To answer your question about Lynda leaving her bag behind. The bag is actually what housemates in the first years of Big Brother would wear as it had their microphone battery in it, so once Lynda had left the house she didn't need to wear it anymore ;) I always thought it was really cool the attention to detail this episode put into making the game shows faithful to how they really were, made for great viewing on the day of transmission.
xLudix I love ur doctor who and uncharted content hope for the best
I must politely disagree on Jack. I think he's a wonderful character, his chemistry with Rose and Nine absolutely wonderful. His charmisma and attitude is so blatantly different from the Doctor's that it adds something refreshing to the mix. Plus, while he may have been largely eye candy in Series 1, he does get a great deal of growth and development just in his 5 episodes, and expands even more with his returns in Series 3 and 4.
Perhaps I was being a little harsh, but the jack comments were aimed more towards his segments in the dressing room, I don't have as much of a problem with him exerting leadership in the following episode
@@HarrysMovingMedia honestly the only funny part is when he pulls out the laser gun
Wasn't he also in Torchwood once or twonce?
@@samuelbarber4154 he had his own show. haha twonce
@Boring Name well he could die at this point
I thought that Jack functioned as a great contrast to Nine. Jack is flashy, conventionally attractive, promiscuous, and he doesn’t care who knows it. The Doctor has just committed double genocide and is often dour, pragmatic, plainly-dressed (I remember an interview where RTD said Nine’s leather coat came from a charity shop), and chaste.
Their one commonality is a fondness for Rose and her compassion and zest for life. They begin to learn more about the universe through her eyes and see the world more as a massive one, full of opportunities and individuals to meet. I love when Jack meets Ten and suddenly the latter is a more conventionally attractive, well-groomed/styled, and younger man that is now pining after Rose. That episode serves to make Jack less of a character shell.
He has been changed by Rose in that he can’t die and he offers to sacrifice himself in that Utopia episode. I’m not so sure flashy Captain Jack would have done that back in the Blitz. The Doctor keeps on fighting and recovering from the Time War PTSD after Rose helped him do so as Nine.
Jacks show is based on Trinny and Susannahs "What Not to Wear".
Am i the only one who loves eccleston more then any other doctor?
I'm the same don't worry mate
+Harry's Moving Castle :) glad to see another eccleston fan
Harry's Moving Castle see if you agree reality shows where the contestants are drafted in against their will and are apparently killed if they lose and the last one still alive at the end gets to live as a prize? is it just me or did doctor who invent the hunger games three years early?
greatest doctor period
Daniel B yeah. Tennant was good, Matt smith was alright in season 5 and 6, but season 7 and peter capaldi are absolutely horrible
i love how the voice in the big brother house says to "please not swear" despite the fact they kill people on television
This episode actually really nostalgic, it brings me right back to the early 2000s
Tbh, even if you don't know what the weakest link is, which I didn't know either at the time I first watched it, it looks the same way a lot of other quiz shows look, so while some references are lost other jokes still work if you've ever seen a quiz show.
Same goes for the other two; it's pretty clear that Jack is in some kind of makeover show, and The Doctor is in a type of reality show.
I agree. Since I don't live in a place where The Weakest Link is known, I heard about it for the first time in that episode
So you know, the show the Captain Jack segment was parodying was What Not To Wear, a BBC run fashion show.
I didn't know what the Weakest Link was when I watched this for the first time, as I am not from the UK and we don't have a similar program where I live. I just thought it was something the writers had come up with, and I still enjoyed the episode a lot.
So, I don't really think it is all that important
And Jack is one of the best characters from series 1, he's so likeable and fun. LEaVe HiM aLonE
Even if you don't know what The Weakest Link is, most people will recognize the concept of a quiz show.
This is still one of the best series Finale's in Doctor Who History. Hell Bent pale's in comparison. My Favourite Series is Series 4.
Harry Thomas Pictures Like practically every Doctor Who fan.
Nivada Stars I thought series 3 was better
Series 4 is epic to rewatch, and it has all of the doctors original companions in it, before the show was terrible, what more could you want?
"Eye candy for certain demographics" LIKE MEEEEEEEEE
1:01 The Daleks were hiding in Dark Space. Wonder if they bumped into the Reapers while they were waiting for the Doctor to show up
Lonly Wanderer they probably would have been best friends due to them both being exterminators, also the reapers exterminate everyone from the milky way galaxy, daleks are from another galaxy so, EXTERMINATUS
@@electrohalo8798 Not really. Considering the daleks want to kill literally everything that isn't them, they would probably try to exterminate the reapers too. and they'd probably win as well.
Is this a firefly reference
That intro was fucking 🔥🔥🔥🔥 loved this vid please do more reviews on the Russel era.
Even if you don't know the specific game shows they are parodying in this episode, I think it is clear to anyone watching, that Rose is in some type of Quiz game show, Jack is in a makeover show, and The Doctor is in a Reality TV setting. You don't need to know what The Weakest Link or Big Brother (or whatever Jack's experience is based on) is, to appreciate the parody.
love the better call saul music in the background, you should review it
Interestingly I reviewed the pilot, you'll have to search hard for it because I made it AGES ago
Harry's Moving Castle oh awesome I'll have a look for it
When I was watching it, I had no idea what the weakest link was. I am American and I watched it years after it premiered because I was like five when it was first shown, but that just goes to prove your point I guess
He's actually wrong about the weakest link not being popular, back when this episode came out it was the most popular game show in britain
@@gaminggazebo3012 At the time of the episode, perhaps, but the point is that people watching today might not recognize the reference. Also, Doctor Who is watched by people all over the world, not just Britain; and not every country had its own version of The Weakest Link, and it was not equally popular in every country either.
I love the Weakest Link here because they call back to it during The Weakest Link Doctor Who Special. Before Ann got rid of the Anndroid.
The reality TV series with Jack was Trinny & Susannah's What Not to Wear, which they would makeover people and were known for being quite rude while they were dressing them.
Wow, they predicted having to have a TV licence
how is that predicted?
you don't have to have a TV licence
@@coldblowcode Too watch live BBC TV and a few other channels you do. But if you just watch TV online you dont
What i also like about the respective games each of the characters are placed in is that they're each out of their comfort zones:
-The Doctor is in an environment where socialising is key, and that's 9's weakness.
-Rose's strength was never general knowledge, especially not from that time period.
-Jack is vain and must handle a game where his looks are brought into question.
This makes it funny/interesting to see how they over come it. If any of them switched games they'd do better and it wouldnt be as good - The Doctor would crush The Weakest Link for example.
The weakest link might not be running but hey. Doctor Who got a revival maybe the BBC ran out of show ideas in the distant future and revived the weakest link. Just a thought.
Yeah, history is full of revivals and reinventions of old stories and ideas - it is not unreasonable to think that future generations might take some aspect of our world today and bring it back with a new twist in the future. Just look at how Hollywood keeps pumping out remakes of classic movies.
it's such a shame you didn't review boom town, I quite liked the episode (mainly because of the Wales jokes)
The show Jack's moments are a parody of were some makeover show that was on during the mid 2000s. I don't remember the name but I vividly remember certain episodes.
Eccleston didn't really to show his chops, he never got to do a "comedy" episode, where they just think of any random concept, say fighting Arthurian Knights on the moon with Nazis (y'know, random), and just running with it.
Weakest link definitely wasn’t the most popular show but it is recognisable and most people still know it.
Yet I’m still sure they did it just to make the Anne-droid joke
I'm so glad you did away with these Nostalgia Critic-style "jokes" with these side characters. It was far more cringey than Jack's makeover scenes.
2:56 Not anymore I just heard the weakest link is making a return
Jack finds himself on I think an “Extreme Makeover” type show. I remember the Makeover shows advertised around this time in the states.
"...fast-tempo electro music..."
Trance, my dude. Trance.
as an american, i was very confused at the weakest link part during my first viewing.
the jack segment is a parody of what not to wear, the hosts irl were named trinny and susannah so the robots were named trin-e and susan-o
I had no idea what the Weakest Link was when I watched the episode, but it was no issue for me. I honestly figured it was just created for the story.. along with, all of the other shows.. I'm from the states, so..
Everyone asking about the song name in the intro it's:
Evol Intent & Eye-D - Time War
I thought everybody watching at the time would have known who the 2 robots were meant to be emulating. Maybe you're just showing you age?
I never watched it man, and I can't see myself being interested in that kind of thing from the day I first watched it up until this point today
My point was that at the time they were instantly recognisable as Trinny and Suzanna.
So at the time, it didn't feel out of place.
Also, the Weakest Link has been sold to many countries as a format and is still currently on many foreign TV station's output.
Just saying :-)
@@YourBeingParanoid I think the point is, that being recognizable at the time, doesn't mean it'll stand the test of time. Young people watching Doctor Who today or in 10 years, will most likely not know the specific shows they are parodying; though I think everyone can recognize the concept of a Quiz show, a Make Over show, and a Reality show (or whatever you call the Big Brother genre).
I don't care much for reality tv or game shows, so the specifics of the references was lost on me, but I still understood what they were.
I'd love to see you tackle Star Trek Deep Space Nine episodes reviews like this
The stuff with Jack is Trinny and Susannah
"Everybody lives, Rose! Just this once...Everybody lives!"
Gets me every single time.
Almost everyone in this story dies
@@doctorgilham2030 Have you watched this episode?
@@davidwells9982i know this comment is old but you quoted the doctor dances, not this episode
Best intro youve done
03:24. It will be.....they still show old Family fortunes, Blankety Blank, Bulls Eye and the occasional Big Break episodes. They'll catch it on a repeat channel, like we do now.
I find it very ironic how you don't like Jack because he is "eye candy for certain demographics" when Rose and other companions and female characters are also "eye candy", but for other demographics, and you don't seem to have a problem with that...
The difference is that Jack's whole character is the fact that he's eye candy. Roses attractiveness is pretty much never brought up
I was excited to keep watching these videos, but I barely finished series 8, and now I know that Clara dies. I will come back to these videos when I catch up with the series.
I love jack
We love jack.
I'm pretty sure the reveal of the ships was more for the effect. What? you wanted to see a plain old radar screen, and besides, it's the future.
One thing I always liked in this episode that I never really saw mentioned anywhere was when the Daleks talked to the Doctor, they coldly referred to Rose as his “associate”, which just felt like a huge contrast with the Dalek from episode 6 who, in a very similar setup, calls he “the woman you love”, or words to that effect. As a new viewer in 2005, with only a base knowledge of the Daleks, that distinction really stood out to me
( 3:09 ) It’s back now. 😂
damn, what was that emperor dalek speech intro music? sounds filthy as hell, weird change up 'cause you usually use figure ;)
Felix Hawkins Put into RUclips 'evol intent', can't remember the song to hand but that's the artist
I'm actaully happy that it's evol intent, thanks dude!
for future reference, evol intent & eye d - time war
You should also review the Christmas Invasion and New Earth, simply because the latter was so awful.
Well this is the really strange thing, I re-watched the first half of series 2 again, so many episodes I don't remember being awful are sheer bad man. New Earth and Christmas invasion are just kinda "meh" episodes for me and I don't have much to say on them unfortunately, sorry I couldn't fulfill your request.
I love this two part story it's so grand yet so small in scale like the dalek army is massive but it's a simple premise I like moffat but I hate how over complex and contradictory his finales are whereas Davis made his episodes consistent and epic the daleks are amazing in this season I prefer them in s4 but the emperor is a brilliant villain with such a sinister voice love it the daleks were in their prime
Congratulations on your plate discovery
By the way, the show Jack is meant to be on is Trinny And Suzannah. They faded from relevance a lot more than The Weakest Link in my opinion and their formula and set design isn't as eyecatching and reognisable and that's probably why you didn't work out what they was meant to be
What was the episode called with the prolapse in the roof
Did Kyle pass his exam?
I find it funny that you used the Better Call Saul outro.
>Tfw when I remember watching The Weakest Link because it was before The Simpsons
Feels old man.
I'm only on series 5, so I'm able to watch this with out worrying about spoilers, but now I now that Clara dies in 2015. Thanks for saying that in a REVIEW OF SERIES ONE.
I quite liked that episode I give it a 8/10
I have a question - WHERE DID THR SAND COMR FROM? Rose was teleported, and I've honestly never seen a teleport leave anything like it before.
You know, I always though the series conceived of basically the perfect non-lethal gun with those teleportation beams. They behave so similar to the standard death rays that everyone including the Doctor thought that's what they were, but they actually just zap the target someplace else.
Imagine the Doctor berating a character for blasting some evil alien with a laser only to have that character reveal that: "Actually, they're not dead, I just took them prisoner. Is that enough of a moral high ground for you? Now, if you'll excuse me, I have more bad guys to shoot." Why hasn't anyone thought of this? Like, why isn't this a thing in the setting?
I found it hard to believe that television programs centuries in the future would be remakes of early 21st century shows. That would be like 21st century programs being remakes of what was popular with the masses back in the 16th century. However, I am American and and did get the reference, as, at that time, The Weakest Link was also being made in the U.S. with Anne Robinson as host. In fact, she was quite a hit in this county - more famous than the game show.
I'm American, and I had no idea what the weakest link was when I first saw the show. I don't think it detracts at all.

Fantastic review Harry, can't wait for the second part!
Captain jack was in a future version of triny and Suzanne
Thanks man
It's funny because Big Brother doesn't exist any more!
6:45 That’s the Wee Man!
that murdock nod couldn't be any more accurate...
Christmas special from 2005.
Don't know loved all the old classic games and good to see over 10,000 tv channels still very popular though the centauries all the way
I had nightmares of the Anndroid when I was little for some reason
The 2 robots show is based on What Not to Wear, a makeover reality television show launched by the BBC in 2001. It was presented by Trinny Woodall and Susannah Constantine (The Robots) for five series. It was not very interesting to me as I found fashion shows all rather dull.
Just kidding very detailed review Harry well done
Actually I think classic who had more social commentary, especially Jon Pertwee's era
Cough curse of peledon cough
Holy shit imagine dr who hardstyle. Earned a like already
Liked for the drum and base like opening lol
Why don't the doctors enemy's shoot his tardis with transmat beams more often?
he probably fixed it so transmats wouldnt fuck him over anymore
I must say when I first watched it I didn’t know what weakest link was but picked it up watching the episode
jack was on a version of Trinny & Suzannah's make over show
TL;DW: Yes it's bloody amazing
And then they brought the Weakest Link back in real life because... reasons.
Somoene's probably already said this but the makeover show Jack was on was meant to be Trinny And Suzannah
You should do a review of torchwood
Glad you found the plate :)
I'm pretty sure that the show that Jack is supposed to be on is a parody on Snog, Marry, Avoid
The partick in the op is funny aff
Your reaction to Clara’s death wasn’t…
😃”FANTASTIC!”
Goodbye big brother.
The two women robots are Trinny and Susannah, right? Look up some Luxeria reviews of it
To be honest the parts with the reality Tv stuff I never got when I was younger. I first watched these when I was 10 back in 2017. The jokes the names of the droids. I had never heard of the weakest link so I didn’t get the Anne-droid joke. Also the robots name in the fashion show (I cant remember the actual name can someone please tell me) are the same as the actual presenter of the actual show. So these episodes are definitely outdated
I think what bothered me most about this episode was how the great "reveal" of the Daleks in this episode was kind of wasted, since it gave away they were going to appear in the trailer the week before. It's the same with Army of Ghosts and Doomsday. It goes all out to keep the monster hidden, for the most part, until the episode's climax, but the effort is all for nought if the trailer from last week's episode gives it away. That and how the intro sort of gives away that it's on Satellite 5, making the reveal that it's Satellite 5 100 years on later in the episode another wasted effort.
Lol random appearance from the wee man
Another great vid! Editing is very snappy. Kai was a bit pointless to the review tho! Its a shame you dont like Jack because i found him very charismatic and witty in this!
All my characters are ultimately pointless dude. ;) I don't mind Jack, his section is just quite irritating and he doesn't have anything negative about his character. He's great in the empty child story because he has faults but in the last 3 episodes of the series he's just too 'perfect' for me to be able to empathise with him
+Harry's Moving Castle true but they usually add something to it! Yeh, see youre point about Jack but i just find him charismatic like this, however the change feels like theres stuff missing between the empty child/doctor dances and boom town. He is better whens hes flawed though (Children of Earth is the biggest example).
+Harry's Moving Castle speaking of Children of Earth, would love to see a review of that
What’s the song at 0:55
Came out in my Birthday
Does anyone know the name of the song that was playing in the background ive heard it before but i dont know where
Love it, brill review, love Chris' acting in this
Ace Creeper lol
Yasssssss baby! He's back!!!
Ofcourse in the BBC's idea of the former fourth bountiful human empire they still make you have a TV License and fully criminalise not having one.......boy....how that aged xD
Kai looks like Damon Albarn for some reason
Dya think? I literally just put chav into Google images haha
s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/00/d2/e8/00d2e85e0be87d292f8407d9dbe8e2b3.jpg A bit
I have no idea what the weakest link is, but I still enjoyed it
Is it bad that the first half hour of this episode does the commentary on media and reality television as good as 3 entire hunger games books (and said commentary is the best part of those books)?
