@@thomsboys77 A big part of UK's children's childhood he was. Tap dancing and hosting Record Breakers... It's a shame his lung cancer came about from playing the trumpet and inhaling smoking atmospheres of clubs.
Peter cushing was the only actor who could have easy pulled off a perfect human version of the doctor. RIP to bernard cribbins to who played Tom the policeman
@Klaus Sperger And where else can we see Cushing playing this 'cliche'? I remember him playing Van Helsing and various baddies in cinema. I've never seen him play a confused professor before. Besides which, short of copying Hartnell's portrayal (which considering he's quite sinister at this point in the 'real' Doctor's continuity), how do you think this version of the Doctor could have been played instead? The 'confused professor' balances out the rest of the TARDIS crew.
I was a small boy when I saw the film at Leeds. My father didn't tell me until it had finished that he hadn't enough money to go home on the bus to Pudsey. We walked home and I was so excited that I had seen the film I never realised how far we had to walk.
Living in the US, the Cushing films (on Saturday morning television) were my first introduction to The Doctor. It was some years later that I learned it was a series first. For all that these films didn't follow the cannon, they have their own unique charm. They will always have a special place in my heart.
I mean he could just be a younger version of the Doctors first incarnation, I don't think there's ever been any mention of Time Lords incarnations not being able to age and I think he probably regenerates from one to the other throughout his adventures too quickly for any of his other ones to age. Then again it wouldn't make much sense since the Doctor never met the Darleks to the best of my knowledge before the original series starts
@@ahopefor Alternate time line always works. Or even a parallel universe, such as the one with the alternate version of Rose's family. We saw the odd, human clone of The Doctor go there to live with Rose.
The first Dr Who story I watched entirely from start to finish was Day of the Daleks,with Jon Pertwee as the Doctor,Katy Manning as Jo Grant and the UNIT crew,shown in four Saturday teatime episodes from the start of 1972. I quickly became a fan of the TV series and fascinated by the Daleks to the point of making an assortment of model ones out of paper and other bits,in a variety of colours,that populated my bedroom that summer. The second and third Dalek stories I saw were these ones when they came on TV that year,the first one one night around the start of the school summer holidays and the Daleks Invasion of Earth 2150 AD at the start of the Christmas holidays. So they may not be "canon" but it's always been a very much a cherished part of the Whoniverse for me.
Peter Cushing gives off a great William Hartnell vibe. He's not as grumpy as Hartnell was in his first season but he has the same kind of gleeful schoolboy in an old man's body energy.
If I were to be completely honest with you, I will say I personally prefer Cushing to Hartnell. Don't get me wrong Bill is is wonderful as Doctor number 1, however his grumpiness can become rather tiresome. Granted he becomes more agreeable as his era continues, but he can still be a bit of a nasty piece of work. Whereas Peter was much more approachable, and all the more enjoyable to watch, in my own personal opinion of course.
10:25 If you ever doubt the risks of being a stuntman, know this. That man genuinely broke his ankle in that fall. They had to cut after the Daleks exterminated him. In the next shot where he’s supposed to be dead, the camera is carefully positioned so you can’t see the cast on his foot.
Love how Doctor Who introduces his invention that looks exactly like a police box, Ian thinks it is a police box, and Susan says "of course not," as if he is a moron for thinking that it is a police box.
Peter Cushing is technically canon but just not as the doctor. In the Day of the Doctor Novelisation, he was confirmed to be the Doctors friend and got the permission to use his Tardis to create this movie.
I have to say, whatever I think about the movies, Cushing nails it. I love his Doctor's outfit and I think he portrays this version well. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not so much of a fan of his face makeup on the first one. But he's still on point. "I expected it." That's THE Doctor right there.
@@garryferrington811 The explosion was mistimed so the stuntman missed his cue, and broke his leg as a result. He carried on with the shot when he was exterminated, but had his leg put in a cast for the shot of him lying dead on the floor.
Steven Moffat tried to canonize these films in the BBC Doctor Who universe by having them exist as films in that universe based on hearsay of the Doctor's adventures. Unfortunately he couldn't get the rights to show the posters in whichever episode he wanted them for. The 50th, I think. I believe the rights to these specific films belongs to Warner Bros.
They recently showed both films at a cinema near-ish to me, but it was too far away and I was busy the day after otherwise I definitely would have gone. Still sad I couldn't
Prince Charles cinema in Leicester Square shows films from the 1980s, 70s and 60s. They Might show both films at some point. Or. .we could encourage them with an email to show them. .
I absolutely love that it's "Tardis" and not the Tardis like that's her name. I also love the way the Daleks explode from the inside when they get exterminated by another Dalek.. so cool! 😍
I do hope Russell brings back this exterior design for Series 14 with Ncuti. It's such a nice blend of blues and whites with that blacked out windows and blue backdrop "Police Public Call Box" sign.
I hadn't realised the lights go on when the door is opened, I quite like that! And the shot pulling away from Ian when he looks inside revealing the interior, that was a great shot and would look cool in the series especially with a new interior.
Please make this incarnation before Hartnell since he hasn’t no memory of his first encounter with the Daleks in well the episode version of The Daleks
I always loved Cushing's heartfelt apology in the Dalek City as opposed to Hartnell's lack thereof in the original story. It's not a criticism, by the way. It's just something I always appreciated.
Always thought the Daleks looked and sounded way more intimidating in this than the show. Also love the low-fi steam from the gun. Something about it is very effective.
The picture and sound quality is excellent. I saw these many decades ago and didn't know they still existed. Rather a pleasant surprise. I remember examining the original camera negative of DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS. It was badly faded, but the owner didn't think it was worth saving. Don't know if he did.
American here. As a child I think I saw this movie. I didn't know what it was or anything about it. But I remembered it for years. I found about Dr. Who from a friend. My first official Doctor was Tom Baker and my first episode was Creature from the pits. It was so campy that I didn't watch another episode for a while. I don't know what made me go back but I did before he regenerated
Right there with you lol I started watching in the 90's and Creature from the Pit was one of my first. I still can't rewatch that story to this day cuz of how bad the monster is
He was offered the TV role but turned it down. He made the 2 movies and withdrew..He was more into Sherlock Holmes. He did the 1959 Hammer Films Hound Of The Baskervilles and then the original UK Holmes TV show. As time went on he was more into the Hammer horror films until the role in Star Wars movie. When the Dr. Who movies were made ,I don't know. In 1981, PBS picked up the BBC TV shows and Tom Baker was the first Dr. Who I saw. Others were rerun later as time went on..
@@wesleycook7687 these movies were made in the 60s fun fact he was the second actor to ever portray the character after the first Doctor William Hartnell
The Doctor: ‘This is the TARDIS, grown on Gallifrey, planet of the Time Lords; the oldest and wisest race in the universe.‘ Dr. Who: ‘This is _Tardis_ and I made it in my backyard with my 10-year-old granddaughter lmao’
Personally speaking I have a huge fondeness for the movies. They don't have the ponderous tediousness/pretentiousness of the much of the tv show (or at least the remade modern version - which is so anal its a wonder it doesn't disppear up its own existence)
No, I think that the first Daleks' voices were best. With respect to Mr. Briggs, his versions are somewhat squawky, whereas the originals were deep and threatening. If you've ever seen the film M with Peter Lorre-it is an old film but brilliant and well worth a watch-there is a scene at the start where a news vendor is running along a street while shouting, alerting the public to the latest headlines: another child murdered by an unknown killer; the vendor is German and his voice is harsh, alarming. On hearing him, I immediately thought "Daleks". Of course, the Daleks were to some extent based on ( then ) recent memories of the war and the Nazis in particular but this actor's voice could easily have been used in the t.v. series. Perhaps the Daleks should have been voiced by former German N.C.Os, if that mightn't have caused outrage and offence😮😮!
Right I know this is not Canon but In my conspiracy this is in the alternate universe where David Tennant doctor became old and got a granddaughter then built the tardis as a human 🤔 just my theory or am wrong lol
Saw both as a double bill at the Croydon ABC in Broad Green on numerous occasions in the school holidays as a kid in the early eighties, I remember one time we were queueing around the entire block to get in, when we finally got in there were no seats left and we were sitting on the stairs to watch! They wouldn’t do that now lol! I also remember watching The first film on Saturday morning TV in the late seventies - I was sitting on the stairs watching the telly through the lounge door I was so scared, behind the sofa wasn’t enough, I had to be out of the room! 😆😆
The Peter Cushing movies were my first introduction to the Daleks. Not the actual TV series. Isn't that funny? I love and adore Daleks Invasion Earth 2150 AD. It's a film I never grow bored of every time I watch it. RIP to the late great Bernard Cribbins by the way. Pity they never made a film adaptation of The Chase.
The stuntman, Eddie Powell who played the character Thompson that tried to escape and fell off the top of the wall, broke his right ankle in the stunt. You can see him dragging it at about 10:35. But he plays the scene out to the end even with the injury. The next scene where he is lying there dead, was filmed after he was taken to hospital and returned to the set. Only his upper half is shown in that scene because his leg is now in a cast.
This is why I doubt that Dr Who and the Daleks and Dr Who - Dalek Invasion Of Earth were never in contention to be wiped from the BBC archives because they were the templates for these 1960s motion pictures that were quite successful box office releases in that era. Not to mention their important historical contribution to the science fiction genre and televised public broadcast history as a whole.
You know, the Daleks in these two movies were defeated surprisingly easily, like you could take them out by grabbing on to another Dalek and have the Dalek inadvertently fire at the other, have one crash into something etc…. But I wonder if they made more Doctor WHO movies, like adaptations of the chase, the keys of marinus, or the tenth planet.
@@adamlis9321 I agree and especially the Tenth Planet as it would also have given them a chance to show an alternative ending. Since this version of the Doctor is only Human so of course wouldn’t be able to regenerate like the TV show TimeLord version so it could have just shown them finally returning to their home garden again and reminiscing about their adventures over a nice cup of tea ❤😇
It’s a shame that New Who hasn’t done any cheeky references to the movies. Like, when the next Doctor is choosing the new control room design he could flip through past designs for inspiration and come across this tumbledown monstrosity and say something like, “oh dear, no no no.”
There are a couple of lovely little details that the new series borrowed from the movies - having the police box doors on the interior of the TARDIS (sorry, Tardis) and having the baffled human companion walk around the exterior having seen the inside for the first time.
I prefer this version of the doctor - an Edwardian time traveller (HG Wells), a maverick like Quatermass, making the universe safe to extend the British Empire
Aww they didn't show the cut scene when just after they had killed all the Daleks someone breaks of a Dalek's plunger arm and gives it to little Susan. Back in the Tardis Susan says, "look Grandfather. Look what I've got. Now we can unblock the Tardis lavatory!" 🚽
"In electrokinetic theory, space expands to accomadate the time necessary to encompass its dimension" A fascinating statement I wish I knew what it meant
Loved these films as a kid. The first movie proves that Dr Who was a very smart Human. Or Dr Who was a time lord whoes been stranded on Earth till building a rough TARDIS
Very impressive. Beautiful sets and use of colour. It’s a shame most people will be watching this stunning 21:9 picture greatly reduced in size on a 16:9 tv with black strips along the top and bottom. This shows the great inadequacy of 16:9 televisions. One day manufacturers will wake up and provide large 21:9 TVs so that everything - 4:3, 16:9, 21:9 - can be seen without any reduction in size.
You know Cushing was definitely kicking himself for passing up the chance to play the Doctor on the show. They offered it to him before choosing Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor
I'm not sure that's right, Hartnell said that Troughton was the only actor in Britain who could take on the role when the producers touted the idea of hiring him.
@@MrBannystar and he did indeed say that but they also offered it to Cushing as well. He'd gotten his start on TV and I think was doing his version of sherlock Holmes at the time
These films were amazing the special effects pure imagination through not technically the tv Doctor Who I do think Peter Cushing was fantastic I did once read an article where he was asked if he would like to become the 2rd Doctor or 3rd doctor turn them down but I think if he had be either his doctor would be slightly different to the movie version he played on screen and perhaps not unlike himself his Dr Frankenstein and Shelock Holmes and other characters from novels to one character who built a tunnelling machine who kind of reminds a bit of his doctor in The Land That Time Forgot so I wonder if he actually considered the tv version?
Fun fact: when the TARDIS first dematerializes: it doesn't make the sound. this is because it's not supposed to make that noise and the doctor just leaves the brakes on. This was only recognized in the canon series, And the Matt Smith era
That information was false literally every Tardis in the show makes that noise that was literally explicitly stated by the writers of the episode River f****** with the doctor
Peter Cushing wasn't really old here. He dyed his hair gray. Fun fact; Mr. Cushing was in Star Wars and played the one person that wasn't afraid of Darth Vader.
@@plantainsame2049 He opted out of the TV series .He did do 2 movies as Dr..Who..I'm.not sure what you are asking..He did the Sherlock Holmes TV series but only three episodes are still around..
Fun fact; while obviously the events of these movies are not canon to the main Doctor Who timeline (being as they are, loose adaptions of The Daleks and Daleks Invasion of Earth, the first two William Hartnel Dalek stories) however they are canon to the main timeline as movies; In the Target Books Novelization of Day of The Doctor, written by showrunner Stephen Moffat, the films appear as contents of the Black Archive, the exact nature of how they ended up getting made are unknown, but they do exist in universe.
I kinda wish these Dalek movies caught on. I imagine they would've had their own version of regeneration, with "Dr. Who" being portrayed by various famous actors.
You mean the completely unconnected movies that were made purely to profit off of the Pepper Potts because this is definitely not the way it was created it was created in black and white starring William Hartnell
Mildly unsettling fact: the actor playing the character “Thomson” in Invasion Earth broke his leg performing that stunt of jumping from the building onto a pile of bricks. Despite this, he incredibly finished the scene through the pain.
Will I see there's also the War Doctor with a full goatee a couple of the morbius doctors had beards in facial hair and the leader from Inferno which a novel revealed to be the alternate Third Doctor had a mustache Oh and obviously the new guy
It sucks that they removed the best line from the original version: "Your legs are paralysed. You will recover shortly. Unless you force us to use our weapons again. In that case, the condition will be permanent!"
when Ian opens the TARDIS door. the sound effects sound the same as in captain scarlet when the mysterons show their powers of reconstruction for the first time
Bernard Cribbins had my favourite line out of the two films, "It can't be Sunday, I'm playing football Sunday," such impeccable logic.
R.I.P. Bernard Cribbins. 😢

Since this version of the Doctor is only Human so of course wouldn’t be able to regenerate like the TV show TimeLord version so it could have just shown them finally returning to their home garden again and reminiscing about their adventures over a nice cup of tea ❤😇
In an alternate universe this is Doctor Who.
I love it.
It’s a shame that New Who hasn’t done any cheeky references to the movies. Like, when the next Doctor is choosing the new control room design he could flip through past designs for inspiration and come across this tumbledown monstrosity and say something like, “oh dear, no no no.”
Cushing's doctor is mentioned in the comics. The Doctor lent Cushing a coat for the movies.
Bernard Cribbins on invasion earth
@@mynameismattfirered9276 Ok, that's pretty great. I love the idea that the Dr. Who movies exist _as movies_ within the Doctor Who universe.
The Dalek rel first appears in these movies and Russell T Davies used it in the revived series and it stuck
Matt Smith's TARDIS exterior is superficially identical to Cushings so there's that.
There are a couple of lovely little details that the new series borrowed from the movies - having the police box doors on the interior of the TARDIS (sorry, Tardis) and having the baffled human companion walk around the exterior having seen the inside for the first time.
Also, the Dalek design. And the fact that it isn't canon.
@@FreeTheDonbasThe New Series is definitely canon.
@@DrWhoFanJ Do you mean Nu-hu? Nope, it's not canon.
@@FreeTheDonbas No, I do not mean the non-existent "Nu-hu". I mean New Who, _id est_ _Doctor Who_ made for broadcast in the 21st century.
the gassgun is more terrifying than beamed one
I loved those movies, and soooo wanted Bernard Cribbins to be a retired police officer in the 10th Doctors episodes,
Great movie thanks for uploading this compilation
Love the lava lamps at 8:19 giving the "scientific" look ahah
can’t wait to get both movies in 4K
So close, you can feel their fire.
“The inside and outside are in different dimensions.” My brain could cope with that explanation much better.
I prefer this version of the doctor - an Edwardian time traveller (HG Wells), a maverick like Quatermass, making the universe safe to extend the British Empire
I haven't seen this film before, and hearing the words "this is Tardis" and "my latest invention" almost caused me to have a stroke lmao
Rip Peter Cushing
Bernard Cribbins
Roy Castle
And Mike Reid. ❤️❤️❤️
Aww they didn't show the cut scene when just after they had killed all the Daleks someone breaks of a Dalek's plunger arm and gives it to little Susan. Back in the Tardis Susan says, "look Grandfather. Look what I've got. Now we can unblock the Tardis lavatory!" 🚽
"In electrokinetic theory, space expands to accomadate the time necessary to encompass its dimension"
A fascinating statement
I wish I knew what it meant
Damn it Tarkin you led the alien mini tanks to earth.
I would have loved to see Christopher Lee as the Master
Loved these films as a kid. The first movie proves that Dr Who was a very smart Human. Or Dr Who was a time lord whoes been stranded on Earth till building a rough TARDIS
R. I. P. Bernard Cribbins!
the 4k versions in the deluxe box sets are AMAZING, so brilliant picture and sound quality
RIP Peter Cushing and Bernard Cribbins❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very impressive. Beautiful sets and use of colour. It’s a shame most people will be watching this stunning 21:9 picture greatly reduced in size on a 16:9 tv with black strips along the top and bottom. This shows the great inadequacy of 16:9 televisions. One day manufacturers will wake up and provide large 21:9 TVs so that everything - 4:3, 16:9, 21:9 - can be seen without any reduction in size.
Pretty good for a non cannon Doctor Who movie
You know Cushing was definitely kicking himself for passing up the chance to play the Doctor on the show. They offered it to him before choosing Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor
I'm not sure that's right, Hartnell said that Troughton was the only actor in Britain who could take on the role when the producers touted the idea of hiring him.
@@MrBannystar and he did indeed say that but they also offered it to Cushing as well. He'd gotten his start on TV and I think was doing his version of sherlock Holmes at the time
I think Cushing was offered it in the 70s not the 60s
@@Ace90795 its probably a myth but the TARDIS wikia says they offered to him before Troughton
The Crushing movies are more canon than The Timeless Children
The Peter Cushing movies aren't canon btw
@@charlieburton5336 I know that buddy lol ! I could also say that the Crushing movies are more Doctor Who than the whole Chibnall era lol
@@claudiotamburri9977You could, but you’d still be lying.
These films were amazing the special effects pure imagination through not technically the tv Doctor Who I do think Peter Cushing was fantastic I did once read an article where he was asked if he would like to become the 2rd Doctor or 3rd doctor turn them down but I think if he had be either his doctor would be slightly different to the movie version he played on screen and perhaps not unlike himself his Dr Frankenstein and Shelock Holmes and other characters from novels to one character who built a tunnelling machine who kind of reminds a bit of his doctor in The Land That Time Forgot so I wonder if he actually considered the tv version?
-My latest invention.
-I think I've seen one of these.
Same sound effect for the Tardis interior here was used in the Captain Scarlet pilot as the Mysterons rebuilt their city. God I love the sixties.
Glad someone else noticed! Such a cool sound
Fun fact: when the TARDIS first dematerializes: it doesn't make the sound. this is because it's not supposed to make that noise and the doctor just leaves the brakes on. This was only recognized in the canon series, And the Matt Smith era
That information was false literally every Tardis in the show makes that noise that was literally explicitly stated by the writers of the episode River f****** with the doctor
Then why does every other TARDIS in the entire series also make that sound?
Utterly fantastic but my eye really is drawn towards those misaligned hemis even more now 🤣
buh that beehive. I can hear the bees inside it.
Peter Cushing wasn't really old here. He dyed his hair gray. Fun fact; Mr. Cushing was in Star Wars and played the one person that wasn't afraid of Darth Vader.
Similar to William Hartnell the person who played the first doctor in the television show he wore a wig
@@plantainsame2049Cushing was offered the role in the TV series but turned it down. 😊
@@wesleycook7687 Was he a big shot at the time? Because what I know seems a bit too expensive but i'm no expert
@@plantainsame2049 He opted out of the TV series
.He did do 2 movies as Dr..Who..I'm.not sure what you are asking..He did the Sherlock Holmes TV series but only three episodes are still around..
Fun fact; while obviously the events of these movies are not canon to the main Doctor Who timeline (being as they are, loose adaptions of The Daleks and Daleks Invasion of Earth, the first two William Hartnel Dalek stories) however they are canon to the main timeline as movies; In the Target Books Novelization of Day of The Doctor, written by showrunner Stephen Moffat, the films appear as contents of the Black Archive, the exact nature of how they ended up getting made are unknown, but they do exist in universe.
This "Final Battle" quote is so menacing. (6:15)
Isn'y it the only time in the Whoniverse that "pull to open" was obeyed?
I kinda wish these Dalek movies caught on. I imagine they would've had their own version of regeneration, with "Dr. Who" being portrayed by various famous actors.
Good old Doctor who, the way it was created!
You mean the completely unconnected movies that were made purely to profit off of the Pepper Potts because this is definitely not the way it was created it was created in black and white starring William Hartnell
Oh no the first scene when They are going into the tardis, thers's a weeping angel
Don't blink!
Mildly unsettling fact: the actor playing the character “Thomson” in Invasion Earth broke his leg performing that stunt of jumping from the building onto a pile of bricks. Despite this, he incredibly finished the scene through the pain.
R.I.P. Bernard Cribbins. 😢
Peter Cushing lived in Whitstable. :)
I love that this is a movie within the WHoniverse....
Say what you will about these movies but Cushing was amazing in this
If the daleks were to shoot out some sort of gas, what gas would it be? Some sort of toxic/explosive gas that can light on its own?
RIP Bernard Cribbins!
This is the Only 2 Dr.Who I Want on DVD. I First Saw in 1970 When I was 13.
To be honest I actually thought that was Christian Bale but it turns out it's Peter Cushing
How have I never seen this??
Bernard was so young
Why is it shaped like a police box? Well funny story, you see the Chameleon circuit....oh, no, wait.....
Is this the only time Doctor Who had a moustache?
Will I see there's also the War Doctor with a full goatee a couple of the morbius doctors had beards in facial hair and the leader from Inferno which a novel revealed to be the alternate Third Doctor had a mustache
Oh and obviously the new guy
It sucks that they removed the best line from the original version: "Your legs are paralysed. You will recover shortly. Unless you force us to use our weapons again. In that case, the condition will be permanent!"
when Ian opens the TARDIS door. the sound effects sound the same as in captain scarlet when the mysterons show their powers of reconstruction for the first time
P.S. I Loved the Happy Ending of" Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150". (smile)
I kinda dig the Dalek steam guns
