We know Ncuti & Millie’s first full episode together will be the (supposed) Christmas special before series 14 which undoubtedly’ll be where 15 & Ruby first meet, but I do agree it would be really cool if Millie briefly made an appearance alongside Ncuti in front of David & Catherine and gave us just a taste of what’s to come with them
I can’t wait for Ncuti’s Doctor. I think his Doctor will be fun and quirky, a bit like Matt Smith’s Doctor. I think it will be like his performance in Sex Ed, some people complain they won’t like it in that kind of performance. I think it’s always a brilliant idea to try out new personalities. I think giving his Doctor a hint of LGBTQIA+ will give his Doctor the spark it needs to make it his own.
One thing I liked about the War Doctor being introduced is that it weirdly enhanced the beginning of The Next Doctor Xmas special for me. When Ten says to Jackson Lake “the next doctor or the next but one”, it now works as an example of just how committed the doctor was at pretending War didn’t exist. Even though deep down he knows he’s got one regeneration left at that point.
@@CookieFoxx My friend said the same thing to me initially and obviously RTD had no idea Moffat would create the War Doctor later on. However, my mind just went back to episodes like Gridlock and the 50th. Where there’s evidence the Doctor can pretend to believe the lies he tells himself.
The previous episode established that if u go over the cliff that's your end. . 10 never went over so it makes sense he returns for a bit but as he continues he realizes hes ready to keep walking eventually incorporating the next regeneration to establish that even if he has a new face he won't forget what made him great and always try to be something new. . He's always the doctor and he forgot that after 12 because he used that as a extended 10 and 13 was a chance to be something new. . So after tenants comeback is just a reminder to be great for both fans and in cannon
With the concept of regeneration (or at least the limit) thrown out the window for the moment, I would love to see a version of the 60th where 14 and 15 are constantly swapping back and forth faces, with the plot revolving around the Doctor(s) trying to reconcile the past and the future, hence the return of David and the introduction of Ncuti. The Doctor has to choose their path forward and accept their future.
Isn't it canon that when two people meet from different places in time, the one from the past will forget the encounter. (ex. John Simm's The master meeting missy and then forgetting as well as what was basically the plot for the 50th anniversary where 10 and the war doctor forgot they saved Gallifray). So if the doctor ever meets one of their future regenerations the entire episode will basically have no meaning whatsoever because the doctor will forget the encounter ever took place. Edit: It still sounds like a fun concept though
@@nobadoba7991perhaps, but at some point I’d love to see the current Doctor encounter a future version of themselves that’s not the next one, like the 15th meeting the 20th (though obviously not numbering it, because *spoilers).* With a premise like Doctor Who, I think that sort of thing could absolutely work.
I actually never realised it wasn’t Capaldi but the General who said ‘no sir, all 13!’. It sounds so triumphant it’s out of character for the general… who doesn’t like Timelords iterations crossing over. He does refer to the Doctor as Sir a lot, so it should have been obvious but I just assumed they hadn’t figured out Capaldi’s personality yet.
I think Jodie regenerated into both David and Ncuti. Ncuti is meant to be the true successor to Jodie but the toymaker has done something with reality that instead brings back an old face while Ncuti is in a sort of limbo state. There was a leak that stated that David interacts with Ncuti wearing David's clothes (only a shirt and pants). I don't see Millie Gibson appearing at all. RTD needs a hook for the christmas special and that hook would have to be the new companion. Also, I think RTD will bring back old doctors such as Smith, daddy Capaldi, and maybe even Whittaker. Eccleston appearing would be quite a welcome surprise but I don't see it due to past issues with RTD. Maybe 14 is an amalgamation of previous doctors and they'll all be switching faces? That would be a new approach to multi doctor. Or maybe they'll come back as ghosts, dolls, or guardians of the edge urging 14 to let go and become 15? With the toymaker possibly being involved anything is possible. I don't think 15 and Ruby will time travel back to help 14. I think Ncuti's appearance is the product of a new type of regeneration or maybe even a projection of a future incarnation like the yogi in "Planet of the Spiders".
Also isn’t the only clip of Ncuti in the trailer showing him in 14’s costume? Suggesting he’s shown regenerating?? 15 even says what the hell is going on!! This clip could be entirely fake… but it suggests he’s not entering the story fully formed
Honestly im most interested to see how RTD has developed as a writer and showrunner. I love his original run, and I know he was already established when he took on DW, but it'll be interesting to see how his writing and leadership has matured in the years since
I agree we’re getting way more ncuti than people think but we’ve already seen him in the 60th trailers wearing David’s clothes. So something happens there
I think it is important for river song to make an appearance. Remember, when she first saw ten in the libary, she immediately knew it was the doctor. It was only when she looked into his eyes, that she recognised that he was younger.

@@dandywaysofliving I mean, 3 series worked for 10-12, I think it could have worked for 9 but I am fine with the 1 series we got as he does have a complete character arc within it.
I feel like that only scene of Ncuti asking what’s going on is shown and we’ll see more of him in the final special after he regenerated from Tennant again
Due to Ncuti's busy schedule when the 60th was filming, my guess is he's more likely going to be he'll be mostly be in his own subplot, being trapped in a void by NPH who is responsible for 10s returning, with the specials exploring the flaws in trying to return to a past life that no longer exists and ultimately leads to Tennant's Doctor accepting his fate and Donna making piece with forgetting her time in the TARDIS, allowing Ncuti to become the Doctor properly by the end.
I figured from the very beginning the 60th would still be a multi-Doctor episode because the first trailer showed Ncuti “What the hell is going on here!”’ I just figured we were going to see the 15th Doctor on “the edge” inside the 14th Doctor’s mind, signifying that 14 isn’t quite right somehow & 15 was who he was meant to turn into. Even if you pull a Capaldi & have Future Gatwa show up to help Tennant … the show would still need to physically show Tennant regenerating. I don’t see them seriously time skipping to get out of that. The reason 9 has no regeneration episode was because Series 1 was a soft reboot that needed to be accessible to people who had no idea what Doctor Who was & that lore would get in the way
Fantastic! From your lips to RTD's ears... which wouldn't matter since the show is already shot, but still. Time travel? Hey -- do the American union strikes effect Doctor Who at all? I am pro-union all the way, but I also want my Doctor! I hope I can get it without anyone crossing any picket lines. Sigh. Great video, thanks!
Mate if you’re gonna upload a video about doctor who can you atleast just start off by talking about doctor who and not something else, really annoying to say the least.
HECK YEASH, Please along With the other 2 videos we were waiting since Covid for!!! Please be soon for all 3 please?!!! I don't wanna wait 4 Years for it!!! *Unlike the other 2*
After seeing so much of Ncuti in Sex Education where he plays a character that is nothing like the Doctor I’m so excited to see him in such a different role.
Cannot wait for the 60th anniversary should be Fantastic!and love the fact you're going to release more doctor who videos, keep up the brilliant work mate.👌🍻😁
I feel like the sixtieth anniversary being fixing Donna aslong as it's done tastefully and logically I'm happy, Donna NEVER deserved that end, she never deserved to forget.
Fanservice?!!! He has already played 4 different Versions of the Doctor. His pre Journey's End, Up to End of Time, Meta and Timelord Victorious...Now added 14 and this is too much. And some Doctor's *6,7,8* didn't have screen time and instead give it to someone who 13 years ago, who is still playing the Doctor.
I think 14 and 15 are going to sort of talk to each other kind of like an mental chat, that way we as an audience can see who 15 is as an introduction, because lets be honest most people are here to see 14 (0r 10) and donna, after that the main audience are gone, so having the two talk would be interesting as well an way to introduce the character which would be something good... however I trust RTD and I am curious how this would go, what I want is; story, character and fun, that all I am after.
Ngl this sounds somewhat interesting but I'm concerned that it could come off like Mel in Trial of a Time Lord where we have a companion from the future but it is just strange since we don't have a clue who she is.
I see the strike as a win-win. If the studios lose its a big screw you to big companies. If the writers lose than it’s a screw you to the overpaid bland woke crap that gets dumped on the audiences.
Just noticed the Lego Batmen in the background :) Yeah I think the doctor's first onscreen appearance being fully realized would be *fantastic* :) Seeing Ncuti appear to help 14 being realized would help with selling him to the audience as The Doctor as well so they give him a chance. All the people returning to see Tennant and Donna will be curious about Ncuti more now and I assume like him, so they'll stick around for his series as well. A good marketing move from Russel T Davies if that was his plan. That being his job anyway to help revive the show after Chibnal.
7:21 I came up with a great new Doctor with old Doctor story idea years ago. Basically, we spend the entire episode with the current Doctor being helped by a terrified office IT worker, only for it to be discovered that this was a memory wiped new incarnation of The Doctor, only realised once the old regenerated.
This would be the ultimate Wibbly Wobbly Timey-Wimey idea and I'm fully on board with it. It also could explain why we're getting alternating announcements for both Tennant and Ncuti Gatwa constantly.
You make this transition structure sound so simple, logical, and good that I'm now afraid for the moment they're not adhering to this. Well, they could always ask you to take over, ha!
I like this but I don’t think it would happen, only bc the reason Tennant was brought in was that Ncuti couldn’t shoot for the 60th because of scheduling conflicts, and we’ve seen a clip of Ncuti in 14s costume (which also leads me to believe 14 is being manipulated by the celestial toy maker)
Ive said this for years, but I want a series that is 2 doctors travelling together, and the main storyline is which is the current doctor and which doctor is the future incarnation. Both suffering from Regeneration sickness due to over-regenerating. Time running out. I dunno, would be very cool to see.
While this would be a great idea I really really hope we get at least Matt back. 12 and the ponds would also be great. But hey there's 3 hours of content here I'm sure they could do both somehow. Also I do have to say though I still would like a regeneration story if they do this path. While certainly not necessary I think it would be really cool to see how Ncuti becomes the doctor we see in the 60th. It would be like those movies/shows who show you the ending right at the very beginning and leave you wondering throughout the whole thing what's going to happen to get there.
this sounds great! unfortunately i dont think its going to happen, but it would be really cool if it did. and if this doesn’t happen, i hope it does one day. although that being said, it does sound like ncuti will have a more substantial role than we initially thought.
I saw a “leak” about a ‘binary regeneration’ where he regenerates and there’s suddenly just two of him at the same time. While I don’t really believe this, it could be an interesting way to do 15s regeneration story during the 60th.
okokok i know that this is so not relevant but did yall see ncuti in Barbie? Like, I saw him at the credits in the beginning, freaked out, and then just died laughing whenever he was on screen. I really loved the barbie movie all around but the doctor being in it really only enhanced it so much for me
I don't see people talking about this, but in the Doctor Who Magazine 14 series (which RTD has confirmed canon) they don't give him any post-regeneration sickness. So I could see it getting ditched when 15 first appears
I’m curious as to whether using ‘hitherto undreamt of’ came to you before the avengers clip or the clip inspired it. Like how did you you remember Tony saying that?
I doubt Ncuti will play a major role tbh. The whole reason they needed to push his series back is because he was unavailable to film because of Barbie. So I’d be very surprised if he plays a major role in any real capacity. As for 11 and 12, I’m not getting my hopes up. I’d absolutely love to see it but honestly I kind of want to keep my expectations low as to not get too disappointed when it inevitably doesn’t live up to my fan expectations
I’m honestly hoping for a story with a meta commentary on the show. Sure you have the tenth doctor (not really it’s fourteen but you get my point) and Donna back which for many is the dream team. Things though can’t go back to the way they were. People change and the Doctor has definitely changed depending on how you look at it. (1500 years or over 4.5 billion years). It would be a great way of respecting the past but a warning we should not try to make things like they were.
Sorry, but I hate this idea. I'm fine with seeing the 14th and 15th Doctors in the 60th anniversary specials, but not together, and not with Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor's personality already fully developed. As you said, David Tennant is playing the 14th Doctor, not the 10th, so I want to see how different this Doctor is from the one he previously played. If we have the two of them together, it would imply that the 14th and 10th Doctors are basically the same person. Also, it would be very difficult to introduce two new Doctors with new personalities at the same time, in all the chaos we already know will be in the three specials for the 60th anniversary. Okay, Ncuti Gatwa and Yasmin Finney will share scenes together, but that doesn't mean Donna and The 14th Doctor will be with them, or that these scenes will take place in the 60th. I'm increasingly convinced that the scene with Ncuti Gatwa that we see in the first trailers is from the second episode, and from what we know this episode will be very different from the others. I believe that in this episode the Toymaker will change the Doctor's appearance and for a brief moment we will see the 15th Doctor, but it will only be a moment. In addition, I'm not 100% convinced that we will see the 14th Doctor regenerate. I would like to see the 14th Doctor fly away in the TARDIS alone at the end of the third special, and then after the credits, see a post-credits scene or teaser with the 15th Doctor already in costume. Here I would be fine to me if their personality is already fully developed.
Fun idea!: Ncuti shows up, but as a human pulled along for whatever adventure. He ultimately ends up sacrificing himself in some insanely noble way and when 14’s regeneration is triggered, he takes on his form. The doctor then has to grapple with the fact that every time he looks in the mirror, he’s reminded of that beautiful soul he failed to save. If this doesn’t happen, I’ll wipe the dust off my AO3 account 😂
It was pretty clear to me from the info that I got that Tennant will be the only doctor during the 60th specials and Ncuti will take the lead from this xmas special onwards, maybe starting at the end of the last 60th special. Anyway, I dont care that much about whatever happens with the plot, I just hope the writing goes back to being good, that there are surprises, and completely ignores whatever happened in seasons 11-13. I miss liking doctor who.
This idea of the next doctor returning to aid the last reminds me of a fan theory I had back during 11's final season. The theory was: the inconsistencies with Clara were not casting and writing problems behind the scenes, but clues that Clara was actually a chameleon arch'ed 12th Doctor and that the Doctor had created a companion out of herself in order to see to it the 11th actually achieved a regeneration, ensuring she would exist at all. Obviously in this line of thinking, Smith would regenerate into Jenna Coleman where she would then go on to play the next doctor who would be a wildly different character from Clara. Classic bootstrap of Clara's identity coming about because the Doctor remembered it when it previously happened to them, which creates that identity that the past Doctor encounters and comes to remember. Honestly, I like my theory better than what actually happened. The danger of fan theories I suppose.
I think if we see any other doctor it might be in the edge that we saw in power of the doctor because the background of where 15 asks what the hell is going on here? It looks like the edge to me but I could be wrong
I wish Capaldi had stayed for a 4th season, it felt like with season 10 the writers had finally figured out what they wanted to do with his character. Would have been nice to see that develop.
I remember travelling to see the 50th anniversary special on cinemas... it is sad how low the show fell in only 1 season. i hope they retcon all the sht chibnall did
You could release Deep Breath's Video (12), Alongside Series 5 Essay (11) and the MCW (10) leading up to the 60th...I know the other 2 are but with Deep Breath would be really Cool!!!
@@FullFatVideos Everyone wants it. That scene did something to many people including myself. Also, you and many People are reminding me to *after some assignments* watch some Barbie.
While I'd love to see Capaldi come back, as he's my favourite doctor, but I doubt he'll come back due to the way he left the show. At the time Peter said he wanted to continue, but Chris Chibnall wanted to start with his own doctor. So there are rumours/theories that Capaldi didn't chose to leave and that he was fired, and that's why in recent interviews he's said that he's not coming back. Or maybe he did choose to leave and it'll be a big surprise when he and Matt Smith show up in the 60th
This makes absolutely zero sense , Considering that Ncuti didn’t have the time to film as he was doing Barbie and sex education and as Millie wasn’t even cast yet. Makes zero sense logistically whatsoever
I'm not in love with the Doctor's new look. To me it looks like a lot of cultural clichés. I got the same vibe when Jo's costume was revealed. To me, it seems like the design and the writing becomes about the actor's identity rather than the character of The Doctor. Now please, don't misunderstand me, I'm very much all for leaving behind the restrictions the last 50+ years has put on the Doctor. But we didn't have him wearing a kilt when he was played by Capaldi or McCoy or Tenant (or the current incumbent) We didn't have Tom or Christopher wearing a flatcap and scarf. Each and every incarnation of the Doctor was defined by something more than their identity, the same way that any person would wish to be. All that is to say, that the entire approach to the last Doctor seemed to begin and end with her being a woman. It seemed that they had JW in the title role and ended all characterisation then and there. Really, after series after series, I know about as much about that incarnation as I did during the first episode. The first inkling I had that there was something missing came from the first few photos of her in her new outifit, but I'd expected I was worried over nothing. But by the end of the 2nd episode, I still had the same impression as before. The entire creative team had created a Doctor who was a woman and nothing else. For the rest of JW's tenure, I would contrast her characterisation against other women in the episode and each time left feeling incidental characters had more of the Doctor in them than JW did. Now I look at Ncuti Gatwa and how he's styled. It's just about every cliché going. I worry that like JW, the look is based on some misguided idea of how a black person would dress. I think this is a very important time for The Doctor and maybe it's just me, but a purple leather jacket, neck chains, shirt open to the navel and trainers speaks volumes about the mandate given for his costume. I'd expect this outfit to turn up in a Lenny Henry skit *about* a black Doctor. I hope my worries prove unfounded, but to my eyes, this approach seems to leave the actor behind and focus more about approximating someone's idea of an "appropriate look".
Imagine if Donna and 14 were pinned against a wall, scared, moments from the episode ending, 14's hand moves along the wall before making contact with something unfamiliar. 15 looks 14 in the eyes and says "run." and the credits roll. I need to lay down for 45 minutes after thinking about that, no actually, a full hour!
Me and a friend agreed that in our opinions that Russell will use The Guardians Of The Edge and be able to have 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 arguing and debating which to me would be awesome, I love the potential idea of 14 finally coming to terms with letting that appearance go and finally completing the regeneration that imo he intervened
Can we start celebrating the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who NOW!!! November is a few months away but seems like FOREVER!!! I wanna see these episodes and see where they’re gonna take us.
We know that RTD is good at just escalating the thrills (eg Daleks vs Cyberman) so perhaps in the 60th anniversary we get two new Doctors (the 15th Ncuti, and a totally unannounced new one from the Doctor's future timeline). Or the Celestial Toymaker (assumed to be Neil Patrick Harris) splits the 14th Doctor into two new regenerations (the 15th and 16th) and we go forward with two separate seasons each involving a new Doctor. I hope the specials come up with ideas like this or better.
One way to do a duel doctor is to play into the weird regeneration cycle. The doctor has given the tardis phone number to companions before and it’s had to connect their points in the doctors personal timeline so what if the 14th doctor causes confusion in the timeline connection and someone like Kate or Martha calls the doctor but when 14 is seen with the tardis Kate assume that’s the version of the doctor they were calling so we have the 15th doctor running around confused for a bit because they got called in, the 50th set the precedent in modern who that the doctor won’t remember a multi doctor adventure until the oldest involved has already experienced it so 15 might not remember the adventure until after it’s over.
We know Ncuti & Millie’s first full episode together will be the (supposed) Christmas special before series 14 which undoubtedly’ll be where 15 & Ruby first meet, but I do agree it would be really cool if Millie briefly made an appearance alongside Ncuti in front of David & Catherine and gave us just a taste of what’s to come with them
The character posters for both David & Ncuti's Doctors give me an idea of how they're gonna be handled differently & I really can't wait any longer.
I can’t wait for Ncuti’s Doctor. I think his Doctor will be fun and quirky, a bit like Matt Smith’s Doctor. I think it will be like his performance in Sex Ed, some people complain they won’t like it in that kind of performance. I think it’s always a brilliant idea to try out new personalities. I think giving his Doctor a hint of LGBTQIA+ will give his Doctor the spark it needs to make it his own.

This is a really interesting video!! Can't wait to see 15 and Ruby Sunday aha
Me too!!! The new age of Who is almost here!!!
Fantastic! From your lips to RTD's ears... which wouldn't matter since the show is already shot, but still. Time travel? Hey -- do the American union strikes effect Doctor Who at all? I am pro-union all the way, but I also want my Doctor! I hope I can get it without anyone crossing any picket lines. Sigh. Great video, thanks!
Mate if you’re gonna upload a video about doctor who can you atleast just start off by talking about doctor who and not something else, really annoying to say the least.
“The 50th was ten years ago” I almost don’t believe you, but it’s true
Please make the Deep Breath video! That phone call scene is just **chef’s kiss**
HECK YEASH, Please along With the other 2 videos we were waiting since Covid for!!!
Please be soon for all 3 please?!!! I don't wanna wait 4 Years for it!!! *Unlike the other 2*
After seeing so much of Ncuti in Sex Education where he plays a character that is nothing like the Doctor I’m so excited to see him in such a different role.
Cannot wait for the 60th anniversary should be Fantastic!and love the fact you're going to release more doctor who videos, keep up the brilliant work mate.👌🍻😁
I feel like the sixtieth anniversary being fixing Donna aslong as it's done tastefully and logically I'm happy, Donna NEVER deserved that end, she never deserved to forget.
video starts at 2:50
I knew you’d come
It would also be interesting if they filmed Ncuti's first episode and then he works on the special
Why didn't they just bring back David Tennant as the tenth doctor as opposed to making him the 14th?
Fanservice?!!!
He has already played 4 different Versions of the Doctor.
His pre Journey's End, Up to End of Time, Meta and Timelord Victorious...Now added 14 and this is too much. And some Doctor's *6,7,8* didn't have screen time and instead give it to someone who 13 years ago, who is still playing the Doctor.
I think 14 and 15 are going to sort of talk to each other kind of like an mental chat, that way we as an audience can see who 15 is as an introduction, because lets be honest most people are here to see 14 (0r 10) and donna, after that the main audience are gone, so having the two talk would be interesting as well an way to introduce the character which would be something good... however I trust RTD and I am curious how this would go, what I want is; story, character and fun, that all I am after.
Ngl this sounds somewhat interesting but I'm concerned that it could come off like Mel in Trial of a Time Lord where we have a companion from the future but it is just strange since we don't have a clue who she is.
I see the strike as a win-win. If the studios lose its a big screw you to big companies. If the writers lose than it’s a screw you to the overpaid bland woke crap that gets dumped on the audiences.
Just noticed the Lego Batmen in the background :) Yeah I think the doctor's first onscreen appearance being fully realized would be *fantastic* :) Seeing Ncuti appear to help 14 being realized would help with selling him to the audience as The Doctor as well so they give him a chance. All the people returning to see Tennant and Donna will be curious about Ncuti more now and I assume like him, so they'll stick around for his series as well. A good marketing move from Russel T Davies if that was his plan. That being his job anyway to help revive the show after Chibnal.
7:21 I came up with a great new Doctor with old Doctor story idea years ago. Basically, we spend the entire episode with the current Doctor being helped by a terrified office IT worker, only for it to be discovered that this was a memory wiped new incarnation of The Doctor, only realised once the old regenerated.
This would be the ultimate Wibbly Wobbly Timey-Wimey idea and I'm fully on board with it. It also could explain why we're getting alternating announcements for both Tennant and Ncuti Gatwa constantly.
You make this transition structure sound so simple, logical, and good that I'm now afraid for the moment they're not adhering to this. Well, they could always ask you to take over, ha!
Wow thank you! And haha Idk I would certainly love to write an episode one day!!!
I like this but I don’t think it would happen, only bc the reason Tennant was brought in was that Ncuti couldn’t shoot for the 60th because of scheduling conflicts, and we’ve seen a clip of Ncuti in 14s costume (which also leads me to believe 14 is being manipulated by the celestial toy maker)
Ive said this for years, but I want a series that is 2 doctors travelling together, and the main storyline is which is the current doctor and which doctor is the future incarnation. Both suffering from Regeneration sickness due to over-regenerating. Time running out.
I dunno, would be very cool to see.
While this would be a great idea I really really hope we get at least Matt back. 12 and the ponds would also be great. But hey there's 3 hours of content here I'm sure they could do both somehow.
Also I do have to say though I still would like a regeneration story if they do this path. While certainly not necessary I think it would be really cool to see how Ncuti becomes the doctor we see in the 60th. It would be like those movies/shows who show you the ending right at the very beginning and leave you wondering throughout the whole thing what's going to happen to get there.
this sounds great! unfortunately i dont think its going to happen, but it would be really cool if it did.
and if this doesn’t happen, i hope it does one day.
although that being said, it does sound like ncuti will have a more substantial role than we initially thought.
We are getting 15 for a Xmas Special this year!
We still have the xmas special in december. We won't have to wait until 2024 to watch Ncuti's first solo story
Well… you were partly right so that’s a plus.
Mate I WANT MATT SMITH!
Series 5 Smith is my favourite incarnation, but I’ve made peace with the idea he might not return till the 70th 😂😂
I saw a “leak” about a ‘binary regeneration’ where he regenerates and there’s suddenly just two of him at the same time. While I don’t really believe this, it could be an interesting way to do 15s regeneration story during the 60th.
That could be cool, either way I reckon we could see the two of them interacting
Lmao that leaked early
Your Doctor Who videos are my favourite
The hat and glasses have given you a spring in your... stand!
I like it :)
It was quite fun to wear I’m ngl
okokok i know that this is so not relevant but did yall see ncuti in Barbie? Like, I saw him at the credits in the beginning, freaked out, and then just died laughing whenever he was on screen. I really loved the barbie movie all around but the doctor being in it really only enhanced it so much for me
him mansplaining about stephen malkmus is one of the most underrated parts of the movie
I don't see people talking about this, but in the Doctor Who Magazine 14 series (which RTD has confirmed canon) they don't give him any post-regeneration sickness. So I could see it getting ditched when 15 first appears
I’m curious as to whether using ‘hitherto undreamt of’ came to you before the avengers clip or the clip inspired it. Like how did you you remember Tony saying that?
I doubt Ncuti will play a major role tbh. The whole reason they needed to push his series back is because he was unavailable to film because of Barbie. So I’d be very surprised if he plays a major role in any real capacity.
As for 11 and 12, I’m not getting my hopes up. I’d absolutely love to see it but honestly I kind of want to keep my expectations low as to not get too disappointed when it inevitably doesn’t live up to my fan expectations
I SWEAR this man is a whole profit!!
*prophet
Well that aged well🙂
I’m honestly hoping for a story with a meta commentary on the show. Sure you have the tenth doctor (not really it’s fourteen but you get my point) and Donna back which for many is the dream team.
Things though can’t go back to the way they were. People change and the Doctor has definitely changed depending on how you look at it. (1500 years or over 4.5 billion years).
It would be a great way of respecting the past but a warning we should not try to make things like they were.
What kind of video was this ??!!😮 You did not even mention Tom Baker , one of top 2-3 Doctors ever !! Yes you forgot all about him !!
At they gonna fix the timeless child lol
It will probably never be mentioned again
Sorry, but I hate this idea. I'm fine with seeing the 14th and 15th Doctors in the 60th anniversary specials, but not together, and not with Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor's personality already fully developed.
As you said, David Tennant is playing the 14th Doctor, not the 10th, so I want to see how different this Doctor is from the one he previously played. If we have the two of them together, it would imply that the 14th and 10th Doctors are basically the same person.
Also, it would be very difficult to introduce two new Doctors with new personalities at the same time, in all the chaos we already know will be in the three specials for the 60th anniversary. Okay, Ncuti Gatwa and Yasmin Finney will share scenes together, but that doesn't mean Donna and The 14th Doctor will be with them, or that these scenes will take place in the 60th.
I'm increasingly convinced that the scene with Ncuti Gatwa that we see in the first trailers is from the second episode, and from what we know this episode will be very different from the others.
I believe that in this episode the Toymaker will change the Doctor's appearance and for a brief moment we will see the 15th Doctor, but it will only be a moment.
In addition, I'm not 100% convinced that we will see the 14th Doctor regenerate. I would like to see the 14th Doctor fly away in the TARDIS alone at the end of the third special, and then after the credits, see a post-credits scene or teaser with the 15th Doctor already in costume. Here I would be fine to me if their personality is already fully developed.
Fun idea!: Ncuti shows up, but as a human pulled along for whatever adventure. He ultimately ends up sacrificing himself in some insanely noble way and when 14’s regeneration is triggered, he takes on his form. The doctor then has to grapple with the fact that every time he looks in the mirror, he’s reminded of that beautiful soul he failed to save.
If this doesn’t happen, I’ll wipe the dust off my AO3 account 😂
It was pretty clear to me from the info that I got that Tennant will be the only doctor during the 60th specials and Ncuti will take the lead from this xmas special onwards, maybe starting at the end of the last 60th special.
Anyway, I dont care that much about whatever happens with the plot, I just hope the writing goes back to being good, that there are surprises, and completely ignores whatever happened in seasons 11-13. I miss liking doctor who.
This idea of the next doctor returning to aid the last reminds me of a fan theory I had back during 11's final season. The theory was: the inconsistencies with Clara were not casting and writing problems behind the scenes, but clues that Clara was actually a chameleon arch'ed 12th Doctor and that the Doctor had created a companion out of herself in order to see to it the 11th actually achieved a regeneration, ensuring she would exist at all. Obviously in this line of thinking, Smith would regenerate into Jenna Coleman where she would then go on to play the next doctor who would be a wildly different character from Clara. Classic bootstrap of Clara's identity coming about because the Doctor remembered it when it previously happened to them, which creates that identity that the past Doctor encounters and comes to remember.
Honestly, I like my theory better than what actually happened. The danger of fan theories I suppose.
It's almost like Mel's introduction story. AND SHE'S BACK
10 Meta-crisis and 14 would be a neat idea imo
I'd have loved "The Six Doctors" but alas...
I think if we see any other doctor it might be in the edge that we saw in power of the doctor because the background of where 15 asks what the hell is going on here? It looks like the edge to me but I could be wrong
I am very happy to see that you had been corrected. No, sir, all _thirteen!_
I don’t really want ncuti just yet
Like I’m so excited for him and this he will be brilliant
But rather keep 60th about the past, not the future
They're just gonna keep ruining Doctor Who. Until it's all retconned.
Multiple doctors? Sounds Strange and maybe, No.
I would like to see Capaldi and Smith cameo.
I just wish we got 4 seasons per Doc. 3's are ok, but trilogies are so played out at this point, we need 4 per not 3.
I wish Capaldi had stayed for a 4th season, it felt like with season 10 the writers had finally figured out what they wanted to do with his character. Would have been nice to see that develop.
gotta ask whats the music you use in the background of the video?
Based pro union rant
I feel you the only one with thought it was capaldi that said “all 13” 😭
W video
marble hornets video when?
Don't do that, don't give me hope
Hahahaha
I'm stoked for the 60th. I've been a fan since Christopher Eggleston's run and I can't wait
Me too!!!
I wouldn't mind, as long as I see the regeneration
Side note, but I kept staring at your wardrobe. It's a handsome piece, a real antique, no?
It is lovely!!! The door pops open quite regularly as you can see however 😂
I remember travelling to see the 50th anniversary special on cinemas... it is sad how low the show fell in only 1 season. i hope they retcon all the sht chibnall did
What's your point?
Anyone else realise that even when he uses the actors real names (David, Ncuti, Millie) he still calls Catherine Donna? 13:49
Lol oops
Kathleen Kennedy and Bob at Disney destroyed the brand
Honestly, this makes so much sense. And I'm looking forward to Doctor Who thriving again as it did during 9th, 10th, and most of 11th Doctor eras.
I doubt very seriously watching the Barbie Movie Ken give you any idea on how he will play the doctor
You could release Deep Breath's Video (12), Alongside Series 5 Essay (11) and the MCW (10) leading up to the 60th...I know the other 2 are but with Deep Breath would be really Cool!!!
I’m really tempted to do the deep breath video next week tbh
@@FullFatVideos Everyone wants it. That scene did something to many people including myself.
Also, you and many People are reminding me to *after some assignments* watch some Barbie.
Wait, "No Sir, all thirteen!" Wasn't said by Capaldi? That kinda sucks actually...
there is no way this is true. The general says he didn’t know when he was well off with all 12 I don’t think he would say NO SIR to himself lol
@@callumf5013 It wasn't the General either, it was one of the many other men in the room
Ah, this has aged incredibly well
While I'd love to see Capaldi come back, as he's my favourite doctor, but I doubt he'll come back due to the way he left the show. At the time Peter said he wanted to continue, but Chris Chibnall wanted to start with his own doctor. So there are rumours/theories that Capaldi didn't chose to leave and that he was fired, and that's why in recent interviews he's said that he's not coming back. Or maybe he did choose to leave and it'll be a big surprise when he and Matt Smith show up in the 60th
This makes absolutely zero sense , Considering that Ncuti didn’t have the time to film as he was doing Barbie and sex education and as Millie wasn’t even cast yet. Makes zero sense logistically whatsoever
I'm not in love with the Doctor's new look. To me it looks like a lot of cultural clichés. I got the same vibe when Jo's costume was revealed. To me, it seems like the design and the writing becomes about the actor's identity rather than the character of The Doctor.
Now please, don't misunderstand me, I'm very much all for leaving behind the restrictions the last 50+ years has put on the Doctor.
But we didn't have him wearing a kilt when he was played by Capaldi or McCoy or Tenant (or the current incumbent) We didn't have Tom or Christopher wearing a flatcap and scarf.
Each and every incarnation of the Doctor was defined by something more than their identity, the same way that any person would wish to be.
All that is to say, that the entire approach to the last Doctor seemed to begin and end with her being a woman. It seemed that they had JW in the title role and ended all characterisation then and there. Really, after series after series, I know about as much about that incarnation as I did during the first episode.
The first inkling I had that there was something missing came from the first few photos of her in her new outifit, but I'd expected I was worried over nothing. But by the end of the 2nd episode, I still had the same impression as before. The entire creative team had created a Doctor who was a woman and nothing else. For the rest of JW's tenure, I would contrast her characterisation against other women in the episode and each time left feeling incidental characters had more of the Doctor in them than JW did.
Now I look at Ncuti Gatwa and how he's styled. It's just about every cliché going. I worry that like JW, the look is based on some misguided idea of how a black person would dress.
I think this is a very important time for The Doctor and maybe it's just me, but a purple leather jacket, neck chains, shirt open to the navel and trainers speaks volumes about the mandate given for his costume.
I'd expect this outfit to turn up in a Lenny Henry skit *about* a black Doctor.
I hope my worries prove unfounded, but to my eyes, this approach seems to leave the actor behind and focus more about approximating someone's idea of an "appropriate look".
Imagine if Donna and 14 were pinned against a wall, scared, moments from the episode ending, 14's hand moves along the wall before making contact with something unfamiliar.
15 looks 14 in the eyes and says "run." and the credits roll.
I need to lay down for 45 minutes after thinking about that, no actually, a full hour!
Me and a friend agreed that in our opinions that Russell will use The Guardians Of The Edge and be able to have 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 arguing and debating which to me would be awesome, I love the potential idea of 14 finally coming to terms with letting that appearance go and finally completing the regeneration that imo he intervened
Can we start celebrating the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who NOW!!! November is a few months away but seems like FOREVER!!! I wanna see these episodes and see where they’re gonna take us.
We know that RTD is good at just escalating the thrills (eg Daleks vs Cyberman) so perhaps in the 60th anniversary we get two new Doctors (the 15th Ncuti, and a totally unannounced new one from the Doctor's future timeline). Or the Celestial Toymaker (assumed to be Neil Patrick Harris) splits the 14th Doctor into two new regenerations (the 15th and 16th) and we go forward with two separate seasons each involving a new Doctor. I hope the specials come up with ideas like this or better.
I’d rather not this pitch with the strange situation we have with David being back as 14. I think it over complicates it.
One way to do a duel doctor is to play into the weird regeneration cycle. The doctor has given the tardis phone number to companions before and it’s had to connect their points in the doctors personal timeline so what if the 14th doctor causes confusion in the timeline connection and someone like Kate or Martha calls the doctor but when 14 is seen with the tardis Kate assume that’s the version of the doctor they were calling so we have the 15th doctor running around confused for a bit because they got called in, the 50th set the precedent in modern who that the doctor won’t remember a multi doctor adventure until the oldest involved has already experienced it so 15 might not remember the adventure until after it’s over.
I don't think Millie Gibson was cast during the filming of the 60th
