When Donna magically appears in the TARDIS for the first time, among the "Who are you" and "What the hell is this place?" There's a split second at the end of one of Donna's lines where she's smiling at someone off-screen before the camera switches back to tennant saying "what!?"
I didn’t notice it until this year, despite having watched the episode loads of times. It’s like the Midnight green screen, it’s so obvious that you’re like “how did I miss that…”
My favourite mistake is in Doctor Who Series 2, in Rise of the Cybermen where Mickey is talking to his gran in Parallel London, his Gran is wearing sunglasses because she's blind, but in the close-up shots of her, you can see the sound crew in the reflection of her sunglasses boom mic & all.
There’s a similar one when in the bells of Saint John with Matt smith and Clara. When they are sitting down and discussing outside, the coffee table’s edges are actually mirrored and reflective, you can see the entire crew sitting there in black clothes. I spotted it and was like omg hahaha.
My favourite mistake is in The idiots lantern when the doctor is on the TV tower chasing Mr Magpie with the wire, when the wire blasts at the doctor , it cuts to a bird's eye view looking down at the doctor with the ground below - u can clearly see the doctor's foot disappear as David Tennants foot must of gone off the green screen section used for this scene - still cracks me up - the time the doctor lost his foot
In the brilliant episode 'The Doctor's Wife', Idris, the Tardis inside a human body censures the Doctor - asking him what the instructions are on the door of the Tardis - which is 'Pull to Open'. She then tells the Doctor that he always pushes the Tardis doors inwards, when he should be opening them outwards. Whilst it is true that police box doors did open outwards, the 'Pull to Open' instruction actually relates to the small door to the cupboard that contains the phone (directly behind the pull to open instruction and other information about the phone). This phone was not only for police officers to use, but also members of the public to summon a police officer. It is the only part of the police box that is accessible by the public (unless they were unfortunate to be detained and placed inside of the police box, which could also double as a small cell). This door does indeed open outwards and therefore, is pulled to open.
Finally. Someone says it. I loved The Doctor's Wife episode but that whole line about the bottom instruction referring to the main TARDIS door rotation was just silly. Even a kid with a TARDIS toy could tell the instruction "Pull to Open" was referring to the very small door that the sign with the instruction was attached to. It takes me a while to explain that to others that the instruction was intended for the public to use the phone behind the small door. As you stated, the public wouldn't be going inside the police box itself unless they were detained in one until back up came. It is true that real police box doors opened outwards. Well, only one door. The other side was a fix wall on most police boxes. It does make sense that the door was swing outwards considering how much space there is in a real police box. My best guess to why the TARDIS doors swing inside is to help hide the true inside of the TARDIS prop.
Another big one is that in the doctors daughter, when the doctor finally takes Martha home, in the interior TARDIS shot when it pulls out. On the left side of the screen you can see a full light just chilling
At the beginning of 'The Girl Who Waited' when the Doctor rants about Twitter to Amy, Arthur Darvill brings his hand up to his face before the shot changes to him looking at Amy, showing that they took shots from different takes
There’s always a shot like that when the camera switches POV during lines. Watch jawlines for similar timing mistakes. When the camera goes from focusing on speaker face to over their shoulder, you sometimes (read: 90%) get alternate takes of line deliveries that don’t match the movement of their jaws as they speak. Also, if it’s an action shot where the actor has a complicated/long dialogue whilst doing an activity, you can hear the audio sound hollow from the looping booth as they try to dub in a proper delivery over their onscreen actions. For some inane coincidence, YT suggested a clip of Greg Grunberg’s Group Sex to me this morning. It’s him and his buddy discussing the main love interest as Greg shoots basketball hoops in their studio. He’s running back and forth with the ball and the audio suddenly hollows out in the middle of it and I’m surprised matches up with him finishing his lines facing the camera. Props to that editor, but also a demerit for the audio quality.
These aren't mistakes, guys. It's how modern TV is edited. Doctor Who hasn't been multi camera since the 1980s. Editors have certain rules of motion to follow when editing. Because of the way the brain works it's not always necessary to exactly match up actors between shots.
@@DemetriusSorvo I know, but given how Arthur Darvill takes up a good portion of the frame in both shots, it feels like an oversight of the editors to not take this into account when putting the shots together.
My all-time favourite gaffe was in _Pyramids of Mars,_ as Sutehk rises, and a tech's hand is seen and then it retreats behind the chair (the hand was holding down the pillow on which Sutehk was sitting). It is _so_ very noticeable, _due to its movement;_ had the hand stayed in place, it might have gone unnoticed...
Here's quite an easy one to spot and I have no idea how no one working on the episode noticed it, in Army of Ghosts as the ghosts start turning into Cybermen there's a bit where a news reporter is panicking saying how they aren't ghosts only to get electrocuted by a Cyberman, however they forgot to add the electricity effect or the sound effect so it appears as if the Cyberman is just shaking him back and forth as he's screaming
In “The Snowmen” (about 16 mins in), the base of the spiral staircase goes clockwise as it goes up … but the top goes counterclockwise as it goes up. I can't unsee that now.
Ok yes for the time of Angels they did use the wrong TARDIS BUT they definitely 100% added the St. John’s ambulance logo to it to sort of make up for the mistake. I’m assuming they didn’t have the cgi model ready yet so it was them making do and blending the two. In fact you can even seen the logo in the clip from this video
A continuity error i spotted was in The end of time Part 2 where The Master attacks Rassilon, when he fires the lightning out of his hand the 3rd time (where he shouts "One!") he uses the right hand but the immediate next shot sees him using the left instead. A small but random error i noticed
i can’t remember what episode it was but in the tenth doctor era i spotted a little girl laughing when the mum grabs hold of the kid saying something like “listen to mummy go home” standing on the roof scene of christmas invasion.She was supposed to show no emotion yet she clearly did 😂
In the end of time, when the doctor and Wilfred are on the space ship the doctor leaves following the cacti and wilf looks out the window. As DT exits left you can see him slow down and stop as the doctor pops back for wilf seconds later but DT is not full behind the wall and you can see part of his shoe as he waits to re enter the shot
Also, in Victory of the Daleks, after the Doctor tells Amy what the Daleks are, so Amy goes to ask the Dalek in the room about what he's just said, the mic is briefly visible at the top of the screen.
Only a small mistake compare to some comments but in ‘partners in crime’ Donna leaves the house in the car, the registration on the car is a different one to the car that sits nearby the Tardis when they return after the events on the adipose and Ms Foster.
In The Doctor's Daughter, at the very end inside the tardis when the camera pans out while the doctor is using the console, there is a lighting lamp close by that is fully in frame for 5 seconds a few feet away. It's so obvious, it's massive, I have no idea how it wasn't mentioned here.
I was ready to be very angry if Rory was not the #1. The best occasion of the running gag was in Angels of Manhattan. Amy: "You think you'll just come back to life?" Rory: "When don't I?"
In The Doctor's Daughter, when they're leaving near the end of episode and the Doctor is piloting the TARDIS. On left side of the console you can see set lighting. It's so obvious.
@@CharlieInDaUK yh I was watching this video expecting it to be here cuz it was so obvious. Its THE number one obvious mistake. Sticks out like a sore thumb.
Right at the edge of the screen, you can see the blue shoulder/arm faintly appear then move off screen. Kind of like the Predator’s invisibility cloaking. I had to rewind twice to make sure I was looking at what she was talking about, as the movement of the snow over the edge of a background building does cover it up, pretty well.
Almost people. Everyone easily could have run to the TARDIS at the end. The Fake Doctor stood against the door with the creature banging on it to enter. At least 10 seconds goes by between the bangs, at the TARDIS is RIGHT THERE. Also, the whole episode preaches about how the Flesh people are real people and deserve to live. and then the Doctor proceeds to kill fake Amy without a second thought.
In the eleventh hour, when the Doctor tells the Atraxi to run, in the wide shot you can see him already squirming from the Tardis key burnin in his clothes, but then when the shot goes back to a close up of him, he is still watching them leave and a few seconds later he starts squirming from the Tardis key.
Yeah.. Series 11s TARDIS CGI was almost all swapped. The first scene in Eleventh hour had the new TARDIS, whilst other scenes after, such as the time of angels and flesh and stone, it had the 2005-2009 model.
At 4:58 she says that they put the 10th doctor’s tardis but if you look at the door and can slightly see the St. John’s ambulance sticker on the door and the lamp is from the 11th’s doctor
@@danthemeegs8751 yep window frames are the wrong colour for 11's TARDIS... Its 10's, but this episode was shot first so effects team were clearly lagging behind with the exterior changes made to the physical prop
There are a ton in the 50th anniversary. Most notably, there is a shot of Matt’s script on the TARDIS console during the explanation to the general about the plan to freeze Gallifrey. There is also a thing with Matt’s Fez when Both of the Elizabeths kiss 10. One other mistake is where a TARDIS door is left open in one shot then closed in the next during the final scene with all the Doctors at the Gallery.
This isn’t a mistake, but in “The girl in the fireplace” toward the end of the episode Mickey tells the doctor to “Use the TARDIS” to get to Madame de Pompadour (Jeanne Antoinette Poisson) and the doctor says “We can’t use the TARDIS we’re part of events now”, but the doctor could however have used the TARDIS to smash through the glass as opposed to going back in time with it, or using Arthur the horse to smash through the glass. It would’ve totally ruined the episode, but it would’ve made a lot more sense.
In the very first episode, the guys (manually!) operating the internal Tardis doors either don't fully synch with each other, or one of the doors gets stuck! One door opens sooner than the other. Also, of course, Bill Hartnell forgets his lines, and often calls Ian "Chesterfield", not "Chesterton". Having said that, Hartnell was a consummate professional and would notice if a switch on the console were in the wrong position or there was an obvious error in continuity. He had respect for the audience, even if they were mostly children like me. He knew we were not stupid, and would pick up on little things. If only Chibnall had the same respect for us
I knew it! I knew something was up with which cable she cut. I rewatched that scene in partners in crime three times and eventuelly gave up, thinking it must be me.
Another small mistake from Listen that I'll never not notice is when the Doctor asks the question, what us it that you see from the corner of the eye but it's always gone when you look? In the episode, The Family of Blood, you find out what that is, years before Listen. The Doctor trapped Daughter of Mine in every mirror, and he visits her every year. Son of Mine, when talking about the punishments of his family even says that if you see something in the corner of your eye and it's gone, it's her.
Technically that was if you're looking in a mirror. Basically we find out at the end what he doesn't as he believes everyone has had a dream of a hand holding their ankle, not knowing his was Clara!
in Gridlock, When Martha and that couple I can’t remember the name of are powered down and hiding from the Maccra, when Martha starts talking about how the Doctor will save them you can faintly hear the Doctor Who Theme play in the background.
Next to top 10 torchwood and Sarah Jane adventures. And top unit members. And there was a mistake in evolution of the daleks. With the dalek symbols are wrong even army of ghosts they changed the sign where the void ship is
There is another mistake in the same episode and scene as the 'Almost People' mistake. When the tardis falls through the roof giving them an escape, the tardis is oriented so that the side or back is facing the doctor. When it cuts away an then back again the tardis has magically turned so that the door is now facing them.
In the episode Smith And Jones where they are chased through the hospital by the Judoon, as the doctor opens a door to escape you can clearly see the film crew reflected in the glass. 😂😂😂
0:30 Big Ben is the name (or rather the nickname) of the bell not the clock tower. The clock tower is called Elizabeth Tower and at the time known just as Clock Tower.
One that I’m surprised you didn’t mention is in the title sequence of 12 and Bill (I don’t know if it’s there for 12 and Clara because I only noticed this in the 12 and Bill title), after the TARDIS flys out of the first clockface, a wavy pattern is released, but it disappears (and I mean literally that, no fade away, it just vanishes) just before it’s supposed to leave the screen
See I was watching David tennant when I was a little kid like 5 or 6 so a lot of his “mistakes” were really cool such as the green screen Cus it could’ve been a poster so you then start to wonder what it’s a poster of
Here's a mistake in Dr Who Series 13 "Legend of the Sea Devils!" When the sea bed disappears and the Doctor says "Yaz you know the ocean floor, it's not really there anymore!" Yaz then kneels down to look at the floor and the backdrop of the TARDIS wobbles!
I wouldn't have brought up the midnight one. The thing is, if it even is Green screen, it never showed anything in an establishing shot, so it could just be part of the scenery anyway. It's such a slither of it anyway. It's a reach 🤷♂️
Your arrow for the "Lord of the Rings" gaffe is pointing at the wrong thing. That's a chimney. The car is beyond that, driving along the crest of the hill. You can see sunlight glinting off its windshield at a couple of points.
At the end of The Doctors Daughter when the Doctor, Donna and Martha are in the TARDIS, just as the shots ending you can see a studio light for a good couple of seconds on the left.
Bougainvillea does not have a perfume. In one episode The Doctor (David Tennent) goes into a jungle and fills his lungs with air and exclaims “bougainvillea I love that smell” but they don’t smell.
I think I spotted a reflection of the moon in one episode that looked more like the moon as it is than an upside down mirror image as it ought to have been. Perhaps that wasn't in Doctor Who. I don't remember where I saw it. It just looked odd, and I had to have another look to see if it was just an image of the moon or a reflection of it! I was pretty sure it was a right way round moon instead of a reflection!
@@gay4sswhovian yeh but it’s true though. The first two specials were nothing special and the only good things about chibnalls episodes are the trailers. And then the episodes are a total crushing disappoint when they actually arrive.
I know this is kinda off subject, but last May my son gave me 2 kittens, one male, one female. I named them Doctor Who and Rose. In my mind, I pictured the 10th Doctor. Imagine my delight when I found out who is the 14th Doctor....
Splicing take error in Eleventh Hour during The Doctor’s big speech to the Atraxi. He chucks the obvious but beautiful little homage to Pertwee velvet jacket to the floor when deciding on his outfit. In one shot it’s on the floor. Next it’s in Rory’s arms, then back on the floor.
There's a shouldn't be there moment in an episode of Merlin. There is a shot of a village with thatched roofs and looking all medievely until you notice the flipping Telegraph poles carrying Ye Olde Britainy Telecomme LOL
in the fires of pompeii at 45:18 the doctor enters the tardis with the doors appearing to face the same direction as the rest of the roman survivors but at 45:20 the doors are facing perpendicular to where there looking.
I actually really liked the Legend Of The Sea Devils. Maybe it wasn't the end of the world/universe type of drama that you might expect from a special, and seemed more like an normal episode, but I actually preferred that. It was an interesting story, which I'll take over an exhilarating shock/end-of-the-world factor episode. And I know this kind of thing is especially subjective, but I loved the scene where Yaz and The Doctor admit to their feelings for each other. It felt very genuine and true to The Doctor's character, and his tendency to be too afraid of loss to truly live - the consequence of having lived too long, and seen and lost too much. Honestly this has been added to my list of favourite episodes, purely for the rare insight it gives into The Doctor's true self, underneath the different personas and coping mechanisms of different regenerations. One of the things I love about Doctor Who, on a deeper level than thrilling adventures through time and space, is getting to truly know and relate to The Doctor, which is why I love episodes with rare little insights like this. It also helps to confirm in my mind my personal theory that despite The Doctor's body changing, I don't think his gender or sexuality does all that much - or personality, deep down, for that matter. It's always the same things that drive him, the same things that matter to him, and the same things that he struggles with - which I think, deep down, are what makes a person who they are. Meaning that The Doctor is always, deep down, the same person. And it's experiences, not regenerations, that truly change him. I'm not going to go into detail on the gender thing, but I will say this: what woman forgets she's not a man?
Pretty sure it's less that she forgets she's not a man and more that she forgets that people will treat her differently for it. She even says in one of Whittaker's first episodes "this would be so much easier if I was still a man". When only one thing about you changes, it can be surprising how differently people will treat you as a result even though you're still the same person.
In the day of the doctor where they save gallifrey, there's a shot in matt smiths TARDIS where you can see his script laying on the console in plain sight
The human Dalek episode in season 3 when they show the view from the empire state building balcony you can see the empire state building from the balcony of the building itself 🤯🤨😂
This one is in The Runaway Bride, The Doctor and Donna are witnessing the creation of the Earth and a CGI asteroid just disappears. People noticed this in the clip posted on the official Who channel. It's a blink and you'll miss it kind of moment.

@@magckmn01 who are you referring to here?

That green screen mistake in Midnight I cannot unsee now… completely takes me out of the episode aha
I always thought it was just a green poster with advertismenet in the center which we could not see because the camera did not go far enough
LOL sorry 😝
Sameeeee
The CGI Tardis mistake was done ALOT through out Moffat's era. Even in the 50th anniversary at the end of Smith's run aha.
It was re-used TARDIS cgi footage
I noticed it at the end of Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, when it shows a postcard from "Siluria" and the Tardis is the 10th doctor's not 11's
My favorite is in "Rose" where Mickey has his fingers stuck to the bin. When he twists around, in the next shot the plastic is magically untwisted.
That one has bothered me since I first saw it when I was 9!
That's my fav too haha
In “The Snowmen” (about 16 mins in), the base of the spiral staircase goes clockwise as it goes up … but the top goes counterclockwise as it goes up. I can't unsee that now.

Not really a mistake but the way the cybermen fall over in Doomsday is always funny. One folding into 3 pieces and another falling off a balcony

Yeah.. Series 11s TARDIS CGI was almost all swapped. The first scene in Eleventh hour had the new TARDIS, whilst other scenes after, such as the time of angels and flesh and stone, it had the 2005-2009 model.
The 3d model of the 10ths TARDIS happens to make quite a few appearances instead of the proper model
At 4:58 she says that they put the 10th doctor’s tardis but if you look at the door and can slightly see the St. John’s ambulance sticker on the door and the lamp is from the 11th’s doctor
If you have the Blu-ray, put the commentary on! Moffat confirms it’s the wrong TARDIS, and that it’s Tennant’s.
@@danthemeegs8751 yep window frames are the wrong colour for 11's TARDIS...
Its 10's, but this episode was shot first so effects team were clearly lagging behind with the exterior changes made to the physical prop
The green screen ... I just thought the wall was painted green.
There are a ton in the 50th anniversary. Most notably, there is a shot of Matt’s script on the TARDIS console during the explanation to the general about the plan to freeze Gallifrey. There is also a thing with Matt’s Fez when Both of the Elizabeths kiss 10. One other mistake is where a TARDIS door is left open in one shot then closed in the next during the final scene with all the Doctors at the Gallery.
This isn’t a mistake, but in “The girl in the fireplace” toward the end of the episode Mickey tells the doctor to “Use the TARDIS” to get to Madame de Pompadour (Jeanne Antoinette Poisson) and the doctor says “We can’t use the TARDIS we’re part of events now”, but the doctor could however have used the TARDIS to smash through the glass as opposed to going back in time with it, or using Arthur the horse to smash through the glass. It would’ve totally ruined the episode, but it would’ve made a lot more sense.
Pointing out mistakes in Doctor Who is just stating the obvious to Doctor Who fans. It has always been a part of the show.
In the very first episode, the guys (manually!) operating the internal Tardis doors either don't fully synch with each other, or one of the doors gets stuck! One door opens sooner than the other.
Also, of course, Bill Hartnell forgets his lines, and often calls Ian "Chesterfield", not "Chesterton". Having said that, Hartnell was a consummate professional and would notice if a switch on the console were in the wrong position or there was an obvious error in continuity. He had respect for the audience, even if they were mostly children like me. He knew we were not stupid, and would pick up on little things.
If only Chibnall had the same respect for us
I miss bbcthree behind the scenes
In The Bells of St John when the Doctor and Clara are on the motorbike you can see filming equipment reflected on their helmets!
5:07
I agree, 10 didn't want to go, so we are keeping him
I knew it! I knew something was up with which cable she cut. I rewatched that scene in partners in crime three times and eventuelly gave up, thinking it must be me.
Another small mistake from Listen that I'll never not notice is when the Doctor asks the question, what us it that you see from the corner of the eye but it's always gone when you look? In the episode, The Family of Blood, you find out what that is, years before Listen. The Doctor trapped Daughter of Mine in every mirror, and he visits her every year. Son of Mine, when talking about the punishments of his family even says that if you see something in the corner of your eye and it's gone, it's her.
Technically that was if you're looking in a mirror. Basically we find out at the end what he doesn't as he believes everyone has had a dream of a hand holding their ankle, not knowing his was Clara!
in Gridlock, When Martha and that couple I can’t remember the name of are powered down and hiding from the Maccra, when Martha starts talking about how the Doctor will save them you can faintly hear the Doctor Who Theme play in the background.
Next to top 10 torchwood and Sarah Jane adventures. And top unit members.
And there was a mistake in evolution of the daleks. With the dalek symbols are wrong even army of ghosts they changed the sign where the void ship is
Yo next time try english
At least the greenscreen in the background can be assumed to be an oddly painted wall in the lobby.
There is another mistake in the same episode and scene as the 'Almost People' mistake. When the tardis falls through the roof giving them an escape, the tardis is oriented so that the side or back is facing the doctor. When it cuts away an then back again the tardis has magically turned so that the door is now facing them.
In the episode Smith And Jones where they are chased through the hospital by the Judoon, as the doctor opens a door to escape you can clearly see the film crew reflected in the glass. 😂😂😂
0:30 Big Ben is the name (or rather the nickname) of the bell not the clock tower. The clock tower is called Elizabeth Tower and at the time known just as Clock Tower.
At what time
@@tshelby5212 when the scene was filmed
The "Wrong TARDIS" One doesn't surprise me since it has happened more then once lol
One that I’m surprised you didn’t mention is in the title sequence of 12 and Bill (I don’t know if it’s there for 12 and Clara because I only noticed this in the 12 and Bill title), after the TARDIS flys out of the first clockface, a wavy pattern is released, but it disappears (and I mean literally that, no fade away, it just vanishes) just before it’s supposed to leave the screen
See I was watching David tennant when I was a little kid like 5 or 6 so a lot of his “mistakes” were really cool such as the green screen Cus it could’ve been a poster so you then start to wonder what it’s a poster of
Some of these could be fixed when the new series eventually starts getting "Collection" blu ray sets.
Here's a mistake in Dr Who Series 13 "Legend of the Sea Devils!" When the sea bed disappears and the Doctor says "Yaz you know the ocean floor, it's not really there anymore!" Yaz then kneels down to look at the floor and the backdrop of the TARDIS wobbles!
I wouldn't have brought up the midnight one. The thing is, if it even is Green screen, it never showed anything in an establishing shot, so it could just be part of the scenery anyway. It's such a slither of it anyway. It's a reach 🤷♂️
Your arrow for the "Lord of the Rings" gaffe is pointing at the wrong thing. That's a chimney. The car is beyond that, driving along the crest of the hill. You can see sunlight glinting off its windshield at a couple of points.
i noticed the tenth doctor tardis coming back bit actually lol and i wish it was intentional and i choose to believe it is.
When the master faces Rasslion in the end of time he use one hand but the back shot is him using the other
"What's the use of a good quote if you can't change it."
At the end of The Doctors Daughter when the Doctor, Donna and Martha are in the TARDIS, just as the shots ending you can see a studio light for a good couple of seconds on the left.
We covered this in another mistakes video last year (10 Doctor Who Mistakes You Can Never Unsee) and yeah that’s a really bad one!
Bougainvillea does not have a perfume. In one episode The Doctor (David Tennent) goes into a jungle and fills his lungs with air and exclaims “bougainvillea I love that smell” but they don’t smell.
I think I spotted a reflection of the moon in one episode that looked more like the moon as it is than an upside down mirror image as it ought to have been. Perhaps that wasn't in Doctor Who. I don't remember where I saw it. It just looked odd, and I had to have another look to see if it was just an image of the moon or a reflection of it! I was pretty sure it was a right way round moon instead of a reflection!
The midnight episode I think mine was fixed, so the greenscreen wasn't there. I'd have to go back and check.
Now that I know about these, I'll never notice them again.
The takedown of Chibnall's era from 6:00-6:15 was glorious 😅
And unnecessary
@@gay4sswhovian yeh but it’s true though. The first two specials were nothing special and the only good things about chibnalls episodes are the trailers. And then the episodes are a total crushing disappoint when they actually arrive.
In love and monsters you can see a woman off walking around the background of the set
I'd only noticed a few of these, and I've watched the 2005+ series many times.
7:29 “especially in recent years”
The sea devil jumping
Every show has mistakes. In Death to the Daleks, there's a scene where Sarah is missing though she was meant to have been chained to the wall.
The granting of the sacrificial victim's last wish - to go for a toilet break?
I am so glad that someone likes doctor who as I do. All my friends are saying that doctor who is a bad TV show.
You're in the right place, everyone here is a massive fan of Doctor Who! 🙂
I know this is kinda off subject, but last May my son gave me 2 kittens, one male, one female. I named them Doctor Who and Rose. In my mind, I pictured the 10th Doctor. Imagine my delight when I found out who is the 14th Doctor....
4:43 I’ve always wondered this but what is the guy on the left holding onto?
If the biggest continuity error in a time traveling show is having the wrong cable snap then I'd be happy
But nope, the timeless child exists
Splicing take error in Eleventh Hour during The Doctor’s big speech to the Atraxi. He chucks the obvious but beautiful little homage to Pertwee velvet jacket to the floor when deciding on his outfit. In one shot it’s on the floor. Next it’s in Rory’s arms, then back on the floor.
Well done, and Ellie is excellent
I've been telling people that for years about the re-used TARDIS footage
There's a shouldn't be there moment in an episode of Merlin. There is a shot of a village with thatched roofs and looking all medievely until you notice the flipping Telegraph poles carrying Ye Olde Britainy Telecomme LOL
I'm so rewatching these clip's after knowing This
in the fires of pompeii at 45:18 the doctor enters the tardis with the doors appearing to face the same direction as the rest of the roman survivors but at 45:20 the doors are facing perpendicular to where there looking.
I actually really liked the Legend Of The Sea Devils. Maybe it wasn't the end of the world/universe type of drama that you might expect from a special, and seemed more like an normal episode, but I actually preferred that. It was an interesting story, which I'll take over an exhilarating shock/end-of-the-world factor episode. And I know this kind of thing is especially subjective, but I loved the scene where Yaz and The Doctor admit to their feelings for each other. It felt very genuine and true to The Doctor's character, and his tendency to be too afraid of loss to truly live - the consequence of having lived too long, and seen and lost too much. Honestly this has been added to my list of favourite episodes, purely for the rare insight it gives into The Doctor's true self, underneath the different personas and coping mechanisms of different regenerations. One of the things I love about Doctor Who, on a deeper level than thrilling adventures through time and space, is getting to truly know and relate to The Doctor, which is why I love episodes with rare little insights like this. It also helps to confirm in my mind my personal theory that despite The Doctor's body changing, I don't think his gender or sexuality does all that much - or personality, deep down, for that matter. It's always the same things that drive him, the same things that matter to him, and the same things that he struggles with - which I think, deep down, are what makes a person who they are. Meaning that The Doctor is always, deep down, the same person. And it's experiences, not regenerations, that truly change him. I'm not going to go into detail on the gender thing, but I will say this: what woman forgets she's not a man?
Pretty sure it's less that she forgets she's not a man and more that she forgets that people will treat her differently for it. She even says in one of Whittaker's first episodes "this would be so much easier if I was still a man". When only one thing about you changes, it can be surprising how differently people will treat you as a result even though you're still the same person.
I agree with the seen of Yasmin and the Doctor admitting their feelings.
In the episode "Robot from Sherwood" when Peter Capaldi throws Robin Hood into the river, there is LITERALLY A WHOLE HAND IN THE FRAME
7:46 No mention of the wired phone not wired.
7:04 You misspelled gaffe in this video about gaffes 😆
Oh come on, all of us saw that green screen, we just didn't know it was a green screen lol
the wrong Tardis it could mean even the Tardis didn't want the 10th doctor to leave
#11: when those chumps locked me in the Pandorica and the universe blew up
How would you feel about becoming the next Bond?
@@GabePuratekuta The name’s Smith. John Smith.
I appreciate not mentioning anything after Capaldi's twelfth Doctor. I think it's best if we all just accept that the series ended once he left
They had a detail about the sea devil's credits though?
Missed the bit about The Sea Devils, did you?
Well of course. I mean, the series ended after Capaldi. There's nothing left.
Honestly. What part of the smokey bit looks like a car? I always thought, and still do think, it's just smoke from a chimney xD
1:39
In the day of the doctor where they save gallifrey, there's a shot in matt smiths TARDIS where you can see his script laying on the console in plain sight
Surely there must be tons of mistakes in the classic series.
The human Dalek episode in season 3 when they show the view from the empire state building balcony you can see the empire state building from the balcony of the building itself 🤯🤨😂
This one is in The Runaway Bride, The Doctor and Donna are witnessing the creation of the Earth and a CGI asteroid just disappears. People noticed this in the clip posted on the official Who channel. It's a blink and you'll miss it kind of moment.
