15 even has the gall to smile and look at 14 like he didn't also have the urge to zip off. I love the byplay that 15 is canonically older, but also younger since he is technically a new generation and it's like a new Timelord has joined the prey and the old one is still around to kick back and rest.
I love how we are still sticking to this numbering, when actually... and let me check my notes if I got it right: War Doctor was 9, Tennant was 11 and 12, Whittaker was 15, so this is actually 16 and 17.
If I had a nickel for everytime the doctor left a david tennant clone to live a normal life, i'd have two nickels. It isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right? EDIT: So... at 1:00, what happened to Sutekh? Did he just get pushed to the new tardis? Did he choose to move to the new tardis? Was he cloned?
If I had a nickel for every time The Doctor regenerated into David Tennant, I'd have 4 nickles, which could buy me a pebble from that stand downtown, and it's weird it happened... Uh- Quice.
except he is not a clone he is the genuine doctor this time, just bi-regenerated which i assume happened because the toy makers domain which is why ncuti's doctor thought he could do that with the tardis.
If I had a penny for every time a mysterious person with red fingernails reached from offscreen to pick up an object holding the Master's consciousness after the Doctor walks away, I'd have 2 pence, which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice.
The "new one" isn't new, its older. Time travel gets wibbly wobbly! So 14 keeps his tardis, he grows old, dies (probably becomes a few of his other faces too) and finally gets snapped back to the bigeneration now as the 15th Doctor. Well what happens to that tardis that 14 has parked by the time of his death? Sits there forever? No. His wish, now as the 15th was to pull HIS Tardis from where it was parked. Splitting the tardis's time stream. Pulling the future version from the older version. The Doctor keeps the Tardis they've traveled with and love. Nobody gets a copy, a clone or a new one. Or at least, thats how I like to think of it. Also explains the Random jukebox. 14 added it during his incarnations life.
Who's to say the original wasn't the one that was knocked away leaving the copy in it's place? Or perhaps it can be thought of like cell division and they are both the original and copy simultaneously? Or maybe even it remains the exact same Tardis only from another point in time. . The Tardis exists across all places and points in time so it'd be possible that they wouldn't even think about it in terms of original vs copy.
Am I the only one who wishes that she’d been in this episode instead of Mel. For one thing, Martha was the only companion who was on Earth the last time we saw them (and played by an actor who is neither dead nor blacklisted by The BBC) who was absent the DW companions anonymous meeting, for another, it would have been somewhat more fitting for David Tennant to reunite with a companion who he actually appeared alongside, and for a third, Mel is going to be in Series 14 (I’m still calling it that), so it would have made more sense to bring back a different chatacter in this episode.
@@jackaylward-williams9064 On the other hand, she was also one of the few modern companions who decided to leave the Doctor for someone/something better. It makes sense that she wouldn't really want to come back to all of that, not when she's having the time of her life with UNIT.
i love how fifteen basically treats fourteen like a companion of sorts. from the hug and the kiss on the forehead and reassurance, to telling him "go on" when stepping into the tardis. all the doctor needed to do to heal was to learn not to be so hard on himself, and just love himself.
RTD gave him a perfect set up to be liked too. 14th getting his happy ending thanks to 15th is a smart move. They can do a soft reboot of he show with a more light hearted tone, AND Ncuti won't get the hate Matt Smith initially got for being the "replacement" of David Tennant.
I really don't know how you got all of that from the short time he was on screen lol. I haven't made up my mind yet but my first impression is that he's a bit bog standard, nothing unique or interesting just yet. I really genuinely hope that he is a good actor, and wasn't just chosen for being black and queer, but the last few series of the show (plus those cringe pronoun moments in the first special) make me really worried.
I like how there are now two TARDISes (TARDI?), and Tennant immediately goes "this one has a jukebox, that's his, mine is the other one". Gotta say though, it would've been REALLY awkward if the whole mallet thing hadn't worked.
I've just realised, 10 once told Wilf something like "I die and some new man saunters away, but he's not me", but it takes four regenerations before he realises that not only does he actually live to literally see it happen, it actually turns out to be something that makes him incredibly happy. And I love that :)
I think it's funny how this is something that people who aren't fans of 10 have always criticized. That his view on regeneration kinda sours the longevity of the show by retroactively making each one a death that they didn't want. And some people were hoping 14's ending would "fix" that by having him accept change and move on. And Russel just didn't do that, he doubled down in a roundabout way that I find funny and insanely bold (in a good way). 10/14's "good ending" isn't accepting death like some people hoped it would be, but actually getting to live his life to the fullest while passing the torch to his literal next version. This way regeneration remains weighty and scary like RTD usually writes it, without overwriting all the character development the doctor went through in the Moffat and Chibnall eras, instead of treating it like "vanity" like what 11 says in Time of the Doctor.
@@mega20able Rose got a mortal Doctor who split off from the "real" doctor. Which also happened while Donna was present. I don't know which would break my heart more, if 14 died of old age or wound up in some sort of loop coming back to regenerate into 15.
I love how this doctor is already shown to be extremely empathetic to his previous self and other characters, as well as having the gravitas to command around David tenant's doctor. This new doctor seems to take in the peter capaldi's doctors "where I fall" monologue to heart.
Sorry to kill it, but as far as I know (and correct me if I’m wrong pls) he hadn’t watched the show prior to being contacted by RTD for the role. I’ve heard him saying that he locked himself in his flat for a couple of weeks and binge-watched the entire series and then fell in love with the show.
David saw previous doctors too and He got to work with Tom Baker, Married the Daughter of the 6th Doctor and then His Son wants to be a Doctor some day too. Its crazy
I cant wait to see what happens tbe first time he thinks Ruby's died. He's gonna go feral. 13's Mania/11's pure rage combined and it's gonna be glorious. 🍀
I love how he is immediately the Doctor. It felt like he immediately knew who he was and what he was about. No awkward “who am I now” or even from OUR side of not seeing the Doctor as the Doctor till a few episodes in when we get used to it. He was IMMEDIATELY THE DOCTOR!!!!! All confidence and swagger. Ncuti may have the strongest hold on me since Matt Smith… and Smith was My Doctor🤷 I can’t wait to see what RTD does in his second run.😊 it’s a strong start in my opinion 😏
Interestingly, if the "therapy out of order" theory is correct, it actually makes perfect sense: He never forgets any of the people he's been, so when he becomes 15, he _remembers_ seeing what he looked like back when he was 14. Meanwhile, here, bi-generation happens, 14 and 15 meet, 14 retires to live an ordinary life, and 14 eventually regenerates into 15 & pops out of his past self. He doesn't need to figure out what he looks like because he remembers seeing what he looks like when he experienced it from the other side.
@@MrOmegatronicooooohh I just got it 😂 DT’s 14 dies and his body is pulled out of space and time into his past self as 15 which is why 15 is already healed meaning the bigeneration was always meant to happen. 14 will always spit from his past self becoming 15 and he will always do the therapy that he needs to do in order to be 15 and something that happened to him probably lead to him choosing that face 🤯 this also means 15 remembers doing all of this because he did it already when he was 14
I love that the Fifteenth Doctor's theme plays immediately after The Doctor Forever, with Fourteen and Donna in his presence. Basically passing the torch from one incarnation to the next. Oh, Murray Gold, you're a genius!
@@alansmithee419Composers usually write their music closely synced to the action. The music is usually written directly to the film. There are composers that work differently like the composer of Dark who writes a bunch of music and then somebody else chooses where to play it in the episode, but Murray Gold almost definitely writes directly to the film so yes not only would he decide where the music goes but most of it will be written with the episode in front of him I’d imagine. Then of course some music does get re-used and edited etc
I'm so happy he's back, he's definitely a storyteller. I've loved the way he brought back iconic motifs like the arrangements of Donna's theme, I Am the Doctor, the Companions suite...indeed, musically this anniversary has felt like a beautiful tribute.
Ncuti’s Doctor just seems fun. Like he’s remembered that being The Doctor can be fun, adventures with friends? Fun. Seeing new worlds? Fun. Like he’s going to drink in all the excitement to be had in the vastness of time and space. I love it.
Well said. Ncuti wasn't even on the screen for two seconds and I was hooked, the guy just drips 'fun' to the point where it's infectious. I have a feeling 15's going to be a blast to watch.
What a brilliant introduction...given how dark and serious the Moffat run on Dr Who had become and how everyone expected a short and tragic conclusion to David Tennant's 3 episode return....the Giggle was a pure joy ride...
Seeing the Tardis in Donna's backyard kinda made me laugh. It's like a guest house for the elderly living with you that you're caring for. Except his house can travel. 😄
@@commanderskittles6558 With a heaping helping of emotional honesty and vulnerability; not afraid to show that he's scared, or upset - or tell someone how much he cares about them.
@@gm2407 Yeah, he's way more posh this time around. His delivery of "I won't be the one that kills her." sounds like nothing the (televised, can't speak for the audio stuff) 10th would have ever sounded like. Not a bad thing, but there's definitely a more refined quality to this one.
@@GrandHighGamer It has been the best part of a decade since the 50th was filmed, probably forgot the exact voice he did between then and doing big finish stuff. Also you sound different to you than you do to others. Because your jaw bone vibrates. It doesn't take much to be massively different for the whole accent. Also I noticed Billie Piper sounded different in the 50th than the previous series she did of Doctor who, sometimes voices just change.
This was one of the greatest prizes the doctor could ever have. 2 Tardis’s. The Fourteenth Doctor still has his Tardis and is now living with one of his best friends and the Fifteenth Doctor has his Tardis going about the universe.
I wonder if it's a fully separate Tardis or just a second doorway into the same Tardis. It'd be funny if they ran into each other down in engineering or some such.
At long last, 10 has his happy ending. It took 15 years and a couple faces in between, but at last he gets to have that normal life he desired and enjoyed so much when he was John Smith. As for 15. He hit the ground running. He's got an energy going. If he were a DnD character he put all his points into charisma. He's confident and fun and rolls with everything. I mean, dude's comes in and owns it. IN HIS UNDERWEAR! I can't state that enough. He's owning it and he hasn't even gotten dressed yet.
@@CaptainKrimsonHeart Ehh that's not what I meant. They are the same incarnation, same face with the same catchphrase, just differing experience. The gap in experience explains why 14 has a slightly differing personality in comparison to 10. 14 is portrayed as more open with his feelings because of all the stuff that he experienced as 11, 12 and 13. He had long term relationships with Amy and Rory, Clara and River which forced him to open up more. One notable thing is how comfortable 14 is with verbally expressing his love for his companions. 10 might have hugged you, but he had issues with saying I love you, eg his tearful bad wolf bay goodbye to Rose.
Loved it when I watched it last night and just kinda teared up watching it just now in this clip. Tennant smiling as he hugged Gatwa was so sweet and those exchanges, the language about the younger and the older and just the performances. The send off, "Where's he going?" "Everywhere." Just pitch F'in perfect in every way. I can't recall looking forward to a new Doctor in a while and I really have loved the last four. Just fantastic. Makes me glad for this whole team of writers, creators, and actors. Can't wait for the ride ahead!!
Everything from the Bi-generation and to the end of the episode just had me sitting there with the biggest grin on my face. The whole thing was bloody brilliant. :D
I don’t like to count my chickens before they hatch but from what little we’ve seen of this Fifteenth Doctor (And Gatwa’s enthusiasm) there is a lot to look forward to this Christmas and beyond. I still want a little of the grumpy old Doctor, but this fresh face looks great fun!
@@potsdam28Which means when the Doctor first met the Toymaker, the Toymaker could have simply snapped his fingers to create another. But the Toymaker wanted the original TARDIS instead of a mere copy. In this case though, the second TARDIS is a prize and thus just as valuable as the original.
@@toddkes5890 ...What if the Tardis "duplicating" was actually the exact same as the Doctor's bigeneration, and Fifteen's "doubled" Tardis is literally just the future self of Fourteen's original, the same way Fifteen himself is Fourteen's future, brought back in time by the Toymaker's magic? Maybe, in the same way fans theorize Fourteen's future regeneration will be just him "poofing out of existence" as he's pulled back in time mid-regen to become Fifteen, his (original) Tardis will likewise also be dragged back in time to "be doubled" at this moment? ...I guess Fourteen never changes the desktop again, or maybe resets it shortly before regenerating...
We definitely need a spin off episode now with all the Tennant Doctors together doing some wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. There's gotta be like 4 of them now, right? The 10th doctor, the 10th doctor post regeneration, the human clone doctor, and the 14th doctor.
You have to remember, Ten NEVER got his reward, so in a way, he got a second chance to redo the things he did wrong like the chance to give Donna's memory back to her in The End of Time, as well as settling down and being a family, which makes the whole "I need a mate!" quote even funnier.
He did, actually. The Doctor settled down with River for twenty four years, then subsequently did the same with Missy for decades. This time it's different because the Doctor isn't facing a looming deadline, or working on a project. He simply let go of everything, all his worries and fears, and just rested. Nothing to do, nowhere to go, nobody to fight. Just stop and rest.
There's something amazing about seeing The Doctor hug one of his own previous incarnations, and then telling them "I love you". I'm not sold on bigeneration as a concept, especially with how messy it is, but god damn do they make it work with wonderful moments like this
That jukebox is a nice addition although I hope it's not gonna be the only addition. The only thing I don't like about the new Console Room is that it's too empty. What I'm thinking is, it would be really fun and cute if the Tardis got new things inside it after every adventure. Sort of like a souvenir of every new place the Doctor's been to!
I've always wished for that! I think we've seen some companions who keep souvenirs from their adventures, but would be much fun to see what the Doctor would collect.
I like bigeneration ad it explains how the Doctor becomes the Curator of the London Art Gallery and explains what he meant when he told Matt Smith he'd be revisiting a few old faces
The 14th doctor is now somewhat like the watcher. And he will eventually go back to that moment and become 15. He is just taking a break. 15 is fine because 14 fixed himself. It's still the same person.
14 will go out and live his life and probably seemingly meet a tragic end but as he closes his eyes and takes those final breaths he wont wake up where he fell instead his eyes will open as he forces his way out of David's chest... or probably something like that @@spl0fy
3:44 It’s just So Heartbreaking and heartwarming how There’s two doctors now, and I just really love how 14 was looking so proud and Afraid of what 15 will be doing after he Left to Explore the universe and I feel like there’s A HUGE part for that Because Something tells me that 14 is afraid of what Will happen to 15, but trust me 14 he’s not doing it alone this time
So far, Ncuti is the only Doctor whose smile feels genuine to me. Matt and Peter felt goofy to me. Like their smiles were just to make their companion feel at ease or to show they're in control of the situation. Ncuti just looks unbothered, moisturized, and ripe for new trauma.
yes, he left Fourteen to heal and address the trauma the way trauma should be addressed, not by running away or running toward things while leaving things behind, but with an actual support system of family and friends. It's no wonder Fifteen has a different energy.
I'm very much in the camp that thinks this made sense. After centuries of death, destruction and pain, I like the idea of a Doctor that can take things a bit easier and give his life a healthy balance. An older version of Ten being the one to enjoy that is the cherry on the cake. 😊
Yes and no time lord live a shit tonn number of years.... At max he spends a few years watching every one slowly dying of old age around them then flies off a coffee break
Honestly does it have to make sense why are there people so obsessed with over analyzing everything we all need to just learn to enjoy the ride if we don't we'll never be happy again so let's all sit back relax grab a drink and some fish fingers and custard and have some fun
i'm in the "i just started watching so i don't know the overarching lore enough to judge whether this makes sense but it's a good conclusion for a character arc and also why are we hung up on whether something makes sense in a show with time traveling aliens" camp
I wept tears of delight. 14 literally won it all! He has his TARDIS, and a family now. Everything his hearts desire! He can take all the time he needs to rest and recuperate after centuries of fighting the good fight. Meanwhile, 15 starts fresh and renewed to take up the mantle. This is everything I could ever hope for in Doctor Who!
It makes so much sense to on why 15 acts so bright and hopeful! The previous incarnation could fully rest for a lifetime. Would do great wonders to the Doctor's mental health and mental stability.
I find it funny how the 14th Doctor inspects the new TARDIS but seemingly decides he wants to keep the old one. Also I really like the idea of the Doctor as before keeps travelling the universe with a new face but his former-self gets time off to take a break and I guess when 14 regenerates into 15 it somehow will straighten the timeline which got split-apart through their bi-generation as the 15th Doctor is an incarnation of the Doctor who had time to heal but popped in earlier in existence.
@@Mrtrainlover679 And just to keep things neat and tidy, I imagine his TARDIS will get pulled back to this moment to become the duplicate that 15 rides off in at the end.
@@podcastlvr5689 I heard that, too and it would make sense. So far it was called "Series" right? But after this special it really feels like a Reboot of some sort so the right timing to start with "Season 1".
There's something kinda funny about the idea that canonically now there's full on two Doctors running around at the same time constantly, that's bound to give some of the Doc's enemies nightmares
Three Doctors were the Time Lords nightmares all true at once, 13 caused the daleks to ignore all other distractions and attempt to vaporise Gallifrey before they were destroyed.
Okay, so I haven't watched the specials but I think I got this figured out: -Toymaster makes them bi-regenerate because their previous 2 games were done with different iterations. -They win together. -14's wish destroys the Toymaster (effectively, I don't remember what actually happens because I read this online). -15's wish is a duplicate TARDIS. -14 lives with Donna's family and has an extended holiday. -15 leaves. -15 is effectively pulled to that moment from after 14's extended holiday so (using random numbers) 14 is still like 2000 years old and 15 is now like 2100 years old and regenerated through time to that moment, so TECHNICALLY speaking, you could assume that the TARDIS is the same one too and he really just pulled it through time to now (if you like).
3:20 Tennant's Doctor always hated salutes, but it was usually in the context of rolling his eyes at government procedures. But as a blessing to his successor, it fits.
I doubt they'd have the budget for it, but I kinda wish Tennant's TARDIS interior was his old "desktop theme." Just one more time, for old times' sake.
Love how he gets to retire with a family. 10 and 14 loved the companions, so it makes the most sense for this doctor to return and spend his time with them. Could even set up a spin off show 👀 Who knows, maybe he can infinitely regenerate into Tennant too or become the Curator. I don't think the theory about him becoming 15 eventually in a time loop thing because 14 is still around and is active and time can be rewritten. 15 just has his memories that are going to happen My theory is 14 stays 14 forever and doesn't change his face if he regenerates. Or he does change his face and there's actually 2 Doctors active exploring the universe, but this Doctor just does it on rare occasions since he's based with his companions. I actually love the idea of 2 Doctors roaming about though haha.
There are, in effect, now two Doctors. 14 cannot regenerate again, though. He's a remnant, a result of the Doctor subconsciously siphoning off all of his guilt and fears. That's why 15 is so ecstatic; emotionally, he's been reborn. An incredible weight has been lifted from his heart because of the bi-generation. 14 will continue to live his life. Even without regenerating, he can live for many centuries. Oddly enough, I think that we've seen 14 once before, long ago, in the classic series. I'm looking forward to seeing if my theory is right.
@Cailus3542 that's just something you made up, there's nothing that says 14 won't Regenerate. Plus, 14 has to Regenerate at some point so that the Version of 15 that Bi-Generated out of 14 can come into existence...
I’m already so in love with this new theme - it just feels like the 15th is taking a victory lap everytime I hear it with that jumpy orchestra and the choir 🫶
14 is like "Oh, you redecorated....i don't like it" and quickly takes the one without the Jukebox :P Some People hate it, the majority love it, the whole end is just wonderful, everyone who loved David Tennant (like me) and Donna are getting their Happy Ending for the two. While Ncuti provides us with more adventures! (and 15th Theme SCREAMS adventure, such a amazing new piece from Murray Gold!)
I have seen somewhere between 0 and 2 people complain about the bi-generation. I'm astonished there hasn't been more pushback, but I couldn't be happier that there isn't.
@@peterpinsent9028 you don’t say 🙄 it’s the delivery of the line, not what “someone else has written” 🙄 you do realise people act what other people have written, do you?
Genuinely feel we're building to something bigger with 14 still upon us, could tie into whoever the big bad is for Ncuti, but regardless The Giggle was something else.
You're not the Doctor officially until you tell people not to forget to like and subscribe to the official Doctor Who Channel. Welcome to the family 15! 🎉
@@moviefan005 Yes all the classic Doctors said don't forget to subscribe to the official Doctor Who youtube channel. RUclips was really big in the 60s.
I remember one of the big problems Tennant saw with him being the Doctor again when they filmed the Day of the Doctor was thinking they could no longer get his hair to stay up. Seems that problem has been solved, so looking forward to seeing him in the next decade-special!
The Doctor's prize is he gets the day to day life on Earth that the 3rd Doctor had and the 4th Doctor got bored of and left. Some people don't know when they are well off.
Onboard the TARDIS is a machine that can create almost anything. From hot chocolate to phaser guns. Imagine the good that could come from a full time Doctor living on earth.

Him trying to zip off without letting everyone know is what really make me 100% go: "Yep, he's the Doctor, alright!"
15 even has the gall to smile and look at 14 like he didn't also have the urge to zip off.

I love his quiet little "I am _so_ sorry" to the Tardis after he smacks the new one out with the big mallet.
The "new one" isn't new, its older. Time travel gets wibbly wobbly!
So 14 keeps his tardis, he grows old, dies (probably becomes a few of his other faces too) and finally gets snapped back to the bigeneration now as the 15th Doctor.
Well what happens to that tardis that 14 has parked by the time of his death? Sits there forever? No. His wish, now as the 15th was to pull HIS Tardis from where it was parked. Splitting the tardis's time stream. Pulling the future version from the older version.
The Doctor keeps the Tardis they've traveled with and love. Nobody gets a copy, a clone or a new one.
Or at least, thats how I like to think of it. Also explains the Random jukebox. 14 added it during his incarnations life.
That's neat ! And it's supported by the line "i'am fine because you fixed yourself"
but there's still no chairs tho
Who's to say the original wasn't the one that was knocked away leaving the copy in it's place? Or perhaps it can be thought of like cell division and they are both the original and copy simultaneously? Or maybe even it remains the exact same Tardis only from another point in time.

Very well put.
Only one person could ever have reassured the Doctor that it was finally okay to let the burdens go: the Doctor.
I dont particularly like that to be honest, it makes them feel like sepeate people, when the doctor is the doctor!

RTD gave him a perfect set up to be liked too. 14th getting his happy ending thanks to 15th is a smart move. They can do a soft reboot of he show with a more light hearted tone, AND Ncuti won't get the hate Matt Smith initially got for being the "replacement" of David Tennant.
I really don't know how you got all of that from the short time he was on screen lol.
I haven't made up my mind yet but my first impression is that he's a bit bog standard, nothing unique or interesting just yet.
I really genuinely hope that he is a good actor, and wasn't just chosen for being black and queer, but the last few series of the show (plus those cringe pronoun moments in the first special) make me really worried.
How do you know that? All you have seen him do is catch a ball and hit the tardis with a hammer so it became two 😅
Me too
He automatically stole the show 💙 I’m excited for the future of Doctor Who
I like how there are now two TARDISes (TARDI?), and Tennant immediately goes "this one has a jukebox, that's his, mine is the other one".
Gotta say though, it would've been REALLY awkward if the whole mallet thing hadn't worked.
I've just realised, 10 once told Wilf something like "I die and some new man saunters away, but he's not me", but it takes four regenerations before he realises that not only does he actually live to literally see it happen, it actually turns out to be something that makes him incredibly happy. And I love that :)
@@brewster_4 true, 10 had a lot of angst that 14 has since worked through, and I'm glad they addressed that :)
@@ACtheLegendto be fair, as far as 10 was concerned he was down to his last regeneration (retroactively speaking of course)
@@creed8712 good point :)
I think it's funny how this is something that people who aren't fans of 10 have always criticized. That his view on regeneration kinda sours the longevity of the show by retroactively making each one a death that they didn't want. And some people were hoping 14's ending would "fix" that by having him accept change and move on.
And Russel just didn't do that, he doubled down in a roundabout way that I find funny and insanely bold (in a good way). 10/14's "good ending" isn't accepting death like some people hoped it would be, but actually getting to live his life to the fullest while passing the torch to his literal next version. This way regeneration remains weighty and scary like RTD usually writes it, without overwriting all the character development the doctor went through in the Moffat and Chibnall eras, instead of treating it like "vanity" like what 11 says in Time of the Doctor.
@@mega20able Rose got a mortal Doctor who split off from the "real" doctor. Which also happened while Donna was present. I don't know which would break my heart more, if 14 died of old age or wound up in some sort of loop coming back to regenerate into 15.
I love how this doctor is already shown to be extremely empathetic to his previous self and other characters, as well as having the gravitas to command around David tenant's doctor. This new doctor seems to take in the peter capaldi's doctors "where I fall" monologue to heart.
gravitas?

It’s so sweet seeing him hug 14 and Donna knowing Ncuti grew up watching the two of them on TV.
Thats so wholesome
Sorry to kill it, but as far as I know (and correct me if I’m wrong pls) he hadn’t watched the show prior to being contacted by RTD for the role. I’ve heard him saying that he locked himself in his flat for a couple of weeks and binge-watched the entire series and then fell in love with the show.
Absolutely. Judging what we´ve seen, he has potential to be one of the best. I haven't been this excited in years! @SaraLanc3

His mannerisms from 2:51 to 3:15 tell me everything I need to know to get me on board.
I cant wait to see what happens tbe first time he thinks Ruby's died.
He's gonna go feral. 13's Mania/11's pure rage combined and it's gonna be glorious. 🍀
I love how he is immediately the Doctor. It felt like he immediately knew who he was and what he was about. No awkward “who am I now” or even from OUR side of not seeing the Doctor as the Doctor till a few episodes in when we get used to it. He was IMMEDIATELY THE DOCTOR!!!!! All confidence and swagger. Ncuti may have the strongest hold on me since Matt Smith… and Smith was My Doctor🤷 I can’t wait to see what RTD does in his second run.😊 it’s a strong start in my opinion 😏
Well when the actor is actually a fan of the show it shows through in the character they craft. And the opposite is true as well.
I loved the Doctors scarred by the time war, but I also love this new self-assured one. Always good to see a broken man heal himself
Same here. Smith was my Doctor, but I’m almost certain Ncuti may take his place.
Interestingly, if the "therapy out of order" theory is correct, it actually makes perfect sense: He never forgets any of the people he's been, so when he becomes 15, he _remembers_ seeing what he looked like back when he was 14. Meanwhile, here, bi-generation happens, 14 and 15 meet, 14 retires to live an ordinary life, and 14 eventually regenerates into 15 & pops out of his past self. He doesn't need to figure out what he looks like because he remembers seeing what he looks like when he experienced it from the other side.
@@MrOmegatronicooooohh I just got it 😂 DT’s 14 dies and his body is pulled out of space and time into his past self as 15 which is why 15 is already healed meaning the bigeneration was always meant to happen. 14 will always spit from his past self becoming 15 and he will always do the therapy that he needs to do in order to be 15 and something that happened to him probably lead to him choosing that face 🤯 this also means 15 remembers doing all of this because he did it already when he was 14
I love that the Fifteenth Doctor's theme plays immediately after The Doctor Forever, with Fourteen and Donna in his presence. Basically passing the torch from one incarnation to the next. Oh, Murray Gold, you're a genius!
You've said this on every video. Although i definitely agree 😂
Does Murray decide when the songs play in the episodes?
He's just the composer isn't he? (not meant as a diminutive "just" to be clear)
@@alansmithee419Composers usually write their music closely synced to the action. The music is usually written directly to the film. There are composers that work differently like the composer of Dark who writes a bunch of music and then somebody else chooses where to play it in the episode, but Murray Gold almost definitely writes directly to the film so yes not only would he decide where the music goes but most of it will be written with the episode in front of him I’d imagine. Then of course some music does get re-used and edited etc
I'm so happy he's back, he's definitely a storyteller. I've loved the way he brought back iconic motifs like the arrangements of Donna's theme, I Am the Doctor, the Companions suite...indeed, musically this anniversary has felt like a beautiful tribute.
i cant wait for the 16,17,18,19,20 wow more doctors to come this series will be even longer .
Ncuti’s Doctor just seems fun. Like he’s remembered that being The Doctor can be fun, adventures with friends? Fun. Seeing new worlds? Fun. Like he’s going to drink in all the excitement to be had in the vastness of time and space.
I love it.
Well said.
Ncuti wasn't even on the screen for two seconds and I was hooked, the guy just drips 'fun' to the point where it's infectious.
I have a feeling 15's going to be a blast to watch.
You can tell he's no longer burdened by the Time War, or the question if he's a good man. I'm loving it.
It also makes sense that he's so excited because of the break the 14th Doctor is taking
I'm so excited for his run as the Doctor!
What a brilliant introduction...given how dark and serious the Moffat run on Dr Who had become and how everyone expected a short and tragic conclusion to David Tennant's 3 episode return....the Giggle was a pure joy ride...
Seeing the Tardis in Donna's backyard kinda made me laugh. It's like a guest house for the elderly living with you that you're caring for. Except his house can travel. 😄
And his house is bigger than yours. (On the inside)
Knowing that the TARDIS now has a wheelchair ramp, who else thinks that Fourteen and Wilf are roommates now?

Was looking for someone else to notice
His Doctor accent is noticably different this time around in general. Probably just the older vocal chords.
that was just ADR
@@gm2407 Yeah, he's way more posh this time around. His delivery of "I won't be the one that kills her." sounds like nothing the (televised, can't speak for the audio stuff) 10th would have ever sounded like. Not a bad thing, but there's definitely a more refined quality to this one.
@@GrandHighGamer It has been the best part of a decade since the 50th was filmed, probably forgot the exact voice he did between then and doing big finish stuff. Also you sound different to you than you do to others. Because your jaw bone vibrates. It doesn't take much to be massively different for the whole accent. Also I noticed Billie Piper sounded different in the 50th than the previous series she did of Doctor who, sometimes voices just change.
This was one of the greatest prizes the doctor could ever have. 2 Tardis’s. The Fourteenth Doctor still has his Tardis and is now living with one of his best friends and the Fifteenth Doctor has his Tardis going about the universe.

@@senonimoustv2497Different incarnations, same face 😊
@@CaptainKrimsonHeart Ehh that's not what I meant. They are the same incarnation, same face with the same catchphrase, just differing experience. The gap in experience explains why 14 has a slightly differing personality in comparison to 10. 14 is portrayed as more open with his feelings because of all the stuff that he experienced as 11, 12 and 13. He had long term relationships with Amy and Rory, Clara and River which forced him to open up more.
One notable thing is how comfortable 14 is with verbally expressing his love for his companions. 10 might have hugged you, but he had issues with saying I love you, eg his tearful bad wolf bay goodbye to Rose.
Okay, that theme that starts at 2:07 -- is that going to be the new motif for 15? Because if so, I really really like it...
pretty much XD
Loved it when I watched it last night and just kinda teared up watching it just now in this clip. Tennant smiling as he hugged Gatwa was so sweet and those exchanges, the language about the younger and the older and just the performances. The send off, "Where's he going?" "Everywhere." Just pitch F'in perfect in every way. I can't recall looking forward to a new Doctor in a while and I really have loved the last four. Just fantastic. Makes me glad for this whole team of writers, creators, and actors. Can't wait for the ride ahead!!
Everything from the Bi-generation and to the end of the episode just had me sitting there with the biggest grin on my face. The whole thing was bloody brilliant. :D
I don’t like to count my chickens before they hatch but from what little we’ve seen of this Fifteenth Doctor (And Gatwa’s enthusiasm) there is a lot to look forward to this Christmas and beyond.
I still want a little of the grumpy old Doctor, but this fresh face looks great fun!

Maybe, in the same way fans theorize Fourteen's future regeneration will be just him "poofing out of existence" as he's pulled back in time mid-regen to become Fifteen, his (original) Tardis will likewise also be dragged back in time to "be doubled" at this moment? ...I guess Fourteen never changes the desktop again, or maybe resets it shortly before regenerating...

There’s only 1 tenant doctor what the fuck are you on about
You have to remember, Ten NEVER got his reward, so in a way, he got a second chance to redo the things he did wrong like the chance to give Donna's memory back to her in The End of Time, as well as settling down and being a family, which makes the whole "I need a mate!" quote even funnier.
He did, actually. The Doctor settled down with River for twenty four years, then subsequently did the same with Missy for decades. This time it's different because the Doctor isn't facing a looming deadline, or working on a project. He simply let go of everything, all his worries and fears, and just rested. Nothing to do, nowhere to go, nobody to fight. Just stop and rest.
@@Cailus3542 I'm not sure it can ever be called settled down when River is involved

There's something amazing about seeing The Doctor hug one of his own previous incarnations, and then telling them "I love you". I'm not sold on bigeneration as a concept, especially with how messy it is, but god damn do they make it work with wonderful moments like this

Yes. I think the bi-generation was a mistake, but they nailed the rapport between the Doctor.

That jukebox is a nice addition although I hope it's not gonna be the only addition. The only thing I don't like about the new Console Room is that it's too empty.
What I'm thinking is, it would be really fun and cute if the Tardis got new things inside it after every adventure. Sort of like a souvenir of every new place the Doctor's been to!
I've always wished for that! I think we've seen some companions who keep souvenirs from their adventures, but would be much fun to see what the Doctor would collect.
Or Batman's cave.

The 14th doctor is now somewhat like the watcher. And he will eventually go back to that moment and become 15. He is just taking a break. 15 is fine because 14 fixed himself. It's still the same person.

Ncuti just looks unbothered, moisturized, and ripe for new trauma.
yes, he left Fourteen to heal and address the trauma the way trauma should be addressed, not by running away or running toward things while leaving things behind, but with an actual support system of family and friends.

I'm very much in the camp that thinks this made sense. After centuries of death, destruction and pain, I like the idea of a Doctor that can take things a bit easier and give his life a healthy balance. An older version of Ten being the one to enjoy that is the cherry on the cake. 😊

Huh I just noticed around 1:28 David's natural accent came through
I wept tears of delight. 14 literally won it all! He has his TARDIS, and a family now. Everything his hearts desire! He can take all the time he needs to rest and recuperate after centuries of fighting the good fight. Meanwhile, 15 starts fresh and renewed to take up the mantle. This is everything I could ever hope for in Doctor Who!
It makes so much sense to on why 15 acts so bright and hopeful! The previous incarnation could fully rest for a lifetime. Would do great wonders to the Doctor's mental health and mental stability.
0:40 I love how animated he is. Almost feels like 11 in a way.
What do you mean 11?
I find it funny how the 14th Doctor inspects the new TARDIS but seemingly decides he wants to keep the old one. Also I really like the idea of the Doctor as before keeps travelling the universe with a new face but his former-self gets time off to take a break and I guess when 14 regenerates into 15 it somehow will straighten the timeline which got split-apart through their bi-generation as the 15th Doctor is an incarnation of the Doctor who had time to heal but popped in earlier in existence.
Yeah basically, when 14 regenerates into 15, he’ll be pulled back in time to the time of the bigeneration as a result of the Toymaker meddling.
@@Mrtrainlover679 And just to keep things neat and tidy, I imagine his TARDIS will get pulled back to this moment to become the duplicate that 15 rides off in at the end.

There's something kinda funny about the idea that canonically now there's full on two Doctors running around at the same time constantly, that's bound to give some of the Doc's enemies nightmares
Three Doctors were the Time Lords nightmares all true at once, 13 caused the daleks to ignore all other distractions and attempt to vaporise Gallifrey before they were destroyed.
the fact the tardis is treated like a loved one is adorable and i love it
Okay, so I haven't watched the specials but I think I got this figured out:
-Toymaster makes them bi-regenerate because their previous 2 games were done with different iterations.
-They win together.
-14's wish destroys the Toymaster (effectively, I don't remember what actually happens because I read this online).
-15's wish is a duplicate TARDIS.
-14 lives with Donna's family and has an extended holiday.
-15 leaves.
-15 is effectively pulled to that moment from after 14's extended holiday so (using random numbers) 14 is still like 2000 years old and 15 is now like 2100 years old and regenerated through time to that moment, so TECHNICALLY speaking, you could assume that the TARDIS is the same one too and he really just pulled it through time to now (if you like).

Who knows, maybe he can infinitely regenerate into Tennant too or become the Curator.
I don't think the theory about him becoming 15 eventually in a time loop thing because 14 is still around and is active and time can be rewritten. 15 just has his memories that are going to happen
My theory is 14 stays 14 forever and doesn't change his face if he regenerates. Or he does change his face and there's actually 2 Doctors active exploring the universe, but this Doctor just does it on rare occasions since he's based with his companions.
I actually love the idea of 2 Doctors roaming about though haha.
Jack Harkness: I can’t tell you what I’m thinking right now 😂
There are, in effect, now two Doctors. 14 cannot regenerate again, though. He's a remnant, a result of the Doctor subconsciously siphoning off all of his guilt and fears. That's why 15 is so ecstatic; emotionally, he's been reborn. An incredible weight has been lifted from his heart because of the bi-generation.
14 will continue to live his life. Even without regenerating, he can live for many centuries. Oddly enough, I think that we've seen 14 once before, long ago, in the classic series. I'm looking forward to seeing if my theory is right.

@@KnightRanger38 didn't classic doctors also did that?
@@moviefan005 Yes all the classic Doctors said don't forget to subscribe to the official Doctor Who youtube channel. RUclips was really big in the 60s.
They are time travelers after all@@TheFounderUtopia
@@TheFounderUtopiathe living ones have done it. Except Davison
I see a few future episodes with both Doctors, and I am so here for it. Love this. The end and regeneration was an absolute shocker, and I loved it.
"We get a prize, honey!" 15 is going to be epic! Unfortunately for his companions, it looks like he brought back 10's impulsive running habit. 🤣
Omg I jist notcied that when David says "Wheelchair accessible!", he slips back into his natural Scottish accent for a second!
I remember one of the big problems Tennant saw with him being the Doctor again when they filmed the Day of the Doctor was thinking they could no longer get his hair to stay up. Seems that problem has been solved, so looking forward to seeing him in the next decade-special!
The 15th doctor feels so young! Matt Smith's doctor had his moments but this is on another level.
He really does, it's crazy to me that Ncuti Gatwa is 30!
I love how at 3:10 15 sounds like a dad or a stepdad telling their kid to enjoy school or something it was nice.
As soon as Nucti came on screen i couldn't keep my eyes off him he is going to be amazing
So now that there’s two doctors out there, all of his enemies are doubly screwed right?
Ah yes, the single most powerful machine in existence, with a LITERAL LIVING CONSCIOUSNESS gets slapped by a hammer and doubles. Nice work RTD....
Everything about Ncuti’s doctor seems like fun and I love how he instantly just kinda took over while still giving David his goodbye.
This was such a wonderful, magical episode. Everything that’s brilliant about Doctor Who! 💕
The Doctor's prize is he gets the day to day life on Earth that the 3rd Doctor had and the 4th Doctor got bored of and left. Some people don't know when they are well off.
Is that a three doctors reference?
(Unlikely, but thought I'd check?)
well, they've been through a lot since then. In the grand scheme of things the earlier Doctors had barely set off..
I love how fast Donna Noble bolts for the door while 14 salutes 15 goodbye.
"I love you, get out"
Why do i love this line?
I love how a simple change of lighting changes the tardis from a cold machine to something the new doctor would call a home
I LOVE how he literally knocks out a new one!🤣
The music!!! 3:15
Ya know, I just loved how previous companions have been working for UNIT. Makes total sense.
“We won the game! We get a prize, honehhh!!!”
That was the moment Ncuti won me over, god damn.
My absolute favourite line from this scene is "I love you... Get out."
Ok, so the doctor split in two, and now the Tardis has also split in two... Awsome! XD
anyone else love the fact that there are two doctors now that can just roam around and that tennant can just come back on the show at any time?
1:27 Tennant accidently let his Scottish accent slip!
Which is doubly hilarious since David and Ncuti are both Scottish.
All this time and the Doctor is still leaving the breaks on.
Brakes. He likes the noise it makes.
I like the way he apologises to the TARDIS after the duplication
Onboard the TARDIS is a machine that can create almost anything. From hot chocolate to phaser guns. Imagine the good that could come from a full time Doctor living on earth.
And now it's got a jukebox!
@@9nikolaThat's only 15's. 14's doesn't have it.
@@Jarock316 15's TARDIS has a jukebox, so it can make music :D
Two Doctors. One without shoes. One without pants.
God, this show is mental sometimes.
wOw sOoOoOOOoOooO mEnTaL beo
“Where’s he going?”
“Everywhere”
Except on earth any time before the 1900s
More like before the 1960s in many places.
So glad I wasn’t drinking, that’s an amazing line. Well done, take your like and piss off ya crazy git
"Where's he going?"
"Eveywhere..... Good Luck"
What beautiful transition passing the torch a new beginning.
