River references this minisode during 'The Husbands of River Song' when she mentions the time there was two of the Doctor, and how he kept trying to take her on a date to the singing towers of Darillium, but always changed his mind.
And this is why I respect Moffat so much. He didn't have to do that. He had zero obligation to tie up a loose end from a minisode that only a small percentage of the fandom even saw. Yet he knew that fans like me exist, who really try to make sense of it all, so he threw us a bone.
From "The Husbands of River Song", River: "Well, that would explain why you kept cancelling coming here. Do you remember that time when there were two of you?"
RIVER: Hang on a minute. I recognise that planet. DOCTOR: Well, that's nice. Maybe they'll name the crater after us. RIVER: That's Darillium! DOCTOR: Always good to know where we're going. Could you concentrate on your work, please? RIVER: You know, the Singing Towers. DOCTOR: Yes, I'll be sure to give them a wave as we zoom past. RIVER: You always say you're going to take me there for dinner and then you always cancel at the last minute. DOCTOR: I'd quite like to cancel this time too, if at all possible.
Haha I love the marks!!! Also, River mentions “that time there was 2 of you” towards the end of Husbands of River Song talking about their last night together. This is what she was referencing :)
These shorts are some of my favorite doctor who content. They are nostalgic, fairytale- esque, and they hold such meaning. There’s just something magical about these particular shorts.
I love that River keeps calling the Doctor a nostalgic idiot for coming back to that location, but she also keeps ending up there during that exact moment, so she also feels sentimental about that place and that date. They're just so cute.
Good night is one of my favourite ever things that Moffat wrote and it's one of the reasons that the friendship between Eleven and Amy mean so much to me.
When these were released on the Series 6 DVD/Blu-ray set, I was thinking, "this is what I wanted to see more of in Series 6. More heartfelt character moments." Which I felt Series 6 lacked at times due to the heavy Silence/River Song story arc that got in the way, but that's just me thinking that.
That was a great watch Jess. I love your reactions of course. If only we could figure out what those markings on you were.... Ha! Absolutely awesome. I've never gotten a tattoo in my life but if I were to get one I think I now know what it would be. Thanks!
I have been waiting for years for you to watch these. River references this in husbands of river song when she talks about all the times the doctor canceled on going to darilium. Also, you might have a bit of a problem with the silence going on. Run.
Haha. I clocked the first line ( ~ 0:16) and thought _is that wrist tattoo new?_ then the second appeared and I realised my mistake 😂😂😂. Loving all these vids. 👍
Think to #13 and River standing before the singing towers. River was telling the doctor about stories saying this is their last night together. River says, "Remember when there was two of you? Because I expect you to find a way around this".... The Doctor interupts saying, "Not all things can be avoided". Anyway... her 'two of you' remark was from this clip.
Yeah, these ones were lovely. Funny but heartfelt too. And easy to forget that there was a time when some thought this was all we were getting for the end of River's journey. Personally I never bought that though, I figured we had to at least see him give her the sonic and sure enough, in "The Husbands of River Song", the Moff provides ;).
Love it, never seen this one before and oh loving the silence marks, nice touch. Just realised I always press like before I've even watched the reaction lol
I was so disappointed that Moffat wasted Darillium on these DVD-only minisodes. It was such a missed opportunity for some incredible emontions! Then of course Husbands eventually rolled around and it was perfect.
Jess, you made me think I was going crazy with those tally marks XD I swore you didn't start off with them and it took me way too long to figure out what you were doing! XD
The doctor gets afraid of the ghost train. One of my favourite moments/lines in Doctor who Also i would love to know what the silence want with you hehe
When this originally aired I was crushed by the Derilium comment and thought that was the last we'd see of River. During The Husbands of River Song she says when they finally are there "Remember that time when there was two of you?" Referencing this and also saying in her way "Remember that time when you thought this was my end? This is like that time too, right?" It's a line you can easily miss but if you've seen this minisode you understand that she's in the stages of denial trying to beg and barter with him. There was something else I wanted to say. About those marks I think. I feel like it was really important but I can't remember what it was. Weird thing is I have them too. Wonder where they came from? *shrugs*
O /// M /// G . . . It had to've been 70% into the video before I noticed the hashmarks, and that they'd been there the whole time slowly growing from cut to cut. Damn you...! Hahahaha... XD
I know you don’t read this but you may remember in The Husbands of River Song, River says in passing "do you remember when there were two of you?" She was referring to this
So happy to see you react to these minisodes. They're so sweet. And uh, Jess, you're not, by any chance, experiencing any memory loss in between minisodes? There just seemed like, hm... maybe there was something going on there.
I love the participation of the Silence in this reaction, even if they are never on screen. I hope you have in the schedule reacting to 11th's deleted scenes.
Omfg! I was just about to ask wtf was with the marks appearing on you throughout the video after repeatedly making myself hold off in case I figured it out, and I figured it out. (No there is no creature within my line of sight.)
Uhh, Jess, I don't think you're alone in there
Got to appreciate the silence marks showing up between videos
Very clever and inventive.
that was awesome. LOL I thought I dreamed it at first, or wondered if they were there from the beginning and I was just slow to notice. LOL
Took me forever to notice!
Yeah - classy move.
Yeah, noticed that too
River references this minisode during 'The Husbands of River Song' when she mentions the time there was two of the Doctor, and how he kept trying to take her on a date to the singing towers of Darillium, but always changed his mind.
You beat me to the punch.
And this is why I respect Moffat so much. He didn't have to do that. He had zero obligation to tie up a loose end from a minisode that only a small percentage of the fandom even saw. Yet he knew that fans like me exist, who really try to make sense of it all, so he threw us a bone.
It was probably this little encounter with himself that changed the Doctor’s mind honestly
Best line: "RORY, SHE'S HAVING AN EMOTION!"
From "The Husbands of River Song", River: "Well, that would explain why
you kept cancelling coming here. Do you remember that time when there were two of you?"
omg that makes so much sense now, I was thinking about this slight plot hole but that explains it!
RIVER: Hang on a minute. I recognise that planet.
DOCTOR: Well, that's nice. Maybe they'll name the crater after us.
RIVER: That's Darillium!
DOCTOR: Always good to know where we're going. Could you concentrate on your work, please?
RIVER: You know, the Singing Towers.
DOCTOR: Yes, I'll be sure to give them a wave as we zoom past.
RIVER: You always say you're going to take me there for dinner and then you always cancel at the last minute.
DOCTOR: I'd quite like to cancel this time too, if at all possible.
Nice profile pic
Omg the lines you added throughout 😂😂. Just like the silence episode 👏
The marks are killing me hahahahah 😂😂😂😂
ha ha they really escalated didn't they.
At first I thought she had a nasty scratch on her arm :P
OMG I loved the silence marks... I never realised until after a few minutes but when I did see it I actually got a little freaked out😄😄😄
Haha I love the marks!!!
Also, River mentions “that time there was 2 of you” towards the end of Husbands of River Song talking about their last night together. This is what she was referencing :)
"We've got 10 minutes. Get dressed."
"That was very nearly the perfect sentence."
These shorts are some of my favorite doctor who content. They are nostalgic, fairytale- esque, and they hold such meaning. There’s just something magical about these particular shorts.
Matt Smith is my favourite
Same
Same and he always will be my doctor
Rowan Atkinson is my favourite
David Tennant is mine
Wait, he walked in with a fish... IS THAT JIM THE FISH?
oh
Nope it’s the wrong fish
Silence will fall... XD
I love that River keeps calling the Doctor a nostalgic idiot for coming back to that location, but she also keeps ending up there during that exact moment, so she also feels sentimental about that place and that date. They're just so cute.
The more times i rewatch the eleventh doctor the more he's my favourite doctor.
Umm...Jess, have the Silence visted you lately?
How would she know? She's clearly not wearing her eye drive! How dangerous. ;)
Judging by the doctors clothes this takes place right after Rory and Amy’s wedding
......and shortly after river was conceived
Good night is one of my favourite ever things that Moffat wrote and it's one of the reasons that the friendship between Eleven and Amy mean so much to me.
Ahh you're so adorable! Unless you're actually surrounded by Silence, in which case you're actually in quite a lot of danger. Erm. Basically...run!
When these were released on the Series 6 DVD/Blu-ray set, I was thinking, "this is what I wanted to see more of in Series 6. More heartfelt character moments." Which I felt Series 6 lacked at times due to the heavy Silence/River Song story arc that got in the way, but that's just me thinking that.
JESS! For the love of Who get out of there!!!!
“Silence Will Fall!”
🤫
That was a great watch Jess. I love your reactions of course. If only we could figure out what those markings on you were.... Ha! Absolutely awesome. I've never gotten a tattoo in my life but if I were to get one I think I now know what it would be. Thanks!
Way too much Silence around....
So much heart in these little episodes. Eleven has such a beautiful outlook on life and always gave Amy such lovely advice.
OMG THE LINES! JESS RUUUUUUUUUUN!
i like the markings appearing throughout the episodes lol tbh i didnt notice them until 8 min in cx
so glad you're watching all these little shorts they do. So many people don't ever and they miss so much.
Subconsciously noticed the marks at 6 minutes and gradually started to notice it more. Only fully noticed it by the end of the videos.
I have been waiting for years for you to watch these. River references this in husbands of river song when she talks about all the times the doctor canceled on going to darilium. Also, you might have a bit of a problem with the silence going on. Run.
Grahm: *Run now, ask questions later.* ;)
So glad you finally saw these. All of Matt Smith's minisodes were awesome. And damn those marks! :-)
Haha. I clocked the first line ( ~ 0:16) and thought _is that wrist tattoo new?_ then the second appeared and I realised my mistake 😂😂😂. Loving all these vids. 👍
Well, this was a trip down memory lane...
I feel like I should know what those tally marks are for, but I can't seem to remember... ;)
The tally marks are hilarious. :D I haven't actually seen this minisodes but I loved your reaction to seeing Rory.
OMG! The Silence marks! Such a funny touch!!
Thumbs up for the marking
Love the silence marks! When I first saw it on your arm, I wondered if it was a new tattoo. That would be really cool.
Girl! I had the same reaction xD I was hypeing so much because i love River and the 11th Doctor,also Amy and Rory
Think to #13 and River standing before the singing towers. River was telling the doctor about stories saying this is their last night together. River says, "Remember when there was two of you? Because I expect you to find a way around this".... The Doctor interupts saying, "Not all things can be avoided". Anyway... her 'two of you' remark was from this clip.
I literally didn’t notice the marks until half way through the video and I was like WAIT
Omg Jess
you must have some silence in the room, they are more tally marks with every new video :O
Omg it took me like half the video to realize what the tally marks were, hilarious!
Yeah, these ones were lovely. Funny but heartfelt too. And easy to forget that there was a time when some thought this was all we were getting for the end of River's journey. Personally I never bought that though, I figured we had to at least see him give her the sonic and sure enough, in "The Husbands of River Song", the Moff provides ;).
Ooh I wondered if you were going to react to these!
I just noticed the numbers... eek.
Doing a nostalgic look at some of the old videos. Ah, there was never a more appreciative WHO reactor than Jess.
Hahah! The Silents (Silence?) marks were hilarious. I hadn't seen those before, my heart too..
The TALLY MARKS!!! I LOVE IT!
LOVE the silence marks. Very clever add on.
Love it, never seen this one before and oh loving the silence marks, nice touch. Just realised I always press like before I've even watched the reaction lol
I was so disappointed that Moffat wasted Darillium on these DVD-only minisodes. It was such a missed opportunity for some incredible emontions! Then of course Husbands eventually rolled around and it was perfect.
I love the Silence markings!! ♡
Great video I might need to check myself for markings. After this!
The silent marks, excellent stuff!!
Those minisodes are the best
Jess, you made me think I was going crazy with those tally marks XD I swore you didn't start off with them and it took me way too long to figure out what you were doing! XD
The tally lines are a hoot
The minisode "Rain Gods" explains what happens concerning this dinner date. :-)
OMG! I've wanted this for forever!!! Thank you!!!
Oh yes, the marks made this one extra awesome.
The doctor gets afraid of the ghost train. One of my favourite moments/lines in Doctor who
Also i would love to know what the silence want with you hehe
Silence marks. Brilliant

O /// M /// G . . .
It had to've been 70% into the video before I noticed the hashmarks, and that they'd been there the whole time slowly growing from cut to cut. Damn you...! Hahahaha... XD
What’s the soundtrack used from 8:54 to 9:00 ? It’s awesome and I don’t know the name.
I know you don’t read this but you may remember in The Husbands of River Song, River says in passing "do you remember when there were two of you?"
She was referring to this
Took me til 10:28 to notice the marks xD
Omg haha I love the marks you put on yourself throughout the video. Yaaaas live it 😂
Love the silence marks!
Love/Hate the hashmarks!!! Brilliant idea!!!
THERE'S SO MANY OF THEM WITH YOU! RUN!
fun with tally marks great reaction
Nice touch with the Silence Tallies!
Firefly 24601 Or maybe the fact the Silents appear at the end of some Eleventh Doctor related videos.
the SILENCE WILL FAIL
At 6:32 was when I realized that the marks were increasing. 👀👀👀
I've never seen these. I'm watching them with you!
I loved series 11 but I do miss these days, my Doctor Who obsession started with Tennant but the Smith era took it to a whole new level.
Every once in a while I wind up with numbers written all over as well. I thought it was just me .....
Where did those marks come from?
So happy to see you react to these minisodes. They're so sweet.
And uh, Jess, you're not, by any chance, experiencing any memory loss in between minisodes? There just seemed like, hm... maybe there was something going on there.
LOL I didn't notice the silence marks until 10 mins in, got to rewind now :-))))
Love the Silence marks!
Damn, I watched the first five mins of that thinking - I never noticed Jess had a tattoo on her arm, I wander what it signifies...
YES YOU DID THEM!!!
The Papal Mainframe must be displeased
I love the participation of the Silence in this reaction, even if they are never on screen.
I hope you have in the schedule reacting to 11th's deleted scenes.
The marks! True fan! :D
Loving Doctor Who December - thanks for all the effort and hope you fix your infestation of silence!
Omfg! I was just about to ask wtf was with the marks appearing on you throughout the video after repeatedly making myself hold off in case I figured it out, and I figured it out. (No there is no creature within my line of sight.)
So how many Silence did you kill on sight?
Don't be alarmed.... But you are not alone...
Have you ever done a reaction to Night Gods? It's another River Song short.
I love Rivers.
It looks like you may have a silence infestation...might wanna do something about that :D
Not bad. 4/5 is pretty good. Pity about the last one, since it's relative to Closing Time. Oh, well. Thanks.
the silence tallys?
Hahaha the silence reference
Where did you find these? I’ve always wanted to watch them
I SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOING WITH THOSE HASHMARKS! 🤣🤣🤣
Where do you even find these anymore?
