Doctor Who - 60th Anniversary Special 2: "Wild Blue Yonder" REACTION! 

The unsettling atsmophere in this episode gave me big Midnight vibes. Loved it.

Those were the last scenes Bernard Cribbins filmed. They wanted to film more with him but his health was declining. So this is unfortunately the last we'll get of Wilf. We may end up with a double in the chair from the back view or something at the beginning of the next episode but as for Bernard himself. This was it. RIP Bernard Cribbins.

FUN FACT 101: The house at the start is Woolsthorpe Manor, Sir Isaac Newton's family home.

Now *this* is the RTD that I missed. Less End of Time and more Midnight.

WILLLFFF excuse me while I drown in a puddle of my own tears...

I'm really proud of myself for guessing that the Doctor who came back into Donna's room was a fake the moment he squatted down. Unexpected side effect from a decade of watching the show. XD Just put me in the writer's room for next season.

This was a genuinely unsettling episode, the bit where they were each talking to the "other" versions of themselves at the start was such a simple thing bit so well executed.

I just knew that robot was going to be the chekovs gun in the room the moment I realized most robots in doctor who aren't evil they're usually out to complete a task and somethings gone wrong

It was confirmed by RTD during the new episode of Doctor Who Unleashed that the scene at the end with Wilf is the only scene he was able to film before he died. So he will not be in next weeks episode sadly.

Donna was introduced to the concept of regeneration prior to thr Doctor Donna in "Journey's End." Also, it's conceivable that she's able to retain some of the Doctor's memories, especially if they were very emotional or traumatic--much like we do with our own memories.

Besides Newton at the start, this episode was just Tennant and Tate for an hour and it was glorious

I liked the last episode a lot, but loved this one. As you said, it feels like a really good one off Doctor Who story. I know folks interpreted the secrecy around the episode as it being cameo ridden, but I'm really happy it wasn't. just a really good mystery episode that feels like a nice blend of Rebel Flesh and Midnight. Wish we had more time with Tennant and Donna, but honestly I get after this if Donna is just done with the Doctor, that was a lot!

I so wish we could get a full season with these two again...

I used to watch all of your Doctor Who videos a few years back. Those were good times. I am so glad Doctor Who is back and that you uploaded so quickly. I gotta see someone else's reaction before I explode.

Preferred this episode so much more than the first one cannot wait for the next one. Highlight of the ep was either the wilf reveal or the scene where the clone brought up the doctors origins.

Yes, you probably noticed that many people here love Donna, the point is that Donna is a character and the new classic was filmed for a whole season, she was nominated as the best companion of times. I'm glad to see her again that she was brought back from the new classic Doctor Who.

Honestly. This is one of the best episodes jbe seen in a long time, the 'monsters' were hilarious 😂

RTD while writing the end of this episode, ‘hmm I haven’t made the audience cry yet’…. *insert Wilf* 😭 😭

I said this in my own review, but the Budget from Disney for this episode is amazing! The creatures would not have had been possible to this extreme in either Original New Who and also Classic Who. It's impressive.

This, this episode man, this was just fantastic, also this is an incredibly quick turnaround on this reaction damn

Legit just finished this episode and came to see if you reacted and you posted minutes ago 😂 perfect timing

Pretty sure Donna did have the memories when she was the DoctorDonna, which is why she knew he regenerated, but after letting it go she can’t access it any more with her human brain.

can we touch 2k likes for this one guys? loved it. HBY?

I really enjoyed the episode myself. But I will say, no one writes a Doctor Who “30 seconds from the end of the episode” cliff hanger like Russell T Davies! That felt the most like 10th Doctor era to me. Great job on the reaction!

Best episode for YEARS. Creepy, scary and very mysterious. I love the mentions of the Timeless Child and the Flux, and I find it much better than just putting them under the rug

14:50 I literally said the exact same thing about his hair at that moment haha

"Maybe that's Cassandra" - I needed a new cup of coffee (and quite possibly a new keyboard) after that one. ;-) Great reaction to an awesome episode with great performances by Tennant and Tate, and the kind of Midnight elements I've not seen for a long while. And seeing Bernard Cribbins return as Wilf was such a moment of pure joy, even if it was for such a short bit.

I love how much you love Wilf. He’s my favorite. He’s so great. I was heartbroken when he passed, but so happy he got to do these scenes. I hope he loved doing it.

I wondered about the X on his head too. LOL

Can we just have several more seasons with these two actors?

I think we can all appreciate the mavity of the situation,...

I really enjoyed this episode, much more than the previous one. It gave me Midnight vibes, very creepy.

Brilliant episode and I literally cried when I saw Wilfred 😭😭😭

Ngl, i expected a cameo from one of the Doctors or companions considering the enemies are shapeshifters, but the mentioning of the events of Jodie's era and the old soldier at the end, it was more than enough 😭😁💙💙

I loved this episode, I really tried to like the last few seasons of who but this felt so much like what I’ve been missing, having an engaging companion and a doctor actually expressing something!! it was Midnight levels of eerie. You really got the sense of how unknown and truly alien the no-beings were. This legit could’ve been a whole space horror movie. Also did you notice that they kept saying mavity instead of gravity not as a joke…they accidentally changed history with Isaac lol

"maybe that's Cassandra" LMAO

I heard a really good theory for the entities in this and it was that the Entities were the Midnight entity but more evolved which makes them more terrifying since they would've known the Doctor

The tardis playing a war song for the doctor is a call back to David tenants regeneration, I believe so anyway: back when the ood said “your song is ending, but the story never ends”

The Changellings of the Edge of the Universe are one of the best new villains in a long time, really scary.

This was a great episode, This is the Russel T Davies that I remember. Great seeing Wilfred back too

Am happy to see I'm not the only person moved to tears by Wilf's appearance. I was doing the same thing you were. Clapping in delight while simultaneously blinking back tears. ❤😊😊

It was unsettling and bloody brilliant ☺️

Loved this episode I’m excited for the giggle

Your timing is perfect 🙌

Glad to see ur doc reactions bro keep up the good work 🎉great ep reminded me of midnight and silence in the library

"I loved that man😢".... The Doctor. Brilliant episode 🎉🎉🎉. Brilliant reacting. Channel Brilliant. Thanks. Happy thoughts to all.😊

I loved the emotional beats of the episode and the mystery of the monsters being a mixture of the midnight entity and the boneless plus I really liked the mavity of being outside of the universe with no way back. All in all fantastic episode and an improvement to the first one

I honestly love this episode so much. I love the way the "entities" are played, especially by David. Everything even down to their CGI being kind of off, uncanny, the way they play them, like they are looking through the real ones and the way that they talk was so creepy. I love it.

The Doctor was just under 1000 in series 4, now he's over 2000, his adventure with Donna were over half a lifetime ago

I was wondering how long it would take him to realize that they were in the same time zone, that they were two different people in the same place and Donna and the doctor. Wow they gave me a headache just by typing it.😅😂

Happy to see Doctor Who doing weird spacey horror again, it's what it was most famous for and almost defined by before New Who, yet this many years into New Who it's become almost a background element so it's always good when they remember to put episodes like this in. Ultimately, it was fine but just fine. Not an all timer imo but enjoyed it more than most the last decade of the show so at least there's that. Which says a lot I suppose.

at first i thought they were the 2 dimensional monsters from season 8

Just sat down to eat and you drop this? Oh yeah we eating good tonight

Unfortunately Wilf won't be in next week's, he passed away in between filming =[

10:25 yay, Bionicle reference.

I DIDNT REALIZE YOUVE SEEN FARSCAPE!! Ive just started season 3 so i have to go watch that now haha

The last appearance of Wilfred Mott, Mr Bernard Cribbins. What an appearance. RIP.

Bernard Cribbins passed away after filming that scene at the end so unfortunately he won’t be in the next episode.

Love the fact message wasn't ruining this epp it was great and for any young fans David and Donna the best

im not sure if anyone has said it but i atleast heard that the scene with wilf was the only one that bernand managed to film so that was the last time we see him:(

I really liked this episode, delving into their relationship and a classic mysterious entity like midnight.

Given how short on time they were at the end one of the only things the doctor could do was pick a Donna in the moment, the copy couldn’t hold herself together reading the doctor so she would’ve revealed herself fast enough once in the tardis the doctor could just back up and kick her out like he did. I think another good way the doctor could’ve told the Donna’s apart at the end would be to say answer on 3, is wild blue yonder Jolly or a war song ? Real Donna would’ve said both and the no-thing would’ve said war because they’re still struggling with the concept of believing two things at the same time and also they’re obsessed with violence and war.

I CRIED LIKE A BABY when I saw Wilf!!!!!!!

Felt like Event Horizon crossed with The Thing honestly loved it

Gotta love a meta 'put me in the writers room!' always look forward to your Doctor Who reactions and of course you never disappoint!

Loved this episode was a good old fashioned original story without relying on a old villain

Rest in peace Bernard aka Wilf ❤❤

Speaking of Vampires, there’s a story in classic who where the doctor fights space vampires.

I don't know If you've noticed but when Donna talks with the Doctor about where he has been since they last saw eachother, there's Clara's theme playing in the background from "Last Christmas" episode!

they really cooked with this one

Great classic episode to lead into next week.

After the episode, I am already watching you. Let's goooooooo

My joint favourite episode alongside Midnight

this was the best episode since 'Twice Upon a Time' by far

I feel like there's no way Donna could have retrained the doctor's memories of the past 15 years it's too much for a human brain especially since the doctor probably remembers details very very specifically

I enjoyed this one quite a lot, very eerie. I do agree with you however that Waters of Mars is a similar episode that is absolutely unmatched. Probably my favourite episode of the show still, which funnily enough I came to conclusion to from watching your reaction, lol.

I loved this, give me a season or 3 of this, I'm happppppppppy

The way RTD addressed the Timeless child gives me hopes he doesn't plan to ignore it like the 8th Dr half human thing. He actually plans to address it and hopefully make it make sense in a far better way to that of chibnall.

I enjoyed it ❤❤ yes I agree she lied and was waiting for him to bring it up

"What's happened since I last saw you?" The Ponds River Clara The return of Gallifrey A new regeneration cycle Bill Missy became a good guy He almost didn't regenerate The Master returned as a Villain Gallifrey was destroyed again and its people turned into Cybermen The Doc learned they have had more than one regeneration cycle already, and had an Identity before the Time Lords existed The Doc's past came out in an ugly way and destroyed half of the universe, killing millions. Ryan, Graham, Yaz

“Why’s there an X on his head? No wait, that’s his hair.” My exact thoughts when I watched that moment too 😂

can't wait to see your reaction to this lol

Such a great reaction. For inference, I have many not sonic screwdrivers.

Hot damn man you were ON IT today

3:57 TARD-less was the better option, honestly 😅

"Favourite moment so far" Oh uhh, right about the end of the episode

oh ya, forgot to say, "once a year, the museum...."?? ya right, like things can't go sideways for the Doctor in a museum, a place full of artifacts that some alien thing got hidden inside X years ago

A weird amount of Farscape tie-ins throughout this episode… the lost ship through a wormhole, the Scaran skeleton, the cliffhanger music sounding like the Farscape intro… do you think RTD is a fan? 👀

I missed you nearly as much as doctor who! Sorry that I'm a fair weather sub but it is what it is. I'm here ain't i😅 You were perfect. Thanks ❤

14:52 oh thank god, I thought it would only be me who thought the Doctor had an X on his face in that shot. Of course maybe it comes back… maybe that wasn’t the creature… maybe it was the 10th doctor. I’ll show myself out.

Remind me a lot of ‘The planet of mars’, but as good.

WILF!!!!! 😭😭😭

Wasn't expecting your reaction to be up today. I thought it was an OK episode. I might watch it again to see if it will change my mind but seeing wilf again made me very happy.

Good video but I hope to be able to see it in full 😊

You mentioning Ms. Marvel got me thinking. Until this I would've assumed that doing Ms. Marvel's powers the way they are in the comics wouldn't be workable or realistic enough in live action. I thought that was why they did her powers differently on her show. Now I'm left to assume they had other reasons for making her powers so different.

3rd episode will be good too , toymaker enemy of the doctor

One thing I was hoping for was to see the creatures turn into a different version of the doctor each time they appeared. It would have been cool to see the creatures take the form of Matt smith or Peter capaldi.

Let’s gooo!

I tnink they just invented ketamine sci fi and I'm totally here for it

You forget his pockets are bigger on the inside
