The Fourteenth Doctor is Here! | BBC Children in Need 2023 | Doctor Who 

such a great analysis

but to be fair the daleks could have had CLAWS instead of plungers so he does some good with them

The Doctor allowed their creation to continue as 4, saved a child Davros as 12, and now accidentally Bootstrap Paradox'd the name Dalek and contributed to the plunger lol

@@z0mb1fied39some still have claws though

Their like his joker, no matter what they will always come back

Call back to 12s monologue about it too

Interesting how it was to do with the daleks then too and now as well. Love the meta commentary

I mean the Cybermen are based on the 5th Doctor. Soooo.

He also called them Daleks in Genesis of the Daleks (Tom Baker) aswell before the name was adopted

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay in the future..

I am a bit confused. I was under the impression that Davros was very much already blind and borged out when he started the Travelling Machine project. I mean, Timey-Wimey is as Timey-Wimey does, and he's every inch Davros in spats as he is in a Hoveround, but I feel like the Doctor would evert himself in surprise if he realized Davros made it that far into his timeline able to handle stairs. I bet the Mark III has lift technology to deal with stairs since Davros probably still uses the things.

Thats a point actually. In Genesis he is in the chair. And his early Daleks are based on the chairs design. Hence all the kids in our infants school when Genesis was first broadcast thought that Davros was what was inside a Dalek and someone had taken the top part off. It took me ages to convince them it was a man, and he was the designer of the Daleks and the Daleks were what the race of men would become. Yes I was so into Doctor Who even at five years old. Maybe ol Davros was designing away and coming up with this...then he gets splattered in the rocket attack and builds his chair and life support and then continues with the work till Doctor 4 shows up to put a spanner in the works....and dynamite in the mutant lab....

@@Simon-xc5oy No, this is the new Davros now...RTD doesn't want a disabled evil mastermind :(

​@@kimchi_b This is a time travel show, people. It takes place before Davros became disabled. Events are constantly getting scuffled around in this show's timeline, i don't think the TV show itself ever says Davros DIDN'T start the dalek project before his accident, and the lore has never been consistent anyway.

It's the exact same look that Muppets give when something fishy's going on.

More like WTF am I supposed to do with this.

Never thought I'd see a Dalek manage to give someone a side--eye

@@VBArtPlace lol

When was this?

i'm glad They're Called Daleks Thanks to him but He Also Nerfed them by Breaking the Claw

I sense a bootstrap paradox...

@@MachiasCastle It's Dr. Who, it's full of Paradoxes.

@@MachiasCastle It wouldn't be the first time

Let's not forget the Guinness of Daleks where 4th doctor got involved.

100%

I haven't followed Doctor Who in years. Is this an upcoming special or skit?

​@@cmdunk8391he's returning for 3 special episodes as the doctor alongside Catherine Tate as Donna!

@@cmdunk8391 this video in particular is a skit for children in need and unrelated to the up coming specials he’s in

The original reason why they had a plunger instead of an actual claw cause a claw was the original design for the Daleks is because all they could afford on BBC was a sink plunger just a normal red and tan sink plunger but it was black and white so nobody would notice

@@William_afton169the original BTS reason yes, but that’s nowt to do with an in universe reason

@@ZDProds-c8p Ohh yeah I was just giving the original explanation I didn't mean anything by it sorry

@@William_afton169dr who fans really need to learn to relax. It’s just a tv show!

Does that mean the plunger is technically a bootstrap paradox?

Nope I have seen Genesis Of The Daleks and it's Archive Audio of his dead original actor.

@@MediaArchive2-z9f NOPE its Nick Briggs. As Nyder (Peter Miles) never says these words in any of the 6 parts of Genesis

I can't believe they got him back, amazing

I liked that touch but the rest hated

@@markcolgan3262why?

I thought he was Nyder until I heard him over the tanoy 😊

It's the Nightmare Man!!

It's not like he returned to the series after 2015

Completely disagree, he was brought back brilliantly in Capaldi's run as the doctor.

@@TomH24297 That was in 2015

And also, the only time

​@@TomH24297Who are you saying this in response to?

He was always the best Doctor.

So true. Whittaker was definitely low energy.

Guy got into acting because of the series in hopes of one day playing the MC and he was so good at it they decided to let him do it again

At first I had mixed feelings about the Dalek casing coming first before his crippling, but then I figured it was just like Davros to model himself after his own creations.

I think Big finish, might snatch him up and give him some things to do

Doubt we will tbh

Only if you get to see the transformation

Young Adult Davros!?!

Excuse you but do you not remember what it can do? The sucking to death? The snatching of memories. I think its perfect the way it is. Plus, nothing wrong with a comical little feature.

I don’t think they will change it, nor that they should, it’s far too iconic now. But also, it’s always been kind of an accident in real life too! It WAS supposed to be a claw with which the Daleks could grab stuff, in the original design. Except they couldn’t do it, by lack of means and time, and so they plugged a plunger in the Dalek as a last minute resort and called it a day. And then it became legendary. Like, this episode is just an in-universe reenactment of the real life story and it’s BRILLIANT!!

@@tikimillie 'What it can do' comes from the writing and directing, not it's visual look. And it's always looked stupid.

These children in need shorts aren’t canon though, are they..?

This is the correct comment.

Davros will no longer be portrayed in his support unit. This decision was taken to remove the negative portrayal between disability and evil.

​@@RjgxxxRTD never said that he wanted to unwrite the entire story of Davros. where did you all get that?

@@kandi3361 He says as much in DW Unleashed. I mean, hopefully he didn't intend it as a retcon, but it's basically what he says.

​@@GrandHighGamerI guess clone body or the regeneration energy he stole from Twelve healed him back to this.

​@@Rjgxxxugh. Why would anyone think "they're cripple. That makes rhem evil"? even evil people get crippled just like good people. He's trying too hard to please the morons complaining about things. Either political correctness or those overbearing Moral Guardians

He had some makeup on specially around the eye sockets.

Only made deadlier.

The plunger is actually capable of grabbing onto anything and never letting go. A Dalek once crushed a man's head with its suction power. It's a funny skit lol but Davros legit had a hard on thinking of the engineering posibilites that a murder plunger provides

​@@satanus_369I'm having a soft off imagining davros with a hard on

Couldn’t agree more!

​@@_MyNameIsAJ_ Won't last forever.

@@wispa1a why so pessimistic. not complaining just curious

@@tandemyeti2515 Facts aren't pessimism. The show tanked after Smith. Capaldi was ok.... but otherwise it just went so far down hill so fast. Jodi's doctor sucked. I could barely make it through, the writing was so bad, the stories were bland, the visuals were over saturated. It all just sucked. But then we get this and the specials with Tenant and Tate... The doctor Donna. The most Iconic duo. And then they'll be gone.... And I've watched all of Sex Education and I just don't see Ncuti Gatwa being a good doctor....But maybe he'll surprise. Tenant and Smith are real character actors. They MAKE the role their own and bring a real personality to it. You can see it too with David in Good omens and Matt in the House of the Dragon. They MADE the role. Doctor who was amazing because of those two being so good and having such long runs. So we'll get the good doctor back for a few episodes and then it'll likely be trash again that fades from my memory instead of episodes I desperately crave seeing every week and monologues I can't help but memorize and constantly quote and feel a rush of adrenaline and power every time. I didn't get that from Capaldi or Jodi except for 1 or 2 scenes with Capaldi.

@@jairusstrunk94 WHile I agree with most of what you said hell I didn't even continue watching after the whole CyberTimeLords and the hybrid shit(IMO master should have been hyrid it would explain why he killed them all and destroyed gallifrey but I digress), I have to disagree wheh it comes to Capaldi. Some of his stories where great, the whole zygon speech... Come on that's brilliant! I'm excited for these specials, I'll be cautiously optimistic with what follow it though.

Why does the Fourteenth Doctor look just like the Tenth Doctor? Maybe they're stupid.

#ripdrwho

Lol he the 13 doctor wasn't brilliant no matter how often the bbc try to say it as proven by ratings

To bait fans back and use tenant as a straw man to lecture the audience on identity politics.

Nah, remember on the day of the doctor when 11th was talking to the caretaker (Tom Baker)? he said he might revisit some old faces.

Wait is that an oedipus reference?

@@louisjohnson628 no kung-fu panda, wrestle with that for the rest of the road.

@@TheNewton The saying, in various forms, is much older than Kung Fu Panda. I was quoting Oogway, though, so spot on!

Terry Pratchet, *is that you* ?

I love this!

I remember the first time I saw one back with the 9th Doctor. I was baffled by how ridiculous it looked. I remember thinking, "how can these ridiculous things be any sort of threat to the Doctor? They can't even handle stairs!" Then it came upon stairs and hovered, and I was like, "oh. I see they thought of that."

@@kickedwhendown247 the fuck?

@@kickedwhendown247 Daleks don’t have knees or genders. They’re just a boring, sad blob calling for the death of anything different. A bit like you.

​@@kickedwhendown247no need

It's one of the reasons I've always preferred the aesthetic of the Cybermen. At least they are _mostly_ practical.

Not that it was recent - this takes place way in the past.

This scene takes place in the FAR past for the Daleks. I wouldn't call it "recent" relative to other Davros appearances lol. Remember, the Doctor is a time traveler.

​​@@obiwankenobi687RTD said it's meant to be taken seriously. Edit: Yes he did, go read his interviews again.

​@@HOTD108_ No, he did not. It's a 'Children in Need' skit.

Absolute rubbish not funny at all. Goes against everything in genesis of the daleks

It can't be lore, because the Kaleds will move towards racial purity, including minority Kaleds with the wrong skin colour will be removed from Kaled society. Any prequal can't change what's established in "Genesis of the Daleks".

That's Dr. Who for you... The cause of, and solution to, all of the universe, time, and space's problems...

Yeah, though I do guess he didn’t really have a choice

What, did you want the timeline to go all Belgium?

He also rescued their creator as a child and accidentally left behind his sonic for him to study

"No no no no no no! You see, I never gave them those things, because I was never there, alright! Never! There!" -The 14th Doctor, probably.

Hello Ntom and crew

@@jstarwars360 Yo!

No, Michael Wisher was perfect for Davros...

@@Nuttybott The whole being dead for nearly 30 years does put a bit of a damper in that though.

He's got a lot of tension in those shoulders though. Should probably do some guided meditations

A bit of 12 also.

To be fair, "Klade" wasn't bad.

I, Davros gives a reason for the name

​Klade are an actual species in the expanded universe, insinuated to descend from the daleks. Despite looking human. Why are the writers so obsessed with anagrams, or is there an actual in-universe explanation fpr Davros naming his creations "kaled" backwards and the daleks' descendants anagramming "dalek"?

There's an aspect of Thirteen's in Fourteen's mannerisms, particularly Thirteen's friendliness. The way he calls the guy a new friend doesn't feel like something Ten would say to a stranger, but something Thirteen would.

It is interesting now that we are in a post-13 era, we can now look back more objectively on her personality, persona, etc, and can now say how future doctors are influenced by her, rather than simply saying she is a copy of 10 and 11. I binge watched the 3 seasons, so time crunched a bit for me and I didn't notice these changes as drastically as if I had watched the 13th doctor live, but she really came into her own character and it is actually quite a cool character! I wasn't a fan of Jodie's over-animating of the doctor's mannerisms (sonic screwdriver for example) in the first season, but the actress found her stride and I love the 13th doctor's personality now! I do wonder if maybe the writing is better than we give it credit for and will only find out as time progresses, but regardless of the writing and everything else, the 13th doctor herself was a great doctor. Excited to see the 14th doctor's mixture of 10 and 13! (and experiences from between)

10 grown up a little, with all of 11, 12, and 13's experiences. Remembering how they looked at his "vanity issues", and also now not dealing with the weight of destroying gallifrey since he can now remember saving it. Along with going back. He's still 10 at heart but a bit of a changed man with time. And all of that is already coming through in this short video

Image if Tennant got to keep his Scottish accent this time since 10 and 14 are meant to be separate incarnations. Wouldn't exactly have been the first time the Doctor went Scottish lol

​@@AndrewChapmanI wish they did that now.

Wish they'd met, it'd have been awkward lol

We are so back.

@@DanTheMan2150ADwho’s we? the real fans never left x

Love the way the TARDIS made its entrance 😂😂😂😂

Technically he didn't, the TARDIS did since its controls were locked up at the time. Read Liberation of the Daleks for more details. I'm curious how he managed to leave though since it's controls were technically locked up. Might have just used some other sort of control.

Bootstrap Paradox

@@anamorphosys85 Two of them, in fact, within thirty seconds. Fourteen really should be a little more careful.

It's meant to be hilarious but looking into it more, the Doctor just can't stop contributing to his enemies' creation, can he?

​@@claytabulusshogunThat's pretty hilarious, if you ask me.

The British really have mastered that humor that's at once dead serious and completely silly.

It's not pre-accident Davros. RTD has retconned his life support unit.

@@thefishwillbearmed7391 I don't think that's what RTD meant. The crippled Davros we have seen throughout the series' history will always exist but he'll probably be looking like the one we see in this special in his next appearances. And it should easily be explained with him getting the 12th Doctor's regeneration energy in A Witch's Familliar/A Magician's Apprentice.

I can tonally see all three of the last doctors in his personality here.

Should have been a new actor. BBC seems desperate.

Yal easily come back to nostlagia bait

@@MisterHeroman Call me non-Who-vian, but I prefer it when people are smart enough to take a step back to analyze what's gone wrong with the latest iteration of a project, instead of persisting in their claims that "everything's fine, nothing is wrong" while they keep burning the clothes off their backs to stay warm.

@@MisterHeroman Gonna be a new guy after the Anniversary specials or whatever, so just sit back and enjoy David Tennant in his Dream Role please. Besides, Baker told Smith that "you’ll find yourself revisiting a few but just the old favourites" and well......here we are with one of the All-Time Best ones

Perhaps not! The Kaleds are on a path to racial purity and anyone eventually regarded as a minority racial Kaled, like darker skin, will be removed during the ongoing war with the blond Thals on Skaro. RTD is messing with official canon just for the sake of it because he believes he not offending wheelchair users!

I loved Mawaan. I adore henchmen who aren't very good at being evil 😂

@@iwillheadlockyournan731technically yes, but it’s like removing a hand full of sand from a beach.

"I like it!" I love the way he said that line!

I think the some of the actors filmed it at different times which is why it a bit disjointed but... I like it.

It’s the way the music gets all dark and the choir rises that you think Davros is about to LOSE his shit and then it calms down and he is like “I like it…” I was laughing

To be fair the plunger arm would be brutal, imagine it sticking to your face and sucking it off

​@@Jiub_SN Didn't that happen to one of the old Torchwood employees?

​@@cyboisteveyes, it was grotesque and terrified me as a kid!

Yep

Crazily close knowing that they are based on that bunch of people.

@@drewfriend3368 i would not even mind if it was 1 to 1 the Dalek are nazis it what they based on as a reminder the dalek / nazi mind will always be waiting for a shot to stike

Daleks are pretty much space Nazis, hate everyone who isn't them, racial superiority, mass extermination of everyone they don't like

Yes. Pretty stupid of him to leave in the first place. He was still very young and should have done a couple more full seasons. He had plenty of time to do other roles still. Its not like he has had worldwide success since. He went to America and his tv show failed there (Rex is not my Lawyer) and his film remake of Fright Night did not do well either. He ended up back here doing more kitchen sink dramas like that one where he played a serial killer and then his role as that demon in Good Omens, which he played EXACTLY like Doctor Who with the same accent and manner and even some of the lines and phrases he used! Still he is a huge fan of the show and always gives 110% unlike Whitaker that hated the classic era and had nothing but contempt and ignorance for it. She just turned up said the lines and went home and it showed onscreen. Worst performance as the Doctor I have ever seen in the worst era of the show with the lowest ratings and popularity of the 2005 - era....it says a lot.

@@Simon-xc5oy bruh lmao david tennant is a critically acclaimed tv and stage actor (outside of doctor who and good omens he's most known for jessica jones and broadchurch) and is one of the most well known british actors today??? one cancelled tv show and a mid movie (which frankly, he stole the show there as just a side character) is nothing when you look at the rest of his filmography. and tbh i think you need to watch good omens again if you think he played crowley even remotely similar to the tenth doctor, his physicality and attitude and tone of voice are completely different (if you want a comparison, watch the clip of crowley in the burning bookshop and compare it to the doctor watching the master die in his arms. similar element of "losing your centuries-old close friend", but they're completely different characters and performances). he left doctor who at a really good time with RTD and i would take his three seasons of quality over it being drawn-out and extended past its time. i can't say anything about whittaker, since i've never watched her seasons past a few clips, but even in this 5-minute special i recognized tennant reflecting some of her doctor's mannerisms. clearly the two actors are friends and have a ton of respect for each other and their work.

I agree with some of this. But Tennant did leave too early in my view. He wanted to break America and get bigger roles and as an actor I cant blame him for that. But it never took off for him there as he wanted, not because he was bad, it just never happened. He has been in a lot of other things since, but did not get the big American break. Neither did Matt Smith or Martine McCutcheon after Love Actually. Yet Karen Gillan did and made the most of it with Guardians and Jumanji...such is the acting game.....

I hate to be “that person”, but the First Doctor was the first Doctor to meet the Daleks. That was when he didn’t know what they were or capable of.

To have a chance of salvaging this destroyed yet once glorious and venerable IP, he needed to disavow the Timeless Children, re-affirm Hartnell's Doctor as the First Doctor and try and get back to reuniting the fanbase around the established traditions and lore of Doctor Who we as fans all loved. He hasn't and he's made it worse by destroying Davros for the most clown world of reasons also. The Doctor Who franchise is dead...and as it stands, The Doctor failed to regenerate after the Capaldi era for mine.

@@tobiusgregory2805 Doctor Who is not dead and David Tennant and RTD will make it better.

If only the plunger detail could be made cannon, it's so Doctorish 🙂

Don't gotta wait too much longer, buddy! I'm dying of anticipation right there with you!

​@@electricblade5Same

you got a week basically to wait

cant wait for the 15th dr tbh

Oops.

You know what they say: Wibbely wobbely timey wimey

He sent them forward a few hundred years, only to then set them back a few thousand years in Genesis. I think it evens out.

Nono, this was not before he saw their genesis, from his point that was far in the past. You have to be considering what timeline you speak from.

@@lhpl as in, his 4th incarnation saw them at a later, slightly more developed stage, no?

I agree completely. Matt smith and capaldi were ok but i didnt love their seasons and i didnt watch whittaker not that i think shes not a good actress or she couldnt be good in the role but i know chibnall is bad and i just never came around to the doctor as a girl just doesnt fit the character to me but im definitely gonna start watching again now that davies is back in charge.

I have the same thoughts to a degree. I HATED Whitaker in the role. And after seeing some of her interviews and reading some of her thoughts in articles in magazines I started to despise her, as she showed her true ignorance of the show and the character and its history. To her it was nothing more than a job, and one always held by a male actor. So she took the role (though she was not first choice) so she could stick her fingers up to the fans, and push the hardcore feminist angle. Every interview was full of her going on about herself and what it meant to be a woman and to be in that role etc. I was so glad to see the back of her and RTD back in charge. Sadly in 2023 its going to go even more Woke with Nguti. So I wont be back to see any more or the specials. I might watch some in a couple more years if they prove its all about story and the Doctor in Ngutis first season. But with an openly gay Doctor (as mentioned many times in interviews leading up to Nguti on screen) and a trans and a drag queen etc in the cast, It seems more like pantomime to me. I just cant see it working out, and yet I hope I am wrong....

Huh? What mystery? It's a simple retelling of "Genesis of the Daleks" in 5 minutes

Fear not, RTD has already stated in an interview this isn't a young Davros, per se, but rather a complete rewriting... RTD was crying about how people in wheelchairs don't get a fair show... so he's relied on the good ol' reliable "white menz am evul" standard that seems to please vocal minority.

@@km76 RTD is not the one crying here lol

I just love the "60 minutes ago" line, so much meaning in just 3 words. Fantastic.

@@csukarobert249 60 minutes for him, we took the long way round.

​@@csukarobert249 i didnt read the story yet, i was waiting to have it in full, did it happen in a 60 minute period?

@@Monocheto1 Yes. It's a pretty interesting story, and I even have some theory how RTD can connect it to the Specials.

OMG he has ovaries!

It's not that part people are upset about - they're upset about an interview where Russell said Davros won't be in the wheelchair again which removes a pretty essential part of his character. We've seen in past episodes that Davros could easily fix his 'disabilities' if he wanted to - he just chooses not to.

@@GARGANTUANMASKEDFISH There upset because they watch anti woke people say the show is gone woke. You will see Him in his iconic darlex shaped chair next time. I don't care what Progressive PR BBC posts on Twitter, I don't believe writers when they say that stuff

So glad someone else saw the look. 😂

Only doctor who can do mad names and make it sound normal 😂

You're right! He played that 90% as if Jodie was delivering those lines. Good spot. And good acting /directing.

​@@Rex_Stuph were (it's a conditional clause as 10 once pointed out) /j

He's not you get davros this is the genesis of the daleks and he was already in a chair by this time, he was injured and mutated by the war on skaro the daleks were his vengeance on the thals and kaleds due to his bitterness and anger Davies says he will now be able bodied

Who are these people you speak of?

@@reknakfarg7252 The people who are currently at the head of doctor who/ the BBC

He never gets messed up now...this is new Davros :(

@@kimchi_b Completely stupid if so - especially given the reason by RTD; just idiotic.

This is politically correct Davros.
