I think David still has the most. He had three permanent companions, Rose, Martha and Donna. Several recurring companions: Captain Jack, Mickey and Sarah Jane Smith. And a number of one-off companions: Astrid Peth, Jackson Lake, Lady Christina, Adelaide Brook and the imitable Wilfred Mott, so I make that 11. Add into the account Jackie Tyler and those two characters in the animated episode Dreamland and you have a fairly sizeable number there.

@carolinemerk9814 Ай бұрын

@@DoctorVision @user-tx9tg2lu7c Yeah, I guess it depends on who you classify as a companion. I mostly base it on "indefinite TARDIS crew member" and "in multiple episodes," so I only count the main three and Mickey as Tennant companions, though there's definitely a case to be made for the one-offs and outliers. Even when you exclude Sara Kingdom, the First Doctor era had nine characters written to be indefinite companions, so Hartnell takes the cake for me. No matter which way you look at it, though, David WAS a bit of a man about town.

Some actors who play the Doctor were big fans of the show (Tennant, Capaldi etc). Some weren't that familiar (Smith, Eccleston etc.). What I love about Gatwa is how, despite the show being on his radar growing up, he clearly wasn't a massive Whovian, but… he is throwing himself 110% into the universe. That's the sign of a dedicated actor.

@flightlesslord2688 Ай бұрын

@Scripture-Man Ай бұрын

No, Ncuti is not a fan. He's part of the new activist movement (including RTD) that hates British past, hates white people, and hates the history of the Doctor - those like Chibnall and Whittaker who desperately wanted to change Who history so that the Doctor was originally a black woman. Ncuti is a racist who complains about all the "white mediocrity" (in a white country) and claims the TV industry is racist against black people, despite there being a HUGE racist over-representation of black people in the media now. Then there's the aggressive agenda to use the show to push intolerant ideologies upon the public, with Ncuti talking about the Doctor bringing "queer energy" to the show and wanting to defeat monsters by twerking. No, he's not a fan, he's a vandal.

We saw the wardrobe closet when Tennant was choosing his outfit the first time, and it appears to be an infinite spiral. Since we know the TARDIS can make anything at will, my theory is worn or dirty outfits get thrown down the spiral to get recycled, and a new copy is produced to replace it. This also explains how the pockets can be bigger on the inside - the copies use Time Lord Technology even if the original was ordinary clothing like Matt Smith's or Jodie Whittaker's when they selected them.

The 50th anniversary in 2013 brought us the War Doctor (first official Doctor Who with a beard - after the cinematic version played by Peter Cushing - in colour too, in the 60s) AND a rerun of the 10th Doctor + introduction of the eyebrows of 12th!!! Then there is the Fugitive Doctor (... a darker Version of River Song - very, very cool) and the burn down regeneration from 13th to 14th took place in October 2022 - after some muddeling about a "Master Doctor" due to forced regeneration, body snatching and redoing that process. 3 uncounted great actors from the official show and 5 more in the Steven Moffat skit from 1999: "Curse of Fatal Death" with lots and lots of the first ever seen bronze Dalecs

Very cool to see this, the show's getting a lot of new fans and the backcatalogue is very daunting, if the Doctor himself tells you it though, suddenly it's all the same show.

Tom Baker was MY Doctor - my first experience watching Doctor Who late at night in Seattle from a Canadian station. He is still my ideal of what the Doctor should be.

@wishuponadream91 Ай бұрын

Started with Nine during Eleven’s era. There’s a great many episodes of the classic era I’ll have to watch eventually, so loved this detailed recap! No SARAH JANE mention? Mickey and Harkness are both missing, BUT Rory wasn’t forgotten as he often is… And someone else is missing from the revival era, too, which I don’t take any issue with, since I found the character grating.

River wasn't a companion, but rather his wife, conceived in the Tardis, and able to regenerate. In series terms she was a recurring character, while companions stayed around for a season or more. Jack Harkness was another recurring character who ended up with a spinoff series.

He wasn't the only Doctor to return for that episode. Its finale included 13 Doctors -- all the numbered ones to date (including Peter Capaldi who wouldn't officially take over till the next episode) plus John Hurt's War Doctor, though some of them appeared only in archival footage. There was even a different uncredited cameo by Tom Baker, who is special to some Americans as his Fourth Doctor was apparently the first to air here on PBS in the 1970's.

It’s the same song - the ‘outlander theme song’ is a real old Scottish song about the Jacobite Rebellions called the “Skye boat song” which funnily enough is sung by Ncuti’s Doctor in the most recent episode!

Ncuti: you are a typical British kid! All the British kids I have met over the years are all the same- they love Number 3- Jon Pertwee! Now I have seen his episodes and they are quite good! As an American who grew up in the ‘70’s- Number 4- Tom Baker- gets my vote! And all the American folks who grew up about the same time as me who are Whovians are the same way! Numbers 10/14 and 11- David Tennant and Matt Smith, respectively- both are very good and have huge followings! I would like to see more of Number 8- Paul McGann!

@Lopez03Eduardo. Ай бұрын

Forgot to mention Tom Baker also played Curator making him first actor to play two different incarnations in Doctor Who history. Paul McGann 8th Doctor finally got proper regeneration on screen years later in Night of the Doctor mini sode and came back for Power of the Doctor. Also he played War Doctor technically since McGann was stand in and young John Hurt CGI put on McGann face. No honorable mentions for John Hurt War Doctor and Jo Martin Fugitive Doctor while yes both never got full series they still are the Doctor both incarnation still count as regeneration. It gets more wibbly wobbly timey wimey explaining this to new Whoivans who are getting into series. Tenant is not just 10th and 14th he is also 11th, and 3rd/15th Doctor going by what 11th Doctor said in Time of the Doctor he said Ten kept the same face he had vanity issues which Clara correctly states 11th Doctor is the actually 12th and he also corrects by stating captain grumpy (War Doctor) still counts as a regeneration despite not calling himself the Doctor. As for what i do mean he's also the 15th and 3rd Doctor well same episode Time of the Doctor Time the Time Lords gave the Doctor new regeneration cycle officially 12th is actually 13th and 1st Doctor new the cycle. 13th is both 14th and 2nd Doctor, 14th Doctor is 15th Doctor and 3rd Doctor, and 15th is actually 16th and 4th Doctor in this new regeneration cycle we will have to wait for the 23rd Doctor who would be the 12th Doctor in the second cycle but of course we will have to wait the long way around to see this happen and officially see the Doctor become the Curator by regenerated into an old favorite face of the Fourth Doctor.

@richellebrittain2127 Ай бұрын

I don't think the Curator was ever actually named as a Doctor, though Tom Baker did play him. Ncuti did say "all the main Doctors" so he was obviously limiting it to the officially numbered Doctors.
