Looking forward to your collab with Crispy Pro! Great work as always

I don't think that he wants to kill the doctor. I think he likes to make the doctor suffer.

I love the way John Hurt's Master and David Tennant's Doctor are written as the mirror images of each other

yourvideos are so serious and high quality and then your pinned comments are a meme.

shots fired

Oh wow. I just get it.

Literally one of the best scenes in Series 3

@@georgelinford5576 I never knew this was an unliked episode. Me and my family enjoyed it greatly when we watched when I was younger and I have rewatched it many times since and I’d say it’s possibly the greatest 2 parter (id probably say it comes 2nd to either the tennant or capaldi Davros 2 parter

@jimmy thompson yeah, I love Utopia and The Sound of Drums tbh but Last of the Time Lords isn't great in my opinion. And officially its actually a three-parter. My favourite multi-parter is the Series 10 finale, but I also love both of the Davros ones

They aren't? Both of them have regenerated in the double digits at this point

I love all of the three parter episodes

THAT SCENE SLAPSSSSS MY FAVORITE SCENE IN MY FAVORITE 2 PARTER!!!

Hm.

Season 2 is really disliked apparently and that’s due to rose. I never knew this apparently popular opinion till recently

@@berniet1215 i didn’t mind series 2. had some great moments like the Doctor facing the devil, Sarah Jane being reintroduced and of course the bitch fight of Canary Wharf

@@berniet1215 Yes, apparently because it went from a badass Rose that loved the doctor, to some mopey character who's scared for her life most the time.

@@berniet1215 Series 2 will always have a special place in my heart as it was the first I watched in full live. However I have to admit it's not the best season. For me the main issue it still has some of the growing pains of Series 1 in that it can be a bit overly campy and melodramatic, and the music can be a bit too squelchy and cheap sounding, and often doesn't quite match the tone of the scene. The problem is that Series 1 was mostly able to get away with these things given the lower budget, lower expectations, and overall more offbeat tone that welcomed these campy moments. Series 2 was a bit more shiny and serious, which made the overly campy bits stick out like sore thumbs. Also, the pacing of the season seemed very off. Placing the extremely campy and weird Love & Monsters and the quite dull Fear Her immediately before the finale robbed the season of pretty much all of the intensity and momentum built up from The Satan Pit. Imo The Idiot's Lantern should have been our palate cleanser between the two heavy-hitting two-parters, and then we just stash the filler episodes mid-season where everyone will hopefully forget about them. The Idiot's Lantern showed what The Doctor was willing to do if he lost Rose and really demonstrated their love for each other, which would have been really poignant occurring the episode before she left. Series 3 fixed pretty much all of the issues with Series 2. It was more restrained with the camp and made sure to earn it when it was used. Murray Gold really started to hit his stride and got a proper orchestra finally, and the directors/editors started to use Gold's excellent music a lot more effectively. I'm not shitting on 2 too much though. Girl in the Fireplace is a masterpiece, and the two parters were all thrilling, gloriously dark, and hard-hitting. Even if I don't really watch it that much, it's definitely a unique and interesting season. There have definitely been worse seasons.

I absolutely love Rose but I don't prefer either Martha or Rose. I have more of a connection to Rose but as companions both Martha and Rose are amazing

Psycho wife

If the series had a higher rating the laser screwdriver would look like something else

Yeah it's crazy. If you rewatch Love and Monsters, he's mentioned on the front page of a newspaper the Absorbalov is using to hide himself.

@@anealingfeeling5356 also there is a Vote Saxon poster in Torchwood s1e12, outside the town hall.

@@anealingfeeling5356 i must check this out

@@bigobloks1656 here you go! RTD is a genius. photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1983/431/1600/Dr_Who_Abzorbaloff_1.1.png

@@MrGreaves Also in SJA in S1 E3.

That’s what I saying

And if it’s any technological dispute against it that can be explained by the master literally owning the worldwide most used phone network and satellite array

P.s. we also know that Martha uses archangel network on her phone

I believe Saxon has a one liner saying the cabinet office was newly rebuilt

100%

yeah the utopia then last of the time lords btw in that episodes the two songs are jams i downloaded and listen to voodoo child and i cant decide a lot

@@livingdeadgirlss I only saw the I cant decide scene for the first time recently because it was removed from Netflix

I agree!

@Barbara Zhang yay

Totally agree, I think it's a bit of foreshadowing for the audience too. The truth of the Toclafane is right there if you're listening - just as the Master's hypnotic drumbeat was. Hidden in plain sight. It's a major theme of the episode, with the perception keys and Saxon's own rise to power. I like that even the final moments of the episode slyly invite you to look deeper and see what else has been hiding right under your nose.

Really there's so much "hidden in plain sight" in this episode, it's truly a joy. Yana hiding his true biology right to the Doctor's face. Saxon hiding his presence on Earth and subsequent rise to power with the Archangel network. Even little things like the bomb behind Martha's TV and the fact that Jack works for Torchwood now - the Doctor didn't have a clue about that, or that he was basically parked on top of their base in the last episode!

Yeh, I'm sure he did an interview and said it was a nod towards her.

CoE is one the best stories in the whole Doctor Who universe

Good to see our boy is a whovian

I think there's like 6 Doctor Who stories I would rank higher than CoE. It's just phenomenal.

If we are comparing all of RTD's work, years and years would like a word :)

You like doctor who too

When I was younger I had an old video-cassette tape recorder and I used to film myself acting as if I was the Doctor. Sonic screwdriver, TARDIS and everything. I was only about 5 or 6 years old at the time; do I regret it? Nope, absolutely not lmao

@@ark2364 Reminds me of how I used to make little stop motion videos with my Doctor Who figures because that was a thing you could do with the mid-2000s camera phone I had back then. They're lost to time now but they probably would have been in terrible quality anyway.

Satan: *Well I just wanna say I'm a huge fan*

My son would terrify his younger brother simply with the words "Vashda Narada" after series 4 for many years. Still makes him shiver at 17 😂

My fiance makes fun of me for being afraid of the weeping angels. I'm 31.

Couldn't agree more. Possibly my favourite Doctor Who story in the whole show.

Forever. Bum bum bumbum

Omg same

1234 1234 1234 1234 They never stop.

So weird to see people "researching" this, like some archaeological excavation! It's weird to think enough time has passed that people don't get the joke automatically anymore.

I didn't get it then!

@@lateralhistory True, I was a kid then so it feels like a different era!

Arguably he could have reasoned it wasn't safe considering Martha's apartment was rigged to explode. Since The Master knew about Torchwood Jack probably figured he knew where their base was. Also the base is in Cardiff, Wales. Is he going to take Martha and The Doctor all the way to another country when they have to act quickly to defeat The Master who is in London?

@@rikudoubapeck That's actually a really good point! Thanks dude!

Since the master was the prime minister he probably knew about Torchwood and all of its assets

It was the weird tiny old Doctor for me, something about the CGI and just the absurdity of the design.

The thing that gave me childhood trauma were the weeping angels, especially because I missed the part where it's explained that they send you back in time, so I just thought they killed you.

@@spongemaster the tiny old Doctor would have upset me as a kid but the damage had already been done haha

@@droidbot6284 funnily enough there was a line in the original script that said in the final act the Angels were in attack mode and wouldn’t bother eating them but would just kill them. I don’t know why it was taken out though.

Turn Left could be considered part of the S4 finale (the stars are going out, Rose's return, Donna being special, and it ends with a direct cliff hanger for The Stolen Earth). S7 can also be a three part finale if you take all of the 'X' Of The Doctor episodes as a trilogy. S9 is also a three parter since Face The Raven leads directly to the unique conditions of Heaven Sent. So I'd argue there are 5 three parters in New Who.

As much as it pains people to talk about series 12, I'd argue we can count the last 3 episodes of that as a 3 parter

Also Face the Raven, Heaven Sent and Hell Bent.

@@radioactiveowl95 You're right, though it took me a while to remember what episodes they were lol

Also Day of the Doctor, Name of the Doctor, Time of the Doctor

Memories!

Aw thank you!

I only wish there were _more_ emphasis on the Doctor and Co on the run, and the Jones's imprisoned. Highlight of the story, easily. Personally, I'd have had the whole of The Sound of Drums be that, and just streamline Last of the Time Lords. The Paradox Machine is pretty undeveloped so let's scrap the Valiant as the Master's base - have him plot and scheme from a decked-up, modified TARDIS instead! And, as I've said before, I'd utilise Utopia more on having The Sound of Drum's cliffhanger be that Earth is moved to the end of the time - the universe now barren of life; no one left to oppose the Master. Like in my Change of Hearts script, only now can he rule the universe since there's so few left to stand against him. And in this new empire, I'd have him convert Earth to Gallifrey 2: turning the Last of the Humans from Utopia into a new generation of Time Lords. Using the Vortex Manipulator, Martha ventures across the five planets (seriously, did Russell just forget she had that?), telling stories of the Doctor, healing people. Finally, it's revealed that Martha's been getting through to the Toclofabe, and they rewire her Vortex Manipulator to move Earth back in time, erasing themselves in the process. The Master is left, alone, on the last planet in the universe. No TARDIS, no earth, no Doctor. Still the emperor of the universe, but abandoned all the same. Of course the Earth was halfway to becoming Gallifrey 2, but Martha promises humanity will rebuild and reform; the perception filter spanning globally. Everyone knows the Earth is a wreck and work to fix it, but no one questions how it came to be so. The Doctor remodels the TARDIS to how it was, and Martha leaves, etc., etc.. It's next on my list of rewrites, but I can't get a bloody hold of the originals.

@@nightowl8477 I'm clearly just too attached to this story. While I like the idea of plannet swapping, moving in theory, I think bringing the terrible future to earth, this way he's inflicting his will not moving it to a point where he's in charge by default. Simm was already turning earth into gallifrey 2.0. Plus having them be the Toclofane and that they remain that way even at the end is probably the darkest thing in this franchise. And them being a nursery rhyme highlights the Simm Master's child like mind that he's regressed to Davis also suggested leaving the Master on his own and while that has poetic justice... Him dying in the Drs arms is the high point of this entire era for me

We also see a scene on the Valiant where her face is bruised, indicating The Master had been physically abusing her.

In a book I forget the name of the Anthony ainley master is the only master 9th and 11th doctors have met apparently. 10 also meets him as well

Jack and Martha talk about it in an episode.

As in the turbo grafix 16 video game?

@@HALchannel108 what?

The transformation scenes were great. The flabby prosthetics and the appearance of the unholy Dobby-Doctor thing, however . . .

Yeah i don't think the Master would ever intentionally kill the Doctor and the same for The Doctor treating the Master. I think he would just revel in his pain.

Harbo has to be saving that one for Defending the Despised, surely?

@@lateralhistory he still dies those within the same order as the person other episodes

Wonderful comment. I always feel it's reductive to compare Rose and Martha. Both of them are fully realized characters, with amazing qualities and some flaws, but the common element that makes both good companions is their bravery. And empathy. Both used their intelligence in different ways, while Martha had a more academic, skilful intelligence from her education, Rose had a kind of intuitive emotional intelligence. It's tiring to see people compare two companions who both did wonderful things in their own right.
