Nildzre oh that makes more sense lol
Aaron's poker face is legendary.
Aaron. The MVP of keeping it spoiler free. Using misdirection like a super power. 👍
and of course when there no spoiler he and ass or fooling around
Honestly one of my favorite things about these DW reactions is to see how Aaron would avoid spoilers
"She's obviously going to be a Dalek."
"I think she's going to be good, and become a companion."
It's hilarious that they're both right.
It's been 2 years no one has commented. This was soo true lol
True
It is hilarious how they get it right, a lot of times.
The actress who played Souffle Girl is also Bucky's date to the Stark Expo in Captain America: The First Avenger.
And she played Queen Victoria too.
She was also in Xenoblade Chronicles.
@@alphamone Really? Who did she voice?
Melia
@@alphamone Ah. Thanks a bunch.
10:20
Shane: She's obviously a dalek, she must be dalek
Shane: *looks at Aaron*
Aaron: *stone cold pokerface*
🙂
'She's obviously a Dalek' followed by 'I hope she's good and becomes a new companion' hahaha the fact that these are both true is amazing!
Such a shame the Actress who played Oswin was only in one episode
Yeah, she would have made a great companion.
ROFL
@@HappyPotat she would have made an excellent companion
She would have out stayed her welcome
I think she would have been a meh companion
One of the things Steven Moffatt used to joke about was that every time we see the Daleks they have a new system of government...
On the one hand it makes sense because of how violent their society is. On the other hand, it's weird that they would ever settle on a Parliamentary democracy, of all things. I mean, what even is the point of a Parliament when you basically have a hive mind and an enforced species morality?
I just imagine every vote being Exterminate? with 500 votes in favor and 0 against.
@@Wolf6119 Rooks have a parliament & I don't believe people have suggested they have a democracy.
I think this one is the dumbest one. As if they could have a parliament or prime minister...
Seriously, did they not think of making a new Dalek Emperor? Or...Dalek Shogun!!!
@Wolf6120
@catxborsuq1 i think the daleks having a parliamentary democracy is hilarious political commentary lol
The snowmen will be an interesting reaction!
as long as we play our part in it....hahahaha
And remember......
People think they're so sly about spoilers, but teasing something changes how someone thinks, and they might not go into it with as good of a reaction as they would have otherwise.
4 weeks left, crazy how time flies. The good old days are done after that
@@ErisEntropy Don't worry, they don't read the comments at all.
It's safe to talk spoilers.
Aaron almost tearing up whe she says "run you clever boy and remember"... same
The reaction to Oswin by Eric and Shane was everything I wanted. I'm so happy they love my favorite girl.
"I hope she's good and becomes the new companion. (Forever.)" "Yeah, me too."
"I'm SO MAD. Beautiful girl in one of those f****** brain thingies."
These comments made me smile so much. Can't wait for future reactions featuring this "beautiful girl" :)
Relatively soon-ish episodes I'm most looking forward to right now: Snowmen and the whole back end of season 7, the 50th anniversary episode (eyebrows!), and Deep Breath.
Elena I think everyone loved her from the beginning. It's later on when all the Doctor Clara thing started growing.
@@Kuralai95 Interesting...It's different for me actually. I don't remember having a particular strong impression about Oswin other than she was super cute and had a tragic (but "good") ending, as Shane commented. I felt the same in Snowmen. I enjoyed her episodes with Eleven but still didn't feel like I had any particularly strong feelings about her, but I was really satisfied with the story they told together about the "girl who dies". But it wasn't until 12 came along that I grew to REALLY love Clara. Through her relationship with 12, she grew to be favorite companion, and theirs my favorite doctor-companion pair. Of course, now looking back at all Clara stuff pre-12, I have super biased lenses and think she's super amazing and beautiful and ground-breaking by just standing there and breathing...
The actress that played Oswin did a really good job, shame how her end came about....
And she was never seen again
We will remember her.
Benjamin Callinicos Ik i always loved her idk why I just did
I always hated the "2000 years is nothing compared to giving you up" line Yes Amy means it to reiterate how much she loves Rory but it just seems like Rory is belittled and his amazing feat meant nothing. A different line could have been "You waited...2000 years for me Rory,imagine how it must feel to give that all up to give you a better chance" Also Rory mentions knowing she's infertile and he's clearly till in love with her so they could have just sat down, discussed adoption and hell win win for Amy since she inexplicably became a model last series. Idk it just seemed like a way to tease people to tune into Asylum Of the Daleks.
Not being able to have children can be a heart breaking, especially for Amy who was basically sterilized against her will which must have been traumatic. This scene could have been written better, but the whole idea of it makes sense. While adoption is an option, most people who want children want their own flesh and blood. It's a lot more complicated than just sitting down and saying "let's just adopt a kid". Especially since their first child was taken away from them right after she was born, I can understand why Amy would feel like she wouldnt be able to give Rory the life he always wanted
About the whole Vulcan thing I found this: "Star Trek only just beat Doctor Who in introducing the concept of an alien world called Vulcan by a few weeks, as it debuted not quite two months before The Power of the Daleks aired. Both shows seem to have selected the name independently."
Even though Dr Who and Star Trek have a legit crossover. Seriously, the Borg and Cybermen work together.
Vulcan was the actual name given to a hypothesised planet in our solar system during the 19th century (it supposedly orbited between Mercury and the Sun and was proposed to explain inaccuracies in the prediction of Mercury's orbit that were later explained by Einstein's general theory of relativity). There are maps of the solar system from the 1840s with Vulcan marked on them so it seems likely both Trek and Who got the "alien planet" idea from that same source (Calvin's close with his Greek pantheon comment as the planet itself was named after the Roman god of fire - the word Volcano comes from there too).
Well, actually, we all know the word "Volcano" came from Donna, not some imaginary god or something >_>)
Nurik Sakura Ahh... But Donna was a household god, so...
Lukas Xuereb Sure she was, but not an imaginary one ;-)
I can see how traumatic it would’ve been for Amy to find out she couldn’t provide kids for Rory and herself. Yeah, Rory showed a lot of commitment by guarding her for 2k years but that only makes it worse for her. She probably felt even more undeserving of him so her idea of letting him go was solidified. That being said, being married, she should talk about the issues together first before making major decisions like divorce. 🤷🏻♀️
I hate how shows feel the need to break up established relationships and then put them back together, and it's almost ALWAYS to do with kids. It seems very toxic.
@@strbourne how is it toxic that they in this episode talk over their emotions people are stupid she made a mistake it's not toxic it's stupidity simple human stupidity
Before this episode aired " we are going to see every single Dalek in the shows history"
The old school Daleks are in the background for 2 seconds
They tried but didn't have any/many there was an appeal for anyone who had a dalek to let them borrow it for shooting?
Run you clever boy
And remember
Be a doc...ok I'm getting a bit to far ahead.
Man... I can never remember that darn Wi-Fi password...
@@Kjf365 oh wait I got it 😂
Oswin lists locations of several previous dalek wars. "Spiridon, Kembel, Aridius, Vulcan, Exxilon."
Spiridon was from _Planet of the Daleks_ (1973).
Kembel was from _The Daleks' Master Plan_ (1965-66).
Aridius was from _The Chase_ (1965).
Vulcan was from _The Power of the Daleks_ (1966). Star Trek started just 2 months earlier so the name was probably a coincidence.
Exxilon was from _Death to the Daleks_ (1974).
You can also briefly see the special weapons dalek from _Remembrance of the Daleks_ (1988).
You rock, thanks.
I remember it had been announced that Jenna was taking the role as the next companion but wasn't to appear for a while and seeing her in the premiere sent everyone into madness, it was so awesome.
bede. Spoilers!
@@eoghank9978 they had to stop reading the comments bc of spoilers months ago don't worry!
While there's a reasonable chance Calvin's exposure to Who in general has led to Jenna Coleman being familiar without any real context for it, she also has a small role at the start of the first Captain America film. Either way, Aaron navigating things away as smoothly as ever. :D
Jess Williams, that role was too small to remember. The only reason I could remember it was because she played Clara.
I remember when this episode first aired I immediately knew Oswin was a Dalek as soon as the Doctor asked her "Where do you get the milk?", while he was talking to her from the ship.
What I did not get on first viewing was the triangle joke.
"What is the noise?" - the Dalek asked, talking about the music.
"It's me, playing the triangle." - meaning he was part of the orchestra, playing it. That's "the noise".
How to make a souffle: EGGS-STIR-MILK-BAKE
This deserves more likes
I hope once Clara become official on the show, Arron will mention how we knew by this episode she was a companion yet here they killed her off seemly, and even the next time. Before 3rd time a charm, or will he wait till it explain why she was everywhere
While I'm not the biggest fan of the Amy/Rory conflict in this (not the content of it, specifically - while adoption is always an option, I know it can still be a difficult thing to face that you can't have kids on your own for many people, especially when like Amy it's happened through trauma, and she already has abandonment issues - but the way it feels very much like their subplot that was thrown in just for this episode to give them something to do) I do like almost everything else about this episode. The Oswin story and the direction and cinematography of it specifically. I remember when this episode first came out. It was... certainly an experience, for many reasons I won't get into here.
I kind of agree with Eric that there was definitely more they could have done with it, but I'm also happy they let the Oswin story take centre stage over that. Also, I really love her and the Doctor's back and forth (and really glad the crew enjoyed that). Ultimately, I think this story just throws a lot at you, and I think more works than what doesn't work. (I have however never been a fan of the human dalek puppets.)
I'd completely forgotten the Vulcan thing, and when I rewatched I also thought it was a Star Trek reference, but nope! Cool to know.
Another thing about the discussion: Nice save, Aaron. That's all I'll say about that.
S7 might not be a favourite of mine, but even so I'm really looking forward to the reactions - besides, BW reaction have made me enjoy episodes more in the past that I didn't use to like, so we'll see if that holds true here as well. :D
I completely agree with your thoughts well said .
JojoInSpace I disagree with you're thoughts at least with the baby part. For a lot of couples it's hard to take especially for women who can't give birth or natural child birth. A lot of women can't handle it and Marriages fall apart. These are stats and I thought it was very realistic. I don't like the divorce part though because I would think Amy and Rory would have been strong enough by now to handle it. And yes I know a couple of familys in the mission field who have adopted kids from other company's who were homeless. I love season 7 and still think it's one of the best. I thought the twist was weak though and I predicted it half way threw like Calvin did lol.
I'm... not sure you do disagree with me though? My point was that while I get the emotional aspects of it, and that Amy's response here are very real and reflect real issues people have, I thought the way the story was used in the episode itself was weirdly done from a writing POV. It seems you think that I didn't think that it was a valid emotional response - which is the opposite to what I wrote.
@@TheRedLittleGirl I agree we could have skipped the James Gordan episode last season and have him re appear later on, and this episode in that slot. I think their issues seem out of timeline (story) wise. Like they went through some real shit losing their daughter but dont talk about it and than River and them are happy because she tells them he is alive. Story wise had that scene happened after they dealt with their grief I feel like their PTSD wouldnt have felt as forced.
She's Connie from Captain America: The First Avenger
The ending of this episode is wonderfully moving, the music is just perfect.
Agreed. What a phenomenal episode
@@justsomerandomguyonline2784 phenomenal episode??? you must be dreaming... the disrespect that it dose to the history of the daleks.
Fingers crossed Calvin doesn't Google "Souffle Girl actress" or something to see where he remembers her from in between episodes lol
“Oh she’s in seasons eight and nine as Clara Oswald.”
That’ll go over well.
"Hi, I'm Rory. I'm the companion who's best at dying."
"Hold my souffle..."
They really need to talk with Captain Jack
Please blur the names when they are watching 50th special. They should be suprised when they see Billie and Tennant. PLEASE !! :D
Don't worry. I already did it for them:
ruclips.net/video/dL-e3ctRm1Q/видео.html
@@LazyLono That is DAMN GOOD editing, my friend. I wouldn't even suspect they were there. And the timing between the credits is also properly equal not to hint at it.
Ah, Oswin. Shame they her killed in this episode, she could have made a great companion. Oh well, can't wait to watch a full season with 11, Amy, and Rory! :D
don't forget "P.S." minisode after 7x5, it wasn't filmed, just some black and white pictures with Arthur Darvil narration, but it's very important, especially after this discussion.
Я уже вижу их слезы 😅😢
Top 10 episode for me.
I remember - being in the UK doctor who is mainstream news so we knew any and Rory we’re leaving “at Christmas” and Jenna was going to be the new companion.
When she had her surprise appearance in this episode and The Doctor says that daleks capturing him was “Christmas come early”. I spent the whole episode think Amy was going to die and we had the new companion early. Was on the edge of my seat throughout and absolutely love this episode.
Clara quickly became my favourite companion and love series 7 more than most.
Since you guys discuss it at the end, there WAS a Doctor Who/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover comic book series. It also had the Cybermen and the Borg.
Wannabe_Baby it’s not canon or official though seeing as the Star Trek tv series gets mentioned a lot
@@obiwankenobi687, I believe that they go into that universe instead of it taking place in theirs.
i was so excited for you to get here cause this is my favorite doctor who episode!! i just love oswin and her story is so tragic to me i cry every time but i'm glad you guys enjoyed it! i also sided with rory on the 2,000 years thing and i think the relationship conflict in this episode was a little dumb, but its still my favorite lol.
8:46
"That circle looks like..." Oh! Shane's got it!
"...Star Wars." Oh. Shane hasn't got it...
btw, Jenna Coleman was in the First Avenger as Bucky's girlfriend, maybe that's where Calvin saw her before.
I love that all the Daleks, in the end, were Daleks who survived battles with the Doctor......
One of the planets mentioned (Aridius) appeared in the 1965 serial The Chase. The only Dalek to survive that encounter was defeated by slap stick. That Dalek canonically went insane because of slap stick and that's hilarious
Aaron, that's some master-misdirection around the 16 minute mark ! :)
And we all know we're in for three episodes that are not the best now, but there's still some real nice moments in them... and I really look forward to the second half of the season !
I loved this episode.
I liked the new character really quickly. And was so gutted when she died. Wanted to see more of her
Jenna Coleman is in Captain America The First Avenger albeit briefly.
Many missed that for some reason.
Calvin's dalek/cybermen voices are even on point.
Rory waited thousands of years to see Amy again, blew up a Cyberman fleet in one of this show’s most badass moments to save her, and after all that...
Amy divorces him because she can’t have kids. Kind of bullshit.
Even if you didn’t want to adopt, all you had to do was SAY SOMETHING.
They really dont write it very well, I truly think that after everything he did for her, she no longer felt worthy of being his wife. He made her go threw all of that and couldnt even give him children. she went through a very traumatic experience and they dont really address PTSD correctly. I think it the only thing the Rory/Amy act lacks is a proper amount of time to grieve.
SPOILERS
IN the UK it was announced that Jenna Coleman would be the new companion around Easter 2012 but the series didnt start until September 2012. The biggest twist was meta... How can she be the new companion when she was dead? This series was also split in half. Everything up to The Angels Take Manhattan was shown in September/October the Snowman shown at Christmas further compounding the mystery and The Bells of Saint John was shown in March 2013, but we didn't get an answer until the finale in May.
To anyone watching this now, shanes comments about waiting 2000 years... just want to say no matter how long someone waits for you, you are never obliged to reciprocate any feelings and are always free to leave
Funny how we could get two Dalek stories reactions this week the other one from Melron reacts
I've been thinking about that reaction for centuries!
My beloved Souffle Girl - Oswin Oswald... who kept her humanity and beat the Daleks!
"Run you clever boy, and remember..." - Oswin Oswald.
If I heard correctly, at the end of the Narnia Xmas ep, Eric mentioned something about the Ponds having more children... and I was like, "Oh fuck..." and thought about this episode.
And with this we have one more season until the Day comes.
Aye that we do!
Yes, Vulcan is named after the Roman god Vulcan. There was speculation in folklore that there could perhaps be a planet in the same orbit as Earth - but always hidden from us by being on the other side of the sun... called Vulcan. The idea was very fashoinable in the 1960s. So both ST and DW used the idea at almost exactly the same time... Both versions of Vulcan appearing in 1966 episodes of each series (I think only weeks apart.) ST wasn't shown in the UK until 1969 and obviously DW wasn't shown in the US until the 1970s.
This is going to be a crazy season.
And then Eric realizes the actress playing the role of Clara was in Captain America 1.
But how does he remember? he was so young...
This is a decent episode that's unfortunately dragged down by the Amy/Rory drama that just feels kind of forced. If they wanted to address the aftermath of what happened with River they should have done it in series 6. As it is they waited too long and now it just feels out of nowhere and as I said above forced. I think Oswin makes up for it though as she's great. Not a fan of the Dalek's hidden in human bodies thing, that just feels silly to me.
"Where did you get the milk?"
"From my breasts"
In the opening sequence, where Amy is doing her modelling with her hair flying, I had to look twice to see if it was Amy or River; I'd never really noticed how very much alike they look before , maybe because of the very different hair-styles
So predictions; During the snowman episode, when will the guys realise that Clara is Oswin (baring in mind they don’t officially know who the next actress for the companion is, so they might not remember Oswin as detailed as when we would have seen her).
I just had like a spasm at the fact that they got to season 7, so excited :)
Omg Calvin and I said "Pondlife" at the same time 😂
Happy 10 years to this episode!
'Star Trek': 'The Man Trap' (8th of September, 1966)
'Doctor Who': 'The Power of the Daleks' part 1 (5th of November, 1966)
'Star Trek' said "Vulcan" first.
@Cromwell I did mean within both series.
Arron has the perfect poker face
Apparently in an upcoming episode, there was a scene where Amy and Rory did adopt but it got cut in the script
I think this is a good premiere episode . The Amy-Rory subplot definitely does seem manufactured to add a bit more drama to the episode but the explanation aswell as Karen Gillians and Arthur Darvill’s performances sell it .
Otherwise ,I do like the rest of the episode .it’s nice to see different versions of the Daleks but the highlight is Oswin ‘s banter with The Doctor and Rory , Jenna Coleman was so good and I wish we could have seen more of her ...
Eh...mm...don't wanna be too self entitled here...but i think a woman finding out she can't have children can potentially, if not necessarily, break her quite a bit. And as is not a points based competition, i doubt the fact her husband waited thousands of years for her would soften the blow in any possible way. So, well...what do i know right?, i just think is well portrayed and is usually this errors in communication that strand couples, regardless of what any of them did before, grand gestures included. Pretty realistic for Doctor Who if you ask me.
I think a lot of people forget that Amy was forcibly sterilized and reacting to that trauma
They have so much PTSD and yeah they technically know where their daughter is now, that doesnt change everything that happened. Kidnapping, sterilization, etc. Losing a child often pulls couples apart. I think it is both well portrayed well somehow also not explaining it enough.
U scared to have children what they been thought
awww you skipped the "firing me at a planet" scene! I was really looking forward to that!
If I was Aaron, I would’ve spoiled the whole series for them, he keeps a straight face every episode.
I love when Calvin sings pond life like "parklife" lol
Lol Aaron’s smile when she says Run you clever boy
Second Doctor visit Vulcan in the show called The Power of the Daleks it was a 6 part show/movie...... it was broadcast in 5 November - 10 December 1966 .. Star Trek first aired September 8, 1966... so broadcast time Star Trek came first but who knows who actually had a script done first.. because am sure the Dr Who has alot of scripts made well ahead of time...
My favorite doctor who episode watched by my favorite reactors? YES!
"Is her name Carmen?"
🥧😇
Eric and Shane @ Oswin is a big mood
this was the 1st Dr Who episode i've seen
There is a Doctor Who + Star Trek crossover... kinda. It's a comic called Assimilation². The Eleventh Doctor and the Ponds help the Next Generation crew against the Borg and the Cybermen.
Trivia: seen in this episode is every iteration of the Daleks since 1963
Yes. Jenna Coleman who played Oswin Oswald now plays (Queen) Victoria.
There was a Star Trek/Doctor Who comic with Amy Rory 11 and others that was super good :)
There are several prequels to this episode too "Pond Life" which are a few short ones and another one that give more detail to the Doctor being led to a trap on Skaro :)
About Star Trek there was a crossover in the comics with doctor who at this time where the doctor Amy and Rory showed up on the enterprise D and the daleks joined up with the Borg
I like all the cameos of the classic Daleks in this one.
*Vulcan*
There is also a city in Canada called Vulcan, the city was estabilished in 1912, named after the greek god.
It's a fairly small city, with a population of just under 2k
Do you mean Roman? Hephaestus was the Greek equivalent.
I love how Arron is diverting the others since he's seen the future Who
Eggs... eggs...
Stir-min 8
Torchwood Boy is that how you make soufflé?!!
The number of people who have been on Doctor Who who have also been members of the royal family in another show is hilarious
Aaron: I lover her dress, god damn!
So good at keeping a straight face
At least the Daleks reunited Amy and Rory. They did one good thing in their lives, you know?
This a mini episode you missed it has the Doctor recieve a call to Skaro from a mysterious source. I can't find it on RUclips though.
Davros is the same species as a Dalek (see Genesis of the Daleks) so of course he could use his cells to make Daleks. I think a normal dalek would not convert even a genius human due to their genetic superiority thing. But the crazies in the asylum, yes. You guys figured out Oswin was a dalek! I didn’t, but I had a reason I didn’t get it. I’ll explain later.
I still think the best meta line Moffat ever wrote was that Jenna was announced as the next companion Clara debuting at Christmas and then this episode premiered in September. Then after she's shown Matt's like is "ITS CHRISTMAS!"
There was a prequel to this episode that showed how the Doctor was contacted and told to go to Skaro.
Pond and Clara❤️
There's a minisode of the message he receives from this woman too which is pretty cool
Aaron should have just said her like 3 seconds in captain America to trick them.
Props to Aaron
Vulcan was also a purposed planet between Mercury and the Sun back in the 19th century. They could be referencing that.

I appreciate Aaron was trying not to spoil Clara, but that was more than the BBC ever did. So for the full experience, you have to know that Jenna Coleman had already been announced as the new companion before this was aired. So when she popped up here, and then died, a nation went, "Huh?". In the past bit parts in Who had been recast as main characters, but not like this.
When you get to the 50th anniversary will you do the full reaction? Please? It's long but sos so good
I love this episode, don't @ me! :)
No I love it too!!
2:52 “make them remember you”
Me: Weeeeelllllll
I thought Amy's line about giving Rory up was powerful, because he did do something out of the ordinary, but with the prospect of being reunited with her, while she was going to do a simpler act, but in a more selfless way, because she knew she was going to suffer from it. It's also kinda implied that she didn't exactly plan to make Rory leave her, it was just an unconcious decision that made them grow apart.
The hottest companion has entered the game.
Id say its a tie between her and amy both equal goddess mode girls
Billie piper was the first one tho
Hottest, but also the most "meh"
Howard Stern himself has spoken!
Polly isn't in this episode.
