#doctorwho #audhd #autism #adhd #10thdoctor #davidtennant I don't own any of these clips, all rights belong to the BBC one of the most (obviously) neurodivergent incarnations of the doctor imo
Lol, the fact that in the first part, the Tenth Doctor is in the New World Theatre thingy around the same time in which Crowley would have also visited with Aziraphale and they're both played by David Tennant, who plays in theatre before moving onto the silver screen- 😂 Not to mention the uncanny similarity to Crowley while he is calling the robot thing "thick"-
The doctor's pear hatred was so relatable to me, especially as a kid when everyone made fun of me for my food sensitivities and i didn't really know why i was like that.
Same!! I'm really sensitive to squishy foods like Brussels sprouts and I literally CANNOT bring myself to eat them, and I get beraded by elders for not eating my vegetables
you should see the extended 9 to 10 regeneration clip. He gets SO hyperactive and distracted. literally struggling to adjust to his new body and then he gets distracted by a lever he's never seen before
David Tennant just looks like he’s having fun all the time in this role. Which, isn’t surprising given he’s said it was his childhood dream to be Doctor Who after watching Tom Baker in the role. It therefore isn’t surprising he’s come back twice since then.
ten’s mannerisms have always been the most endearing to me. Im arospec so i dont usually get crushes on anyone, let alone fictional characters, but damn if ten doesnt make me stupidly happy to watch :) i love him
I am psychiatrically diagnosed ADHD, and as ADHD I think that people with adhd are somehow attracted to each other. Applying this, it sounds a bit weird, but you can notice when someone is adhd without them telling you so. I was kind of aware that the 10th and 11th generation had those traits from watching Doctor Who, but I didn't expect to find people on RU-vid feeling the same way. Even if their characters are not officially adhd, I think the writers are actually inspired by people who that have adhd.
Absolutely agree, pretty much all my friend group in school ended up being neurodivergent - we tend to unknowingly stick together 😭 and same, I kind of noticed they had ADHD/ASD traits but when someone mentioned on tiktok I rewatched those episodes and the neurodivergent traits seem so obvious 😅
Totally agree! And actually, fun fact, both Clara and Donna have canonically told the Doctor he has ADHD :3 With Donna it was somewhere in the Big Finish audio dramas. 12 made a passing comment in (I believe) the TV episode The Girl Who Died: "Clara says I have attention deficit... something disorder" Edit to add: Also in the audio dramas, 10 himself said: "If there's anything I'm not, it's neurotypical"
2:00 apparently him saying physics a lot could be him saying a ton of very advanced stuff and the tardis translating it into terms we can understand (a theory I heard somewhere lol)
i’m convinced that in The Shakespeare Code, when the doctor and martha are in the globe theatre and he’s obsessing over the 14 sides, him saying “14, why does it ring a bell?” was added so they could wait and bring him back as the 14th doctor
I reckon that 10 is AuDHD and 11 is Autistic (maybe ADHD). Both are very neurodivergent coded but I think 10 presents more ADHD and 11 more autism (it can happen when people have both but the symptoms of one are way stronger)
Ten was definitely the most impulsive out of all the doctors, it’s both his biggest flaw and what lands him in half the situations he ends up in (and this is why I relate to him hard 😭)
I love that the not liking pears transends regeneration, like have you seen 12's regeneration speech? I can't remember seeing 11 talking about pears, but I can assume that that is a universal thing between at least the three of tyhem if not every Doctor.
I love when 12 mentioned this, which he actually did twice, once during regeneration, but the first time was to Clara as the memory wipe was taking effect... I was in tears, then suddenly he mentions the pear thing and my brain short circuits into wanting to laugh, especially since, from what I remember, the pear thing was actually from an outtake... so it's like a little easter egg for only the most observant and obsessed of us😂
@@ElizabethMidfordHatesCops I don’t remember enough of the movie, but whenever I see clips of the Eighth Doctor, he personifies childlike JOY!! Very Neurodivergent!🥰
@@lisa_wistfulone7957 I watch the movie very very frequently. Once it's in my DVD player it's gonna be played every night for a week straight. Yes. Every second Eight is on screen it is neurodivergent in one way or the next. And then you get into the audio adventured! Like damn! Can only imagine what he's like in the novels.
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! screams as 10 and Rose gets yeeted across the TARDIS consol. That was fun.
Anyone else realise at 2:55 when he puts the jam on his finger there is only one finger there but then after it cuts back from rose at 2:58 there are 2 fingers
Being Nerodivergent is a superpower in its self. Seeing the world in ways that other people don't even dream of! Hyperactive boost does everyone the world of good I recon. Oh I love it when I get all hyperactive.
*Fry squinting meme* What if...teen me didn't just act like that because they wanted to be Ten, but actually related to Ten because they were already acting like that and saw a ND friend in him? (mind blown from recently coming to understand my neurodivergence)
Not to miss the point of the video entirely (but here I go), why is the aspect ratio the way it is? The series was filmed in wide screen but this is more like (or is?) 4:3. But it was also uploaded a month ago and not 14 years ago. Was that a deliberate choice for a particular reason?
