@@ajhorniman8285he is but the accent he puts on in this episode isn't his normal way of speaking, you can hear it in interviews and stuff there's a bit of a difference
In "Father's Day", Eccleston speaking to baby Rose and ironically telling her not to change history when she grows up strongly reminded me of one of the Doctors from the classic series. I won't say which one to stay completely spoiler-free.
She knighted Rose "Dame Rose of the Powell Estates," which is where Jackie's (and previously Rose's) apartment is. Must have asked what to knight them as.
THIS! This story really put the nail in the coffin for me liking Rose and her dynamic with the Doctor (especially the Tenth). They're sooo bratty here, it's really annoying. Definitely Team Victoria on that front.
@@NicoleM_radiantbaby I feel that Rose and Nine acted as a brake on each other's worst impulses ("Dalek," "Father's Day"), SPOILERS but we see here that Rose and Ten exacerbate each other's worst impulses. (I realize they're the same people, but something about what they both went through in the regeneration process has changed them.)
@@NicoleM_radiantbaby honestly I love it for that. It's that kind of disconnected behaviour that I love a certain future doctor for which is just fun to watch. Potentially that's a little bit sadistic but I find it quite amusing. s2 just has a couple episodes that are on the weaker side (including new earth imo) but out of the first 4 it's my favourite but that might be nostalgia. fact is, in germany (where I come from) s2 is actually age restricted with 'fsk 16' so I needed to wait years before I could lend it from a video store and when I did it was the greatest feeling ever. so potentially thats mixed in there but I love it nonetheless.
Many years ago I was meeting with one of my son's school reps and was wearing a Doctor Who t-shirt. She looked at it and said "Oh, my brother was in that! He played a werewolf who attacked Queen Victoria". I started (quietly) geeking out. It was especially surprising as we live in California. ☺️
Basically, the perception filter doesn't actually change what you see, but it does make it such that you simply won't notice the thing unless you know what you're actually looking for. It redirects your attention away essentially. It gets showcased really well in the following seasons.
Yes Rose and the Doctor saved the Queens life but they were acting as if it was an adventure and were more excited about the thrill rather than concerned that people were dying. The last person you do that in front of is Queen Victoria who at this point of her life had been widowed for 18 years yet she never got over her husband’s death. The Queen was justified in her actions.
It''s not a highland accent or David's own Scottish accent used in this episode. Scotland has multiple regional accents just as England does. Actually David's own accent is a light Paisley accent (although he was born in Bathgate, he was raised in Paisley). The Paisley accent is closer to a Glasgow accent in the west of Scotland. He has lived in London for many years and has an English wife and children and his own accent is quite light. His accent in this episode is more like an Edinburgh accent and is intentionally overexaggerated for effect. David also made the acting choice that the Doctor occasionally reverts to his Estuary (south English) accent and it isn't consistent. BTW Stephen Moffat the modern Who writer & showrunner is also from Paisley, Scotland.
If you have a good ear, this video shows that the accent he uses in Tooth and Claw is a different Scottish accent than his own accent. ruclips.net/video/6p9ONIaG39Y/видео.html
That scream when you asked 'what's that sound' - that's a vixen's scream. Scared the absolute hell out of me the first time I heard one in the middle of the night. I've lived around foxes my entire life and never heard one scream before, but she went at it every night for a week. Must have finally got herself some, because it's been quiet ever since.
During much of Classic Who the Tardis traveled at random (blamed on a faulty navigation system, though it was later admitted that the Doctor didnt really know how to navigate). Over the years the Doctor gained some control, but it became more that the Tardis was really in control of where the Doctor went.
Not fully true your right about the navigation part but infact it was the first two Doctors that had no control over the TARDIS it was from the Third Doctor onwards until the show's end in 1989 that the Doctor had complete control then when the show returned in 2005 it created some crap idea that it's all been the TARDIS it's a machine it's not a living organism.
@@dorianmichaelis1727 Just like “This’ll be the best Christmas Watford’s ever had” so many American reactors just do not get the British references in the show, which is understandable but also sucks lol.
If I remember it correctly the opening fight scene was choreographed by the guy that did the fights for Batman begins. Love this episode it’s so much fun every time I watch it
The Doctor using the alias of McCrimmon is a reference to a companion of the Second Doctor. Arguably the first companion the Doctor had romantic tension with.
@@SGlitz Both Patrick Troughton and Frazer Hines said they were acting as if the Doctor and Jamie were a couple. Mostly as a way to have fun on set but it has the subtextual meaning that the Doctor and Jamie fancy each other.
Not only that, but Pauline Collins (Queen Vic) almost became a companion in Jamie's era (she was asked to continue her guest character and decided to pass on it).
@@alexsimpkin5620 Um I don't know where your getting your weird information from but your wrong Patrick and Frazer had never said anything of a sort infact in one of the old Patrick Troughton interviews he always described his character of the Doctor the Doctor along with the other Classic Doctor actors as a-sexual and a father figure in the 1960's you would had been arrested or sent to the mad house for being homosexual. The Doctor and Jamie were friends nothing more.
Well, actually, a Scotsman playing an alien with an English accent pretending to be a Scotsman. Tennant modeled the Doctor's accent on Rose's to imply that the newly regenerated Doctor "imprinted" on her accent, although the Doctor's accent isn't as strong as Rose's (for example, he would never say "free hundred years ago," as Rose does in this episode).
I LOVE Queen Victoria’s acting she really sells this role she slayed And this order of monks is so interesting to me I want to know more about them “The hand of god?” “No. The fist of man.” DHAJFND THAT LINE GOES SO HARDDDDDD Edit: I also absolutely love the implication that the royal family are canonically werewolves
The Classic Doctor couldn’t steer the TARDIS. In fact we learn later in Classic he’d flunked his driver test. He’s gotten better over the years and incarnations but if he is not focused he can still get it wrong. Like Nine when he landed with Rose 12 months later instead of 12 hours later. The first doctor never knew where the TARDIS would land. He had no idea how to control his vehicle.
A bit of behind the scenes fun, apparently it was planned to have the Doctor and Rose fake Scottish accents, but forget about them once the action starts. Unfortunately, Billie's poor fake accent was so bad that it is ended quickly, but you can tell the Doctor keeps doing one until the werewolf plot gets going.
also the theory behind perception filters will be explained but the tardis does not always obey these laws. my personal headcannon is that the tardis' filter is highly unstable because of [redacted].
@@anthonybernacchi2732 well, thats not really... the perception filters work different in nuwho than explained in 73 yards, thats all I'm going to say. The show is 60 years old, continuity changes between the decades slightly and honestly I can't blame the writers, it's a minefield with dr who
@@anthonybernacchi2732 He's already seen 73 Yards.... The 73 yards depth of field could be explained by Ruby's glasses. If the apparition came within 73 yards, Ruby could see her more clearly. When she was older, and Ruby went to bed without her glasses, the apparition could get closer and still be blurred.
Please do consider reacting to Torchwood - it's got some of my favourite DW world stories, and series 3 is one of the best things I've seen on UK TV ever, but I personally loved it from series 1 episode 1. I quite understand if you can't fit it in your schedule, though. I've really enjoyed your reactions so far.
Hey Ugo, I'm a huge Doctor Who fan and I really love your reactions. It is FANTASTIC to rewatch the show with your reactions and impressions of a new Doctor Who fan. Season 2 has some of my favorite episodes in the entire series, every week I look forward to check your new videos excited to see you closer to them. Are you thinking of reacting to more shows? I'd really love it if you could react to Agents of SHIELD and/or Young Justice. They're my all time favorite super hero shows and very underrated.
Harriet Jones knew about Torchwood but she told the UNIT general that she knows she's not really supposed to know about it. UNIT is funded by the United Nations (so it's an international organization), while Torchwood is funded by the Crown (British only). Queen Victoria is famous for saying "we are not amused", although apparently she never actually said it. I hope you check out the Torchwood spinoff after finishing series 2, I think you'll enjoy it! It ties in to Doctor Who series 3 so it's good to watch in between series 2 and 3 (or together with s3, as long as you finish Torchwood s1 before Who s3 episode 11), but not an absolute must.
Not only was the head monk Pyat Pree in Qarth but the groundskeeper in that scene was Ser Rodrick. If you’re a British actor, your career path is GOT, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Eastenders or some combination. 😂
Fun fact #1: As many have already pointed out, Tennant got to use his real accent in this episode, as he is Scottish (the fourth Scot in the role after Sylvester McCoy, but preceeding Peter Capaldi and now, of course, Ncuti Gatwa). The writers also decided to make fun of a problem Tennant had not reverting to his natural accent when using the syllable "oon", and decided to write an episode where he would be forced to use it many times in one sentence without reverting to his Scottish accent. But that's still to come for you, so I won't spoil the surprise. :D Fun fact #2: the BBC also made fun of then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher during a Dr Who themed skit on the Lenny Henry show. She was shown as a Cyberman with a weird hair do, who spouted political ideology that seemed designed to destroy the working class. The character was named Thatchos, as pastiche of her surname and Davros, which is a bit weird as he had nothing to do with the Cybermen. Her usband Dennis was given similar treatment, except his fdace was oddly out of proportion to the rest of his Cyberman helmet, and just stood next to his "wife" shooting a laser gun at the ceiling, an allusion I'm guessing to the public perception of him being a bit thick.
I can’t figure out if I commented, then someone decided it was to spoilery or if I decided not to post because it was to spoilery. No clue. Man. Just stay away from all things that hint torchwood. 🎉 I love their knighted names😂😅
If you want to learn some more about UNIT's origins, they're present in the Third Doctor's era (and also a couple Second Doctor stories, (The Web Of Fear and The Invasion))
Not entirely the Doctor’s fault. The TARDIS embraced the Doctor’s mission and would “adjust” (over-ride) his destination settings at need. For example, in S1,3 when Rose returned a year later than the Doctor intended-it was exactly when & where the Slitheen arrived and he was needed. No big deal for the TARDIS, big deal for Rose. We can’t see the the controls but it’s pretty clear that setting arrival date isn’t a matter of entering Year. Month, day. Hour.
I know it wouldn't make sense, but every time I watch this episode I always feel like she knows that's exactly what she's trying to do, so that's why it's not said until she's truly pissed off.
The Doctor isn't actually very good at flying the Tardis, it's supposed to be piloted by multiple time lords haha. The first doctor was like a teen stealing a car with no license or manual
I think you're the only person who ever spotted the warlock from GOT as Father Andrew. His name is Ian Hanmore and the weird thing is, as a warlock in Qarth he still spoke with a Scottish accent. "D'ye want to be wi' ya babees, Khaleeeeesi?" You didn't recognise Jamie Sives, Captain Reynolds, Victoria's doomed main man. He played Jory Cassel in GOT, stabbed through the eye by Jaime Lannister. And Ron Donachie, the steward, who played Jory's father in GOT, the doomed Roderik Cassel, executed by Theon Greyjoy.. I do think the Doctor and Rose (Rose particularly) were insufferably smug at times during this episode, all that silly stuff about trying to make Victoria say she wasn't amused. I'd forgotten who wrote this one and assumed it was a new writer who didn't quite get the characters, but no, it was RTD on a bad day. Never mind, great things to come so I'll just put this one back in its cage.
This was never my most favorite episode and I'm not even sure why... idk! lol But it's got its good stuff. Great Queen Victoria, I'm proud its my middle name lol
I've notice people have been commenting about the trouble The doctor seems to have landing where he intends. One line from the show sums it up nicely, though I am paraphrasing to avoid spoilers. "The TARDIS doesn't always get them where they want to go, but it does always get them where they need to go." PS Sorry about the second comment, I do detest essay length comments. :D
When they came up with the torchwood concept, they hadn't fully re-embraced U.N.I.T. so it was somewhat contradictory to the previous 50 years of history established in Doctor Who. They never fully recognized the contradiction. They did somewhat try to back explain some of it, but it's not fully covered.
I keep forgetting that he mentioned Jamie in this episode... And now I'm sad... P.S. watch Doctor Who Classic Era, hahahaha. I mean after you keep up until the end of 2023 series... It's wild, cause you would think that would have no more reaction, and need to just wait like almost a year for the next series/season. But no, you have like hundreds more stories from 1963 that you can watched~
GOT & Doctor Who House of the Undying - Pyat Pree (with the blue lips) The Doctor does not like fake or lame accents. (Does it mess up Tardis translator?)
BTW we Canadians do NOT say "aboot"; that's a Southpark myth. Americans hear it as "aboot" because we don't stress the OW sound like Americans who say AbOWt. We are softer on the middle syllable and shorten it.
i highly recomand you to start watch torchwood too, season 1 same time as season 3 of doctor who, and season 2(finish this one) before episode 11 of season 4 of doctor who. also, if u have time, u can watch sarah jane adventures too(u will meet sarah jane next episode). this way u will have an amazing season 4 experience :)
The TARDIS is not a perception filter it's a time spaceship that can change and blend it's surroundings wherever it goes but it got stuck as a Police Box when the First Doctor (William Hartnell) landed in 1960's London because the chamelion circuit broke and it's been stuck in that shape since and the Doctor never bothered to repair it everyone can see the TARDIS they just don't question it but obviously for some unknown reason they can't seem to read the sign police public call box on it when it's clearly written there.
I'll spare any details, but the TARDIS not always ending up where the doctor plans does get addressed in later episode(s). as a side note, I think you would enjoy including the two spin-off shows that were set up with this season. One of them is Torchwood. look up a doctor who recommended viewing order and you should easily find a new who viewing order guide of when to watch each season/episode and also lists all the minisodes. immediately after this season finishes is when they recommend exploring the Torchwood spin-off. there are occasional crossovers which while not absolutely necessary, imo it enhances the enjoyment of the occurrences, especially with certain ones in later season(s). doing my best to provide the sales pitch while offering as little information as possible.
So, the episode ends with the quasi-cliffhanger that Victoria’s haemophilia was actually the Werewolf gene and the reveal that the current royals are werewolves, laugh now pls. But this makes no sense. 😂 The episode takes place in 1879, by which point Prince Edward, through whom the royal line flows, was already 38 years old. Even Victoria’s youngest child was born in 1857. So how was this werewolf gene passed down genetically, masquerading as haemophilia to the rest of the world? There’s just no way this can happen and the bite should have just ended with Victoria. The only way this storyline could have made sense is if they had done so when Victoria was young, before she had any children… but then the whole Alfred angle would need to be rewritten, and Victoria is much more recognisable in British culture as an old woman anyway. This was just a silly angle that should have been cut from the final draft lol.
I really said let the hair down for Season 2...
31:53: That sound was a fox.
So did the Doctor and Rose.

Nah, she's just telling them to stop looking because it was just scaring them. She wanted them to get moving, not start cowering.

For example, in S1,3 when Rose returned a year later than the Doctor intended-it was exactly when & where the Slitheen arrived and he was needed. No big deal for the TARDIS, big deal for Rose. We can’t see the the controls but it’s pretty clear that setting arrival date isn’t a matter of entering Year. Month, day. Hour.
And I just love how Rose keeps trying to get the queen to say "I am not amused."
I know it wouldn't make sense, but every time I watch this episode I always feel like she knows that's exactly what she's trying to do, so that's why it's not said until she's truly pissed off.
Torchwood starts fighting aliens and taking their tech. (Keep watching. You will learn more as we go.)
The Doctor isn't actually very good at flying the Tardis, it's supposed to be piloted by multiple time lords haha. The first doctor was like a teen stealing a car with no license or manual
I think you're the only person who ever spotted the warlock from GOT as Father Andrew. His name is Ian Hanmore and the weird thing is, as a warlock in Qarth he still spoke with a Scottish accent. "D'ye want to be wi' ya babees, Khaleeeeesi?"
You didn't recognise Jamie Sives, Captain Reynolds, Victoria's doomed main man. He played Jory Cassel in GOT, stabbed through the eye by Jaime Lannister.
And Ron Donachie, the steward, who played Jory's father in GOT, the doomed Roderik Cassel, executed by Theon Greyjoy..
I do think the Doctor and Rose (Rose particularly) were insufferably smug at times during this episode, all that silly stuff about trying to make Victoria say she wasn't amused. I'd forgotten who wrote this one and assumed it was a new writer who didn't quite get the characters, but no, it was RTD on a bad day.
Never mind, great things to come so I'll just put this one back in its cage.
This was never my most favorite episode and I'm not even sure why... idk! lol But it's got its good stuff. Great Queen Victoria, I'm proud its my middle name lol
I love your comparisons to Eccleston.
the Tardis doesn´t take them where they want to go but where they´re needed to be.....
Exactly.
Only according to NuWho.
I feel like Torchwood is a secret service /police vs UNIT being military
I've notice people have been commenting about the trouble The doctor seems to have landing where he intends. One line from the show sums it up nicely, though I am paraphrasing to avoid spoilers. "The TARDIS doesn't always get them where they want to go, but it does always get them where they need to go."
PS Sorry about the second comment, I do detest essay length comments. :D
A great reaction. Also, I love your shirt.
When they came up with the torchwood concept, they hadn't fully re-embraced U.N.I.T. so it was somewhat contradictory to the previous 50 years of history established in Doctor Who. They never fully recognized the contradiction. They did somewhat try to back explain some of it, but it's not fully covered.
I keep forgetting that he mentioned Jamie in this episode...
And now I'm sad...
P.S. watch Doctor Who Classic Era, hahahaha. I mean after you keep up until the end of 2023 series...
It's wild, cause you would think that would have no more reaction, and need to just wait like almost a year for the next series/season. But no, you have like hundreds more stories from 1963 that you can watched~
34:30 - 7th Doctor: Yep!
Surprising to see an unexpecting time landing? Well... you may wanna watch the Classics 😂
She knew if she had been bitten the doctor was then a threat he would be the only one who could expose this in the family
Doctor James McCrimmon, a reference to the 2nd Doctor's companion, Jamie :P
(Spoilers? Idk)
Knighted and Banished on the same day. LMAO
'It's nothing, it's just a wolf.'
GOT & Doctor Who
House of the Undying - Pyat Pree (with the blue lips)
The Doctor does not like fake or lame accents. (Does it mess up Tardis translator?)
Oh, it was named after the building! I assumed it was just an anagram of Doctor Who. I guess, just a happy coincidence?
That sound is a fox ahaha - hear it all the time at night in the UK x
BTW we Canadians do NOT say "aboot"; that's a Southpark myth. Americans hear it as "aboot" because we don't stress the OW sound like Americans who say AbOWt. We are softer on the middle syllable and shorten it.
Ugh giving Heartstopper vibes with that straw...... heheheh
Love the fact that DT was faking his real accent.
i highly recomand you to start watch torchwood too, season 1 same time as season 3 of doctor who, and season 2(finish this one) before episode 11 of season 4 of doctor who. also, if u have time, u can watch sarah jane adventures too(u will meet sarah jane next episode). this way u will have an amazing season 4 experience :)
Only whovian know the secret that the royals are werewolfs 😂😂
T-O-R-C-H-W-O-O-D you said you hate a hatelove relationship with Anagrams, here is one, I think we can now lead you into/onto 😉 😉
Still one of the best episodes of #DoctorWho and the origin of "Torchwood " 😉🐺🏴🇬🇧
We are Not Amused... :)
let's freaking gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
bro I swear sometimes Doctor Who is just like One Piece
Try to solve this anagram next time you record a doctor who video, Torchwood
Wasn't the opening of this episode a bbc1 ident for a while?
The TARDIS is not a perception filter it's a time spaceship that can change and blend it's surroundings wherever it goes but it got stuck as a Police Box when the First Doctor (William Hartnell) landed in 1960's London because the chamelion circuit broke and it's been stuck in that shape since and the Doctor never bothered to repair it everyone can see the TARDIS they just don't question it but obviously for some unknown reason they can't seem to read the sign police public call box on it when it's clearly written there.
UNIT and Torchwood are seperate organisations.
❤❤❤
I'll spare any details, but the TARDIS not always ending up where the doctor plans does get addressed in later episode(s).
as a side note, I think you would enjoy including the two spin-off shows that were set up with this season. One of them is Torchwood. look up a doctor who recommended viewing order and you should easily find a new who viewing order guide of when to watch each season/episode and also lists all the minisodes. immediately after this season finishes is when they recommend exploring the Torchwood spin-off. there are occasional crossovers which while not absolutely necessary, imo it enhances the enjoyment of the occurrences, especially with certain ones in later season(s). doing my best to provide the sales pitch while offering as little information as possible.
Ideally, someone on Ugo's Patreon should send him a recommended viewing order.
@@anthonybernacchi2732 He has one with spin-off's and minisodes
So, the episode ends with the quasi-cliffhanger that Victoria’s haemophilia was actually the Werewolf gene and the reveal that the current royals are werewolves, laugh now pls.
But this makes no sense. 😂
The episode takes place in 1879, by which point Prince Edward, through whom the royal line flows, was already 38 years old. Even Victoria’s youngest child was born in 1857. So how was this werewolf gene passed down genetically, masquerading as haemophilia to the rest of the world? There’s just no way this can happen and the bite should have just ended with Victoria. The only way this storyline could have made sense is if they had done so when Victoria was young, before she had any children… but then the whole Alfred angle would need to be rewritten, and Victoria is much more recognisable in British culture as an old woman anyway. This was just a silly angle that should have been cut from the final draft lol.
You are so beautiful ❤
You really need to look at this as this is almost 20 years before the Gatwa era back when Dr. Who was proper Dr. Who.
This is not Doctor Who, it was Rose Who with soap opera.
@@mayotango1317 True I'll give you that one.
there is no way you can compare this against what gatwa is giving us, there is no contest
It's 'Davies'. Russell T. Davies!
