (Tennant, Smith and Capaldi nailed their versions). I just didn't feel all that convinced by this scene at all I'm sorry to say.

@@aclarkson9368 You mean you're used to hearts-on-my-sleeves exposition with Murray Gold blaring "Cry you bastards" in the background? Give me this over Tenant's blub-fest and speechifying ("I'm dying of radiation but it's gonna take me half the episode to do it, including giving my own eulogy")

@richardgregory3684 Used to? That's an odd expression. I've watched the series a couple of times and compared it with clips of the old stuff and honestly the increase in quality in the new version is pretty stark. Russell T Davies did an exceptional job of expressing the Doctor's loneliness and guilt over his involvement in the time war. I also quite enjoyed Smith and Capaldi's eras even though that was under Moffat. Also, you're largely referring to one particular moment as opposed to the entirety of the series, which I find strange. 10's fear of death/regeneration was built up over the course of an entire season, much like the plot elements of the previous seasons before it. So the operatic nature of his death was well-deserved imo. The Tennant era really was something special.

Les Christy ikr no other sci fi series is the same because the main hero doesn't always win
