Oh dear, I think I know what happened to Sven before Adam arrived. To quote "The last guy who touched it, burst into flames".
There's part of me that wishes he said "I can't wait to touch it" or "I can't wait to get my hands on it".
It's obviously all there for jokes, but I actually like the idea that by touching artifacts linked so inexorably with the Doctor's timeline, information just sort of bleeds through....like, by finding the wires the phrase "do I have the right" just simply appears in his mind.
"Eldrad must live" at least makes sense.
If I'm remembering the story right, anyway.
"That could have been a mega-loss" 😂
This is my 2nd favorite Lockdown Special next to Farewell Sarah Jane! I loved all the references!
I agree. The Sarah Jane one almost made me cry, then I see this one in my recommended and it makes me laugh. Such a roller-coaster with these things innit? Lol
All this proves is that Four needed to wash his scarf more often.
The Fourth Doctor was, in fact, the biggest source of panspermia across all of space and time.
and knowing him, I'd believe it!
I think that you'll find that Captain Jack Harkness has him beaten hands down!
@@djashley2002 Touché! (As the Time Agent said to the Vervoid)
*The Fourth Doctor was, in fact, the biggest source of sperm across all of space and time.
"Remnant of an alien grub-like organism, or perhaps could even be bubble-wrap..."
Okay, I LOL'd
0:27 This feels like some kind of...horror-comedy!
Damn, now I wish we got Sven instead of Adam. References to The Ark in Space, Genesis of the Daleks, The Hand of Fear, Meglos, The Face of Evil (The story where the Jellybabies were most used). I'm missing something.
Ishaan Basu I believe the spongey bit is meant to be from Terror of the Zygons!
@@meiray Yes, it's a piece of the Zygon's organic computers.
Sven probably would have been more sensible than Adam, I doubt he'd have wanted a hole in his head!
@@blackphoenix77 thank you, that was the one I was trying to figure out!
Part of me is sad he lost his scarf. Other part of me wants to ask the Doctor why he never washed it.
She got it back in Resolution so all's well.
My mother and I knitted my Tom Baker scarf in 1982. As much as it really does need a washing (almost 38 years later), I'm afraid of ruining it...all 12' plus of colorful scarf.
The 4th Doctor always had loads of stuff in his pockets, imagine what would be in that coat of his.🤓
The entire time I was thinking "I recognise that voice" and then it hit me: It's Charlie from Kerblam!
No wonder there's bubble wrap😂
Sometimes I thought it sounded like sacha Dhawan 😆
I think the bubble wrap is actually a reference to a fourth doctor monster but I'm not positive
@@WHO_is_on_first Oh agreed, I was just making a point about the connection to bubble wrap and the fact it's Charlie.
I've no idea as to what 4th Doc monster/episode it could actually be referencing though😞
@@sarahtaylor5356 the Ark in Space, Tom's second story, and one of my favourites 😃. It features a giant insect called the Wirrn, and in its grub form it's basically a lump of bubble wrap 😄
@@jameskersey3035 Ahh thank you! I'm definitely more of a NuWho fan, so thats why I didn't get the reference. Nothing against the classics, but my childhood lives with Tennant ❤
This video should totally be included on the next Fourth Doctor season set considering it features his scarf and a bunch of references to his era.
I love the Dudley Simpson-esque music from Blair Mowat!
Agreed. If Mowat wasn't credited, one would think this was ripped from the classic era.
Loved the jelly baby at the end😂
This was genious an brilliant! Love it! Congrats to the creators!
Ok did he seriously never wash that thing? LOL
You don't wash away evidence, especially temporal archaeologic evidence. But, how did they acquire the scarf in the first place???
Why do you think he replaced it in Season 7?
@@marauder08901 Good point. I'm sadly not as up on the Classic series as I am on the Revived. I know the Classic series in broad strokes but details can be a different story. I did remember the Doctor changed his costume a bit towards the end of his run
@@bransrubar It was a unilateral decision by the new executive producer, and remains unpopular with fans of the original series to this date.If I remember, he's the guy who ultimately ran the show into the ground, leading to its cancellation.
But your question raises a good in-universe explanation for the change. The Doctor never washed it,and finally got rid of it because of the smell.
That must be why we changed damn y’all now I want this to become a MOVIE
Out of all the prequels this is my favourite just behind farewell Sarah Jane
Very good. Had me chuckling away. Thank you!
THIS IS EASILY MY FAVOURITE SO FAR!!! THIS IS SO FUNNY!!!
I know right? It's so great!
This is fantastic!! So excited for the tweet along now xx
Urm... Eldrad MUST live... Right, yes and that's not going to be a problem later. Nope not at all...
Yes, but Elisabeth Sladen was a lot cuter when she said it!
Love how Sven is included in the Dalek Novelisation 😎
The Wirrn was made from bubble wrap! Love it.
Stay safe. Stay happy and stay alive and stay at home.
River once said that a single cell of a timelord can change the fate of the universe
Did you mean to type faith? Is that her line? There’s a certain beauty to the idea. Must check.
Just to lower the tone, I always wondered if that meant the Doctor had to worry about leaving shed skin cells around, going to the lavatory, that sort of thing.
fate, I believe
"that was almost a mega loss" sigh goddamn it
I wish they had referenced the scarf in the credits. My mother has been making similar coverings since 1980. I would like to know if it was crafted especially for the video.
Fun fact: The bubble wrap is a refernce to the material that the grubs were made of in the episode Ark in Space
Yeah that was rather the point
Also, Sven is played by the guy who worked at Kerblam and tried to kill everyone with bubble wrap :)
@@FahadAyaz that's a shame, don't like it anymore in that case
@@FahadAyaz before Witchaker blew him up for no reason instead? Probably just so he wouldn't feel vindicated when they ended up acquiescing to his demands afterwards.
What a role model she is.
Doc 10 later: "THATS MY SCARF!!!"
I'm thinking that Osgood is really going to be pissed off.
That was great, I am loving all of this new Doctor Who content
They really are spoiling us.
The one most amazing thing about this is that Tom Baker didn't catch that scarf on something over seven years and break his neck a couple of times.
He did actually trip on it during the Sontaran Experiment. Apart from that...
We see him get his scarf caught on the TARDIS door when he's going in
Omg I have questions. Hahah why a 4th Doctor-themed prequel? 😂😂 Loved it though.
I'm not too sure 🤣. I wonder why 🤷🏾♂️😆
Makes more sense than a 13th doctor one
Why not? I think it's good that these aren't restricted to the new series.
Conceived during lockdown the first thought was what props did I have that I could use? That led to the scarf, and the idea that relics of adventures got caught in the wool, collected by the museum that hunts alien artefacts. Plus like the idea of bridging the classic series with the new series!
@@andrewireland9061 naturally yeah, use what you've got! Still sweet though.
They're less bridges more references though, it is the same show after all doesn't need 'bridging' all that much. (S11 & 12 on the other hand...🚨)
That... was pure comedy. 👏
This explains a lot. Imagine if UNIT later closed down the museum and Osgood was part of the group that did so and kept the scarf for herself?
this is so cool!!
THAT music, wow!
My gosh the Fourth Doctor really needs to clean his clothes. Also I'm not quite sure what part of Meglos is doing on his old scarf.
OK,These Puns Are Amazing!
RIGHT?
No they're punforgivable!
@@MrRjhyt
YES
That was so cool! Love the references too!
I was fascinated all the way through. I dont eat the green ones either.
Exactly.
What a unique and fun little prequel
Nice. Going back to (well, pre-) 9th Doctor on this one.
Awesomeness do more videos about the Van Stav vault it's a good idea
This is just a mainstream ASMR video. You can't change my mind.
"That was almost a mega loss" 😂😂😂
This. Is. Brilliant.
Eldrad must live!
that cactus thing was from the meglos episode 4th doctor adventure
Now we know where she sent Van Statten...
Homie I think you just created the introduction to a new doctor who movie !!
This is some freaky ASMR shit
This feel like one of those crappy dark web unboxing videos
Love this. Thank you!
I’ve not finished series 13 yet. I’m on planet of evil.
The repetition of "Eldrad must live" makes me wonder if they're teasing a possible return..
Maybe if given the chance, that bit of Eldrad would’ve regenerated (maybe into a hand) and had Sven doing its bidding. Presumably it’s under concrete now.
@@alisonkirkland6132 But one never knows. If there is a follow-through planned, anything could have been rescued from that collection.
I was thinking of Eldrad himself, though. it's been 30-plus years, but didn't "Hand of Fear" end with Eldrad alive but trapped alone in the ruins of his world? We've learned that the Ood live near the Sensorites, we've met an evolutionary relative of the Nimon, and the new show even started out with a fresh return of Autons and the Nestle consciousness.
The new headwriter isn't as in to fan service as Moffat was, and thank goodness, but the return of classic villains like Omega, Eldrad and even the Toymaker is probably never entirely off the table.
@@marauder08901 I want Eldrad to return :)
LOL "Or just bubble wrap?"
This was the strangest one
Oh, I love this!
This is brilliant :D
Eldrad must live 😂
Genius
do I have the right? 💔
just saying. while the 4th doctor was on tv 7 years. he traveled for more then 7 years.
That was excellent.
That's a long scarf tho.
Iv never seen this before.
Oh, How I love this!😂😂💜💜💜💜💜💜✌
can anyone list all the classic who references
i get the cactus , jelly baby, wires,4
Hi, its Ark in Space, Genesis, terror of the Zygons, Hand of Fear, Meglos :)
What's the music that plays when the scarf is revealed? Is that genuine classic Who music or a sound-a-like?
It's a sound-alike of that era by the composer Blair Mowat.
Eldrad must live
Bbc just released a trailer for season 14 which is where some of these references to, so it's timely at least.
Very clever. But the fifth Doctor unravelled it so.....
That was the season 18 burgundy scarf.
Cute and fun!
Wirrin? Bubblewrap?
Wirrin bubblewrap?
Até história pra o cachecol fizeram? Kkkk
Loved it! Fun to guess the references. Also is Sven a member of the SRS? I still think they're active, in hiding. And is the actor, Werna Herzorg? It's quite a strong German accent.
Cameron Monaghan Leo Flanagan
Well, Sven is a Swedish name, used in Norway and sometimes in Germany too. So I would assume the character is Scandinavian.
@@ab830 i know. It was a joke
Haha amazing!!
Which story was the alien Bio-Tech from?
Terror of the Zygons :)
Andrew Ireland Thanks and well written too.
@@barttheanorak thank you glad you liked it.
2 funny LOL
Cheeky.😂
What story was eldrad from? I'm new to classic who
Hand of Fear (I think)
Dragonfire 👍🏻
Hand of fear. They were silicon-based forms of life.
@@thedoctorwho73 you turn in your fan card haha
The Doctor destroyed his scarf after he regenerated into his Fifth incarnation. Thereby this video makes no sense from the continuity point.
this is the 4th doctors 1st scarf, near the end of the 4th doctors run his outfit was switched to a dark red color plus the scarf so the scarf that was destroyed was not the same scarf at the start of the 4th doctors run.
the episode actually took place in 2020 right ?
2012
Zee Stereotypical German Scientist. Yaah?
Obviously it's funny and the references are cringe in the best way (mega loss 🤦) and I like it as a little joke like the strax video, but it's tonally so jarring as a prequel to Dalek.
Honestly, this is my least favourite lockdown story. It just felt too contrived. The Fourth Doctor changed his scarf multiple times, and having bits from various aliens in it is just silly. Not to mention how low budget this was.
Low budget? That's interesting. I wonder who you think is paying for these? People are making new content for free, at zero budget, to support the tweetalongs which is all in a great, great cause. You don't have to like the film, that's totally your choice, but don't criticise the budget - blimey!
@@andrewireland9061 Look at the other Lockdown mini-sodes- they're animated, with a narrator or actor from the show.
This? It's just a random guy who opens a puffa envelope with some shoddy print-off stickers on the front.
The props look lazy. On eBay, you can buy all sorts of interesting containers that would make a for more convincing prop.
plus, to get really nitpicky, he didnt have that scarf for his last year, and he also wouldnt have had a bit of Meglos....
Your jokes are bad think the scarf is more older than 7 years its centuries old
He was the doctor for seven years
@@jenb7756 I know tom played the part the doctor but referring to the character of the Doctor like compare Matt's Doctor and Peter's Doctor did 3 years but he age of Doctor was older lol
Eldrad must live!
