Doctor Who 10x13 SPECIAL REACTION!! "Twice Upon a Time" 

Please also react to Honest Trailer for new who and classic who.

I think the reason the new doctor became a woman is cause most of the real strong characters are women, take the mars queen she wanted bill"s intake on what to do and not the doctors' and when clara did what she did to save her doctor. or when martha went around the world to help the doctor, or rose being rose and turning into the bad wolf to save the doctor. and yeah donna how she helped the doctor not become someone he would hate to be, and donna saving the doctor again.

Don't react to this sjw propaganda it sucks.

@@nikoskn1252 Brace yourselves we have the 9000 iq anti-sjws who think female lead is propaganda

Awesome thumbnail! :) The Thirteenth Doctor's First-Words should have been: 'Still Not Ginger!' Hey, if anyone's interested, I'm reviewing all the Doctor Who stories on my channel, with me just having uploaded my review of: 'Death To The Daleks (1974)!' No pressure, of-course; It just might be worth checking out! :)

I prefer his comment on the rug Bill had bought him 🤣

I was expecting the reaction for "I am younger!" lol

But also Bill's line: "long story short, i totally pulled"

@@JuanSam I don't remember that line, but that's probably because I don't understand what it means. So it didn't stick.

@@firefly24601 it's just slang that means "getting lucky" with someone

I also like that this episode confirms that Clara did, in fact, eventually return to Trap Street to die seeing as she has a glass avatar at her current age.

But did she remember her adventures?

@@BlueSparxLPs was that a glass version of Clara? or did the glass Bill unlock the Doctor's memories leading to a vision of Clara? Doc even says he has his memories back.

@@donaldwatson7698 Maybe it's a bit ambiguous in the episode itself, but the episode as written is that Clara appears to the Doctor as a glass avatar. The more "dreamlike" feel to the scene occurs on-screen because Jenna Coleman couldn't appear on that set to film at the time and had to be green-screened in later.

Blue Sparx I always assume she went back because the universe hasn’t collapsed yet haha

Or redress, the TARDIS definitely doesn't like to be naked in front of the Doctor xD

Yep let me just grow some weird looking crystal thingys that bob up and down

Duolingo I love the crystal thingies. What are the crystal thingies? No idea.

@@Jim_The_Fish Nah let's stick to the round things xD

@@avocadothecat what are the round things?

Me too

Same. It gets me everytime.

I was so happy that he remembered Clara in the end. I did not see that coming.

Gonna be great!

Both of them preferably!

@@kellykat3554 You are bad

@@LordMooshroom no u

up

Too bad it doesn't work as a competent episode of television. My family laughed when Capaldi regenerated. Only hardcore fans liked this episode.

@@LiveHedgehog Hardcore fans were pissed at the character assassination of the first Doctor. I was also pissed at how insanely drawn out Capaldi's regeneration was. I just didn't care when he did because I did all my mourning in the six months he took to regenerate. I do miss when the Doctor could just change without there being some big drawn out thing about it.

Anyone who doesn't appreciate this episode can get fucked. It's such a wonderful story.

@@cameroncaws8506 what character assassination do you speak of? I have seen all of Hartnell's episodes and I completely disagree with your assessment.

@@lostfremen lol no it isn't. It's awful.

He also did the opening black hole sequence in "World Enough And Time" too. Amazing how they hired someone who created stuff for fun to end up working on the show. The production team did know about him for a while before from RU-vid and invited him to set, he likes to remain rather anonymous I believe in public.

@@fleason771 Adding onto this, Capaldi's title sequence was also a sort of remix of a fan title sequence. They brought the fan who created it on to make a version that kept the spirit of the fan version, but was more themed toward what they wanted for the Twelfth Doctor.

John Smith?

Melron*

Shame she didn't tbh.

@@thedoctorgeneric5007 should have expected that comment really shouldn't I

@@thedoctorgeneric5007 that was my immediate reaction to when he said that 😂

@Doctor Tophat You have a terrible terrible taste if you think that... its the worse rated season in DW history. Just as bad as the last one. ZERO respect for Doctor Who, retconing and ignoring everything that been established before not to mention terrible, terrible writing that was dumbed down so much that no one is watching it anymore lol I was a huge DW fan for years but now? They might as well cancel it at this point, I don't even care.

Doctor Tophat, there's only been one decent episode (Episode 5) and that's the only episode that feels like previous eras. The rest have been as bad as S11.

Shame it didn’t carry on in this vein, and between 13 and the new direction her “baptism” may as well have doubled as a funeral for the entire series

@MarvelDC girl 1255643 2354 No she is not. There is a lot wrong with the new season.

Parker Groseclose yeah but it’s not her that’s the problem it’s the writing

@@desmondpoppy4511 I'd argue its both, but I don't know. I don't really like how she plays the Doctor, but I don't know if its because of the writing or her acting. She may be awesome if she had a decent script as a foundation, but she doesn't so I have judge based off what we have. And what we have is disappointing.

Parker Groseclose just going by season 11, then yeah I’d agree. But she’s much better in season 12 imo

All downhill from here 🤣

@@ChrisInScotland sigh. Yeah, season 11 is a bit of a hard watch. At least seaosn 12 has some stuff to like. Not a lot, but some.

@@ChrisInScotland Nah, Series 12 has been a big improvement so far.

Sooner or later, everything has to come to an end. And here we are.

i cant believe this is the last Blindwave DrWho video ill be watching. Loved their reactions to the show.

Ya, that's why it pissed me off they decided to skip it all in this reaction!

@@SGK1206 what about 'never be cruel, never be cowardly, hatred is always foolish and love is always wise?' THAT was what i was complaining about, the children thing is cute, but unnecessary, THAT was the bulk of this speech and it was omitted.

@@SGK1206 The children part was added in because of Peter specifically. In a q&a a young fan asked if Peter knew The Doctor's name, and he replied with almost the same thing.

Jokes are jokes.

Well, the jokes serve multiple functions. They serve to indicate how far removed One is from Twelve, to foreshadow the coming of Jodie Whittaker and give a different dynamic to the Doctor, as he’s at the same time in awe of him but also kind of embarassed. Isn’t that how we would act if we would be face to face with our kid selves? Maybe canonically there are some discrepancies, but damn it does make a good story. It shows how much the Doctor has changed, keeps changing, how change can be good. Doctor Who is a show that constantly changes after all. “We’re all different people throughout our lives” Matt Smith said in his final speech. For better and for worse.

I remember Peter saying in conventions (during series 8 and 9) that the villain he'd like his Doctor to face most were the original Cybermen. Moffat obliged. :) Some of the bigoted First Doctor lines were not originally given to him by Moffatt; the Doctor actually said them in episodes in the 60s. I can clearly remember him threatening Susan with giving her a jolly good "smacked bottom." I can't remember which other lines Hartnell spoke, but many lines we now see as grumpy, cantankerous and tolerable because it's a black and white episode in the 60s, really do stand out when put in a contemporary setting. I do think there were too many of them in this episode, though.

​@@michaeldeboer9940 My problem is not with the purpose they served, but with what the lines themselves were. They were jokes in bad taste. Given that is subjective, but I don't think threading that line should be a thing you go for to begin with. You didn't mind them? That's good, I'm glad for you. Other people did though. Also I don't think reducing the First Doctor to "well grandpa always says sexist shit at dinner, please don't mind him" is in any way doing him justice. Kind of the opposite really.

@@michaeldeboer9940 I'm embarrassed at myself from 2 weeks ago, for ever saying 1984 was anything near a Good book.

The problem is that the Doctor Falls was the perfect ending. No fuss, no sappy speech, just the Doctor dying heroically without hope without witness without reward. Then we had to wait 6 months to watch them milk the regeneration so hard that I stopped caring. I did all my mourning six months before he changed.

@@lucasdolding6924 A Christmas Special didn't seem necessary at all considering that Chibnall instantly dropped the.

Matt Cybus Agreed. This is one of my favorite episodes actually.

To be more specific it's the "Last Great Time War", so in theory, there could be more time wars, just smaller scale time wars.

It’s actually called “The Third and Last Great Time War” in an episode.

Time of the Doctor is episode 800, so this will be 840, as Capaldi has 40 episodes. The show currently has 857 episodes, as of the most recent episode.

The 709 specifically refers to _The Tenth Planet_ part 1, which is the 131st episode overall. As the number fades it starts showing clips of parts 2 and 3, then reconstructed scenes from part 4, of which only the regeneration scene and a few other clips survive. _Twice Upon a Time_ is the 840th episode.

I went to the comments specifically hoping someone would address this so that I wouldn't have to. So thank you for that.

Wish 12 had refused to regenerate

@@morningcoffeecat2271 ok boomer

To the boomer, series 11 wasn't great. But if you can't see the series 12 has improved, you can't see the forest for the trees. Or maybe a better analogy would be the river for the pond.

@@sayurimmiranda im younger than you🤔

@@hichaelmartline Honestly, I absolutely hated series 11, but 12 is a lot more interesting, to say the least. That new twist really does slaughter doctor who lore but, either way still loved it.

A bit drawn out, as final speeches go, but still decent.

Gets me every time

How do you feel about Tennant. He is my doctor

Milky Whitepee That was my first time seeing her as well.

aamj 00 I just hope I can keep up, since I’ve only watched one episode of her run so far, I gotta go.

I excited to see how much they hate it cause the quality of writing goes down so much that its hard to watch... I was a huge fan of DW but at this point I don't care anymore. They might as well cancel it and I would be fine with that...

@@Pir-o im excited to see them enjoy it personally, because they probably will.

@@Pir-o same man i'm done watching until chris chibnall is gone and the bbc change the way the show is going cause its absolute shit i dont watch doctor who just so i can know how shit the real world is i watch it because its fun and i dont think about the real world for a while i cant do that with series 11 and 12. The twelve doctor should have just chosen to die instead of this shit.

@@SuperGamingpepper I can't believe there are people who actually think that and they are not just trolling.

Let's hope Mr Hartnell _stays_ the original and none of this retroactive continuity of a cycle of women before him. Uurgh!

Adam Darren Lmao rewatch Fugitive of the Judoon. A lot of fans missed the obvious there. I know for a fact it’s either one of two things. One possibility is the Season 6B theory. Google it.

I don't need to Google it, I've known about the 6B fanfiction-fanwank for almost three decades. Never bought into it. Never bought into fanfiction in general. What's the other possible theory?

@@mekonta the whole '6B' fandango doesn't make a lot of sense to me either. the current show-runners went to great lengths in the last series to construct 'stand alone' episodes - presumably to make the show more accessible to 'casual'/new viewers. it would seem counterproductive to all of that to suddenly start referencing 'deep fan' material in a big way. perhaps ruth is a regenerated susan paying the doctor back for leaving her stranded in a dreary, dalek-ridden london with a crummy boyfriend!!

@@mekonta Notice how you didn't say a cycle of *doctors*, or a cycle of *incarnations*, but a cycle of *women*. Why exactly is them being women worse?

Three Doctors. Also, Aaron was reading Broadchurch off and mentioned Gracepoint as well. Gracepoint was an inferior retelling of Broadchurch set on the west coast of the USA. They got David Tennant to play the lead in it as well: basically a clone of his Broadchurch character but a different name.

Also arthur darvill who played rory

Missed that

My apologies, the announcement of your death was wrong. But i will rectify that. Immediately. Rest....in peace....doctor!!!

That actually wasn’t David Bradley but the actor sounded extremely like him. I questioned it too while watching and I had to Google it.

@Jimmy Fisherkeller he was credited at the end of the episodes so I will have to disagree with you there

Liam Kershaw-Calvert Finally, someone with sense! The Moffat era was my favorite too, and SEVERELY under appreciated by several fans. Capaldi is my favorite Doctor, followed by Smith.

I really wish it was. Chibnall has killed The Doctor for me. He had no idea what he was doing writing that character, and now I don't even recognize the character.

@@epiccarrot88 same :(

@@epiccarrot88 Series 12 has been very good so far. So I have to disagree.

@@jeckjeck3119 Agree to disagree. It's still got all the main issues I had with Series 11. For me, the quality of the writing isn't what makes a show. The quality of the story isn't what makes a show. Sure, they both help, but they're not why I like stories. It's the heart, the soul, the passion for the story and the creativity. It's why the prequel Star Wars films are my favourite Star Wars Trilogy, despite the writing being pretty bad in some areas. Chibnall didn't have a story to tell, he had politics to discuss. He didn't take over Doctor Who because he had a grand vision of where he wanted to take the story, to build upon the work of the previous heads, and to create a piece of art. He did it because he wanted to make Doctor Who more woke; the show, in his eyes, needed more diversity, and more left-wing politics. He didn't care about the story. Mickey, Captain Jack and Martha are some of the most popular characters in New Who, despite them all coming in succession to one another and all being minorities. People didn't complain then because there was a clear story being told. Mickey being constantly insulted by the Doctor, realising he was just letting it happen, toughening up and becoming someone The Doctor ended up respecting. Captain Jack was a man from the future who conned people, only to end up trapped within his own life. Martha liked The Doctor, but eventually began seeing that nothing could ever happen between the two and that she deserved better than post-Rose Doctor was treating her. They all had a clear story to be told, and it was evident in their very first episodes.

The show ended here tho. Everything else is just a terrible fanfiction written by 14y old girl from tumblr for a group of mentally challenged 12y olds. Its just better to pretend its not cannon

We were all sorry to see Murray go.

Honestly it makes me more uncomfortable the more times I see the way he’s written. It’s a shame as David Bradley portray’s the First Doctor with such perfection that the cheap jokes really bring the whole thing down.

@@SamR1995 Yeah its unfortunate

Moffat is horrible that way.

I know, they should have put those sort of things down to the time they were written, I don’t even remember the first doctor saying anything like that sort of stuff from what I’ve watched, but you have to get your political message that men are bad and all that I guess. Also, it was only like two episodes ago the Doctor went on saying the Time Lords are so far beyond our petty concepts of gender or something and then they go write the doctor as a misogynist!

Not really. Its heavily exaggerated, but it was fairly in character.

Let's wait for the next few weeks before giving ourselves too much credit

Unfortunately the shitty “fans” have arrived because they can’t just let people enjoy things. I didn’t appreciate Series 11 until my second viewing of it, and Series 12 has really blown all of that out of the water. I’m absolutely loving Jodie now. The style has changed in Doctor Who now, but once you get adjusted to it, it’s quite enjoyable. Series 12 is reminding me a lot of the Tennant era.

In what way do other people's criticisms impact on your enjoyment of the show? If you enjoy the show, all power to you but don't blame it on other people's criticisms if you're not enjoying it as much as you used to. That's the show's fault, no one else's.

Me too, we lost the Doctor.

Yep... All downhill from here

@@bigfatcarp93 No idea how that happened.

With so many things going on, he didn’t really focus on the fact that it was 709 episodes ago, but the number stayed in his head. He thinks Twice Upon a Time was episode 709. Easy mistake. But yeah.

That's because at the moment, Chibnall has done nothing emotional at all. His story arcs haven't had any enormous heart-wrenching moments.

​@@UKTheOmegaPyro The whole Ryan and Graham relationship arc in series 11 gets pretty emotional. I remember Melanie tearing up in their reaction of It Takes You Away when he finally calls him grandad. Also, if Demons of the Punjab isn't emotional I don't know what is.

Cause the quality went down this season. But its still was 10000x better than the current season of DW. I rly feel they gonna hate the writing cause the quality of the show went sooooo down that its just sad to watch... truly a dumpster fire. For me they might as well just cancel the show cause WHOcares anymore?

@@DiegoE02 srsly? that was emotional for you? that terrible writing? Geeez. I've seen commercials that were more emotional

@@DiegoE02 Demons of the Punjab emotional... The only emotion I feel is cringe. That hack writer created one indian character just to make an episode in India but later forgot she even exited or that she was a cop lol... Thats why she barely speaks at all and has no character. Yeah... very emotional... Also think about those Demons. So now everyone who dies not only gets scanned by the glass but also he has some demons looking at him? Getting a little bit clouded huh? Give the dead some space!

Callum Dyne Great show but I feel they should have left it as just one season, I enjoyed the second one as well but I feel the third was really unnecessary, leave on a high and all that!

If they think the next season is even watchable they will lose all credibility lol

@Oll why the truth triggers u so much my friend?

Almost there.

michael jeacock I was thinking the same thing

Doco56 Yeah, its the first time I’ve been excited to see their reaction to a Chibnall/Whitaker episode because up to now they have truly sucked!

@@keithwatson1384 Season 12 is really good so far.

@@keithwatson1384 Not true at all

Crazy4Comics What’s not true? Maybe you liked it but I wasn’t too keen.

@@keithwatson1384 Fair enough however you were stating that they were awful like it was factual not an opinion, so I'm disagreeing with that statement

Give it time.

@@mekonta I was about to say the exact same things mate

Some other fans, too, mostly jumping on the "OMG, they made him a misogynist" bandwagon. There's maybe a handful of times where The First Doctor makes an old-fashioned comment, but that doesn't make him a sexist. It's quite obvious that the lines are only there for comedic effect - more for the Doctor/Bill to react to than for Bradley's character as such - and I'm quite happy to take them on those terms.

I hate the term bandwagon Just because a opinion is popular doesn’t mean it’s invalid But apart from that I agree

@@oliverbennett8515 Perhaps "bandwagon" was the wrong word. I'm not questioning the validity of the opinion, just that the extremity of someone's response to a given episode can be coloured by a desire to conform with their peer group. It's a well-attested psychological phenomenon, so it's only to be expected I guess.

😂

He was also Danny Boy from the Churchill episode and that chess player in the ‘shock chess’ or whatever it was! He’s written loads of Doctor Who episodes! And of course he co produced Sherlock with Moffat

@@keithwatson1384 Lazarus too 😀

The_Judge_ Yeah, but they mentioned that one in the reaction so I didn’t bother mentioning that one!

@@keithwatson1384 Ah, my bad !!

The_Judge_ No prob.

And Olivia Colman (she made a guest appearance in The Eleventh Hour).

Rania Lian oh yes, I was trying to remember if she was on Doctor Who.

I love the smell of Nepotism in the morning.

She has a couple of good eps, but that's literally it. A couple.

Shaky thus far. Mostly a writing thing. I liked Rosa and some others. Fugitive ep not bad.

I'm sure they'll survive... just.
