The fact that the very first screwdriver was lost down a drain hole and they just said "Screw it, use the jacket whistle end piece." honestly feels like something the Doctor would do in the show.

What a throughly enjoyable and informative video. I consider myself to be decently knowledgeable about both the old and the new show, but I had no idea about the life jacket whistle or the thunderbirds prop. Amazing stuff!

Where were these kinds of demonstrations when I used to go to the center as a kid.

I heard that the Sonic used in Tennants time was actually the toy because the original prop was unreliable.

I know that they used the toy of the 11th doctor’s sonic as a stunt prop in the rings of ahkaten

@ScarecrowProps 6 ай бұрын

They had stunt versions made using the prototype toy, but there was never a point where the toy was used as the hero prop in the early seasons. The 9th CO toy does appear briefly in the sonic pen pot in series 10 tho. In Matt Smith and Capaldi’s eras they did use the toy for some scenes, cutting to the hero metal version for close ups. The main reason being the released 9/10 toy screwdriver is oversized, so you can’t really get away with seamlessly swapping them out as it’s noticeable.

@@lukew636 if you look again, as I said, the 9th Doctor CO toy sonic can be seen on the right side of the pot in between a “sixteen/12” 4th sonic replica, and a CO 4th sonic toy. You are correct however that there is a proper MFX 10th Doctor replica on the other side of the CO 4th toy, in the middle of the pot next to the CO 3rd sonic toy.
