I love that Colin and Sylvester get along so well. I don't think Colin ever fully got over his heartbreak about being fired from Doctor Who but he never takes out his frustration on his successor. He and Sylvester seem to genuinely like each other.
Probably workplace camaraderie. Both worked through what was probably the most tumultuous and difficult times in the show, with higher-ups reportedly trying to actually sabotage the show. Both, but perhaps especially Colin, had to work hard to prove that they WERE the Doctor, and after some of the audios, good Lord did Colin prove beyond a doubt he was the right choice for the role
All the Doctors get along with each other quite well. They even admired each other at some points. (David Tennant and Peter Capaldi with Tom Baker, Peter Davison with Patrick Troughton, Ncuti Gatwa with David Tennant, etc.)
Sylvester is just so precious. It will be sad when he goes. I’d say the same thing about Tom, Peter, Colin and Paul. Their all so lovely. I’m looking forward to the 60th anniversary!
One day, I want the show to force [insert Doctor here] to deal with evil versions of past incarnations. That way, we can have McCoy appear as a mastermind Doctor-Villain from an alternate universe and wreak havok from behind the scenes. 7+Ace will always be my No.1 TARDIS team, and he's still the darkest incarnation of the Doctor to this date. It's crazy how Sylvester, Sophie, and Anthony Ainley - the 80's Master - all share the exact same birthday.
Peter Capaldi was darker. Sylvester McCoy had enough charm, humour and whimsy to balance out his more villainous moments. Peter Capaldi often seemed like a straight up sociopath.
@1:12 wow, he’s wearing the 5th Doctor’s pants, the 6th Doctor’s coat and the 4th or 2nd’s hair! And this was wayyyy before the Power of the Doctor! ;-P
Nobody could Sylvest a McCoy better than Sylvester himself. He's been Sylvesting his for a very long time and McCoys are known to be unusually eccentric creatures from Sylvesterrrrania VII who like plenty of Sylvestation. McCoys do very well outside of their natural habitat but you need to Sylvest them like a true Sylvester would, not too much and not too little, just the right amount of crazy and charm. The trick is to reverse the polarity of the McCoyster Motherboard. Never reverse twice, it confuses the Macaroni out of your McCoy. If you've been Sylvesting too much, you can reverse it once more and it should be fine. If your McCoy is not speaking in tongues, whistles or sci-fi lingo, not appearing out of nowhere singing songs in colourful scarfs and loud costumes or you don't feel the wrath of a McCoy when it tells you to stay still, or maybe your McCoy is more obsessed with tv shows than motion pictures and you don't know what to do, call a Sylvestinator. He will Sylvest your McCoy back to Sylvesterday!
I got to speak with him at his table when he was at a comicon in Connecticut a little under 10 years ago. Lovely fellow from what I gathered of him, & he let me take a picture with him for free. I asked him either if he had fun on Doctor Who or just what it was like working on Doctor Who, & he gave a great answer. It was something to the effect of "Oh, it was awful! They made me dress up & fight Daleks! It was dreadful! ...It was quite fun, actually."
*I love Sylvester so much!* I also love how he recreated the playful rivalry between Patrick Troughton (2) & Jon Pertwee (3)! Seeing this was like seeing an amped-up version of Troughton!
4:07 Sylvester looks so much like troughton in this clip especially with the little face he makes at the end. Of course tom baker is every bit as legendary as people say he is, but I’d argue troughton was more influential to the show long term at the end of the day.
I saw him doing a panel down in Sydney around 2015; after a few questions sitting on the stage he instead just got up and talked to the audience directly so they’ll be speaking into his mic aswel. I wish I had seen any of 7 before then, I couldn’t appreciate the panel at all.
I would like to politely inform you that Peter Capaldi dresses like his iteration as well. Or was the Doctor dressing as Peter's Capaldi? Either way, it's similar.
This made me laugh. I'm going to add _Sylvest my McCoy_ to _smack my gob,_ _swoggle my horn,_ _flumm my ox,_ and _flabber my gast,_ and possibly _french my fry._
Reunited with him for the third time at London Film and Comic Con, went to a talk with him, got to give him some handmade question mark bracelets, and got photobombed by him. Yes. It happened. 😄😄 Until i get to interact with other actors who played the Doctor (next to Colin Baker, who is a very nice man btw), Sylvester McCoy is my fav actor to play the Doctor so far.
I had a long trying day, I really need this, thank you so much for uploading this. This man is going to be the reason I subscribe to BritBox just to rematch these series.
Afterlife from Big Finish (I haven’t watched his run yet) is my favourite performance of the Seventh Doctor by Sylvester McCoy by far. He’s pretty good as the Doctor.
That was a joy to watch and a fine wee pick me up after a fairly crappy day, thank you. We in Scotland certainly seem know how to breed a good Timelord! (Not that I'm claiming any personal credit for that. I assume that there has been a task force of my countrymen and countrywomen working on it but up to now they haven't asked me for any help. Which is a shame.)
3:43 Wait is that Wendy Padbury? Was this interview or whatever shot in the early 90s or something? She seems here to have not aged a single day since 1969!
… I prefer the David Bowie we have at home 😍 My wife knows that I love her. And an 80 year old Scottish man who wasn’t my first Doctor, but was definitely the one that changed me ❤️❤️➕🟦

Filth.
@@Limes_not_Lemons I sylvestered my mcCoy until I doctor whooed
Him and Colin on stage is like having two uncles from different sides of the family round for tea. Deliberately antagonistic in a jokey way.
Not to mention, they're always a package deal at LFCC 😂😂

I saw a video about Tom and the thumbnail made me think he died.
It's weird to think that his last appearance on Doctor Who was only last year.
Last so far!

22nd Selvest to your McCoy, my good sir. Some Slys may not announce it, but you may have successfully McCoyd the Reversal of the Selvest Polarity.
0:12 not Ben Shapiro trembling with fear as he sees McSylvester Coy talk faster than him
McCoy and Baker. The Laurel and Hardy of Dr Who.
And this is why he’s my favorite Doctor.
The "Fury of the Timelord" parts were top shelf genius! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always love the banter/bickering between the Classic Doctors xD
Ah, I love Percy James Patrick Kent-Smith
Or as I call him: P J Peeks.

2:54 Honestly, the look on the cheetah people (in the background)’s faces when McCoy starts swearing 😂
He is the most Sylvesterest Mccoy to ever Sylvester Mccoy 😂
*I love Sylvester so much!* I also love how he recreated the playful rivalry between Patrick Troughton (2) & Jon Pertwee (3)! Seeing this was like seeing an amped-up version of Troughton!
A great compilation, showcasing McCoy's style of silliness!!!😂
Never thought I'd need to have seen Sylvester beating a bush he tripped over but I love that
I was in The Hobbit,you know-Colin's reaction-wonderful.

The man is an international treasure.
Sylvester Mccoy is literally British Bill Murray.
My favourite Doctor 🥰 (been lucky enough to meet him twice and he’s so lovely!)
Met him thrice. And yes he's lovely 😭
My favourite of the Classic Doctors and a really amazing man! 😁 Loved this! 😊
Mine too
He’s actually the only former Doctor who dresses quite like his iteration of the Doctor dressed in real life.
I would like to politely inform you that Peter Capaldi dresses like his iteration as well. Or was the Doctor dressing as Peter's Capaldi? Either way, it's similar.
Such a funny little man and we love him for it 😅
McCoy is a great Sylvestment
We must protect this man at all cost
This made me laugh. I'm going to add _Sylvest my McCoy_ to _smack my gob,_ _swoggle my horn,_ _flumm my ox,_ and _flabber my gast,_ and possibly _french my fry._

Can I please ask about the origin of Sylvester McCoy singing about patches?

It was a musical adaptation of the pied piper of hamlin he did in the mid 80s

Apparently, he was in The Hobbit.
