@@RobboRobbo I think he was more referring to the fact that if Eccleston hadn’t absolutely nailed the role when the show came back, it may not have continued, and thus we may have never gotten a tenth Doctor.
@@labratt3742 yeah ik but really we wouldnt have gotten doctor who if it wasn’t for hartnell, if hartnell never played the doctor, doctor who wouldn’t exist and wouldn’t be where it is today
Eccleston was mine, but once I got past the new Doctor grief (always hated the new ones at first cuz grieving the past one. Eccleston was my first, so MY Doctor forever), Tennant quickly became a very close second.
I got into Doctor Who around “girl in the fireplace” and I’ve been hooked ever since. He was literally my doctor and I couldn’t wait for every Saturday night just to see what he’d do next. The good ol days of Dr Who aye
His ability to switch from loveable goof to ice-cold spirit of vengeance in a heartbeat made him ridiculously captivating to watch. I think this is where my love of the Terror-Hero trope started
He's a genius actor who is able to touch the hearts of the people he entertains. Catherine Tate, too. You can tell they love to entertain people and strive to be excellent at it.
@@daveorgana628 true, but imo 1 till 6 was class. 7 and 8 were alright. 9 was an improvement. 10 was class and I stopped watching on 11 and watch every now and again. It just doesn't hit the same unfortunately
9th Doctor was the foundation, 10th was the most popular, 11th brought it to the U.S. (& "my Doctor"), 12th was the definitive. 13 was a reboot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@Rocksteady72a I bet 9th would have blown our minds if we gave him another season. Also, I wish Paul mcgann returned for the 50th anniversary instead of John hurt. Don't get me wrong I love John hurt and I loved his portrayal of the doctor but the fact that Paul mcgann was literally available at the time and had literally shot a minisode for it, is sad. The story line would have made complete sense still too. He had so much potential to make a great doctor but sadly never got the chance.
I absolutely love how David puts the funny- charm in the Doctor, but when it comes to the Time war, or important decisions, you literally get the goosebumps because how he makes you feel. He brings the funny, and seriousness of the Doctor and that's why I love him!

@@Alesiopdv of course, the pilot is the pilot, but the second season of Tennant for me contains the largest number of cringy moments, like "School reunion", the one with Abzorbaloff, "Fear her", that woman in TV shouting "I'm hungry!!"; when he snogs Pompadour in front of Rose watching him on the other side of the fireplace, and boasting about it to a servant with a vulgar move towards the fireplace's mantle. I don't feel and don't believe his acting sadness after he lost Rose. I can see the acting, it doesn't feel natural. And every time later when he suddenly remembers that he need to become sad when someone mentions Rose, it is acting, not real. Villains are so... typical villainish, with crazy laughter and stuff, and so stupid. Resembles old hero movies. Pathetic. I almost never rewatch this season. Brr...
"-nd tucked away at the bottom is one ol' stupid satsuma- who wants a satsuma?" *screams of rage followed closely by an alien falling to his death* "No second chances." The immediate switch in attitude is an amazing introduction to the slight amorality that Tennant brought to the Doctor.
Wasn't there a series retcon by season 5 that meant that Amy couldn't remember any major doctor related event that happened beforehand? Idk if that would include the Olympics but it definitely included the Dalek invasion at the end of season 4.
@@orsonlepherd7064 Yes, there was a recon that virtually set the world back to zero on knowing aliens exist. However, when Amy remembered the Doctor, bringing him back, she restored his personal timeline. Including all his adventures. So yeah, the Olympics still happened, but now there are two seperate timelines. One where Amy met the Doctor as a kid, and the other where their adventures together didn't technically start until after the Pond wedding.
The Tenth Doctor has a lot of rage under his humorous exterior. He needs his companion to maintain his kindness. Left alone, he would wreck havoc across time and space, unleashing his anger upon everything and anyone. The Tenth is probably closest to what will happen if the Doctor uses his powers for destruction instead of saving people.
Tennant will always and forever be my doctor. Sure, everyone else is also excellent in the role but Tennant is just unmatched. Absolutely love him, it was such an amazing time in television.
So since 1963 Tennant is the best Doctor Who. How many have you watched since 1963 as I would love to hear this as you where not even around then so you don't know what was liked then and what is liked now but what is liked now does not mean the past was not.
I like to think he took the family wanting to be immortal personally. Because he is the only one who knows how painful it is to be immortal and that it is a privilege to be a mortal.
That bit with the Doctor and the Cyberman with the broken inhibitor is so underrated. Something about empathy he brought to the Doctor really had me on board with the show in my youth. The “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry” always cut me to my core. Such a brilliant performance from beginning to end.
I didn't really like the regeneration until that point. He looked like a vagrant. I agree though, the sarcasm and charachter Tennant put in is what made him the best.
"I think it is customary to have an imaginary friend only during one's childhood. You are to be congratulated on your persistence" ha, that line always gets me whenever I watch it.
People can complain about David coming back but the truth is that Ten will ALWAYS be *the* Doctor for so many there's just something insanely special about him it brings tears to my eyes honestly I just remember better days
@@SStupendous I think the human aspect was an interesting arc to explore. I mean mythologically, Timelords swore to never interfere but they would still carry out secret missions to stop certain events. The Doctor just decided to do it as a full time job lol.
Eccelston and tennant were my doctors, and they were just amazing, even if you had a bad episode, you’d still have fun watching because they were so into the role and were enjoying it themselves, that’s why I love capaldi too haha
The best bit about the tenth doctor and rose is that they are like children sometimes. (This was in the episode ‘Tooth and claw’ when they were locked in a room with a werewolf) “I know OMG we’re in a house with a werewolf and the queen AAAaaAa”
I miss the proper grittiness of the 9 and 10 era. There was something 'real world' about it that you could reflect with personally. Solid acting, writing and story arcs
The parting scene of Rose and the Tenth Doctor remains gut wrenching every time I watch it. The Doctor is hardly visible, a ghostly looking abborition, and therefore untouchable; like he was dead even after he sharpened his image for Rose. Perfectly executed as his hologram faded out before he could respond likewise to sobbing Rose; that he loved her. Back to the reality on the TARDIS and alone because of his sacrifice to save Rose. It ends with a tear streaking down his cheek. Masterfully written scene of the heartbreak of unrequited love.
I only just realised: Don't Blink is an example of the Bootstrap Paradox. The transcript is sent into the past, where the doctor reads off of an autocue to give the proper information, the video of which then travels forwards in time at 1 second per second until it is interacted with, and a transcript written of the conversation, which then gets sent into the past, where the doctor reads off of an autocue to give the proper information, the video of which then travels forwards in time at 1 second per second until it is interacted with, and a transcript written of the conversation, which then gets sent into the past... As the doctor said: time is a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey... stuff.
one thing i found odd is that 12 and 13's eras haven't had that much wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. the time travel is obvious always present, but it hasn't been explored that much recently
My view on “wibbly wobbly, timey wimey… stuff” is that the Time Lord concept of time does not translate well into English and that is the closest he could come.
David Tennant always wanted to play as the role of doctor who.. This is why he as the 10th doctor enjoyed his role so much that many fans just love him, I cannot deny, but this doctor will always stay as my favorite
I've been into Doctor Who since about 1984, after my Mom's boyfriend introduced me to it when I was 7. And Tennants Doctor is by far my favorite. His performance is enhanced by the best writing of the entire series in my opinion.
Ten was an absolutely *BRUTAL* Doctor when he ran out of patience. Shades of the Time War showing through, despite his efforts to forget about the War Doctor. He may despise using weapons to kill, but never for a MOMENT think he will hesitate to use the environment or anything else available around him to kill you if you piss him off and you waste your One Chance to run.
I wonder if the show will ever capture so many hearts as it did during this era. Russel T Davies knew how to get the nation talking because of his stories. Doctor Who needs to be event television again.
They don’t care about the show anymore. they changed the character to a woman purely so the media wouldn’t cancel them. I have no problem with women acting in these kind of shows. But it’s a known fact that ever since Jodie Whittaker took over the show has declined in popularity. The show used to be a household name.
I watched blink so many times when I was younger and never understood why it was such a highly rated and loved episode, I prefered midnight and family of blood. But listening to the doctor talk to sally sparrow 40 years in the future there and realising why he couldn't tell them what to do because the angels stopped him from writing the transcript. What a well written episode.
Hindsight being 20-20... They should have had him, in full costume, light the Olympic Flame at the 2012 Olympics, and thereby fulfill the prophecy that they made themselves.
There was lots of calls for it online, but as said, they did at least get SOMEONE who played the Doctor to do it, just wrong actor. Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey, something must have kept 10 away, so 11 stepped in. The Doctor carried the torch in 2012, what's the harm in it not QUITE being the same regeneration, eh?
I'd forgotten how much darkness ten added to the role. Still kind, still the doctor, but hurt and broken and raging, and just a little carried away with power.
David Tenant was my 1st and last Doctor. I didn’t even know what I was watching and what a Doctor Who was. I was just attracted to the adventure and acting. I remember crying hard when Rose and the Doctor parted.
I never quite bonded with Rose and 10 the same way everyone around me claimed they did - I loved them because it was my first experience with the show, but even at the age of five I liked her better with 9 (I think it was probably because I missed him so much). It all changed in a moment though when I witnessed the absolutely harrowing screams of Ten as Rose fell into the void. I wouldn't be here without this show and it's moments like that that show me just how important life is to live to the full. I find David's acting to be his best when he's utterly destroyed... and Doomsay certainly wasn't the last we'd see of that side of 10.
"Rude and not ginger." "I DON'T KNOOOW!" "Allons-y!" "Blood control! :D" "Sorry, that is the Lion King." "This new hand... is a fighting hand!" Those have to be my favorite quotes by David hahaha
Back in 2005, David worried he would become known as _'The Thirty Second Doctor',_ given Series 2 wasn't actually commissioned. I wonder what he would have thought had he have known one day a video consisting just of his best moments would be 50 minutes long.
I'm going to honest- the second time I read your comment I did it correctly, but the first time going over it my brain went "Wait, there was a fear the producers would fit in 22 other individual doctors before him to make him the 32nd doctor?"
What I like about this is that in his first episode, he decides that he's going to be a no-second-chances sort of man. And by golly the writers try their hardest to keep him that way. And I don't think that was ever shown as well as in the Family of Blood/Human Nature stories where he gave them a chance by turning himself human.
Tennant was definitely the best Doctor of the modern series, and his run on the show was the golden age of Doctor Who. Nothing since has even come close to being as good.
40:52 "Dalek-Humans show increased levels of serotonin!" Within the human brain, a biological cause of aggression is the firing of the amygdala. Serotonin is a neurochemical which inhibits the firing of the amygdala. Ergo, an increase in serotonin leads to a decrease in aggressive thoughts/behaviours.
The first time I saw this scene and the kiss I thought, "Ay up..." Then I read that sure enough, they were having a relationship at the time. No way that snog was fake!
The Doctor: But that implies, in this big grand scheme of gods and devils, that she's just a victim. Well, I've seen a lot of this universe. I've seen fake gods and bad gods and demi-gods and would-be gods. I've had the whole pantheon. if I believe in one thing... just one thing... I believe in her. ― Tenth Doctor 18:46
grew up with this man as the doctor as a 97 kid and he plays the doctor perfectly. bloody brilliant. an amazing actor in general too and doctor who is and has been inspiring.
10 is no stranger to genocide... and is willing to commit it if a species is determined to be hostile, destructive, and aggressive to the point of threatening genocides of their own. That doesn't mean he's happy about it. He's very much "Pay Evil Unto Evil", and hates that he sees it as necessary.
And Catherine Gate’s acting chops also deserve praise here too, the horror on her face. Donna was right, the Tenth Doctor needed someone with him to remind him of his mercy when he forgot himself.
Can we stop for a moment to appreciate how unbelievably awesome the string section were when playing their part in 10's theme. Seriously, give it a real good listen, and tell me it doesn't make your blood pump faster.
David Tennant, in my opinion, gave one of the best screen performances of all time as The Doctor. He is the best Doctor, and as far as I am concerned, he will never be matched.
I disagree on both, he just became an icon due to it and he and the revival came around at such a time to imprint on people. Capaldi gave much better performances as the Doctor though he isn't my favourite Doctor
30:19 Gallifrey's first mention in the revival! And a fitting scene too, as the Time Lord Victorious awakens... The most pivotal scenes of Ten's Time Lord Victorious arc are accompanied, always, with the motif of fire and water. The Runaway Bride, The Family of Blood, Last of the Time Lords, The Fires of Pompeii, The Waters of Mars. _"Fire in the water",_ the Twelfth Doctor recounts. _"Fire in the water."_ 31:10 The true constant companion of Ten; in those moments of godly rage, he becomes amongst the very elements. Or thinks as much, at least.
David Tennant is so young in his first episode! I am so used to the world weary, crow's feet David Tennant now but he has continued to get better and better! One of my favorite Tennant moments was his discussion about Walmart and Target at a convention panel. It was a bit of the Doctor in real life for me.
“Rose Tyler...I love you.” The line every Who fan wept over not hearing...still a better romance than Twilight. Rose and Ten...one of the Best sci-fi romances of all time...and yet they only kissed Once...and what A Kiss.
I've seen the Eccelston > Tennant transformation literally well over a dozen times. And i can't lie it still gets me everytime. I mean rewound this just to see it again.
The part with Sally, the Cyberman, still makes me tear up. Imagine having your entire being stolen behind a computer chip, and having everything that you've become suddenly gets thrown at you like a boulder
Tenth was my doctor. The first episode I accidentally saw on TV was "Gridlock". I immediately fell in love and decided to watch this strange "new" series from the beginning. And still Tenth was my favorite.
Same here. I stumbled on it one day. A few years prior, a friend explained the show to me and it sounded nuts. Boy was I wrong. Ever since then, I've taken people's suggestions to me more seriously.
For me doctor 10 David Tennant was the best. I fell in love with him like a teenager. Maybe you laugh but that's how it was. He played doctor 10 amazing. He put in this character all the feelings you can find in a man.
"Witchcraft" "Timelord" The fear in his eyes is awesome. Timelords are known throughout the universe, but thought to be extinct. Now you are face to face with that....
Little detail i never got. When the tanks are about to fire on the spider web sip the person on the radio said "orders from mr saxon". Great writing that is.
Ten is my Doctor, he was awesome and dark and human. I love him from the moment when he was funny talking about satsumas and then became dark and kill de Sicorax, David was incredible in that type of transitions
For Tennant this was not just a role but a childhood dream . We can just see the passion he puts into his incarnation

I don't understand any of this and every other own but thats ok
This is without a doubt, the best show I’ve ever watched. I just wish I could see it for the first time again.
I love this sentiment
The parting scene of Rose and the Tenth Doctor remains gut wrenching every time I watch it.
The Doctor is hardly visible, a ghostly looking abborition, and therefore untouchable; like he was dead even after he sharpened his image for Rose.
Perfectly executed as his hologram faded out before he could respond likewise to sobbing Rose; that he loved her. Back to the reality on the TARDIS and alone because of his sacrifice to save Rose. It ends with a tear streaking down his cheek. Masterfully written scene of the heartbreak of unrequited love.
I miss the
- I am talking!
- AND I'M NOT LISTENING!
scene. That was the moment, when David Tennant became the Doctor for me.
Sally Phelan's Cyberman scene always makes me cry, this human moment to show the inhumanity of the Cybermen just rips my heart out.
I only just realised: Don't Blink is an example of the Bootstrap Paradox. The transcript is sent into the past, where the doctor reads off of an autocue to give the proper information, the video of which then travels forwards in time at 1 second per second until it is interacted with, and a transcript written of the conversation, which then gets sent into the past, where the doctor reads off of an autocue to give the proper information, the video of which then travels forwards in time at 1 second per second until it is interacted with, and a transcript written of the conversation, which then gets sent into the past...
As the doctor said: time is a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey... stuff.
one thing i found odd is that 12 and 13's eras haven't had that much wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff. the time travel is obvious always present, but it hasn't been explored that much recently
My view on “wibbly wobbly, timey wimey… stuff” is that the Time Lord concept of time does not translate well into English and that is the closest he could come.
@@codieomeallain6635 what language does it translate into?
@@samme1024 Perhaps none at all other then the Time Lord's language.
@@samme1024 Well, the Time Lord language obviously.
You know he was amazing when a video of his best clips spanning the runtime of a full episode is only part 1 😉
It even lasts seven minutes *more* than a full episode!
David Tennant always wanted to play as the role of doctor who.. This is why he as the 10th doctor enjoyed his role so much that many fans just love him, I cannot deny, but this doctor will always stay as my favorite
I've been into Doctor Who since about 1984, after my Mom's boyfriend introduced me to it when I was 7. And Tennants Doctor is by far my favorite. His performance is enhanced by the best writing of the entire series in my opinion.
I still find it chilling how The Doctor just stands unmoved as he commits genocide on the Racnoss until Donna makes him snap out of it...
Ten committed more than one genocide
He gave them a chance to run. They made their choice
Ten was an absolutely *BRUTAL* Doctor when he ran out of patience. Shades of the Time War showing through, despite his efforts to forget about the War Doctor. He may despise using weapons to kill, but never for a MOMENT think he will hesitate to use the environment or anything else available around him to kill you if you piss him off and you waste your One Chance to run.
He would've stood there until he drowned. He was thinking about rose 😢
He is a veteran of a war which is described as “every moment of time burning all at once”. I doubt that is the first genocide he committed or watched.
I wonder if the show will ever capture so many hearts as it did during this era. Russel T Davies knew how to get the nation talking because of his stories. Doctor Who needs to be event television again.
Hey, fancy seeing you here 😜😂
@@darthyoda0662 Hello! :)
Exactly
Amen to that! And Neil Gaiman needs to write a few more episodes.
Well, with the recent news there is at least a chance this might happen again, with Russell T Davies at the helm once again :D
Tennant was MY Doctor, it'll never be the same without him, he lived the role and made it perfect, his shoes are gonna be super hard to fill
No one will fill that role that he left
They don’t care about the show anymore. they changed the character to a woman purely so the media wouldn’t cancel them. I have no problem with women acting in these kind of shows. But it’s a known fact that ever since Jodie Whittaker took over the show has declined in popularity. The show used to be a household name.
@@benjamindavis4974 Capaldi was decent in the beginning of his run but it really fell off
@@j.r1158 I don’t even care if a women never played in it. I still love it, stupid people, just can’t believe it
Boy do I have some news for you buddy
I watched blink so many times when I was younger and never understood why it was such a highly rated and loved episode, I prefered midnight and family of blood. But listening to the doctor talk to sally sparrow 40 years in the future there and realising why he couldn't tell them what to do because the angels stopped him from writing the transcript. What a well written episode.
The scene where he has to say goodbye to rose will always bring me to tears
Hindsight being 20-20...
They should have had him, in full costume, light the Olympic Flame at the 2012 Olympics, and thereby fulfill the prophecy that they made themselves.
Tbf Matt Smith did carry the flame in 2012
There was lots of calls for it online, but as said, they did at least get SOMEONE who played the Doctor to do it, just wrong actor. Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey, something must have kept 10 away, so 11 stepped in. The Doctor carried the torch in 2012, what's the harm in it not QUITE being the same regeneration, eh?
@@Blazieth a b.s. cop out
I commented on this myself a few years back
The nostalgia when Sarah sees the tardis is absolutely the best.
That Cyberman scene still gives me chills. Modern DW doesn’t hold a candle to this incredible storytelling!
I'd forgotten how much darkness ten added to the role. Still kind, still the doctor, but hurt and broken and raging, and just a little carried away with power.
Capaldi has that same energy but with a more unalpologetic appraoch
I love the fact that Davids doctor was kind and compassionate, but also not afraid to be ruthless
If it were up to me, this video would be the length of tennant's entire era because he was absolutely amazing
I love David. He was amazing as the Doctor. We were so fortunate to watch him.
Literally could just put every second he was on screen.
Absolute diamond. David Tennant is a one-of-a-kind talent.
That goodbye scene between The Doctor and Rose will forever get tears flowing from my eyes. I’m such an emotional wreck…
David Tenant was my 1st and last Doctor. I didn’t even know what I was watching and what a Doctor Who was. I was just attracted to the adventure and acting. I remember crying hard when Rose and the Doctor parted.
god.....doomsday is such a depressing episode...it´s so depressingly well acted that you almost forget it´s a TV show
I never quite bonded with Rose and 10 the same way everyone around me claimed they did - I loved them because it was my first experience with the show, but even at the age of five I liked her better with 9 (I think it was probably because I missed him so much). It all changed in a moment though when I witnessed the absolutely harrowing screams of Ten as Rose fell into the void. I wouldn't be here without this show and it's moments like that that show me just how important life is to live to the full. I find David's acting to be his best when he's utterly destroyed... and Doomsay certainly wasn't the last we'd see of that side of 10.
It also has the best song in the whole series, Doomsday is incredible
Made me cry like a child first time I watched it. Like for 30 mins straight
It's very sad
"Rude and not ginger."
"I DON'T KNOOOW!"
"Allons-y!"
"Blood control! :D"
"Sorry, that is the Lion King."
"This new hand... is a fighting hand!"
Those have to be my favorite quotes by David hahaha
@The Pokemon Master and Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Yes 😁
allonsy Alonso! I’ve always wanted to say that! 😅
"Very Arthur Dent"
Yes! The fighting hand was absolutely brilliant, especially with the American southern accent!🤣💞
And all in one episode! They were really setting David up to be the best Doctor of NuWho!
Back in 2005, David worried he would become known as _'The Thirty Second Doctor',_ given Series 2 wasn't actually commissioned.
I wonder what he would have thought had he have known one day a video consisting just of his best moments would be 50 minutes long.
Part 1* not just all his best moments. This is just part 1😁
He probably does know. I can't imagine a former Doctor isn't subscribed to the Doctor Who channel.
@@michaelramsey82 especially someone like David who has always loved the show, and still does
I'm going to honest- the second time I read your comment I did it correctly, but the first time going over it my brain went "Wait, there was a fear the producers would fit in 22 other individual doctors before him to make him the 32nd doctor?"
@@genzu6388 where the hell is part 2 i need it
David Tennant's Doctor and Rose's last goodbye always has me in tears.
"im burning up a sun just to say goodbye,, what a line this moment always gets me
David Tenant will always be the Doctor! Loved him in the role and watch his episodes over and over!
I just love that its 51 min long and its part one 😅 explains everything about tenth doctor
“Yeah well, upgrade this.”
If a line isn’t broken, don’t fix it..
What I like about this is that in his first episode, he decides that he's going to be a no-second-chances sort of man. And by golly the writers try their hardest to keep him that way. And I don't think that was ever shown as well as in the Family of Blood/Human Nature stories where he gave them a chance by turning himself human.
Tennant was definitely the best Doctor of the modern series, and his run on the show was the golden age of Doctor Who. Nothing since has even come close to being as good.
Facts.
40:52 "Dalek-Humans show increased levels of serotonin!"
Within the human brain, a biological cause of aggression is the firing of the amygdala. Serotonin is a neurochemical which inhibits the firing of the amygdala. Ergo, an increase in serotonin leads to a decrease in aggressive thoughts/behaviours.
"who are you?"
"I'm the doctor and I just snogged madam de Pompadour"
I've never watched Doctor Who but that was pure gold.
I loved how he was more impressed by her gardening skills than anything else
The first time I saw this scene and the kiss I thought, "Ay up..." Then I read that sure enough, they were having a relationship at the time. No way that snog was fake!
The Doctor: But that implies, in this big grand scheme of gods and devils, that she's just a victim. Well, I've seen a lot of this universe. I've seen fake gods and bad gods and demi-gods and would-be gods. I've had the whole pantheon. if I believe in one thing... just one thing... I believe in her.
― Tenth Doctor 18:46
grew up with this man as the doctor as a 97 kid and he plays the doctor perfectly. bloody brilliant. an amazing actor in general too
and doctor who is and has been inspiring.
This show is brilliant. I love it. It’s so refreshing to see something unlike any other show. I’m a new fan!
Ha. Let me know how that goes
31:51 the shame on his face as he snaps out of God mode, jesus christ.
_What a performance._
10 is no stranger to genocide... and is willing to commit it if a species is determined to be hostile, destructive, and aggressive to the point of threatening genocides of their own. That doesn't mean he's happy about it. He's very much "Pay Evil Unto Evil", and hates that he sees it as necessary.
And Catherine Gate’s acting chops also deserve praise here too, the horror on her face. Donna was right, the Tenth Doctor needed someone with him to remind him of his mercy when he forgot himself.
"Fantastic gardener!!" Doctor getting excited about plants. Doctor your Crowley is showing
David Tennant was my favorite doctor so far, but each doctor something special to the role!
I just wish we could get him back full time as The Doctor again. 🥺
Well he’s returning
I have news for you
Can we stop for a moment to appreciate how unbelievably awesome the string section were when playing their part in 10's theme. Seriously, give it a real good listen, and tell me it doesn't make your blood pump faster.
David Tennant, in my opinion, gave one of the best screen performances of all time as The Doctor. He is the best Doctor, and as far as I am concerned, he will never be matched.
Totally agree!
I disagree on both, he just became an icon due to it and he and the revival came around at such a time to imprint on people. Capaldi gave much better performances as the Doctor though he isn't my favourite Doctor
Doctor Who is one of the few things that have made my life worth living. Thank you all for the hope for humanity that you inspire.
30:19 Gallifrey's first mention in the revival! And a fitting scene too, as the Time Lord Victorious awakens...
The most pivotal scenes of Ten's Time Lord Victorious arc are accompanied, always, with the motif of fire and water. The Runaway Bride, The Family of Blood, Last of the Time Lords, The Fires of Pompeii, The Waters of Mars. _"Fire in the water",_ the Twelfth Doctor recounts. _"Fire in the water."_
31:10 The true constant companion of Ten; in those moments of godly rage, he becomes amongst the very elements. Or thinks as much, at least.
David Tennant is so young in his first episode! I am so used to the world weary, crow's feet David Tennant now but he has continued to get better and better! One of my favorite Tennant moments was his discussion about Walmart and Target at a convention panel. It was a bit of the Doctor in real life for me.
“Rose Tyler...I love you.” The line every Who fan wept over not hearing...still a better romance than Twilight. Rose and Ten...one of the Best sci-fi romances of all time...and yet they only kissed Once...and what A Kiss.
This show still makes me cry 13 years after discovering it
when he mocks satan after he breaks the jars, sicks his tongue out and wiggles his fingers i missed that all these years til now ahhaa
On everything I love, that "FIGHTIN' HAND" line SOLD ME. PERIOD.
I've seen the Eccelston > Tennant transformation literally well over a dozen times. And i can't lie it still gets me everytime. I mean rewound this just to see it again.
That scene from The Family of Blood always gets to me. Tennent really portrays that cold fury really well to me.
Billie Piper says she remembers her goodbye scene with Tennant vividly
10: _"Don't blink!"_
13: _"Don't forget to click below!"_
The part with Sally, the Cyberman, still makes me tear up. Imagine having your entire being stolen behind a computer chip, and having everything that you've become suddenly gets thrown at you like a boulder
Tenth was my doctor. The first episode I accidentally saw on TV was "Gridlock". I immediately fell in love and decided to watch this strange "new" series from the beginning. And still Tenth was my favorite.
Same here. I stumbled on it one day.
A few years prior, a friend explained the show to me and it sounded nuts.
Boy was I wrong.
Ever since then, I've taken people's suggestions to me more seriously.
Dont blink, put a shiver down my spine..
The things i would do to get a competent writing and production team back on Doctor Who is unfathomable
My favourite part is when he the Doctor is with Donna. So many good laughs and so much crying.
For me doctor 10 David Tennant was the best. I fell in love with him like a teenager. Maybe you laugh but that's how it was. He played doctor 10 amazing. He put in this character all the feelings you can find in a man.
‘’They keep on trying to split us up but they never ever will’’Rose Tyler
😭
"Witchcraft"
"Timelord"
The fear in his eyes is awesome. Timelords are known throughout the universe, but thought to be extinct. Now you are face to face with that....
I think I can remember the moment when every New Who Doctor made me cry.
And for Ten this is was with the Cyberman.
Little detail i never got. When the tanks are about to fire on the spider web sip the person on the radio said "orders from mr saxon". Great writing that is.
Ten is my Doctor, he was awesome and dark and human.
I love him from the moment when he was funny talking about satsumas and then became dark and kill de Sicorax, David was incredible in that type of transitions
I mean his era of the show was literally the best era, it made Doctor Who famous to new viewers.
“Very Arthur Dent. Now there was a nice man” still one of my favorite references through all the seasons
