I've always loved how the 1st Doctor acts like he's older than the others even though he's the youngest! Same with the War Doctor treating 10th and 11th like kids even though he was younger than both of them!
me Yeah, I know the 1st and War Doctor lived longer than the other regenerations in themselves, but overall, they were younger than the Doctors who came after them.
But hear , all The War Doctor adventures are on Big Finish . Now The 1st Doctor was likely not born but woven from genetic looms (book Lungbarrow , Cold Fusion also audio ) .
Ashbridge Industries because of the way they live a Doctor that has lived 1000 years can claim to be older than a Doctor who has lived 100 years despite being the earlier version. The First Doctor actually had a childhood, education, profession and only started being the Doctor when he was already a grandfather. The War Doctor fought a brutal war that arguably aged him to death, having no time for the young boys' nonsense the 10th and 11th were spouting. 11 himself lived on Trenzalore for 700 years, becoming as old and cranky as the 1st. If he had met any previous Dr he would call them young man. The oldest doctor 12 protests to the 1st that he IS younger despite the obvious
I read somewhere they both served in the Merchant Navy. Troughton was a workaholic. Pertwee was a determined businessman and actor. If I had to choose I'd choose Troughton, because I have always liked the idea of someone being underestimated and still being the smartest person in the room
+Ed Parnell The Royal Navy, if you please! They were both in the Second World War, and indeed served for a time together on the same ship. Troughton was apparently very eccentric; in freezing cold weather, he refused to wear a helmet and instead wore a tea cosy on his head.
"You mean you're deliberately choosing to go on the run from your own people, in a rackety old TARDIS?" "Why not? After all, that's how it all started!"
funnily enough, there's a comic from in between the 2nd and 3rd doctor eras that details a bit more about troughton's regeneration... and it involves time lord-controlled scarecrows!
"Congratulations, you just became President!" "Hey, uh, I got this thing I need to turn off and I left my roast in the oven and I got this other thing I'm doing tomorrow and after that...oh, you know what? Screw it. RUN! GO! GET TO THA TARDIS! GO, GO, GO, GO!"
I always find it amazing that Pertwee never really looked like he had aged all that much when he came back for these special things. A few more wrinkles, hair had gone white, but he was still the Doctor right up to the end!
He looked much more womanly, more like a grandmother, as happens with men as they age, and the testosterone lowers. The hormonal reason behind why many men are said to "soften with age. The same reason, only in reverse that women grow hairs on their chin.
Probably one of my favorite scenes in all the franchise because of not just 4 of the Doctors in the same scene, but the companions in the background across different eras looking on. Really just ties together so much more.
There are two ways of looking at that, actually. Yes he is the oldest among them in chronological order but is still younger in that particular regeneration than the others. So in a sense, both views are correct. He is simultaneously the Elder and the Baby of the group.
@@LordZontar Yeah, the way I see it as despite 5 being the current incarnation at the time- physically and personality wise, he was the youngest. Each incarnation despite being the same person are still multiple different personalities, so of course the other Doctors act older because despite coming before him- their bodies and minds are older. Regeneration is such a strange thing.
Honestly, while I don't care at all for the idea of any Doctors being recast (regardless of whether they're alive or dead), Hurndall does a lovely job. He's not much like the First Doctor (neither is Bradley, for that matter), but for what it is, it's a charming performance all the same.
+ Anna Schiro What Philip Thompson means is that Jon Pertwee's other iconic role is that of a living scarecrow named Worzel Gummidge. ruclips.net/video/WimRgpZ2IGQ/видео.html
And of course, Patrick and Jon have met two different incarnations of the Master. I think Tom sort of holds the record in that regard, although Peter is tied with Patrick and Jon.
Although she doesn't seem to have remembered the events of The Five Doctors when she met #10... Which kinda' figures. It appears that, to avoid paradox, only the oldest Doctor can retain the memory of these timeline-crossing events.
People crap on the JNT era, but the closing credits were done perfectly with a blending of all the themes over the 20 year history, at the time, of the show.
"I'll explain it later." Classic line from John Pertwee's time as The Doctor! I viewed the VHS version from the library back in the '80's, and recently purchased the DVD with the un-mastered and re-mastered versions. I always watch the original.
Seeing the 2nd and 3rd Doctor acting like an old married couple will never cease to be funny. I was quite glad the 13th Doctor alluded to that in the Doctors Assemble, during the Lockdown videos 👌🏻
It's an unpopular opinion, but Peter was ,my favorite classic doctor. He was the most "every man." I have watched Time Crash with he and David Tennant (my favorite modern doctor) dozens of times (before David had become Peter's son -in-law). If find it comforting somehow
@HARRYRANTS A. That's not how you spell Karen B. Literally just being a woman doesn't make you a Karen, but I guess you take objection to female heroes full stop.
Kinda weird how the Fifth Doctor doesn't take much interest in catching up with Susan. After all, he's still her grandfather and he hasn't seen her for roughly three hundred years.
We're lucky she was even allowed to call him 'Grandfather'. John Nathan-Turner didn't want the reference because he said it would make people think about the Doctor having sex... Carole Ann Ford said if that was the case, she wouldn't do the story, so JNT was forced to cave. She thought it was utterly ridiculous. There was apparently a scene filmed of a short conversation between Five and Susan, but apparently they thought Carole Ann Ford and Peter Davison had sexual tension... So it was cut.
Aren't ALL the Doctors Susan's grandfather? Well, not "all". I suppose if Susan met Dr. 13 (Jodie Whittaker), she'd probably call her grandmother. I don't like that the 5th Doctor barely had any interaction with Sarah Jane. She last saw the Doctor in his 4th incarnation and obviously didn't recognize him when she said " It was very nice to meet you." But the 5th Doctor acted like Sarah was a stranger to HIM. He doesn't say a word in response (not in even so much as a "Sarah, it's ME!) seeming almost cold to her. Why wouldn't he greet her as warmly as he did the Brigadier in " Mawdryn Undead"?
Capaldi's Doctor and Clara agree to have their short-term memories wiped with those worms, as well as 2 other people, a modified human that "becomes" whoever she touches, and an "enhanced" human with computer chips installed in his head. They are in the most secure bank in existence and must break into the main vault itself without getting killed in order to find out why they agreed to it, and to get out. tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Time_Heist_%28TV_story%29
Yeah, yeah I remember that, and yes, yes it has been canon for so long but only stated in that episode I suppose. Maybe it's a good thing Nine never got a crossover because that one had self loathing to the extreme
"Fancypants"-"Scarecrow": That was somewhat tickling. The part where the 5th Doctor was holding onto Sarah's hand & staring at her-Priceless, even though I was like what's going on here? 😉
India Johnson he wanted to take Sarah to see his Eye of Orion, if you know what I mean. Wink wink, nudge nudge. When this TARDIS is a rockin', don't come a knockin'!
+David Blyth You don't "crush on" children who are in your care. That's how the Doctor regarded his companions back when he wasn't a romantic character (one of the crippling blows dealt to the post-2005 series). And his life was always dangerous; he'd previously lost Katarina and Sara, both in the same adventure when he was in his original form.
No matter which incarnation it is I think the Doctor views the Brigadier as a real friend and someone he could trust and rely on. Companions always seemed like people the Doctor was teaching and educating, and that is probably why when the 2nd Doctor was forced to regenerate he sought out the Brigadier. He compensated for the aspects the Doctor lacked. And in the episode with the 7th Doctor you can see the happiness and also concern as the Doctor knew what he was doing and didnt want his friend caught in the middle. Would have loved to see a real episode with him and the 6th Doctor.
I have to say, the way the first Doctor is portayed throughout The Five Doctors is such a nice homage to Hartnell and shows the loving Grandfather side of him that we didn't get to see so much. David Bradley did very well with portraying Hartnell's performance but I find I prefer the warm, caring old man.
Oh, Susan always had the Doctor wrapped round her finger, and it shows in a lot of episodes. Hartnell was genuinely fond of Carole An Ford, and came to regard her as a granddaughter. She jokes that he thought her to be younger than she actually was.
I always like to think that even though technical the later doctors are older and wiser, they still treat the 1st doctor as sort of the leader and more important. Because deep down under all their different personalities his life is the true doctor, his real self, the one whose ideals the others follow
I suppose it's because the Hartnell Doctor was the "longest" lived incarnation (up to that point anyway) and also is further back in the Doctor's past than the others, so that's how he's regarded as the Elder of them by the future selves.
As a 13 year old Doctor Who fan, this was the best thing we had ever seen! All 5 Doctors together (ok, I know Tom wasn't really there, and it was Richard instead of William!), but my Favourite TV show for the previous 7 years had just hit the Jackpot! (the Two Doctors wasn't as Special, but both Time Crash and The Day Of The Doctor were [I didn't see The Three Doctors as I was only 2 at the time!].) 🤔
The first DVD release of The Five Doctors was edited compared to the original TV version. They added in some deleted scenes and updated some of the special effects. You can see both versions on the Special edition DVD of The FIve Doctors.
trence5 He chose not to be in the episode, after seven years you can't blame him for not coming back. Though in recent interviews he has said that he regrets not coming back for the five doctor's.
I hope there is another multi doctor story soon with Jodie Whitaker, Capaldi, Smith, Tennant and Paul McGann (I'd throw Eccleston in there as well obviously but even if it did happen he most likely wouldn't come back).
I would love to see that. Especially the reaction of the 11th Doctor seeing the 13th Doctor because when he regenerated he thought he was a girl for a moment.
Tom Baker's still a legend as theory said, it was too soon after he quit-or a disagreement over the script? Remember The Three Doctors when the late William Hartnell made cameo role due to long illness?
Watching Hudnall(For Hartnall)Patrick Troughton and Peter Davidson and remembering Tom Baker's long run brought back wonderful memories of these first four foundational and talented character actors whose love of and commitment to this offbeat show laid the groundwork for it's great success. in later years in Britain,Australia and around the world.. Special mention to the late great William Hartnall who started it all when producer Verity Lambert asked him to act in this new show called Dr who in the mid 60s. He embraced the concept whole heartedly even though not being well for his run on the show but without his belief in the concept it may never have got off the ground. I have watched it from the start and view it (despite the nonsense of these ongoing gender arguments) as one of the most creative science fiction series ever created. Nuff Said.
stephen connell Yes! And the gender crap IS ridiculous. So sick of people and their cynicism trying to repaint art that doesn't need it, and seeing imperfections where they don't exist. Enjoy life and experience for what it is, not what it isn't (kind of went off on a tangent there, LOL)
I agree. I'm regularly stunned by BBC's ability to transition the old show from one of running up and down in corridors amid low-budget effects, to one that explores the companions' backgrounds, is more diverse in cast, features first-class TV effects and many mind-warpingly creative stories (e.g., Knock Knock), and is, more regularly than Classic Who was able to be, beautiful and profound in its examination of the human condition -- for all good SF turns out to actually be about human nature and things right here on Earth, don't you know. On a personal note, the time 11 told the sleeping little Amelia Pond, "We're all [just] stories in the end" really got me thinking and has possibly changed my life.
The only thing that would've been better with this episode was if Tom Baker actually interacted with his other selves, imagine the remarks the second and third Doctors would have about the Fourth's scarf and his ever present bag of jelly babies. But, I loved it.
As originally written, the title was The Six Doctors(with the First Doctor and Susan eventually revealed to be androids). The Fourth Doctor would have gone to meet with the Time Lords, playing out everything the Fifth Doctor did there in the actual version. The Fifth would have accompanied Tegan, as the First Doctor did. The Fourth would have then fallen under Borusa's control, and contacted the others just before he and Borusa teleported to Rassilon's tomb.(So, the brief scene where Troughton's Doctor acknowledges contact would have been him acknowledging the Fourth). The Fifth would have then helped the others free the Fourth...and I think the Fourth would have departed first, so there really wasn't much interaction planned, anyway.
@@brianoneill7186 also Sarah Jane Smith was originally to have paired up with the fourth and Jo Grant with the third. I would love to have seen Sarah Jane Smith's reaction in seeing 3 and 4 together
From what I read in 'Doctor Who Monthly' back in '83, Katy Manning was never involved, and Elizabeth Sladen was a late addition to the cast. (She had previously been asked to return to the series twice before, initially after Louise Jameson left, and again to be present for the Tom Baker-Peter Davison transition). The original plan was for Tom Baker to appear with Lalla Ward...but the production team had no clue that they were getting a divorce, until the day they approached Baker about the special, and he was not very receptive, because he'd been in a meeting with lawyers! Pertwee was supposed to team with Nick Courteney, and Troughton was originally going to be with Jamie. 'Emmerdale Farm' wouldn't give him time off to do the special, so they added the cameos' by 'phantom companions'. Hines was given a few hours off, long enough for his cameo...but his scene originally included Victoria. Deborah Watling was under contract to do a Dave Allen series, and dropped out of the special...and then they decided not to do that Allen show, so she got nothing! An early draft of the script featured Colin Baker as Maxil, from 'Arc of Infinity'. John Levene was supposed to play Benton, but turned it down when he showed up and realized his part was basically two lines as Troughton arrives and leaves('He's here, sir!, and 'That was the Doctor!'), which, after Levne left, were simply given to some generic, unnamed 'sergeant'.
Ahhhh, the TV special that made me fall in love with all things Doctor Who. Saw this as a young boy in the mid 90's at the public library. Then my true doctor was the eighth because the TV movie aired shortly after watch the five doctors...
@HARRYRANTS Tom Baker said that at the time he was asked to take part in it but declined because from his pov, he hadn't that long since left the show after having played the Doctor for about 7 years & felt he needed to distance himself as an actor from the character & it was too soon to reprise the role, though he has since said he regretted not being in it. The producers then used unaired footage of Tom as the Doctor from the story 'Shada' & came up with the idea of him being trapped by the 'time scoop' to explain his absence from the rest of the 5 Doctors story. It's just a pity he wasn't really in it properly, though some people feel if he _had_ been in it, his presence might have over shadowed the other actors playing the Doctor, I personally think it still could've worked, the writer, Terrance Dicks said, the og idea was to have the 4th Doctor be the one who was tempted by the power of Rassilon , with the other 4 Doctors freeing him at the end, could've also been good? but we'll never know, but I'm still happy with what we did get in the end.
This was one of my favorite episodes of the Classic Who. Yes, it would have been nice to have Misters Hartnell and Baker there, but Mister Hurndall did a good job of the First Doctor. Imagine if the Fifth Doctor had stayed and become Lord President.
I kind of wish they called up jeffrey beavers Obviously Roger Delgado had passed But having a multi master story In the same setting as a multi doctor one would be a great way to show the difference of the characters
So so brilliant to see three of the four best Dr's ever to play the coveted role! Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee & Davison. Along with Tom Baker (sadly absent from this), these four actors ARE the best Doctors. Period!
No, it was Ten - "I'm glad my future is in safe hands!" to eleven. War Doctor said about how they wouldn't retain their memories of this and that he says "At least for now, I am the doctor again!" and says to Clara the "half the man she is" joking on that he wanted another companion.
Sorry, you're wrong. Before the 10th Doctor left he referenced his final words "I don't Want To Go" rather than the 5ths last words from the 25th anniversary show.
@@theaussiebackflipboy He actually said both. He said "Glad to see my future's in safe hands," before remarking about how he needs a new destination, because "I don't wanna go" to Trenzalore.
I think it's best to see each regeneration as a slightly different person, like the regeneration process tweaks his mind and personality each time, this accounts for the way they treat each other and why they act like separate entities, each form lasts for a long time, lasting longer than we can tell from screen time, after spending time with a new mindset he just acts like a new person, finding it easier when he does talk to his past selves in those rare incidents. The first was more mature but regenerates and becomes more youthful, he feels more youthful and perhaps he is more inclined to being foolhardy. I like this because if you don't like the behaviour of a new Doctor it doesn't reflect on your favourite incarnation too much.
Of all the anniversary episodes this is probably the best of the bunch. The anniversary episodes are sopped to be when you look back and who's been along for the ride and this has it at its best. The five doctors had one way or another all 5 doctors and most of the compainions up till this point.
It was good that Bessie, the yellow roadster the Doctor drove while he was working for Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart as his scientific advisor at UNIT, did get to be seen again after The Five Doctors. That car hasn‘t been seen in Doctor Who since the 7th Doctor‘s era.
A good ending to a good Multi Doctor Story who should have been better if Tom Baker and William Hartnell (Without wishing to offend you Mr Hurndall) were in it.
You realize William Hartnell was dead at that point, right? Besides, I thought Richard Hurndall did a far better job at playing the original Doctor than William Hartnell. Maybe it’s just Terrance Dicks’ superb writing coming through, but I much preferred Hurndall’s performance to Hartnell’s.
Also Tom didn’t appear because he was totally typecast and wanted to break the public’s very strong association of him with the part. The last thing that would have been good for his career at that point would be to return for the 20th anniversary only 2 years after leaving when he already was there for 7 years. All the news outlets and journalists would be screaming “Return of Tom Baker to Doctor Who!” It would have been terrible. If you really cared about Tom you’d know he made the right decision. Besides, I think what JNT did was quite clever, using hitherto unseen footage from Shada to write Tom into the plot, even if we barely see him.
My thinking is that Flavia is the mysterious woman who appeared in the End of Time. She would have been the Acting President at the start of the Time War and would have supervised the revival of Rassilon to be a wartime leader. It would have made sense for her to be increasingly disillusioned with Rassilon's conduct in office. Hence the long look she gives the Tenth Doctor.
This special was called The Five Doctors, but Baker declined to appear, so they used footage from Shada (unaired at the time) and he was trapped in some wibbly wobbly time vortex thingy.
I have not seen many clips from the classic era, although I did see the parody starring Rowan Atkinson. Hearing Pertwee say "I'll explain later" made me chuckle.
Classic era suggestions from somebody who saw them go out first time round as a kid in the awesome gothic era 70s! - check out The Ark in Space and the 4 or 5 stories after it - all great. Also see Pyramids of Mars and the Brain of Morbius. Image of the Fendahl good too. If you can forgive the effects, all these stories are great!
I've been thinking about how the various versions of the Doctor seem able to cross over with themselves whenever they want to and I've come to this conclusion: Every version of the Doctor has their own timeline. When a Doctor "regenerates", it's actually the start of a new timeline, allowing the previous version to continue his life (and the actor to grow older) while the current Doctor lives the new timeline. As such, with 13 different doctors, there are 13 different timelines and each doctor continues to live in his or her own.
1:30 the 3rd DR dropping “we’ve had the times of my lives havnt we Sarah Jane” is a classic Dr move to fk with peoples heads in paradox situations. It’s probly like the time lord equivalents of an earth knocknock joke!
I dunno what instrument the Radiophonic workshop at The BBC used for the program’s theme back then , whether it was a synthesiser or keyboard of some sort but this was and still is my favourite version of the title music.

It was like this on set too, apparently Troughton and Pertwee would bicker at times over takes or lines.
+Therio Cassius It was never acrimonious, though. The two were great friends and did many, many appearances and conventions together.

Never grow old watching the Five Doctors nor the three Doctors before as the Brigadier says wonderful chap all of him ...
Kinda weird how the Fifth Doctor doesn't take much interest in catching up with Susan. After all, he's still her grandfather and he hasn't seen her for roughly three hundred years.
We're lucky she was even allowed to call him 'Grandfather'. John Nathan-Turner didn't want the reference because he said it would make people think about the Doctor having sex...
Carole Ann Ford said if that was the case, she wouldn't do the story, so JNT was forced to cave. She thought it was utterly ridiculous.
There was apparently a scene filmed of a short conversation between Five and Susan, but apparently they thought Carole Ann Ford and Peter Davison had sexual tension... So it was cut.

Aren't ALL the Doctors Susan's grandfather? Well, not "all". I suppose if Susan met Dr. 13 (Jodie Whittaker), she'd probably call her grandmother.
I don't like that the 5th Doctor barely had any interaction with Sarah Jane. She last saw the Doctor in his 4th incarnation and obviously didn't recognize him when she said " It was very nice to meet you." But the 5th Doctor acted like Sarah was a stranger to HIM. He doesn't say a word in response (not in even so much as a "Sarah, it's ME!) seeming almost cold to her.
Why wouldn't he greet her as warmly as he did the Brigadier in " Mawdryn Undead"?
@@radicalross7700 when the Doctor moves on from old relationships he doesn't muck around.
OK the Doctor low-key hates himself you just know
That was made quite clear in Time Heist, as well.
Remind me which one was that
Capaldi's Doctor and Clara agree to have their short-term memories wiped with those worms, as well as 2 other people, a modified human that "becomes" whoever she touches, and an "enhanced" human with computer chips installed in his head. They are in the most secure bank in existence and must break into the main vault itself without getting killed in order to find out why they agreed to it, and to get out.
tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Time_Heist_%28TV_story%29
Yeah, yeah I remember that, and yes, yes it has been canon for so long but only stated in that episode I suppose. Maybe it's a good thing Nine never got a crossover because that one had self loathing to the extreme
He was the nearest one to (what he believed was) the destruction of Gallifrey, so that's understandable.
One of the Great, courtesy of the loved and greatly missed Terrance Dicks.
Rest in peace, Sir and Thank you for giving us this Classic.
I love that they used the original theme, and it morphed into the theme at the time when it got to the middle eight.
"Fancypants"-"Scarecrow": That was somewhat tickling.
The part where the 5th Doctor was holding onto Sarah's hand & staring at her-Priceless, even though I was like what's going on here? 😉
India Johnson he wanted to take Sarah to see his Eye of Orion, if you know what I mean. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
When this TARDIS is a rockin', don't come a knockin'!
Considering "Worzel Gummidge", Pertwee's use of the term "scarecrow" was perhaps a touch ironic.
+David Blyth You don't "crush on" children who are in your care. That's how the Doctor regarded his companions back when he wasn't a romantic character (one of the crippling blows dealt to the post-2005 series). And his life was always dangerous; he'd previously lost Katarina and Sara, both in the same adventure when he was in his original form.
@@DeanStrickson Peri was hotter than Sarah AND he got to stare at her cleavage as he died.
@David Blyth no he didnt , there was NEVER romance between Sarah and the Doctors, that was Jo and 3rd!
The Brigadeer's goodbye always gets me, cause he says it to so many doctors. "Splendid fellows, all of you"
No matter which incarnation it is I think the Doctor views the Brigadier as a real friend and someone he could trust and rely on. Companions always seemed like people the Doctor was teaching and educating, and that is probably why when the 2nd Doctor was forced to regenerate he sought out the Brigadier. He compensated for the aspects the Doctor lacked. And in the episode with the 7th Doctor you can see the happiness and also concern as the Doctor knew what he was doing and didnt want his friend caught in the middle.
Would have loved to see a real episode with him and the 6th Doctor.
@@diracsea4590 Wholeheartedly agree, that Dimensions in Time was nice, but a real one would have been better.
he said it a lot all these years later it's stuck
I love that 2 and 3 never got on
Ironic from 3's point of view since that version was the version immediately before him.
I don't think any of the Doctors get a long do they ?
Troughton and Pertwee got along great in real life. So did 10 and 11. Pertwee and T Baker didn't dislike each other. They just weren't friends...
Oh, they got on famously as long as they were in agreement.
No, seriously, in real life, they were good friends...
I have to say, the way the first Doctor is portayed throughout The Five Doctors is such a nice homage to Hartnell and shows the loving Grandfather side of him that we didn't get to see so much. David Bradley did very well with portraying Hartnell's performance but I find I prefer the warm, caring old man.
Oh, Susan always had the Doctor wrapped round her finger, and it shows in a lot of episodes. Hartnell was genuinely fond of Carole An Ford, and came to regard her as a granddaughter. She jokes that he thought her to be younger than she actually was.
I always like to think that even though technical the later doctors are older and wiser, they still treat the 1st doctor as sort of the leader and more important. Because deep down under all their different personalities his life is the true doctor, his real self, the one whose ideals the others follow
I suppose it's because the Hartnell Doctor was the "longest" lived incarnation (up to that point anyway) and also is further back in the Doctor's past than the others, so that's how he's regarded as the Elder of them by the future selves.
Splendid fellows, all of you 🙂
As a 13 year old Doctor Who fan, this was the best thing we had ever seen! All 5 Doctors together (ok, I know Tom wasn't really there, and it was Richard instead of William!), but my Favourite TV show for the previous 7 years had just hit the Jackpot!
(the Two Doctors wasn't as Special, but both Time Crash and The Day Of The Doctor were [I didn't see The Three Doctors as I was only 2 at the time!].)
🤔
love the scarecrow comment from 3 to 2. Jon Pertwee actually was a scare crow in Worzel Gummidge
Wonderful stuff, I never get tired of seeing this.
4:21 No fewer than 33 speaking parts credited (including six for the Doctor)!
This is the version of the 5 Doctors that I remembered watching when I was young. Way different when I rewatched it.
MCSiblings2 TV Studios how different
How?
The first DVD release of The Five Doctors was edited compared to the original TV version. They added in some deleted scenes and updated some of the special effects. You can see both versions on the Special edition DVD of The FIve Doctors.
Why is there a war between new series fans and old series fans? I like both series
No war as far as I know.
I don't consider them 2 separate shows. The newer episodes are just that- newer episodes.
I feel the same.
Planet 360 it’s the same show just 2 majorly different eras, the classic and the modern.
Because back in the day, folks knew how to write "Doctor Who," not "what I want Doctor Who to be."
Troughton and Pertwee are the absolute best
"Splendid fellows. All of you."
I was SOOOO pissed that Tom Baker wasn't in this.
trence5 He chose not to be in the episode, after seven years you can't blame him for not coming back. Though in recent interviews he has said that he regrets not coming back for the five doctor's.
trence5 At least he was in Day of the Doctor
then you would be pissed at Tom Baker. He choose NOT to participate
KAO S l guess so.
trence5 some say Tom is still rowing that boat
This has to be the most Doctor moment ever. Running away from power
2nd Doctor "Fancy Pants!" 3rd Doctor (in response) "Scarecrow" That's a bit rich coming from Worzel Gummige!
it's funny though
I hope there is another multi doctor story soon with Jodie Whitaker, Capaldi, Smith, Tennant and Paul McGann (I'd throw Eccleston in there as well obviously but even if it did happen he most likely wouldn't come back).
Believe me, his friend Jodie could talk him into it.
Perhaps Eccleston could do as Baker did , and get trapped !! ( Story Wise , at any rate !! )
I would love to see that. Especially the reaction of the 11th Doctor seeing the 13th Doctor because when he regenerated he thought he was a girl for a moment.
Paul McGann is the one I’d really like to see more of. He was incredible in Night Of The Doctor

#TomBaker should have been in #TheFiveDoctors
Micheal McGrath I also heard he had issues with the writers.
Henry Peters And also he hated JNT for what happened in his final series which was JNT's 1st as producer
Why is it called the Five Doctors if there's only 4 of them?
Which is a shame. I thought his final season was one of Tom's best.
Tom Baker's still a legend as theory said, it was too soon after he quit-or a disagreement over the script?
Remember The Three Doctors when the late William Hartnell made cameo role due to long illness?
Watching Hudnall(For Hartnall)Patrick Troughton and Peter Davidson and remembering Tom Baker's long run brought back wonderful memories of these first four foundational and talented character actors whose love of and commitment to this offbeat show laid the groundwork for it's great success. in later years in Britain,Australia and around the world.. Special mention to the late great William Hartnall who started it all when producer Verity Lambert asked him to act in this new show called Dr who in the mid 60s. He embraced the concept whole heartedly even though not being well for his run on the show but without his belief in the concept it may never have got off the ground.
I have watched it from the start and view it (despite the nonsense of these ongoing gender arguments) as one of the most creative science fiction series ever created. Nuff Said.
stephen connell Yes! And the gender crap IS ridiculous. So sick of people and their cynicism trying to repaint art that doesn't need it, and seeing imperfections where they don't exist. Enjoy life and experience for what it is, not what it isn't (kind of went off on a tangent there, LOL)
I agree. I'm regularly stunned by BBC's ability to transition the old show from one of running up and down in corridors amid low-budget effects, to one that explores the companions' backgrounds, is more diverse in cast, features first-class TV effects and many mind-warpingly creative stories (e.g., Knock Knock), and is, more regularly than Classic Who was able to be, beautiful and profound in its examination of the human condition -- for all good SF turns out to actually be about human nature and things right here on Earth, don't you know. On a personal note, the time 11 told the sleeping little Amelia Pond, "We're all [just] stories in the end" really got me thinking and has possibly changed my life.
The only thing that would've been better with this episode was if Tom Baker actually interacted with his other selves, imagine the remarks the second and third Doctors would have about the Fourth's scarf and his ever present bag of jelly babies. But, I loved it.
As originally written, the title was The Six Doctors(with the First Doctor and Susan eventually revealed to be androids). The Fourth Doctor would have gone to meet with the Time Lords, playing out everything the Fifth Doctor did there in the actual version. The Fifth would have accompanied Tegan, as the First Doctor did. The Fourth would have then fallen under Borusa's control, and contacted the others just before he and Borusa teleported to Rassilon's tomb.(So, the brief scene where Troughton's Doctor acknowledges contact would have been him acknowledging the Fourth). The Fifth would have then helped the others free the Fourth...and I think the Fourth would have departed first, so there really wasn't much interaction planned, anyway.
@@brianoneill7186 also Sarah Jane Smith was originally to have paired up with the fourth and Jo Grant with the third. I would love to have seen Sarah Jane Smith's reaction in seeing 3 and 4 together
From what I read in 'Doctor Who Monthly' back in '83, Katy Manning was never involved, and Elizabeth Sladen was a late addition to the cast. (She had previously been asked to return to the series twice before, initially after Louise Jameson left, and again to be present for the Tom Baker-Peter Davison transition). The original plan was for Tom Baker to appear with Lalla Ward...but the production team had no clue that they were getting a divorce, until the day they approached Baker about the special, and he was not very receptive, because he'd been in a meeting with lawyers! Pertwee was supposed to team with Nick Courteney, and Troughton was originally going to be with Jamie.
'Emmerdale Farm' wouldn't give him time off to do the special, so they added the cameos' by 'phantom companions'. Hines was given a few hours off, long enough for his cameo...but his scene originally included Victoria. Deborah Watling was under contract to do a Dave Allen series, and dropped out of the special...and then they decided not to do that Allen show, so she got nothing! An early draft of the script featured Colin Baker as Maxil, from 'Arc of Infinity'. John Levene was supposed to play Benton, but turned it down when he showed up and realized his part was basically two lines as Troughton arrives and leaves('He's here, sir!, and 'That was the Doctor!'), which, after Levne left, were simply given to some generic, unnamed 'sergeant'.
Jon Pertwee saying "scarecrow" to his previous self cracks me up! :-D
One of the best episode endings in Doctor Who
Ahhhh, the TV special that made me fall in love with all things Doctor Who. Saw this as a young boy in the mid 90's at the public library. Then my true doctor was the eighth because the TV movie aired shortly after watch the five doctors...
My all time favorite of the classic Doctor Who movies. Some of the modern ones too. I have the VHS in a box somewhere.
0:58 "Goodbye Grandfathers!"
@HARRYRANTS Tom Baker said that at the time he was asked to take part in it but declined because from his pov, he hadn't that long since left the show after having played the Doctor for about 7 years & felt he needed to distance himself as an actor from the character & it was too soon to reprise the role, though he has since said he regretted not being in it.
The producers then used unaired footage of Tom as the Doctor from the story 'Shada' & came up with the idea of him being trapped by the 'time scoop' to explain his absence from the rest of the 5 Doctors story. It's just a pity he wasn't really in it properly, though some people feel if he _had_ been in it, his presence might have over shadowed the other actors playing the Doctor, I personally think it still could've worked, the writer, Terrance Dicks said, the og idea was to have the 4th Doctor be the one who was tempted by the power of Rassilon , with the other 4 Doctors freeing him at the end, could've also been good? but we'll never know, but I'm still happy with what we did get in the end.
Jon pertwee called Patrick troughton a scarecrow but he's the scarecrow (worzel gummidge)
This was one of my favorite episodes of the Classic Who. Yes, it would have been nice to have Misters Hartnell and Baker there, but Mister Hurndall did a good job of the First Doctor. Imagine if the Fifth Doctor had stayed and become Lord President.
I kind of wish they called up jeffrey beavers
Obviously Roger Delgado had passed
But having a multi master story In the same setting as a multi doctor one would be a great way to show the difference of the characters
So so brilliant to see three of the four best Dr's ever to play the coveted role!
Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee & Davison.
Along with Tom Baker (sadly absent from this), these four actors ARE the best Doctors.
Period!
Too bad that Susan didn't get to meet the 4th Doctor,who was trapped in the time vortex until he got freed by Rassilon after Borusa was defeated.
*shrug* It would still just be her grandfather, and she already knows him. :-)
0:52 okay... I just realized in The Day Of The Doctor, Ten said that to Eleven before he left. Ffs!
Are you sure it wasn't the War Doctor who said it to them both? I'm sure he followed it up with that comment about being half the man Clara was.
No, it was Ten - "I'm glad my future is in safe hands!" to eleven. War Doctor said about how they wouldn't retain their memories of this and that he says "At least for now, I am the doctor again!" and says to Clara the "half the man she is" joking on that he wanted another companion.
lyra lupin Yeah but he meant Clara! LOL
Sorry, you're wrong. Before the 10th Doctor left he referenced his final words "I don't Want To Go" rather than the 5ths last words from the 25th anniversary show.
@@theaussiebackflipboy He actually said both. He said "Glad to see my future's in safe hands," before remarking about how he needs a new destination, because "I don't wanna go" to Trenzalore.
I think it's best to see each regeneration as a slightly different person, like the regeneration process tweaks his mind and personality each time, this accounts for the way they treat each other and why they act like separate entities, each form lasts for a long time, lasting longer than we can tell from screen time, after spending time with a new mindset he just acts like a new person, finding it easier when he does talk to his past selves in those rare incidents. The first was more mature but regenerates and becomes more youthful, he feels more youthful and perhaps he is more inclined to being foolhardy. I like this because if you don't like the behaviour of a new Doctor it doesn't reflect on your favourite incarnation too much.
They are all different and all the same. Which is impossible, and that's what's so great.
Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart was right about the Doctor. Splendid fellows, all of them.
Thank you Terrance! You will be missed by all of us!
Of all the anniversary episodes this is probably the best of the bunch. The anniversary episodes are sopped to be when you look back and who's been along for the ride and this has it at its best. The five doctors had one way or another all 5 doctors and most of the compainions up till this point.
It's cool to know that Sarah Jane met Susan.

2:56 - So, the Timelords have a "HierSHARKy?" Is that like a hierarchy but with more teeth?
"Show me the money."
The only thing that pisses me off about this special is the fact that the 4th Doctor wasn't really present(Shada). Dammit Tom!!
It was good that Bessie, the yellow roadster the Doctor drove while he was working for Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart as his scientific advisor at UNIT, did get to be seen again after The Five Doctors. That car hasn‘t been seen in Doctor Who since the 7th Doctor‘s era.
A good ending to a good Multi Doctor Story who should have been better if Tom Baker and William Hartnell (Without wishing to offend you Mr Hurndall) were in it.
Hurndall passed away 7 months later and was never paid for his work on this film. I am unsure about his estate being paid.
You realize William Hartnell was dead at that point, right?
Besides, I thought Richard Hurndall did a far better job at playing the original Doctor than William Hartnell. Maybe it’s just Terrance Dicks’ superb writing coming through, but I much preferred Hurndall’s performance to Hartnell’s.
Also Tom didn’t appear because he was totally typecast and wanted to break the public’s very strong association of him with the part. The last thing that would have been good for his career at that point would be to return for the 20th anniversary only 2 years after leaving when he already was there for 7 years. All the news outlets and journalists would be screaming “Return of Tom Baker to Doctor Who!” It would have been terrible. If you really cared about Tom you’d know he made the right decision.
Besides, I think what JNT did was quite clever, using hitherto unseen footage from Shada to write Tom into the plot, even if we barely see him.
William Hartnell had passed away 8 years prior, but Hurndall did very well playing the First Doctor. Don't know why Tom Baker declined to appear.
Just my personal opinion, you don't have to agree with it.
If we pause at 0:37 we will notice that regeneration also affects height in The Doctor’s body, cause second is shorter than fifth.
Best closing theme across Who
My thinking is that Flavia is the mysterious woman who appeared in the End of Time. She would have been the Acting President at the start of the Time War and would have supervised the revival of Rassilon to be a wartime leader. It would have made sense for her to be increasingly disillusioned with Rassilon's conduct in office. Hence the long look she gives the Tenth Doctor.
The Four Doctors*
This special was called The Five Doctors, but Baker declined to appear, so they used footage from Shada (unaired at the time) and he was trapped in some wibbly wobbly time vortex thingy.
EmperorFrozenToes *The 3.5 Doctors
The Four Doctors is a Big Finish story.

My dad loves this scene, he loved it when he was young
I have not seen many clips from the classic era, although I did see the parody starring Rowan Atkinson. Hearing Pertwee say "I'll explain later" made me chuckle.
Classic era suggestions from somebody who saw them go out first time round as a kid in the awesome gothic era 70s! - check out The Ark in Space and the 4 or 5 stories after it - all great. Also see Pyramids of Mars and the Brain of Morbius. Image of the Fendahl good too. If you can forgive the effects, all these stories are great!
2:01 budget saving
That Dr shouldn't have asked 'you're the latest one?' because theoretically in the past and in the future all the doctors already exist
I've been thinking about how the various versions of the Doctor seem able to cross over with themselves whenever they want to and I've come to this conclusion:
Every version of the Doctor has their own timeline. When a Doctor "regenerates", it's actually the start of a new timeline, allowing the previous version to continue his life (and the actor to grow older) while the current Doctor lives the new timeline. As such, with 13 different doctors, there are 13 different timelines and each doctor continues to live in his or her own.
This isn't what happens, the body just dies and the cells regenerate.
1:30 the 3rd DR dropping “we’ve had the times of my lives havnt we Sarah Jane” is a classic Dr move to fk with peoples heads in paradox situations. It’s probly like the time lord equivalents of an earth knocknock joke!

I dunno what instrument the Radiophonic workshop at The BBC used for the program’s theme back then , whether it was a synthesiser or keyboard of some sort but this was and still is my favourite version of the title music.
"immortality is a curse..."
Except The Doctor is effectively immortal now, so that idea did not work out so well...
The irony of John pertwee calling Patrick a scarecrow...
“He knew very well that immortality is a curse“ ... apparently Chris Chibnall does not know this very well
The 1996 TV Movie is what made me a fan of Doctor WHO ion 1996. This episode is the 2nd Doctor WHO I ever saw. Damn good!
I always liked Peter Davidson's title music the best.
(i.e. Tom Baker's and Colin Baker's)
To St, no it was subtly different in places.
not for the end credit music
The end credits music begins with the 1963 theme with the pitch increased to match the 1980s theme when it transitions into it in the middle 8.
His name is Davison.
Though not watching the classic era this looks really good, Doctor number 3 especially
