I honestly believe the scene where the Doctor and Donna meet again and have that conversation mouthing to each other between two windows, is probably the best scene in all of Who. Because we don't hear either of them say a word, but we can still understand the entire conversation, and it's hilarious. That is some quality acting, writing and directing.
@@rachelcookie321 sure; (The Doctor and Donna see each other. Their conversation is totally silent.) DOCTOR: Donna? DONNA: Doctor? Doctor! DOCTOR: But what? What? What? DONNA: Oh my God! DOCTOR: But how? DONNA: It's me! DOCTOR: Yes, I can see that. DONNA: Oh, this is brilliant. DOCTOR: What the hell are you doing there? DONNA: I was looking for you. DOCTOR: What for? DONNA: I read it on the internet. Weird. Crept along. Heard them talking. Hid. You. (Then she realises that Miss Foster is staring at her and the Doctor.) FOSTER: Are we interrupting you? DOCTOR: Run!
I think there's something to be said for how Donna had only 1 season, Catherine Tate wasn't even really a fan of Doctor Who, and yet her and Tennant's chemistry carried so hard that we remember every single one of their episodes like she's the only companion in the show. Honestly an icon.
Just a sign of how accurate they were with what time period they were supposed to be in. It was the 1800s, after all. Not to mention just being publicly homosexual was outright illegal, in most places in the world. Included "engaging in acts of passion", like kissing someone of the same sex "with romantic passion", or even showing similar romantic affection, or arousal, for someone of the same sex in public. And yes, even just visible romatic affection of a member of the same sex would be a criminal offense at the time. EDIT: Fixed the first sentence.
Sign of the times. Thank goodness that the world is working on these issues, I say. I wish all people could feel free to be themselves, even nowadays, without fear of persecution from just saying, "Hello, my name is ____. And I am from _______, and I love _____ and _____!" Almost anytime I fill in that sentence structure, or similar (or I see someone else do so) the person will usually get judged beyond reason, without a reason, except for, "Welcome to the Internet!", or calling them [or myself] names, like asking if [I'm] "a N00b on social media for the first time?". It's pitiful, how some people, many of which are younger, less-educated people in their mid-late teens and very early 20s, are thinking that they have some kind of power over others. Age range based on many of the profiles like that that I have seen, but I can't really tell, of course. It is the Internet.) Just outright judging people that they don't even know, because they can, and they don't have to see the other person's reaction. Seriously, how can anyone be any less welcome online just necause of who they naturally are? I mean, if we were talking about someone being dangerous, in a realistic sense, like saying they wanted to hurt someone, then they absolutely should be reported, censored, [from chat rooms, social media sites, etc.], and investigated IRL (like a Wellness check.) So sorry for the rant. 😅 My ADHD got the better of me again! Sincerely, PotterheadMando, Human Rights supporter and Whovian since Nov. 2023 [NuWho & 60th Anniversary Specials]
And how the relationship is more or less inter-species and adding on the lesbian factor which is what overloaded the maid’s brain beyond what she can comprehend at that time period. Man that scene was funny as all hell 🤣 🤣
I think you missed two really great ones in “The Doctors Wife” DOCTOR: (Grabbing her hand to run) “Sorry. Do you have a name?” TARDIS: “700 years. Finally he asks.” DOCTOR: “But what do I call you?” TARDIS: “I think you call me…Sexy.” DOCTOR: (embarrassed) “Only when we’re alone.” TARDIS: “We are alone.” DOCTOR: “Oh. Come on then…Sexy” DOCTOR: “Amy, this is…well…she’s my Tardis...Except she’s a woman. Well she’s a woman…and…she’s my Tardis.” AMY: “She’s the Tardis?” DOCTOR: (Excited) “And she’s a woman. She’s a woman…and she’s the Tardis.” (touches the Tardis’ face) AMY: “Did you wish REALLY hard?” DOCTOR: (embarrassed) “Shut up. Not like that.” TARDIS: “Hello. I’m…Sexy.” DOCTOR: (looks at. Tardis then back at Amy pointing at her) “Ohhhh…Still… shut up.” And Wilf in “The End of Time” always cracks me up. “The End of Time” (Wilfred Mott enters the Tardis. Looks around in awe) DOCTOR: “Ahhh right. Yes. Bigger on the inside…Do you like it?” WILF: “I…I thought it would be cleaner.” DOCTOR: “Cleaner?! I could take you back home right now!”
The way Miss Foster just stares at The Doctor and Donna in a total neutral expression, makes me laugh, and you can see her hidden amusement on her face.
Nardole definitely was not the only person who could kick the doctors arse, Donna would be furious with that statement and I don't think Amy or River would be very happy either 😂
Honestly, for Rose to see the end of her world, the end of humanity, and hear about the end of the Time Lords, and want some chips is actually beautiful. Life is short, everything has an end, so seize the day.
You think that the line was "I want a mate" and that joke wasn't planned? 10 never refers to his companions or friends as mates other than in this scene. I'd be surprised if that were the case
@@joepod1125 He always refers to them as companions, he was just trying to get across that he doesn't want things to get romantically complicated like the previous companions. He's describing the specifics about the relationship, hence why he would use it. Anyway, my comment was more of a joke about Catherine Tate's line delivery than an actual speculation.
@@abhainnxv1554 fair enough, I figured he would usually use the word "friend" in that context, unless they were trying to set up the joke Sorry for taking you so seriously! Have a good one 😊
5:14 FOURTH DOCTOR: “Well, come on, old girl! There’s quite a few millennia in you yet!” ROMANA: “Thank you, Doctor!” FOURTH DOCTOR: “Not you. The Tardis!” Forgotten all about that one! Still amuses me! 😁👍
Ok look I love every single moment however special mention to Donna noble and how she makes the general salute her. She still has the fire she once had and it’s refreshing
Donna has canonically seen the doctor's bait and tackle and even though there was no romance between them, technically she got the closest to "3rd base" than any other companion
1:35 I could watch this a hundred times and it never gets old, probably one of the best comedic moments in Who. Well okay, except maybe when Rory is watching Amy flirting with herself and Rory looking up Amy's skirt under the Tardis floor. Gold
19:48 Apparently Freema absolutely hated doing that scene, because the writer decided to give her a bunch of technobabble because he couldn’t give it to the Doctor.
The amount of Clara’s audios w Matt Smith’s Doctor that went viral on TikTok is so funny 😭 can’t wait to watch their episodes now I’m watching the show in order
Alright, I’m not much of a lip reader, but here’s what I can get out of Ten and Donna’s mouthing conversation before I loose track: “Oh. MY. GOD!” “Wha-How?” “It’s me!” “Yes, I can see that.” “Oh, this/that is Brilliant!” “What the hell are you doing there?” “I was looking for YOU!” “What for?” Idk what Donna says here but she’s talking about the Adipose. Donna and 10 are my favorite duo ❤!
Watched it so many times that I already got to the point where I can hear Donna and The Doctor voices in the mouthing scene. Still can't get some words tho.
I think this one from Nightmare in Silver warrants a mention: Doctor: Ah hello, can someone untie me please? Clara: Do you think I'm pretty? Doctor: No, you're too short and bossy and your nose is all funny. Clara: Good enough
"Madame Vastra was wondering if you needed any grenades." "Grenades?" "...She might have said help." Strax will always have a special place in my heart.
Wait... ...I just realized Wilf was talking about the Slitheen. And maybe confusing them with the pig in that ship. ...how did I only just notice that? 14:27 hmm, Clara, I might know a few folks who'd disagree on that point. Very wet folks.
@@e.j.wanderer Ah it's from a series of minisodes that happened in 11th's run, Bad Night if I recall it correctly. Search for Doctor Who - Amy's Question here on RU-vid, it's 4 of them combined, it's really nice and character driven.
21:33 As someone who doesn't follow the audio dramas, I was hella confused here until I googled and apparently Charley's got a sister, Cecelia, who's often called Cissy, who also seems to be an all around terrible person. 😅
6:44 I literally had to pause the video and take a second to wheeze-laugh so hard I needed to drink water to recover. I _completely_ forgot about that line
Dan is honestly iconic. If we can all agree on one thing, chibs came through when he introduced Dan. And Flux was pretty good in general. Shame Chibs decided to start making good episodes when there were 9 episodes left. Like, where was that level of writing in season 11?
Idk how popular of an opinion this is, but I love the idea that jack harkness is the face of boe. Especially when he says 'you are not alone' and jack was a part of the episode with dr yana/the master. Meaning that he was only there because the doctor got a message from the future version of jack to send himself there, so that he could tell the message. More wibbley wobbley timey wimey stuff
Dunno if it counts but the exchange between Donna and Donna's mom in the trailer for the 60th anniversary. Donna: Skinny man! Donna's mom: HE'S NOT THERE! YOU CAN'T SEE HIM!
