He doesn't want to be ginger. He pretends. Imagine if he'd said, "Still not black, oh no." then later admitted that he chooses his form. Don't make him fucking ask to be ginger unless you're willing to actually lose all those viewers to, "Ewww!!! He's so gross now!" And you don't gain extra viewers back who are uncomfortable that they hate gingers because it's actually fine to hate gingers.
Fully agree. Reflecting back to other bits of the same franchise does not a crossover make. The Who/TNG crossover would make a good episode on either franchise.
Agreed. Doctor Who/Torchwood, yes, you could even count the episodes of DW where it was just Jack, even if the other TW characters didn't get a mention.
No, but it's definitely a crossover when Captain Picard meets Dr. Who. That's just wrong, they're far too incompatible. That's about as ridiculous as a dbz star trek crossover.
I remember seeing a quote from Georgia Moffet, stating at one point, she went to school with one of the daughters of Colin Baker, so they both just assumed that everyone's dad used to be the Doctor. Also, if you want to see something truly heartbreaking (both of them?), try to find the video of Georgia asking her son (later to be adopted by David), asking him who his favourite Doctors were. David made the list, of course, as did Matt. Georgia asked him about Granddad, and his response was an ego-destroying, "Nah!"
@@sigmabat Well the only context we have from the video is of Georgia and Ty chatting quietly at home, or so it appears. Whether Granddad had any input is unknown, so all I can do is judge what I see. If he did have that influence, it's a brilliant piece of self-deprecating humour.
Man I still haven't seen anyone talking about that one Star Trek: Enterprise episode where the engineer guy and someone else open the hatch to a busted up ship, look in and say "it's bigger in the inside"
I was in the cinema and some kid said (with genuine awe in its voice) "It's Dumbledore!" Unfortunately the audience found it funny and didn't imprison the child in a mirror, or peg it out in the middle of a field for eternity in a state of suspended scarecrowism. Shame really.
@@johnderat2652 can't seem to find the interview now. There was a radio times article where he was pretty definitive about drawing a line under his time playing the Doctor, particularly multi-Doctor stories. A shame because I'd love to see the return of Nardole, and an episode featuring a combination of the Eyebrows and the Ears would be amazing!
I watched the day of the Doctor as you did, but my theater was next to university of Pennsylvania campus in Philadelphia. My experience when Capaldi showed up was the same. But the moment that sent chills down my spine and blood rushing to my face was when I heard “You know, I really think you might.” My sister and I, who had been watching since 1974, when it was broadcast on our public broadcasting system in the 30 minute weekly installments, looked at each other and said “it’s the Doctor!” Tom is truly THE Doctor, the definite article.
I want not a crossover so to speak but more a meta episode where all of the incarnations of the Doctor come together (including Jodie’s) and confront Chibnall and be like how could you do this to us kinda thing
Would be more fitting to have McGann, Eccleston, Tennant, Smith, Capaldi, and Whitaker show up in "the real world" and proofread one of his scripts and just tell him it's fucking trash, and he needs to go back to school to learn how to write something that isn't shit.
@@leebryant1973 I really liked Christopher's portrait of the Doctor, who believes he's just destroyed his entire race to defeat the Daleks. That 'madness' he puts into the character comes through visually as well as in his actions & speach.
I really hope there will be a big crossover again soon. Seeing as Eccleston is finally coming back as the Doctor, it would be perfect to do a modern equivalent of the Five Doctors in the New Who Era.
"Day of the Doctor" is the absolute BEST Doctor Who episode ever!!! I remember when it first time in the States, I remember cheering loud as shit every time a Doctor would pop up. When the War Doctor appears on the screen, I yelled in excitement until my head exploded. Best nerdgasm ever. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
I wish I could agree. I was so disappointed in it. Yeah, it had some cool elements, but undoing the mythos the new series had built up until that point was a huge mistake.
Best Crossover Ever. Always been a John Hurt fan, and never expected tho secretly hoped he could be the Doctor. That he played the uber-badass version of the Doctor was just icing. But seeing my fave Doctor from childhood, mr Baker, was beyond good. Never thought i’d get misty-eyed over Dr Who... (yeah, Cap finally getting the hammer was frikkin awesome!!!)
10:- "Still not ginger?" 13:- "Still not ginger." 😂😂😂 I doubt it'll ever happen but I truly hope we get a Ginger Doctor someday so he or she can just laugh and say 'Finally!' A part of me is hoping Bonnie Wright to pick up the TARDIS key someday. 💜
@@CaptainJack2048 ah come on! Honourable mention? Screw that, dump dimensions in time, it was terrible badly written Crap with a plot (and I'm using that word very loosely) that made no sense.
I want to see Doctor who crossover with Red Dwarf. It would be hillarious to have the Doctor deal with a senile computer, egotistical hologram, a mechanoid with briliant character flaws, a slob of a human being, and a cat.
I absolutely love stolen earth/the journey's end. It's epic. All 10th companions are there to fight together, and then they all leave one by one. Beautifully sad.
There’s something magnificent about Ten and Thirteen facing each other with utmost solemnity, commiserating over the fact that they’re still. Not. Ginger.
First and second Doctors pictures used in Dimensions in Time .... No. They were actual models made of Hartnell & Troughtons heads. Get your facts right, the Distari.. He was just called Distari. Also it was a holographic image of the second Dr being tortured, not real.
This is what I love about the board game "Time of the Daleks" All of the players get to play as an incarnation of the doctor, all working together. The Daleks have basically scrambled the Doctor's time stream so Doctors can have companions and equipment from other versions of themselves as well as taking on enemies from their past or future. There is regeneration built into the game so you might start off as the 3rd doctor, but could end the game as the 9th if enough regenerations happen. But it's this mega crossover feel to the game that I really love. When you play it, it feels like it could be a proper episode and seems to fit really well into the mythos, almost like it should be canon.
Watched The Day Of The Doctor with my teen daughters, I in my late forties, and having been a fan since my childhood in the eighties. My daughters are whovians for life now.
I was genuinely surprised with how much I liked The Three Doctors. I had a feeling I would enjoy it very much, but I didn't expect to love it and have it be my favorite Third Doctor story. It builds upon the lore of Gallifrey, while also having a lot of great chemistry between 2 and 3, as well as 1 when he shows up. It's a great story, and William Hartnell's final line as The Doctor brought a tear to my eye. Even though it's probably not my favorite classic story, it did leave a major impact on me, even though I only watched it a couple months ago. Certainly beats the hell out of The Day of the Doctor...
Love the Day of the Doctor. Seeing three of my fav incarnations of the Doctor 10/11 working together while they slowly become less self conscious about each other to save the world from Zygons, to ending the Time War, and John Hurt as a incarnation of the Doctor. Oh boy! Many things about that special was terrific!! Especially the scene with every single doctor staring out into the stars and Gallifrey. “Home... the long way round”
There are so many good Big Finish crossover/multi-Doctor stories worth checking out. The Sirens Of Time, The Four Doctors, The Light At The End, The Legacy Of Time, Out Of Time, Cold Fusion... All great.
Say what you want about Moffat as a writer. But he absolutely killed it with the 50th special. Very few Who stories left me energized and joyous like that did. Amazing stuff.
I really enjoyed the story during his time as show runner. Yeah there were multi episode story arcs before he ran the show, but he engineered a multi season story arc all while dropping clues that were utterly confusing that absolutely end up paying off eventually. Also he was the show runner during the introduction of my two favorite monsters. The weeping angels and the silence. Psychologically terrifying.
Artist Rich Morris created a webcomic called "The Ten Doctors" that featured all ten and various companions, set just after "Doomsday". Rose wasn't happy with Nine when she met Susan and learned he had a granddaughter, and the earlier Doctors were concerned about Nine's relationship with Rose and wondered if he was having a midlife crisis.
I’m hoping in the 60th we get Ecelston, Tennant, Smith, Capaldi and Whittaker. Something like that at least I’d rlly love Smith and Ecelston to come back.
Do ya one better Ecelston, Tennant, Smith, Capaldi, Whittaker and McGann cause I want at least one proper 8th Doctor special... know it will never happen but here's to hope
I've noticed how The Doctor's attitudes about guns change from writer to writer. I seem to remember The Fourth Doctor carrying and using a Dalek gun in "Genesis of the Daleks"....
@@drdarkeny K-9 was always zapping people. And let us not forget the best gun-carrying companion ever Brigadier General ‘five rounds rapid’ Lethbridge-Stewart
@@ladyjaysindeore1113 - what was it Davros said to The Doctor? "You don't even carry a gun -- you just manipulate others into killing for you!" Depending on which Doctor we're talking about, there may be a grain of truth in that. No Doctor's ever been a OOH-RAH! charging the corridors laying down suppressing fire type, but some Doctors are more overtly pacifist than others.
No Big Finish? Legacy of Time, Out Of Time, The Day of the Master (it’s a multi Master Story that’s just as good the Doctor Falls), Zagreus (if that counts, even though it’s meant to 40th anniversary and only kinda features the Doctor as the Doctor for a few minutes) and of course Big Finish’s first ever story The Sirens of Time (where 5,6 and 7 all joined forces). You also have the Time Victorious story happening at the moment and the End Of The Beginning coming out in March. Tbf Big finish does do crossovers a lot, so they could probably have their own list.
Big Finish isn't canon, though, is it? It's more like those STAR TREK and STAR WARS Extended Universe novels, which give the writers the freedom to take the characters in places the show won't or can't.
@@drdarkeny The thing is, it isn't like Star Wars or Star Trek at all. Those shows have clearly defined ideas of what counts as 'canon'. However, the BBC doesn't have a policy towards what counts as 'canon' or not. Big Finish is as canon as you want it to be. The same goes for almost all Who media ever made. Oh, and Big Finish events got referenced onscreen
@@jetshot2218 - well, then as you say, it's either canon or not depending on if the show acknowledges it. I mean, they even referenced that WTF? Fox TV-Movie starring Paul McGann -- if only to retcon the idea of The Doctor as half-human out of existence! Yes, I know -- Paul McGann's always been considered The Eighth Doctor even though there's only the movie and ancillary media about him.
Also, virtually every Big Finish story (and most of the spinoff novels, comics and short stories also) is specifically set inbetween particular episodes of the TV show. Generally the audio plays go out of their way not to contradict or rewrite stuff from the TV show canon. Unless they do. Although - Time travel. So anything goes, really.
Am I the only one who, when they hear "crossover", thinks "outside the series"? Like Doctor Who on the Enterprise fits, but one Doctor meeting up with various other incarnations of the character is "just another episode" (as awesome as they are). So out of that list, with that definition, less than half fit. Am I wrong?
@@thiagodeandrade7081 I would say yes, because that's "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" interacting with "Star Trek", two distinct series in the franchise. Compare to when Matt Smith interacts with David Tennant - both playing the same character in the same series. An argument can be made if it involves characters from both the old series (ending in 1989) and the new series (starting in 2005), such as Tom Baker as the Curator at the museum where Matt Smith takes Vincent Van Gogh as a crossover. However, episodes like The Three Doctors (from 1972, featuring Hartnell, Troughton, and Pertwee) I would say no. For your Star Trek comparison, I think the best analogy would be something like characters that you only ever see in Torchrwood or Sarah Jane Adventures mixing with the other show or with Doctor Who-specific characters.
Very well made, I can think of 2 crossovers you missed, at least I think they could be classed as crossovers. The 1st is where Rowan Atkinson & the actor who played the governor in the pirates of the caribbean movies did a comedy sketch where they kept going further back in their timeline to out fox the other, anyone remember that ?, it was a crack up. The other one was like a mockumentary where a couple of the actors who played 2 of the Dr's, can't remember which ones, weren't invited to the 50'th anniversary special & spent all the show trying to sneak onto the set at the BBC, once again, very funny.
Depending on the year it came out it would be a Marvel villain as Hasbro lost the rights to use Deaths Head in Transformers media to Marvel which would make it just a Marvel crossover
@@ThePrimeinator Actually the creators of Death's Head made a side-story short of just him so they could keep control of the character. Hasbro was not the nicest company to creators back then.
I'm shocked the mother of all crossovers Lego Dimensions didn't make the cut. Batman, Gandolf and Wyldstyle meet the 12th Doctor, Clara and K9. I mean how can you miss it?
I can't imagine that the "meta-doctor" would really be content to settle down and live the rest of his life with Rose. He has all of the doctors memories and experiences up to that point and an intelligence quotient that is probably off the scale. He'd get bored in less than a week. I know I would.
But he knows he only has one life, which is why he can finally accept staying with Rose because he won't regenerate. He know he could either die first, or if she does he won't be far behind her. I would imagine that, like Mickey and Martha, he and Rose would continue to have adventures together -- unless he ends up teaching Temporal Physics at Oxford or picking up his old job as UNIT's Science Advisor....
I have a fan fiction I'm working on where he finds a TARDIS, slightly different from his, uses it to go back about 50 years and becomes the non-canon Peter Cushing Doctor.
@@ejay1118 - Is Rose still alive? Are they still together? You know Donna's Grandpa knew Peter Cushing's Doctor -- When Bernard Cribbins was young, he played a clueless Police Constable Tom Campbell, who ends up being that Doctor Who's Companion in DALEKS' INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D..
Im glad you mentioned the Assimilation2 written for IDW by an old friend Derik Chester and DC Fontana (who colab'd on Star Trek Legacy's Story) its a good comic especially when you see "KLINGON CYBERMEN!"
If you want a really good nine-twelve crossover I recommend "exhausted supplies". It's a fanmade audio drama available for free on youtube and it's brilliant. The Guy who does the ninth Doctor's voice sounds so similar to Eccleston it's amazing.
#9 _The Stolen Earth_ and _Journey’s End_ #6 _Dimensions in Time_ Did... you just say... *_Dimensions in Time_* is a better crossover episode than _The Stolen Earth_ and _Journey’s End?_ I mean, it’s a perfectly valid opinion, but it just came as quite a surprise to me.
Considering how many former Doctors, companions, relatives of former Doctors, etc., that appeared on this, it should have gotten at least an honorable mention. The meta tie-in with the Hobbit was brilliant too. Not only because of McCoy, but McKellen, who voiced the Great Intelligence.
A while back I remember reading a webcomic featuring all the Doctors up to Smith in an original story that wandered all over time. The writer captured the essense and style of each Doctor so well, I could hear their voices as I read it. I'll have to track that down again.
A massive cheer at a cinema style event, such as seeing Capaldi's first appearance in Day of the Doctor, comparing it to that of Endgame. Not sure if you're a WWE fan, Rich, but you need to go to a pub viewing of the Royal Rumble. The surprise entrants and returns REALLY get loud!
@@greggg4011 hated Capaldi as the Doctor until the last 3 maybe 4 shows. Then as said right at the beginning of the video as soon as I warmed up to him, he gets killed off. Still haven’t warmed up to Jodi as the Doc, l’m just glad knowing they could have done worse.
@@csickpuppy They didn't kill him off he left... And that's the kind of leaving like John Pertwey who was depressed because of the death of Roger Delgado ....noooo...he said he wanted to leave at the top and his refused to come back.
Best moment in the crossovers had to be when Baker appeared. Being that it was shown, World Wide, in unison, you know, at that moment, Millions, if not BILLIONS of people, throughout the world thought or shouted "MY DOCTOR!" at the same time. A meta callback of sorts to a previous episode where the world brought back the Doctor and helped him defeat The Master.
Day of the Doctor is the best ever! I watched it at the cinema in Mexico and oh man, when Capaldi’s eyes appeared everyone started screaming. It was fantastic! Absolutely fantastic!
50th Anniversary was AWESOME. Tom Baker coming to screen blew my mind. 4 of the best doctors in history (including hart) at the end, I would have loved to have seen a sub franchise of the doctor with Hart. “War Doctor”? “Time War”? Yes please.
Some other good crossovers is the new Big Finish audio series Out of Time which has the 10th Doctor meeting previous incarnations each with their own individual story. The first one is with the 4th Doctor facing the Daleks, the second is with the 5th Doctor (again...they acknowledge the events of "Time Crash") facing the Cybermen and the third one which is yet to be released is with 6th facing the Weeping Angels (I definitely looking forward to that). Big Finish also has a number other audios that feature crossovers between classic Doctors in their catalogue to enjoy as well.
Colin Baker wasn't really bad, but that outfit was the second worst outfit in the series (the worst would be the Fake Doctor, aka the 13th Doctor). And Chinballs was able to destroy The Doctor even when The Master and all the other villains never could.
@@SenileOtaku and yet dr who persists so i would disagree, and the war doctor’s outfit was amazing how the fuck can you compare his to colin bakers? Are you insane?
Also, the "Doctor's Daughter" used to think when she was a kid that every kid was child of the Doctor because she was friends with a girl on her school who was also a Doctor's daughter, I think she was the 4th's daughter? that last part I don't remember exactly
One that I thinks works is “The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot”. Produced for the 50th anniversary and written by Peter Davison, it’s the king of meta. If you’ve never seen it, do so. It’s not a proper episode, it’s a behind the scenes stuff with Davison, CBaker, McCoy, & McGann griping about not being in the 50th anniversary special. It’s glorious.
Would love to see the crossover with ALL surviving Doctors and companions. As for their real life ages and conditions, they can be be from realities where they hadn't needed to regenerate in their multiverse.
I like the crossovers that take the Doctor from Doctor Who, and combine it with the TARDIS from Doctor Who. Some of those are incredible. I think that fits the definition of crossover laid down in this video.
Anyone else wish to chime in with their cinema experiences that had the most impact on them? Mine was watching The Return of the King, the third Lord of the Rings movie. I had never before seen a whole cinema get so involved in the plot of a movie. The scene where Eowyn cut the head off the fell beast saw rapturous applause, but the part when she killed the Witch King was off the scale. That moment the Witch King threatens her by telling her no man can kill him and she responds by pulling her helmet off and telling him, "I am no man," before thrusting her blade into his face...The crowd reaction was so intense and heartfelt, it made me want to write for a living, in order to move people on that sort of scale. Even writing about it now still had me getting a little teary eyed.
How about Angry 6th, Angry 9th, Angry 12th (there's a theme going there) and Grumpy War Doctor. They'd probably kill each other...with an Ikea wardrobe.
If only Hartnell had been alive round the time of New Who. Angry 1st could've joined in too. Nothing against David Bradley, but Hartnell's voice whenever he's angry and shouts is so empowering.
So this video is basically "10 out of 11 crossovers" Kind of like when people made "TOP 10 Doctors" when we still had Matt Smith... Also this video kind of seems like an excuse to bring up the Star Trek channel because that's the only thing that is an actually interesting and unexpected crossover. Series 4 finale is closer to that, but it's all in one continuity, so it's a different kind of a crossover... And the rest are not crossovers at all.
If you read the novelisation of The Day of the Doctor, Moffat even wrote in a bit for 13, making it truely feature all the Doctors. (Well, apart from Jo Martin) Personally, I do think Twice Upon a Time could replace Dimensions in Time on the list since the latter is not canon.
I wish we had a Doctor Who Crossover of David Tenant and Christopher Eccleston meeting face to face for The first time ever cause that would have totally been immense.
My favourite crossover's are when the eleventh Dr joins Sarah Jane in the Sarah Jane adventures and the Christmas special with the three doctors and the war Dr.
Yeah the Day Of The Doctor was also my favourite crossover ever made too. I know this video is 2 years old, so NOW I hope they make another crossover some time soon. Preferably not with the new doctor coming soon though. I would love to see Peter Capaldi and David Tennant get a shot at doing one and in the end, Matt Smith's doctor saves the day by appearing at the end. Yeah, If you haven't figured, Matt Smith's doctor was my favourite of the whole casting of previous doctors :D
There’s was a Virgin Missing Adventure featuring the Sixth Doctor called Burning Heart (January 1997) that was intended to be a crossover with Judge Dredd. The book was originally planned to be a crossover with Judge Dredd (Virgin held the rights to the Judge Dredd novels at the time) but this plan was scrapped after the release of the 1995 film based on that character. The character of Dredd was replaced by one Adjudicator Joseph Craator.
