Legend glad to see people acknowledging the stuff from lockdown. Crazy to believe that was 4 years ago. Do you have a favourite piece of media from it?
I don't really have any particular favourite as I didn't really get into the whole Lockdown Who! thing at the time as my main concern was looking after my mum and dad who were both in full isolation so we were each others "support bubbles"
I did consider that as part of or as a seperate idea but even then it just felt a bit too "loose" of an explanation especially given that previously The Shalka Doctor has been established as a whole separate timeline, so it logically he'd never be a part of the same jigsaw in the first place. And even if The Toymaker did include other Doctor's from other universes it means there's ALOT more others that should have been seen too.
In a 2004 short trips anthology, McGann is going grey and believes he’ll soon regenerate. There’s then a gap before we pick up with Blood of the Daleks. It’s the perfect place to drop a bonus incarnation, Mid-Eighth Doctor so the Shalka Doctor succeeds McGann, but later following a degeneration so does Hurt and Eccleston.
If memory serves you're referring to the short story The End. in which The Eighth Doctor questions if his end is coming because his lack of memories at times but later finds out this isn't the case. Whilst you COULD potentially put an incarnation between McGann & Hurt, personally I just don't think it works because it's far too "convenient" just have The Doctor degenerate to retcon that timeline, it doesn't really serve any real purpose to the continuing narrative.
@@CaptainJimiPiethe degeneration would be to undo interference by the great intelligence stepping into his timeline, which is how this face came about.
The problem there though is by creating a whole new incarnation between War & McGann it would mean The Tenth Doctor would be the last incarnation, therefore never becoming The Eleventh and the events on Trenzalore and the creation of The Doctor's Timestream/grave would never happen. As such it means that The Great Intelligence would never have stepped in it in the first place so they would effectively erase their own future and thereby their past. You COULD argue that the Trenzalore events still happened but with The Tenth Doctor in the place of The Eleventh, but as I said in the video at that point you're having to create alot of non-canon/fan assumptions that there's no real basis for.
@@CaptainJimiPie there’s a lot of evidence within the show that the writers intended for Tom baker to be number 13 at the time. They invented the limit in The Deadly Assassin and bumped the numbers up in The Brain of Morbius. Professor Chronotis surpassed the limit in Shada. Suppose he, Romana and the Doctor found a way to reproduce the event. As he regenerates for the thirteenth time, the Doctor admits “it’s the end, but the moment has been prepared for”. He had spent all 12 regenerations, but was able to circumvent the limit with The Watcher (portrayed by Adrian Gibbs). Now, with the addition of Richard E Grant and why not let’s have another Tennant regeneration in Evolution of the Daleks atop the empire state building, Smith is again number 13 and out of lives. 1. William Hartnell (an unearthly child) 2. Patrick Troughton (the power of the daleks) 3. George Gallaccio (the brain of morbius) 4. Robert Holmes 5. Graeme Harper 6. Douglas Camfield 7. Philip Hinchcliffe 8. Christopher Baker 9. Robert Banks Stewart 10. Christopher Barry 11. Jo Martin (fugitive of the judoon) 12. Jon Pertwee (spearhead from space) 13. Tom Baker (robot) 1. Adrian Gibbs (logopolis) 2. Peter Davison (castrovalva) 3. Colin Baker (the twin dilemma) 4. Sylvester McCoy (time and the rani) 5. Paul McGann (doctor who) 6. Richard E. Grant (scream of the shalka) 7. Paul McGann (blood of the daleks) 8. John Hurt (the day of the doctor) 9. Christopher Eccleston (rose) 10. David Tennant (the christmas invasion) 11. David Tennant (evolution of the daleks) 12. David Tennant (journey’s end) 13. Matt Smith (the eleventh hour)
But this is exactly my point, I'm not saying that people can't have their own head canons, that's why my fan theories are after all, but by doing things like saying "suppose this happened" or "let's just add another regeneration/incarnation in here" it's not building on existing plot points, it's simply adding it random things which have no real basis JUST to make it work. The extra Evolution regeneration for example doesn't stand up because he wouldn't have stayed looking like The Tenth Doctor. The only reason he did that in Stolen Earth/Journey's End was because he had a receptacle in the form of his severed hand to channel off the excess energy and regenerate without changing. He didn't have anything like that in Evolution, so it doesn't stand up without inventing some kind of "deus ex machina"
To be fair Doctor Who has never had an established canon, alot of people say the TV show IS the only established canon but that in itself has often referenced much of the expanded media, meaning therefore that expanded media is also canon. Being an alternate timeline doesn't mean it's not canon overall, it's just not canon to that particular timeline. The show has delved into the concept of alternate timelines enough for them to generally be accepted within the shows narrative existence.
Ever since the Great Intelligence in the form of Dr Simeon entered the Doctor's timestream at the end of The Name of the Doctor, I've retroactively placed the Shalka Doctor as a G.I. incarnation. Since Rogue, I've slightly fudged the concept by believing that the regeneration between the War Doctor and the Ninth Doctor was interrupted by the Great Intelligence inserting itself in the Doctor's timeline. After all, we never see the completion of Hurt to Eccleston, and as the Grant version wasn't an actual regeneration, the regeneration limit still stands. I don't know if I've explained that very well, but I do think it makes sense.
The biggest problem with him coming between The War & Ninth Doctor's is that The Shalka Doctor exists in a universe where The Last Great Time War never took place, and coupling that with his comments about having had 8 previous incarnations it means The War Doctor also never existed in the Shalka timeline.
The crazy thing about this is that, according to a post on Instagram, Richard E. Grant actually dropped by the studio to have his face photographed for this sequence, meaning it isn't even an archive clip from some of his previous work.
He did indeed! So even if it proves this theory wrong I'm actually hoping he wasn't just there to take photos and his appearance somehow fits into the finale!
@@CaptainJimiPie My favorite cliffhanger would be one where Richard E. Grant and Rowan Atkinson suddenly appear from the Time Window (which is confirmed to appear in the finale) and set up the start of the Doctor Who multiverse.
That narrative has sort of already been explored as in the novel The Tomorrow Windows, The Eighth Doctor sees Eccleston, Atkinson & Grant incarnations as all possible futures for himself, and the show itself is no strange to the idea of alternate timelines and multiverses.
Sadly it's unlikely to happen for Atkinson's Doctor due to COFD being a charity sketch I believe it's applications in future media are EXTREMELY limited. I believe it's why it's never been released on DVD, although given that's it's been released for digital purchase before with proceeds going towards Comic Relief.
My personal theory is that he is a Pre Hartnel Doctor we know that there’s loads of them at least 16 by my count Richard E Grant is more than likely the 17th I am in including The Timeless Child Incarcerations, The Fugitive Doctor and The Morbius Doctors and Richard E Grant is in there somewhere
The main problem with him being Pre-Hartnell is presence of The Master as his companion, as going by previous narrative evidence The Master was unaware of The Doctor's existence before The First Doctor. Whilst you COULD explain this away as The TimeLord's/The Division also wiped The Master's memory too, it just feels too "flimsy" as an explanation, especially when you consider The Shalka Doctor's intended backstory too, and his own admission that by the time he has become The Shalka Doctor there have only been nine incarnations before him. The earliest realistically you COULD put The Shalka Doctor in the main timeline is Season 6B but even then you'd still be re-writing a whole timeline that never happened in order to reset the timeline to the TV Show one.
Is Shalka from a parallel universe or a parallel/alternative timeline? If if he's a possible future incarnation of the 8th Doctor from the main universe, I'd recon 9!Shalka is a parallel timeline. It's been shown in the show that the future is never set, always malleable to some extent. We've also seen the Doctor integrating some beings into themselves (The Watcher inside 4), as well as copies of themselves (the three 13th Doctors) so I am wondering if 9!Shalka could have, at some point after crossing with his own parallel timeline, could have, in a way, been absorbed or fused with another incarnation? Like, the Time (the being seen in Flux) or the universe feeling someone who didn't belong here, and tried to "loom" those two threads together in coherent thread. Or the Toymaker's shenanigans making a mess with the Doctor's different threads of a timeline, to make a new tapestry, maybe incoherent, but making him having now experienced and lived all his parallel selves lives (including 9!Curse, and, like, the Lenny Henry 7th Doctor or smt) Anyway, I really like your take on the subject, and absolutely loved seeing REG in those faces. Always a pleasure when DW does something a bit crazy and acknowledging some seemingly contradictory stories! :D
It's generally been accepted that The Shalka Doctor is from a whole separate timeline where he regenerated from The Eighth Doctor, with such an idea even being referenced in various media, most notably the novel The Tomorrow Windows, where The Eighth Doctor sees, various potential future incarnations including The "Main" Ninth Doctor he would later go onto become, alongside The "Curse" Ninth Doctor and The "Shalka" Ninth Doctor. Alot of the time many people explain these differing timelines away by what I call "retcon by Time War". Whilst I have used that explanation myself in the past, I've never been a huge fan of it, simply because it's often used to "ignore" difficult plot discrepancies with a cover all explanation of "Why? Because Time War". Ultimately it's one of these things that's likely never going to have a definitive explanation (although I hope I'm wrong) and is going to divide opinion on how it works, but I'm glad that people seem to be liking this theory!
Is it possible that when the Doctor let the Toymaker in to the universe the barriers from other reality were also weak so now unbound Doctor’s are seeping through and the scanner can’t recognise which is the Doctor from here as there are multiple Doctor’s in the universe at one time (or the Toymaker did say I made a puzzle of your past And it’s just a cosmic God messing around with the Doctor so he can’t tell what is real and what isn’t)
It's not impossible, and it wouldn't surprise me if that's the route they went down for an official explanation, but as I said that does leave alot more questions than it answers, for me at least. Plus what I like about this theory is that it does create a whole new potential story out of Paul's instagram post, giving it (albeit only a little) more credence than just another "fan-fiction".
Oooo, I've still got Shalka in The Main Doctor's continuity after doing a few admittedly doing a few gymnastics to throw him in there, but if we're going to go for the alternative universe stance, it's definitely the best pitch I've heard so far (Also a whole theory spanning off a "Withnail and I" reference is just perfect to me ☠)
I did try to fit him into the main universe line up but as I said whichever way I tried to fit it, it either didn't work or I had to make some pretty wild assumptions with very little basis to work it. The "alternate universe" stance is pretty much where he was to begin with too anyway so it stand to more reason that would still be the case, again atleast for me.
Technically (and debatably) he's not a separate incarnation of The Doctor, instead being an entirely separate entity. Therefore if it was only showing sepecific incarnations of The Doctor it would make sense for him not to be there. That being said however, it is a debated point and personally I think it would have made more sense to include The Valeyard instead of The Shalka Doctor, as at the very least they are historically part of the same universe, not to mention it would have been a lovely tribute to the late great Michael Jayston.
Like this theory, and I love how they’ve done this, this kind of crazy canon bending stuff is the lifeblood of fans! Imagine if they’d included the Cushing Doctor too! The Shalka Doctor may not have been part of the Doctor’s life until the bi generation…the retcon affecting the Eighth’s regeneration into the War Doctor as it took place during the Time War, creating not only a renewed Eight and a war Doctor but a totally separate independent incarnation - who lived and died and rejoined the timeline. This would mean the Shalka Doctor can be part of the main universe. And the fact that REG specially sat for the photos means there could be more on this. Like the Morbius Doctors we may not get an explanation for 40 years!
The Cushing Doctor very much faces the same problems as The Shalka Doctor in that he's almost impossible to fit in without rewriting established canon and/or creating huge fan assumptions to make it work. Personally I've always preferred Cushing's own theory that he's a future incarnation made to relive his early adventures by The Toymaker. And as I say the problem with the bi-generation and event Time War retconning is that it's just too "loose" as an explanation because essentially it's "why did this happen...because Time War". I certainly do hope there is more to this though as I'm always happy for an fan theory to be proved wrong if it means we get a proper explanation, and I certainly hope this may play into the final two episode of Series 14 some how!
lets not forget the 11th "regenerated" outside the tardis and blew up the massive dalek ship with the regeneration energy, it made him look young again but if that had happened in the tardis..im sure the show would be 100% set on trenzalore.
I did consider that but ultimately I didn't include that simply because it didn't happen inside the TARDIS and there's no really any point including a "what if"
I can believe that of 10, perhaps combined with the radiation he absorbed, however I wouldn't say that of 12 as his whole final speech, and in fact final words, are about letting go of being The Doctor, and given that he's just also convinced his past self to do that very same thing I think it would rather ruin the point of the episode if it turned out he was just lying.
Yes, but by the end of that episode he's clearly let go of that and his time as The Doctor, his final words are literally "Doctor, I let you go". So it wouldn't really make sense for all of his pent up anger and aggression from earlier to still be in him, plus if that were the case then The First Doctor would have experienced the same thing which we know he didn't.
@CaptainJimiPie I don't mean in a metaphorical sense, I mean that by delaying his regeneration, there's more energy building up to release, hence the more explosive regeneration
Already knew the answer to this one when I saw the thumbnail! I guess it could be said it "used" to be true for the new series (2005 - now), but that has actually changed with 13's regeneration and 14's bi-generation. Both regenerations happen outside the TARDIS which leads to the TARDIS not receiving any damage! ( Honestly I do hope 15's regeneration in the future will be inside the TARDIS because I can imagine how good the lighting and damage effects could look for it! *Especially with how the crashing sequence in that one Christmas special looked!* )
Thing is even if you just go by the TARDIS "crash landing" it still doesn't add up. At best it's only vaguely true, as debatably some of the "crashes" like Xmas Invasion or Deep Breath could be said to be more "bumpy landing" and technically in TUAT/WWFTE it didn't even crash, it dematerialised mid-air. I think it's one of those ideas that's become a bit of a Mandela effect where younger viewers who were seeing Xmas Invasion as their first regeneration remember it being alot more action packed than it was.
*_IMPORTANT NOTE : Please read before commenting_* This is entirely unrelated to the above video, but that's rather the point. I'm half-expecting the comments on this to be asking about my thoughts/theories on THAT face appearing in Rogue. PLEASE do not comment asking me about that, or about how I need to change/update previous theories. I will give my thoughts/theories on that when I have come up with something.
*_IMPORTANT NOTE : Please read before commenting_* Yes I am well aware of the recent developments regarding the canonicity of The Shalka Doctor. I have recently created a new fan theories video on my thoughts on how this all now works : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EOEI2Lod49I.html Please do not comment corrections or questions like I'm wrong, or misinformed with this video. It was made 3 YEARS AGO, and the information that set out in the video was up to date at the time it was made, but things change.
Love the chat as always jimi I just have a quick question do you have a paint/colour you can reccomend for touching up a figures neck my tenth doctor with spikey hair and glasses in blue suit was very stiff and when I moved the head the neck paint rubbed off if you could reccomend any paints to touch it up would be highly appreciated hope you have a great day
Unfortunately I don't tend to use specific tones/colours, espically when it comes to something like skin tones. I usually just mix up colours until I get something close enough
The Master confirmed the Doctor's mixed heritage when he called up the bio-data stored in the Cloister Room. There was no reason for the Doctor to falsify the records.
The Master only confirmed what the records showed him, which included The Doctor's appearance in his latest incarnation. However given that The Eighth Doctor hadn't entered the TARDIS at that point, plus the fact that in the very next scene The Master is looking at Grace THROUGH The Doctor's eyes suggests that the "records" he is looking at are "remotely updated". Which means The Doctor didn't falsify the records, because it was showing what he looked like at the time, however it's also reasonable to assume that even IF The Doctor himself hadn't falsified the recorded then the TARDIS would have done what she could to help further his plan, especially given she would want The Doctor to know The Master had gained entry to the TARDIS and opened the eye of harmony.
If you mean the video series then it's still on-going, but these Brief History videos tend to take some of the longest to prepare/edit so I tend up do new ones when I have the time
Well as I said, there will be more in future, they just take quite a bit of time to mark compared to my other videos, which themselves take longer these days due to my own personal commitments
welol neat stuff got get some 3D stuff me as 4ok player alwhay like do a dalek army fore that game but its hard find minis in that scall to go in the game but need stuf Q"? did paint your self ? just has ask if yes great stuff if nope well who did did good job to nest vid
Wow really nice custom an improvement over your other dalek prime customs On the law part of this figure I don’t think nemesis takes place after emperor of the daleks because when the daleks get abslom daak they say he was killed when he destroyed the death wheel so how do they know about that if that takes place in the future?
*_IMPORTANT NOTE : Please read before commenting_* Please stop commenting that the "broken wire" is in fact the aerial lead. I am well aware of this now but wasn't when I made the video and can't go back and correct it now
I have to respectfully disagree. The price is very fair considering what the set contains. We've got a figure people wanted to released and two brand new figures we've never had before. And if you had included three Daleks then that would have driven the price up much higher!
Wow, how do you find this stuff? I frequently look up 'Doctor Who' on eBay but never see any prototypes (except the bright coloured plastic versions that cost £100) and then hear about them months later like the articulated 10th lol.
To be honest it's partly luck but mostly it's just watching/searching and waiting. In all my time collecting I've spent years looking for things at the right price, missing out on them or passing them up, either willingly or not due to current circumstances. But in doing that I've also made my fair share of contacts who can help me look or let me know when they find/have something that might interest me. The simple truth is that it really just comes down to time, patience and saving money, which I think is where a lot of people lose interest because of the effort that takes, but if you really want something that much then it means taking time to put the work in.
I’m really sorry to nitpick but the Dalek that leads this Dalek squadron is a section leader not a supreme 😅. Sorry to go full nerd mode. It is never referred to as a supreme in the story and even takes orders from other Daleks in the story. The supreme Dalek is only mentioned in this story but never featured. Anyway great custom showcase and it’s nice that we have gotten more variations of the props used in destiny. Since there are so many different variations xc
@@CaptainJimiPie I know you did. I’m just saying it’s official rank is the section leader, making it lower than a supreme and even lower than a Dalek Commander. A section leader like the one on this story leads a small squadron of Daleks taking orders from the Commander and supreme. I didn’t mean to cause offence or any hostility I was just pointing it out as a fellow passionate nerd 😅. Xx
