I love how Donna just shrugs it off when the fake Doctor says that his arms are too long, like she's so used to the Doctor saying such random things that she doesn't take any notice of them.
Given how relatively recent the regeneration was (a few days at most, maybe?), it even tracks as a normal thing for him to say (see also: Nine complaining about ears, Ten noticing a mole, Eleven panicking over longer hair, Twelve not liking the color of his kidneys, Thirteen being shorter, etc.)
That & she agrees with him that his arms are too long
@@brentage5000Fourteen recognizing that they're repeating a form because of the teeth.
@@brentage5000According to the novelisation of The Giggle, 14’s (original) life only lasted about 15 hours.
And we thought 10 didn’t last long enough!
@@WimpyKelv12 okay, but does that include the liberation of the daleks comic series from Doctor Who Magazine? Cuz I can maybe buy destination skaro and the specials encompassing 14-15 hours, but the comic (which takes place between Power Of The Doctor and Destination: Skaro) pushes that to at least a day and a half.
"Are you my mummy"
"Hey, who turned out the lights"
"My arms are too long"
The three scariest phrases in Doctor Who
You forgot "Don't blink"
Also "We wanted to live forever. So he made sure we did."
There's a treasure trove of these
"Google me"
@@iamnickthegeek That one is more chilling than scary.
And by scary, I mean something that makes you freak out, not just go _"damn, that was cold."_
I love the idea that these monsters technically aren’t trying to kill Doctor and Donna at this point. Rather just purposely attempting to scare them to stimulate their brains and allowing them to learn faster.
Great username 😂😂
Then rampage and do void things
yep. also they were from the void and only became conscious and formed from hate and such. which tells me they exist because of the daleks and everything else of the like that keeps ending up in the void
@@CloudHiromake sense
@@CloudHiroThe void can be a funny thing. Sometimes what you put in it is exactly what you get out of it.
I love how it always takes a repeat of the same statement for The Doctor to catch on that something's wrong lmao
"We didn't have the parts" and "We should go. Doctor." are examples that come to my mind regarding this from other episodes
“Hey, who turned out the lights?”
'There is something on your back.'
You just reminded me of HELL.@@thepandorica1660
"Are you my mummy?"
Love the fact that the docs initial reaction to ‘Donna’s’ long arm is concern and reassurance that he’s ’got her’ and that ‘he’s there’ for her. My god their friendship is too pure.
The build-up of tension from the moment the Not-Thing Doctor sits down to talk to Donna up to the end of this clip is fantastic, imo. One of the most genuinely unnerving and anxiety-inducing moments I've seen in a Doctor Who episode in years. I don't think I'll ever be over David's delivery of, "Oh, we get hungry, don't we?"
I love "Food is interesting..."
This is all one big intellectual exercise for the Doctor Not-Thing. It's brilliant!
the funny thing is that i genuinely thought it was the doctor being an alien like usual. like in city of death when he said "well, you're a beautiful woman. probably."
wasn't until not-donna started to say the same thing that i started to panic.
I'm not sure why, but 0:15 and "Oh, I see...when something's gone, it keeps existing..." is such a cool idea. Intangible creatures learning about the reality they threaten as they go along.
i love that the language seems perfectly apt to them. they’re not confused about english at all. “hungry” MEANS something to them, but until now it has only been an abstract concept. one of infinite impossibilities. but now it is made concrete. he doesn’t sound like something learning about hunger for the first time, but rather like an entity who is considering it seriously for the first time. such an interesting tone to strike, it makes them feel truly intelligent even though they know nothing.
It's kind of like Flatline, creatures that are so totally alien to us that normal things like shape are confusing to them.
David's villain acting - I need to see MORE of it. 10/10 episode.
So there's this show called Jessica Jones...
Very good movie called Bad Samaritan. He plays an American and it's really scary.

Every amateur artist: "I don't know why but the arms are so very difficult."
Nah, it's always the hands.
@@DeoWatcher-tn1bk definitely can confirm
Catherine’s acting through these three specials are the highlight for me, she came to plaaaay. The look of horror as he stands up and the way she plays the Donna no-thing at the beginning, she doesn’t say a word and yet you know something isn’t right.
She is truly an actress !
Or for that matter, matter-of-factly asking how many knees.
@@mithiwithiI like the two knee walk she does where she stumbles side to side whilst taunting the doctor and Donna. The delivery is so menacing.
Tate’s acting when Donna screams the doctor took the wrong one was also so amazing.
The specials gave her sooo much great material to work with, she was definitely the standout for me! Although everyone was great
Quite magica
1:16 just realised how smooth that 1 take was, showing Catherine Tate in 2 different places without obviously cutting.
I'm undecided on my overall opinion of the new run so far, but I've gotta say, the visuals and concepts are fantastic. The Meep's practical elements were spectacularly executed, the not things are done well especially the practical arms and second knee, and my god that cinematography, perfectly replicating a one-er with two of each character in frame as the camera moves is insanely cool. One thing's for certain, visually and conceptually this era is top notch as of The Giggle
Yeah, it was good. Not being able to show Donna's face and her placement after the whip transition to the Doctor double brings it down a bit though.
The cut happens around the 18 second mark with the whip pan it's pretty seamless
I wonder if these shots were matched manually or with motion controlled camera
In the behind the scenes it showed that that is a double so they must've done a sneaky cut when Donna runs around the corner went you can't see her face anymore.
"Oh, we get hungry, dont we?"
That moment got me-
That moment and the "that's right, things keep existing" utter CHILLS
@@ironicanimations me to mate 😅
Chills
"Food, that’s interesting. Because once I sort out the arms… then I have a problem with the _jaaaaa…"_
I love the few seconds before the doctor realises that the nothing isn’t donna. The: “Its okay I’m here, we’ll sort this out!” Just makes me tear up.
Its why i love him so much as the doctor. For me he is the best doctor. After him comes matt. I hate 13 and 15.... the rest is either good or okay.
Definitely a return to form for Doctor Who, terrifying villains that the Doctor doesn’t know initially how to fight but learns how to deal with them throughout the episode. And uncanny body parts and movements to ice the cake.
And we know look forward to the one who waits
The perfect blend of goofy and cheesiness and actually unnerving and unsettling
"if you can just get those bodies to calm down" I cannot stop laughing
0:50 i love how the doctor doesn't immediately get scared, he junps into caring for Donna, before realizing it isn't Donna, just to show the doctor has alot of compassion for people.
I was initially confused, they're in one room, but it cuts to them being in a different room... but the truth soon became clear. Subtly well done.
I actually looked down to reply to a text just as the scene was beginning, fair to say my brain was scrambled until I saw all 4 of them together
I think at first I assumed it was a montage of different times, like they'd been there a while and it was cutting between their conversations at different points. So when it slowly became clear that both scenes were meant to be happening simultaneously, that was a pretty nice bit of recontextualisation that made the horror really work.
This scares me more than "Are you my mummy" and "Hey, who turned out the lights". But I can't stop laughing
either! God, I love Doctor Who.
Don't blink.
@@_____alyptic Blink and you're dead.
Doctor Who just giving me phobias at this point.
"They're us."
"They're not-us!"
Clever Donna. Literally, the not-things would be not-Donna and not-doctor. Collectively not-us.
this soundtrack for the episode was genuinely otherworldly and really made this episode stand out as its own unique horror/thriller type theme. please do more of this type of thing it was brilliant.
A jaw dropper, literally.
it also has some size changing scary moments... Makes your arms very difficult!
@@InfiniteProductions123 May have to give it a watch in the future though
Cheeky !
@@InfiniteProductions123 makes your arms very long
I love how they play the Not-things so well in this scene. They’re complete polar opposites to their main characters, which makes it even cooler how well they are played by the same actors.
2:49 "You stupid big hand" that's the funniest line in the episode lmao.
What about "I've got to say, this is the biggest nightmare of my life. But... I look quite good." "I can't argue."
@@BaronMartin that one was hilarious as well
Mines when Donna punches her other self & says that felt therapeutic
I kept thinking she said “you stupid bitch, HYAGH” 😂
That look in Fake Donna's eyes at 0:21 sent shivers down me. Just absolute blackness behind them.
You seen the look in the fake guy eyes at the beginning of the video it’s crazy I could feel that gave from anywhere
14: 'That was weird, right? Like, even by our standards, that's pretty up there?'
Donna: 'Yea, pretty high. 9 out of 10 for me. It was the jaw drop that put me over the edge. You?'
14: 'The rapid growing and chasing us on all fours. I've been chased a lot, but that one ranks up there as one of the most 'nope, not doing that again' sort of chases.'
Gotta love the bad CGI, honestly adds a sort of charm to it honestly.
I think the CGI was bad on purpose to emphasize just how... wrong the Not Things were.
@@Godzillakingofkaiju1 Dr Who has never exactly had great cgi.
I’ve seen worse CGI. If you ever get into watching Super Sentai or Kamen Rider you’ll see worse examples than this even in their big budget movies
makes me feel like its the ear;y 2000s again
apparently a lot of it was practical blended with digital elements; like the arms were real; them crawling was real they just had some touch ups but then you also had stuff like the jaw which tbf as far as a creature that hardly understands skin and length goes its jaw textures just stretching like that would be pretty accurate, least to my eyes lmao
It's fun to see the uncanny valley being used to such a strong effect.
I love how they took advantage of CGI’s Uncanny Valley effect. Masterful!
this episode was one of the best in the series, absolutely genius and AMAZING
LOL. Ffs. Maybe if you love transvestism.
@@GeorgeEugeneBarretttransvestism?
That's a new term to me
Like transvestite orrr?
Also wdym 😭
He means he's a bigot.
@@paulheap1982 yea i thought so
Guess I just hoped one of them had a coherent argument instead of the usual ew woke doctor who bad
@@GeorgeEugeneBarrettmost coherent bigot:
To me Midnight is the absolute best episode of New Who, but this one it's right up there with my favorites now.
1:57- Coraline's dad.
EXACTLY. EXACTLY EXACTLY!!! Thats all that I could think of 😣😣😣
Funny, because Neil gaiman has written for doctor who lol
So Silly and Creepy but SO Doctor Who! 💙
No need for a but silly and creepy Is the definition of Doctor Who
A great horror film feel to it with that creepiness. These are the type of episodes that make doctor who great to watch. In my opinion miles better than what we have had in the last couple of years. Also being a anime fan this scene gave me attack on titan feels
Here’s the basics on how to defeat a titan
1. Get Two swords
2. Get a grappling hook
Finally slash the titan on the back of the neck
“Hey! Who Turned out The Lights?”
“My Arms are too Long”
“Well that’s alright then!”
And of course, "Are you my mummy?"
@@waltonsimons12we should go now! DOCTOR!
"I don't know where I am" from the episode where people get sucked into the internet
i love the subtle difference tennant’s performance when he walks back in, initially i thought it was a really weird cut and the doctor has finished what he was doing and come back, and then it switches over to the doctor in the other room
At 1:15 Donna goes to the corner where a small cut can be noticed. Then someone else in a wig continues running where the David Tennant playing the Doctor is now in a different costume than before with the arms. The Donna in the back corridoor is not edited in. It is the actual actress in the back with the one in the front being a double. You can see this Donna never faces the camera. Then there is a cut while the camera turns around allowing Tennant to be in the other costume for the Doctor as the Not-thing. Whenever one of the two are on screen the other´s face is obstructed so that a double can take over. I believe that at no point in time did they ever edit the characters in.
"My arms are too long."
My spoon is too big.
I like rusty spoons.
Every whovian I know agrees this is one of the best episodes ever.
Yeah?? I'm new to the Fandom
u dont know many then m8
It was entertaining, but it's not even in my top 20, tbh...
Well let me be the first to tell you it's shit then
@chickenman22710 oh ho someone on the internet complaining of Dr Who
1:56 the execution is both hilarious and terrifying!
😂😂😂
The slurring of the "the arms.... are so vvery difficult..." at 1:14 is so horrifying. Excellent acting.
I haven't seen anyone else say this but I am getting MAJOR Mandela Catalogue vibes from this episode.
Hell, one of the diagrams of an alternate is a person with abnormally long arms almost identical to the not-Doctor.
“Mandela catalog Alternate doctor isn’t real he can’t hurt you”
Alternate doctor:
Between the unexpectedness of the first “my arms are too long”, the Not-Things’ distorted rubberhose toon physics “body horror” anatomy, and the casual discussion of said anatomy, I personally found this whole sequence hilarious. The Not-Things as a concept are terrifying in their own right, but this particular set of scenes is pure live-action cartoon comedy to me. It doesn’t start getting spooky until “We came from the nothing.”
I love how The Doctor was trying to reassure her until he realised it wasn't her
Well this episode was jaw dropping pun intended at 1:58, this reminded me of midnight, very interesting love RTD’s storylines 😁
1:29 Well, that's literally taking the definition of "knuckle-dragger" to a whole new level... 😱
One of the best episodes in years, love having RTD back!!
As horrifying as the episode is, I bet it was fun to make
This felt like classic era Tennant Doctor Who. Very quoteable dialog and disturbing situations. Loved all the specials last year.
Truly the first hide-behind-the-couch moment in a while. Hoping for a bit more of that with Ncuti and Millie!
I found it hilarious then again the kids probably didn't 🤣🤣😂😂
"I accept any form of media without any quality to the entertainment aspect so long as it serves my political agenda" 🤡
@@K-kj5svIs clown emoji supposed to be you saying that or ??
@K-kj5sv What political agenda do you feel is referenced in this episode, and how, specifically, is it referenced?
@@cidyrog I love that they believe this episode is bad and the only reason people like it was because Isaac Newton was black…even though they’re the only ones who care that Issac Newton was made black. Like… we’ve seen Charles Dickens with ghost, Agatha Christy with giant alien wasps, but they somehow take issue with the realism of Isaac Newton’s skin color.
…also this episode was genuinely good. Kind of cringe they’re implying otherwise.
Weird, crazy and wonderful. That's Doctor Who 💙
Man, this was so goofy but also very effective at being unsettling.
The villains in this episode remind me of the Alternates from the Mandela Catalogue, and my goodness do they fit so well.
This is the comment I was looking for. The concept is so goddamn similar
I was initially thinking Pattern Screamer, but the Alternates is probably a better fit for the Not-Things.
1:10 - Every 2D artist
2:18"you are not nothing"
"We are quite something"
Aren't those the same thing-
“Are you my mommy”
“Don’t blink”
“We wanted to live forever, so he made sure we did”
“Hey who turn out the light”
Now it’s “my arms are too long”
All are so chilling but my all time favorite is “The question that must never be answered, Doctor who?”
The not-things are paving the way for Doctor Who horror comedy. Love it!
1:00 the music, the look on the fake Doctor’s face, the lighting, hearing the real Doctor off screen… fcking chilling!!
I was SO happy to see Donna again.
It makes a lot of sense that the arms are difficult! Human hands are ABSURDLY complex multipurpose tools.
agreed. the human body is kind of a fascinating biomechanical machine...
Me: *stubs my toe*
My nervous system: 1:57
I'd bring up the elbow......but that nerve feels more like your body just went into a blue screen of death
oh this episode is so good
it's absolutely terrifying though
It’s cool how a good doctor who episode can do something so silly and still win you over in the end
1:57 For some reason, I find the literal jaw-dropping effect hilarious.
1:57 me after I get my math grade back
I love how pouty "My arm's are too long" sounds 😂
Just seeing David and Catherine together on screen again felt so amazing, add in how this is a great experimental episode like Midnight or Turn Left and it’s just fantastic to see after all these years 😍
I love this show
The giant Donna looks so funny 2:36
Literally just the face of a Titan
@@iiiivvvv9986my thoughts exactly
The idea thst something, or somethings came from beyond the edge of the universe is terrifying.
this episode gave me the most terrified laughing fits I've ever had
Fury from the Deep's animation style has seaped its way into the real world.
i love how they just start asking how they should look
Id probably go into a seizure if I were to experience the beginning portion of this video alone!😭
Also, that chase scene was probably funny to record.
"Oi so in this scene, you are chasing yourselves through a long tunnel. Now get on your hands and knees and start crawling."
I guess this episode was a Jaw Dropping experience to watch
Actually it reminds of a scene out of Army of Darkness of the evil dead franchise where Ash tried to figure out which necronomicon was real. One of them had a singularity a mini black hole that sucked him in and later stretched his face out. I think this is an indirect nod to that movie. As always I love Russell T Davis work on doctor who. Taking the story lines from the doctor who comics and new material. Fantastic ❤
I've got so many theories about these two. First off, when Ten faced down The Master and Rassilon and told The Master about The Time War, he mentions "The Could've Been King and his army of Meanwhiles and Never-Weres". Could these be related to that somehow?
Doubt it. That's more metaphorical than anything.
The thought that the not-things literally comes from nothing itself makes them so scary. And if these creatures can survive in the nothing, then what other creatures can? Such a good episode. In my opinion, the most existentially terrifying Doctor Who episodes out there.
I mean, they weren't wrong. Their arms WERE too long.
0:21 She's just standing there... MENACINGLY!!
WELL THAT'S ALRIGHT THEN
I´m amazed how scared I was watching this episode. The concept of shapeshifters which also copy your knowledge/memories to become a perfect copy is just scary. Luckily it was only two Not-Things and two people as with more it would have been even more difficult to find the real one.
That line “We’re Not-Things. But you… you are not nothing.” They’re entities made of nothing that want to be something, so they just pick the first living creatures they come across. First it was the captain of the ship, then it was the Doctor and Donna. SO unsettling.
I am now going to start randomly stating “my arms are too long” whenever one of my friends and I are alone somewhere
The way he just stares at her, like a dead body just glaring motionlessly.
That face at 2:59 is horrifying
3:12 dead space (2023)
Weeping angles and the not-things are genuinely terrifying.
No way!! They got him to do the “don’t forget to subscribe”!!!
As soon as the the Doctor slumped down on the floor, I knew it wasn't him. Such great acting. Just so subtly wrong. And a brilliant episode. My favourite of this group of specials. All a little bit too real though. AI is getting more and more sophisticated. I wonder how it will change things. When the Doctor got the 'wrong' Donna at the end, it really pushed the potential danger home.
Having two knees on one leg is very much cursed.
I quite like that the cgi looks off it just works with this setting and the non things
The feeling at this moment when this was first broadcast will take something unbelievable to even match in the future.
The main problem is that they are trying to make the body all at once, when you have to start with the skeleton then put the skin on
"Me arms are too long to shift the gears"
"got a problem with the jaw" will become a même I swear 🤣
this episode was total nightmare fuel. imagine what would have happened if those creatures got back to normal reality.
At first, it sounds like an excuse. "My arms are too long."
This is the first time TV DW has managed to capture this feeling of pure hopeless horror since it started airing in Technicolor…
The Not Things were such a clever idea💡! They seriously creep me out.
I love Donna’s “Salve” (Latin for “Hello”) as a slight call back to her trying to speak Latin in “Fires of Pompeii”.
