Dr Who!!! 1974 just as Tom Baker took over from Pertwee... I was sitting cushion in hand ... Before Star Wars, before the Black Hole.... This was and always will be my first love. just wait till you get to David Tennant
Time And Relative Dimensions In Space. TARDIS
Sonic screwdriver and psychic paper.... The only two 'Weapons' he needs
Just remember these words.... Are you my mummy?
Russel t Davies was a fan of classic who (as most of the crew were) and so there are many nods to his childhood episodes of the show.... the mannequins (autons) first appeared in the early 70s 3rd doctor story spearhead from space....
DEAR GOD - SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT DOCTOR WHO WATCHING IT?! This is a huge treat!
Yeah, until 50 people post loads of spoilers.
Actually there are quite a few of those on RUclips. Always a treat.
@@sallyatticum Mm. I note that Angela is only one episode ahead on Patreon at the moment.
lets goooooooo
lets be positive !!! lol
19:10 "Is it bigger on the inside?"
Doctor Who fans, losing their minds: "SHE SAID THE THING"
Matt Smith: I like the bit where someone says it's bigger on the inside...
@@SuprousOxide "I've always wanted to see that done properly." -- 12
😁 It's funny, when I was a kid and watched DW for the first time, I didn't question it. It didn't make sense in our world, but it was obvious the doctor wasn't from our world, so it was just the way it was.
Apart from the one who said "It's smaller on the outside!".😊
@@mymartianhome "Spoilers...."
Nobody explain anything. Let her discover it all organically.
Of course. No one wants to be the big Bad Wolf.
@@matthewkreps3352 She'd have to find the SCATTERED information from the comments
Shhhh. Spoilers
I love and hate you all…
"Something light-hearted"
Oh my sweet summer child, you have NO idea what sorts of heartbreak and laughter you're in for.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
She will feel all the feels in due time, but let's allow her to enjoy the ride
Literally saw the title and thought "ha ha ha, welcome to hell!"
I can't wait for Blink...
"Does Doctor Who take place on Earth or Space?"
Yes.
"Where and when does Doctor Who take place?"
"Exactly."
"and who is the Doctor?" Also yes
@@klemminguk”How many different Doctors have there been?
“Absolutely”
Is it a contemporary drama, a historical piece, a science fiction show or a daft comedy?
It sure is.
Earth is in Space...
"This is absurd and incredibly cheesy, but delightful at the same time." Yep, you got it.
I saw Who described once as "always goofy, sometimes brilliant"
Doctor Who, also known as, "Running down corridors: The series."
Indeed.
@@Ozgarthefighter So true. I wonder if the powers that be would agree to licence a fitness app along the lines of "Zombies, Run!" but with DW-esque storylines. (I liked the conceit of the zombie one but it got a bit too stressfull for me!)
@@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEllThat's actually a brilliant idea.
ROSE: You sound like you're from the North.
WHO: Lots of planets have a North!
Love that so much. But I first watched it dubbed in German. They all talk the same way and than that line comes 😂. They has such an issue how tf to deal with it. DW was definitely part of why I stopped watching dubbed stuff
"What were they shooting people with?" Oh that's simple.... Handguns *cough*.
Shut up and take my upvote!
@@marklittrell3202 No..... he needs to say the "OTHER" thing, as well......
Plastic bullets can still cause significant damage apparently.
This comment gets the unofficial "Dad Joke of The Week" award! 💙
Angela: "It's bigger on the inside?"
Me: "She said it!"
😂😂
Everyone who's a vereran of this show responds "we got there". I did when my sister watched a bit and said it.
I legit yelled this into my house! LOL
One of the most spontaneous catchphrases ever
I said the same thing and did a little dance 😂😂😂 I love watching new whovians.
"Heroes are important. Heroes tell us who we want to be but when they made this particular hero they didn’t give him a gun, they gave him a screwdriver to fix things. They didn’t give him a tank or a warship or an X-Wing, they gave him a call box from which you can call for help and they didn’t give him a superpower or a heat-ray, they gave him an extra heart. And that’s extraordinary. There will never come a time when we don’t need a hero like the Doctor."
-Stephen Moffat, second Nu-Who showrunner.
god damn i love stories
Eccleston is often remembered as the "angry" Doctor, but I say his comedy chops shine when he's literally fighting with a disembodied hand.
I thought of him more as broken than angry... and his acting through those broken moments is what hooked me on him and the show
I think Capaldi and his *eyebrows* have taken that title for the most part.
@@NearEastMugwump these are ATTACK EYEBROWS
Yeah he is angry but let's be real this man can go from pain and trauma from the War to pure comedic gold on a heartbeat. Tennant is the number one favorite but to me personally Eccleston is a very close second
He is the doctor with the catch phrase “Fantastic”
Eccleson sums up everything about what you need to know about New Who with his first line. "Run!"
Imagine thinking about starting with Whittaker. Ugh. That's where you're supposed to STOP watching it.
"This is absurd and incredibly cheesy but very delightful at the same time." I think she's got the essence of Doctor Who nailed down in just the first episode.
The JFK reference is also a nod into the history of the show, Doctor Who originally debuted on Nov 23 1963, the day after Kennedy's assassination. The show was delayed a few minutes due to a news report of the assassination.
I thought it was moved to the next day
It's become an urban myth about it moving to the next day. The first episode was always scheduled to go out on 23rd November.
@@iaind73 I didn't get into it until Tennant was leaving the first time so I basically dropped into LOTS of myths and lies. Thanks for clearing this one up😊
@@iaind73I could be wrong, but I believe what happened is that they re-aired it the following week before the second episode because the numbers were so low for the premier they were worried people would be lost.
@@andrewjuby6339 You're correct with that, the quick repeat of the first episode is probably where the whole moved to Saturday thing came from.
"This is absurd and incredibly cheesy, but incredibly delightful at the same time" Yep, that's Doctor who - and then it rips your heart out and leaves you a blubbering mess
I grew up with the original Who from the 60s to the 80s, and when this episode first aired I thought: "oh, it's not a re-imagining or a reboot, it's a straight continuation and they're doing it properly." My wife and I both love nu-Who, in part because the people making it _get_ the original that _they_ grew up with.
They say that one's favorite Doctor is the one they knew first. Mine is Baker, although I give honorable mentions to several others.
You said “it’s bigger on the inside” and I did the DiCaprio point at the TV meme.
Yess Christopher Eccleston era has some of the most iconic episodes. But he’s often forgotten. Glad you’re starting with him and continuing from there. You’re gonna in for a wild ride.
Never Skip Nine.
"Are your my mummy?" 😉
"but you sound like you're from the north"
"every planet has a north"
Man it's been SO long since I saw these episodes, wow
@schadenfreude5349 I grew up with Tom Baker era Doctor Who.
It's funny, wife and I started watching Eccleston, and I'd say 'wow you have to see the Baker era stuff! I remember it being amazing!'
...
...
Yeah, I ... the pacing of early Doctor Who leaves something to be desired.
"Did you like the new Who when it came out?"
Wonderful chaps. All of them.
"Is that her boyfriend? He also comes across as gay. Maybe he's her gay friend?"
As a gay man myself, damn Mickey catching strays and we're only 5 minutes in my god
lololol
😂😂😂
I started laughing so hard when I heard that hahaha, I already want her to meet certain captain
well the actor playing micky did do a series called 'Metrosexual'
I mean, Mickey's entire purpose in season 1 seems to be to catch strays... So good job on him?
Doctor Who certainly has a tradition of turning everyday domestic items into something either absurd or terrifying (sometimes both at the same time)
Yep, and now we have to wait 3 seasons and 10 episodes for the terrifying part.
Or just having them show up as props on "alien spacecraft". Who can forget seeing industrial desk chairs like every school had on the "bridge" of a starship in the 1970's?
Doctor Who casts the widest net in the types/tones of story they tell of maybe any drama series ever, thats one thing thats both given it staying power, but also makes it hard to explain to anyone who hasnt seen it. You will cry, you will flinch, you will laugh, just not every week.
It's definitely cheesy and goofy, and yet has some awesome drama. The episode which introduces River Song is...spoilers!
“Why are you smiling? Now we’re in trouble, big grin” Welcome to the Doctor, Angela
Yep, basically sums it up 😂
I’m an American who started watching Doctor Who on PBS in Chicago in 1980. The 2005 revival was a dream come true. However, there is a wonderful company called Big Finish who had already brought us great audio dramas with the original Doctor Who actors and they continue to this day. Online you may see negativity, but I think there are a lot of Doctor Who fans like myself who like old and new who and watch it all. I’m currently on a watch through of the 1st Doctor era with my 82 year old Mom.
WTTW. Channel 11. In Chicago.
@@paulwatson9486 first started watching in individual episodes on weekdays. Before they switched to “omnibus” compilations on Sundays. Started taping them a couple years later.
Big finish used to be amazing. That 1 to 150 range is phenomenal. Now its just canon fixing. Still some good stuff here and there tho.
@@jplegend98 Eighth Doctor Adventures, Jago & Lightfoot anything with Colin Baker still worth it. The War Doctor was amazing.
@@richwagener for me 8th doctor fell of at stranded. I got some jango and livefoot i aint listened to yet. I agree colin is a treat.
"Why is it like a horror movie?"
One of the better descriptions of Doctor Who I've heard is that it's like in the middle of a horror movie a new character shows up and suddenly it's actually an action/adventure.
1:20 - "Sarah Jane? Sarah... Jo?"
Long time fans - "That's not a simple answer."
On the subject of former Doctors, the oldest surviving actor who played the role is Tom Baker, who was the most famous Doctor and the one who first made the show successful in America. Tom is 90 years old now. I expect that his passing will get some mention in the media even in the US. Tom played the Doctor from 1974 to 1981. Another fun fact is that one of his female companions on the show was Lalla Ward, they were married in real life for 2 years, but she ended up marrying the famous evolutionary biologist, zoologist and author Richard Dawkins, but they too are now divorced.
Dr Who takes place everywhere and every when. Earth, different planets Space, Past, Present and Future.
You are seriously checking all my boxes: Firefly, Battlestar, Farscape, now Doctor Who. If you end up doing Star Trek or Stargate I'd die out of sheer joy!
I also look forward to Babylon 5. But yeah, I too have been enjoying the BSG and Farscape run and now The Doctor!!!
As for the "gray sea shaggy" guy. You'll meet him in due time, don't worry.
Seconded on Stargate.
I'd love a Stargate REACTION
man Stargate would be awesome and taking years ^^
I would love to see her watch Deep Space 9!
My favorite thing about the whole Dr. Who series is how empowered, capable, and "take no shit", the women are =D
Nothing wrong with women in power they are amazing, but really?! So Barbarella, Uhura, Guinan, Ripley, Sarah Connor, Tasha Yar, Dr. Crusher, Nerys, Jadzia dax, B`lenna Torres, Cpt Janeway, 7 of 9, Colonel Carter, Dr. Weir, Aeryn Sun, Princess Leia.... just from the top of my head!! Strong women are the back bone of sci-fi, so can we stop erasing the past to make ourselves look better and gain brownie points?!?! Comments like this is the reason I stopped watching everything. New entertainment/entertainers keep using this argument and it`s killing the industry. sorry if I come across as a jack ... and I don`t mean to come off in a tangent like this. Again sorry, but I had to get this off my chest!!
@RandomNPC001 You didn't need to get that off your chest because it's a pointless rant. Nothing in the original post justified anything in your comment. You seem to be reacting to something that you imagined but that is not in the wording of the original comment.
@@paulonius42 Feel free to disagree! I stand by what I've said. You not liking my message does not make anything I've posted any less true.
@@RandomNPC001 It's not a matter of disagreeing. The original post did not diminish any of those other strong women or any other franchise. It simply praised Doctor Who for its tradition of strong women. That clearly includes the past, so nobody is erasing the past. That's why I said your comment is pointless. You responded to something nobody said. The original post praised this show strong women without saying anything against all of those other strong women characters.
It's not about disagreeing, it's just that you responded to something that wasn't said. Where did the original post erase the past? Go ahead, please show me so that I can apologize for being wrong about you.
@@RandomNPC001you're reaching. Reread the original comment.
If he has to tell someone his name, for investigative purposes, it's often Dr. John Smith. :)
finally i can watch someone watching this for the first time
"Living plastic creatures..."
"That's not a big deal. There's plenty of those in Beverly Hills."
i instantly fell in love
Fair warning,
Torchwood while technically good isn't usually light. When I described Children of the Earth to friends of mine, I told them "think of Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead without bubbly things like hope, or optimism."
Indeed, Torchwood is a more mature show.
Also, fun fact: Torchwood comes from an anagram of Doctor Who.
@@donkeysunited Yes. When they were bring Doctor Who back, they didn't want the word to get out so they called it Torchwood instead
@@donkeysunited damn, I never noticed the anagram even thought I've been watching doctor who for almost a decade :o
Police boxes were around after the phone was invented so that police officers could communicate with their station. They didn't look like the Dr who one but they were big enough to have a tiny desk in them. Eventually it just became a box on a pole the housed a phone that everyone could use in an emergency
I believe they were also used as temporary holding cells.
They didn't have radios. This was their police network
The remaining ones in Glasgow are now used as mini coffee shop or vape stands.
In the UK there were such boxes pretty much identical to the Tardis - especially in its original 1963 incarnation. Since then it has had some minor cosmetic upgrades but would still be instantly recognisable as such if it landed in England any time between 1930 and 1970 - the basic design was from 1929.
The person who was being detained would be inside the police box while the police officer could call his station on the phone located outside the police box.
Is it a comedy? Is it a horror? Is it a drama? Is it action? Is it sci-fi? Is it (insert adjective here)? YES lol
Companion: It's bigger inside than out!
4th Doctor: That's because it's dimensionally trancendental.
Companion: What's that mean?
4th Doctor: It means it's bigger inside than out.
Time to put 'Robots of Death' on the rewatch list.
The Nestine/Autons which feature in this episode actually first appeared in the premier of Season 7 in 1970 which was not only their first, but also the first story of the 3rd Doctor John Pertwee and the first episode of Doctor Who in colour. (Though a large portion of the audience wouldn't have noticed that difference since many hadn't yet upgraded to colour televisions)
Do we know if that was the first episode Davies saw of Doctor Who? That would explain why he brought them back at the reboot of the series for the first adversary of this Doctor.
@@charlesedwards2856 It is not. He's actually explained his very first memory of Doctor Who is Hartnell turning into Troughton when he was 3. However he would probably have much clearer memories of the Pertwee years as he'd have been 6-11.
First and foremost, EVERYONE, be careful of spoilers! With the new-Who Verse starting with the 9th Doctor, they did a really good job of explaining the basics of the original Dr. Who for those that have not seen the earlier Doctors. For me, my first experience was Doctor #4, Tom Baker. Be careful, Angela, you'll find yourself getting deep into the series and will start to want to binge watch. BTW: Love it when you wear your Pink Floyd shirt.
You said spoilers 😁
Spoilers
"Spoilers" need the quotation marks lpl but yeah this comment section is worst than the Anime tractions on yt
"The assembled hordes of Ghengis Khank couldn't get through that door. Believe me, they've tried!"
Such a great line! I forgot when it was from. Glad to see.

You're right about the limited special/visual effects of Classic Who adding to the charm of the series. I'm Gen-X (55) and it delights me that the show's revival sparked interest in the classic series, and I have seen a lot of younger reactors watch the classic episodes, completely gripped by the stories and characters, which are the true hearts of both Classic and NuWho. I also think it's funny that the oldest NuWho episodes (like this one from 2005), aired almost 20 years ago, so even the revived series now has the same low-budget charm to modern eyes that the original series had for viewers in 2005.
Something to consider is Doctor Whos origin as a TV show, it was meant as an educational family show which would spend its time in the past to explore history and the future for science. It obviously grew from this but always maintained it pre watershed time slot and has remained family friendly. Hence its slight goofyness but its meant to be fun and exciting! Let yourself get wrapped up in the adventure of it all and remember, run!
yup main viewership became the Stoners!!!!! lol nah jk
but kinda
Was for those who enjoyed herbal timewasting when I was a student far too many decades ago!
Yes!!!!!
Welcome to the Who fandom, Angela.
And... please be patient with the earlier episodes. 😅
It really is worth it. 😁
And remember to moisturize...
@@SapphireDragon357 ... with acid...
This was a sucessful revival because it respected the Classic series but also modernised and didn't rely on it for someone new to start watching.
The Autons were a Classic Doctor Who Villain from the 70's, I wont say anythign more than that incase you ever do watch Classic Who but it doesn't matter if you know that or not. Obviously the effects in the 60's - 80's were not good, not even for the time but I don't think anyone really cared because the stories are good. Even modern Doctor Who doesn't have the best effects (although it does get better) but I can say that I have never met someone who only likes Classic Doctor Who and hates Modern Doctor Who.
I discovered Doctor Who in 1985 when I was out of work for five months. It was on a couple of PBS stations local to the NY/NJ area, one of which was on UHF (remember the bowtie antenna that clipped onto the normal VHF pole antenna?) I watched all of Doctors four and five, and most of six. I was delighted when they revived the series with Ecclestone and have watched it ever since.
Seeing Sesskasays and Blind Wave and now you react to Doctor Who is amazing.
This Doctor is the Ninth Doctor. It’s amazing how this show has gone on to this day for over sixty years.
I look forward to you seeing the Doctors, the companions and the villains. This is going to be fun.
Sesskasays watches so much stuff I can’t watch with her so it’ll be nice to sit down and watch a full playlist after this season
@@funnylilgalreacts that’ll be nice. Sesskasays has reacted to New Who up to the latest and she’s reacting to Classic Who. It’s taken her literally years. Even without Classic Who it’ll take you years to react to all of New Who.
There are Classic Whos I’ll recommend when the time is right.
She’s just finished the Tom Baker era, if I’m not mistaken… don’t know if she’s released her first Peter Davison reaction yet.
@@borjankosarac3645 you’re correct. She’s on a break at the moment. It’ll feel sad when she eventually finishes Classic Who after so long.
Jules Reacts and emme reacts are also doing Doctor Who. Lovely to see Angela start as well!
Low budget monsters were a Who tradition and badge of honor. lol This universe is wonderful for those of us prone to hyperfixating on fictional universes. Terrific characters, tons of lore, and a canon with a built in excuse for being a bit wibbly wobbly now and again. Looking forward to seeing you enjoy the ride.
OMG, can't wait for Blink!
The oldest episodes were literally sets on a theater stage, just like watching a play, which they filmed. :)
Since you haven't watched the old Dr. Who stuff, I'll mention that's where they told us his TARDIS is always a British phone booth because normally every TARDIS has a camouflage device that makes it appear as something in the environment where it lands. However, his broke while he was in Britain, and he never fixed it.
You've picked a perfect entry point into the Doctor's universe. As an old fan, "9" is still my favorite
"Ta-ra" means "goodbye" and supposedly is a variation of "ta-ta", which means the same thing. There are all sorts of theories where the term(s) originated, none of which can be proven, such as a word derived from old Norse and so on.
21:38 "I'm not his assistant!" Rose.
I'm honestly so glad go see you reacting to Christopher Eccleston's Doctor. I grew up watching the older ones with my dad (Tom Baker was always his favourite) but Eccleston's version was the one that truly captured both my imagination and heart in a way that none of the others have ever quite managed. I can't wait to see you go on this journey.
As someone who has watched this show many many times since I was a child, I am very exited to follow along with this series seeing someone who has never seen it before. I've never seen you before, this was on my homepage, but you've certainly gained a new subscriber :D
If I'm remembering correctly, Police Boxes were basically telephone booths with a direct line to the local police station. A TARDIS is supposed to have a chameleon circuit, something that automatically disguises it as something innocuous, but this one got stuck as a police box in the 60s. The Doctor has since fixed it, but likes it like this.
Damn. Welcome to the fandom!
I'm curious to see who will end up being "your" Doctor. It's so weird. You have the most laughs with one, you love the journey of the other... but there is this single one you feel is your kindred spirit. Ah, what a journey you have ahead of you.
Every time someone asks me who my favorite Doctor is, I have to make a TED Talk about it.
Lol
That is the most apt description of the emotional state when watching DW. But yeah, one of them will definitely be your spirit animal, your soul-mate, your “protect him at all costs” or whartever you call it :D
100% My Doctor is Tom Baker.
My early guess is Eleven ❤
Gods the nostaliga! The 9th was always MY doctor, I started watching from this episode just after his season wrapped and once I reached the end there was David Tennant. Who is a genius and a darling but I always resented him because 9 was MINE.
Christopher Eccleston is a great character actor. He and Jodie Whittaker were in a stage adaptation of Antigone. Met him and Billie at the same convention in different years. Nice people.
Rose's mum Jackie turns out to be a fantastic character
'....plenty living in beverly hills' 😂😂😂
ok, i am in love now hahaha,
Welcome to the fandom! Fair Warning: Doctor Who fans do not know how to shut up about spoilers, at all, and I'm not kidding. Some think they're being clever and cryptic about it and they're just not. Some are "just trying to be helpful" by explaining all the history and the lore like it's not explained better and clearer in the show as part of the story. Some just don't seem to register that "this major character dies in this episode" is a spoiler (not an exaggeration, I've literally seen that). It is very, very rare for a reactor to make it to even the season 1 finale without being massively spoiled for it because people will just openly talk in the comments about it like it's nothing.
Have fun, you're in for a wild ride, please get a comment moderator
When police boxes were a thing - there was a hatch on the outside that held a phone connected to the nearest police station, free for use of the public in emergencies. Police officers had a key to the box and could use it for sheltering from the rain, doing paperwork, having a cup of tea, or even sticking in a captive and locking them in till they could get help. The light on the top could be set to flash to show that help was required.
Oo! Glad you are finally getting around to Dr Who. The 'Nu-Who' series aren't a reboot as such, they continue on from the 40-odd years of the classic programme. But, they treat you as a complete newcomer to the series, so the Who lore will be slowly re-revealed over the course of the series. No spoilers, but there are some amazing story arcs and payoffs over the course of multiple series. Dr Who can be exciting, scary, silly and often emotional, but it is one hell of a ride...
One of my favorite reaction channels has discovered my all-time favorite sci-fi franchise. There is light in these dark times, after all.
Indeed. Sharing the things that bring us joy, connecting through them, certainly feels more important than ever.
(As I often have to remind myself whenever I worry about spending too much time on "escapism". If not for stories and fun and art and laughing and crying together, what would be the point? Plus, as Gaiman among others has pointed out, "escape" is not a bad word; many people _need_ escape into art at various times, for various reasons.)
YES I'M SO EXCITED I cant wait to hear all your opinions! Matt Smith is my favorite Doctor but Chris is a star! "Does Doctor Who normally blow up buildings?" LMAO
So 13:20 - in the 70s, police boxes did indeed used to have police officers inside them for your local area. If you needed something you’d knock on the door and ask them to come sort it out on their bicycle
I don't know why, but the Beverly hills comment made me laugh for 5 minutes straight 💀❤
🙊 😂
you know *exactly* why :)
You know the sound the TARDIS makes? That wheezing, groaning? That sound brings HOPE wherever it goes. To anyone who hears it, Doctor. Anyone. However lost. Even you.
"I'm . . . er . . . looking for the Doctor?"
It makes that sound because he leaves the hand break on.
A rusty key on a piano wire... :)
@@SGlitz vVVVvvvrsvvvVVVvvrsvvVVVVRRrrsvVVVvRRRrrs! tThm!
He regenerates , this is Christoper’s first appearance and The Doctor has just regenerated, TARDIS =Time and Relative Dimension in Space
OMG I love you're watching and reacting to this. So happy!
In-regards to the blanket, there's two different "categories" of Doctor Who, Classic Doctor Who, and Modern Doctor Who. Classic Doctor Who went from 1963 until sometime Pre-2005, most if not all the doctors should be on your blanket. Modern era starts with Christopher Eccleston and he's not THAT good of a doctor in my opinion, but he's still great. There has been (approximately) 14/15 doctors. The Classic eras are 1-8 doctors, and the modern eras are 9+ so, you won't be seeing the earlier doctors in the modern ones explicitly, they are mentioned and images of them are shown, but they themselves very rarely make an appearance. Plus (spoilers) there's one doctor who shows up in the modern eras who was able to be doctor twice, that no other doctor got, I can't wait for you to figure out who.
== WARNING: While the list below IS a list of doctors and may be spoilers, my internal river (You'll meet them in the future) wants me to warn of.. Spoilers! ==
Here's a list of them (I included whether they're in the classic era or not - I didn't spoil which doctor was doctor twice, don't worry):

Ugh, so excited. You're in for such a great time, Ang.. I can't even begin to express the love you'll find in this silly little call box!! 🤍🤍 Some of the emotional moments hit hard, just a heads up to order EXTRA tissues. Love ya!
As a long time DR who fan,and whovian since the 70s we welcome you to our group
Seconded
All those in favour? [RAISES OWN 59-YEAR-OLD HAND] =:o}
I haven't check your channel for a week and now you're watching Doctor Who?! Ooh boy i'm going for this ride ❤

re: that period of time where nothing was being made, there was actually a LOT of expanded universe stuff, audio books, novels, comics etc. particularly about the 8th doctor. but i’m not an OG fan so i can’t say what that period of time (they call it the ‘wilderness years’) was like
There always was expanded universe stuff. There were comics made as far back as the First Doctor era. The 8th Doctor era it just went into overdrive because of the TV show being cut.
Police boxes were made to hold people to wait for back-up/paddy wagon. The phone is on the outside for the officers to call for assistance.
I grew up in the UK in the 1970's, so John Pertwee and Tom Baker were my Dr. Who's (Tom Baker was my favourite). The show went downhill as far as was concerned in the 90's, but when the show was rebooted with Christopher Eccelstone, I loved the first few seasons. You picked a great place to get into the show, I think you'll become a Whovian ;-)
This was one of the best reactions to this show I've seen in a while. Someone going in almost completely blind is so much fun!
I am very happy that Christopher is now reading stories for his Dr. I full on loved him as this character. My late husband also liked him in this.
I'm so glad you're starting this ,you have a big great journey ahead 👍
I watch 3 minutes of intro and realize, you fit PERFECTLY into our fandom!! 🤗🫶
A Police Box is a tiny office, telephone call unit, equipment locker and potentially a temporary cell. They mostly existed from the early 1900's to around 1960, After that, Police became more mobile, and Police stations became where Police business was done.
Hell yes!! So excited for.this journey so much here that you'll appreciate. The 9th doctor is my favorite, he's FANTASTIC
19:04 She said the thing! 🥳 It is indeed, as so many have remarked, bigger on the inside, Angela. :)
The new series blends pretty well with the original. Sure, the format changed over the years (where one story would last over several half-hour episodes as Part 1, Part 2, etc.), but the series is a good continuation. The new one has creatures and characters who first appeared in the 1960s and 70s. For example, those mannequins were originally on Earth in the 70s and defeated by Doctor #3.
Something nice that they added with the new ones, is the inclusion of previous companions as guests. One of the original ones from the 70s became the lead of not one but two spinoffs decades apart.
In an episode that aired in October 2022, one of the very first companions from the first episode of the entire series in 1963 made a guest appearance at the age of 97.
Christopher made such an impact for such a short stint.
The police boxes are long gone but back in the day they were basically mini police stations. A copper could rest, fill out paperwork or even detain someone. They held a phone which could be accessed by the public. In there heyday not only did no one have a mobile even land lines were uncommon.
Yes, Eccleston does have large ears but, unfortunately, is NOT ginger 😫
…still not a ginger, too 😂
When I first found your channel, there was a list of shows I hoped you'd never seen, just so that there was a chance you'd do reacts to them. At the very tippy top of the list was Doctor Who. So words cannot describe how excited I am to see how you respond to the campness, cheesiness, horror, comedy, and all around trauma that this show is.
You.. are in for a wild and emotional ride. I started this a few years back at this exact spot and lord it turned into one of my favorite shows ever
It's the only show that can be silly, serious, cheesy, and scary at the same time, while breaking your heart every now and again.
We got another one~
Man I love when people found this show. It's so intriguing, hehe
All the best with the show, and hope you have a blast fills with rollercoaster of emotions! :D
Oh, you are in for a treat :) and we all get to reap the benefits!!
Trust and believe that if you are an emotional watcher and need a box of tissues while watching you will get a lot of touchy moments.
Something light hearted she says😂😂😂....oh dear Lord the sadist in me is going to have so much fun with this.....new subscriber
What a journey you're about to take!
As a lifelong Doctor Who fan, you are in for the epiphany of an emotional rollercoaster. You´ll laugh, you´ll cry, you´ll cheer, you´ll scream... it has everything. The series evolves over time, with better things coming up. It does have some cringy moments, some cheesy moments, but there are some really incredible pieces on this. The speeches from the Doctor in the latter series are truly moving and incredible; and a reflection of us as a society and civilisation. You are going to love this!!! Just be ready for the latter half of this season... when *SPOLIER AERT* they meet a captain... I´ll say no more.
It's such a joy you're beginning your Doctor Who journey. It's a wild and crazy ride.
Ready for the journey of a lifetime. You will laugh, cry, laugh some more and cry more. The show does it all.
Grew up on:
Third - Jon Pertwee
Fourth - Tom Baker
But,
Eleventh - Matt Smith is my favorite.
The first three Doctors were the most serious. Tom Baker started the trend of absurd Doctors.
The first absurd Doctor and a great narrator for a metal album.
Baker was also my actual first but I found Classic Who to be too cheap and cheesy to really get into it as I was a Star Wars kid. Chris Eccelstone is who I really consider my 1st but Peter Capaldi's 12th is MY Doctor.
The 2nd Doctor wasn't very serious
Me too! Pertwee was my first doctor.
"oh no big deal, there's plenty of those in Bervely Hills" - I choked laughing so hard
On the blanket is Peter Davison which is funny as his daughter Georgia is married to David Tennant WEIRD HUH??
Rose was a great fun episode that reintroduced Doctor Who to a brand new audience.
