As others have said, the other picture is of Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter, who was left on Earth in the 22nd Century so no connections to her other than just being a companion (the first companion). Bill is a great and super underrated companion, so I'm glad you took to her so quickly. Very excited for this series' reactions.
There's no concrete connection, but it's clear that the Doctor takes an interest in Bill because she reminds him of Susan - at least, that's what the cut to her photo before the Doctor says the "when you don't understand something, you smile" line signaled to me.
@@chiffon788 I just saw it as he read that as a quality he appreciates in all his companions; that photo could’ve been of any previous companion and would’ve conveyed the same message. It reminded me quite a bit of The Rescue where Ian and Barbara suggest the Doctor take Vicki with them as she reminds them a bit of Susan and being a similar age to her will fill that gap in his life; Bill here fills that gap missing in the Doctor’s life and she has qualities that remind him of previous companions. I don’t remember there being anything in Hartnell’s era where he explains something to Susan and she smiles despite not understanding it, so I don’t think the line/photograph is supposed to be a direct comparison to Susan herself.
@@lucasdolding6924 I would agree, except that the cut to the picture of Susan isn't necessary to support all of the other stuff that the Doctor says and, don't forget, there's a moment in a later episode where Bill literally claims to be the Doctor's grand-daughter. I still see Bill as a 'general companion' rather than a grand-daughter substitute, but there are a handful of little details that suggest we were being pointed toward the grand-daughter comparison, certainly including the picture of Susan.
Should also be noted that various Audio stories have had her become aware of the time war and leave earth to participate in it. Various lines of dialogue in new who regarding the doctor’s family suggest that the doctor presumes Susan dead (though is not 100 percent sure)
Think the connection is both Susan and Bill wanted to learn as much as possible 😊
Some slight Easter eggs. Bill shares a name with William(Bill) Hartnell(1st Doctor) and Heather is the same name as Bill’s wife.
Peter always wanted to do a story on Susan, the doctors granddaughter which is why she’s pictured in the Pilot. Lots of first Doctor references
Something that is absolutely unique about series 10 that's already shown off in the first episode that I really love is the dynamic of our three leads here.
We obviously have the Doctor, Capaldi being the fully realized incarnation of his Doctor after the events of both Clara's resolution and River's. He's finally "his" Doctor after the character arcs of series 8 and 9 (also Capaldi's Doctor as a professor is just perfect).
Then there's Bill, the "new audience" surrogate as usual, but one thing I really love about her in particular is how differently she reacts to things as a knowledgeable person of fiction (her reaction to the mind wipe for example). She reacts to things with much quicker understanding, without sacrificing the sense of wonder. She has less confusion and less moments where you look at a companion's lack of understanding and roll your eyes because, yes, this isn't a thing/concept that exists in the real world, but its very popular in fiction, and shouldn't be that hard to understand. This also causes her to ask different questions to things that other companions wouldn't, or at least frame them in a completely different way.
But the absolute surprise to me is Nardole, who sort of fits the "old audience" surrogate, which hasn't really been done before to my recollection (at least not beyond a simple guest starring role). He sort of mirrors those of us that have been watching the show for a while now. He knows the Doctor and understands him (well, at least as much as any of us could), he winces when he hears the Daleks because he knows what they are like we do, he gets happy alongside the Doctor when Bill mentions the "bigger on the inside" bit, like he's a fan waiting for that line to be said by the new companion, he feels confident enough to criticize the Doctor's actions due to how well he knows him just like how we criticize some choices the Doctor makes as outsiders looking in, but he still views the Doctor as the person in charge and respects him, like we do. I think its awesome that Moffat managed to take this character that's played by a comedic personality and was (and still is) basically the comic relief, and frame him in a way that allows him to take on a unique role of audience perspective.
The combination of these three is not only fun, but new and interesting as it blends perspectives and accounts for both new and old fans of the show. I love it.
"Are you from space?" ... "No, of course not. Nobody's from space. I'm from a planet like everybody else."
That photo of an old campion is Susan, the doctor’s granddaughter who was also his first ever companion.

We will be waiting Im. Take your time.
Sure my dude. Take your time!! We've waited 2000 years, we can wait a little more 😁.
Can’t wait
WE WILL BE THERE
Maybe the Doctor sees a bit of his granddaughter in Bill. I've always loved Bill and 12's relationship dynamic.
So glad that you picked up on Clara's theme when the Doctor was confronted on mind-wiping Bill; it's a lovely little moment. This episode has a fair share of references to the past and the Doctor's recent character progression whilst managing to feel hugely fresh and a perfect jumping on point! It may be simplistic story-wise but it's all about the setup, refining Peter Capaldi's incarnation for this final stretch, endearing us to Bill, and establishing a great dynamic between the two of them.
As others have pointed out, the photograph on his desk is indeed his granddaughter Susan. Aside from inspiring him to take the photos of Bill's mum, the Susan picture definitely feels like it's drawing comparison between her and Bill as both curious young people he has a fondness for, and plays the role of protector and mentor toward.
Yeah, it's great how he gets challenged by Bill on that. The Doctor'll never mind wipe someone without consent ever again...
Yay Series 10 is finally here! This is actually my favorite series from Capaldi’s era. Mainly because of how consistent it is and I also absolutely love Bill and Nardole as the companions for Capaldi’s Doctor.
While Series 8 and 9 had absolute masterpieces in them the lows sadly were there, but loved both... Series 10 is however perfection no series will be this standard ever again , immaculate 💙💙✨
@@JoshPinder92 I agree! I think it's fair to say that Series 8 and 9 have higher highs, but Series 10 was more consistent overall.
@@AirPokemonNaruto22 most say toy story, star wars, dark knight, lord of the rings are the best trilogies but for me Dr Who series 8/9/10 are my favourite trilogy of all time. Something about how this era could hit hard with emotions, wonderful comedy and so creepy and dark and inventive too. Brilliant series 10 is the standard
That other photo was Susan, the first Doctor's granddaughter. It doesnt relate to Bill, but its the Doctor's lost family which has been hinted at in new Who. Its a shout out to Classic fans. The first human companions were Ian & Barbara, Susan's teachers at Coal Hill School (we've seen that school a few times in new Who, Clara worked there). If the Doctor was going to have photos on his desk, who other than River and his granddaughter? Not enough room for all the companions.
I loved Bill as a companion. She felt like a breath of fresh air🥰
The whole 10th season felt very different, in a good way, from the other two seasons with Capaldi. It felt more lighter.... to a point...
In a perfect world we would have gotten at least one more season with Capaldi. They really had something good here.
oh man i'm not ready for the emotional rollercoaster the end of this season is gonna be. can't wait to see it again with you
I adore series 10. It's criminally under rated in my opinion. The pilot really is a cracking jumping on point. I really wish we could have got another Capaldi series. You have quite the ride to go on with this series.
You never mentioned but I really enjoyed how 12 told Bill she was safe in the TARDIS and always will be. Delivered so well!
Anyhoo I love your reactions and the fact you take your time to walk us through your thoughts and hopes for the show. Great stuff, fella
Hey Filmbuff, I don't know if you read through every comment, but I just wanted to let you know in case: even if you don't record it, I highly suggest you watch the rest of the OVA's before the finale of AoT. Or at the absolute minimum, Lost girls 3. You don't *have* to watch the OVA's, but I think at least that one is pretty damn important IMO. Maybe do a multi-episode reaction for the others, or maybe all, because there isn't much to say on the others, *except* for lost girls 3. Or just off camera :)
As has been stated already, the photo is of the Doctor's first companion and granddaughter, Susan. It was she who coined the phrase "Time And Relative Dimensions In Space" aka TARDIS.
It was a screw that fell off Nardol at the start, not a sonic screwdriver, a little reminder that the Doctor put Nardol back together again after what happened with River.
Oh I wasn’t referring to the screw that fell, I caught a glimpse of the sonics on the desk as the camera lingered
I love series 10, I love Bill and the Doctor's relationship, and I love the conclusion to the Twelfth Doctor's arc. Looking forward to seeing what you think.
That’s not just any classic companion in the black and white photo, it’s the doctor’s granddaughter susan. After three years it was such a joy finally seeing capaldi’s doctor introduce the tardis to a new companion! You can rele tell peter was LOVING it!! Finally getting to do the tardis name explanation haha. How far ahead are you with recording as to uploading?
The photo on the desk other than River is Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter who is the companion of the first Doctor.
The start of my favourite Doctor Series cause he finally seems at peace with himself
1:45 I think they did that because the original premise of doctor who was an educational show about a time traveller. But then the first doctors actor (william hartnell) got ill and they had to find a way to keep the show running and that’s where regeneration came in. I think it panned to the first companion because the first doctor was sort of like a teacher and Capaldi in this season has a professor/student dynamic with bill
I loved season 10 it was a breath of fresh air with bill and nardole that we needed. I’dve happily let Clara go in the dream crab episode for another season with these two
I felt the same, I immediately liked Bill (and Nardol) and even Heather actually, I thought she was fab.
I feel like this season 12 really comes into his own. His last regeneration and new cycle was a “whopper” like 11 said. It really was a shock to the doctors system. Then we had two years of the doctor and Clara and, although they cared deeply for each other they were a toxic match (as engineered by missy) Now him and Clara have parted ways, he’s said goodbye to river and settled for 24 years. It finally feels like he’s ready to be “his” doctor.
The curious thing about S10 is that it was effectively an emergency series. Moffat was going to depart after S9 but Chibnall was tied up with Broadchurch and the gap between S9 and Chibnall being able to do anything was going to be far too long so Moffat stepped up so we wouldn't be without for an inordinate amount of time. And, now with hindsight, boy how we were blessed even if we didn't quite appreciate it quite as much at the time. That said, whilst I like S10 as a whole (it drags a bit in the middle - people will know what I'm referring to), as reaction videos it can be a bit of a slog between Husbands of River Song and the end of S10. However, here, I'm really looking forward to it because FB picks up on things so much better than most.
I absolutely adore bill as a companion and I wish she was around for much longer. She was a fresh personality with new points of view with a life that didn’t revolve around the doctor.
Always a pleasure to see you getting excited. I'm so going to enjoy your reaction to this season.
Finale of this season goes HARD
Both photos are more than companions. They are his only known family. River song (his wife) and Susan (his grand daughter).
Correction: we actually also have seen his daughter named Jenny.
I'd argue Jenny wasn't real family. Family is more than shared DNA.
@@cutthr0atjakeThat's ture. He knew Jenny for only one episode. I am sure he don't have the same level of attachment as River or Susan.
We have seen before as well. For doctor, some groups are more important than his companions. We saw that he gave his confession dial to Missy but not to Clara saying that Missy/Master is closer to him than Clara.
Damn I just saw the thumbnail and suddenly really missed Bill, can't wait to watch these!
So much nostalgia for series 10 this is for me THE standard! Series 1,5,6,8,9 and 10 all hold special place in my heart's 💙💙✨ the pilot takes me back to a better time
The photos on the Doctor's desk are family photos. He's settled down.
The series 10 is where the Doctor's character peaked in my opinion
This video deserve more likes
The people battling the Daleks are from classic Who, but I won't tell you anything about them except that they're called Movellans. I expect lots of people have told you that the photo on the desk is of Susan, the doctor's beloved granddaughter.
Bill is lovely!
Considering how much he pieced together about Susan (mentor relationship, family, educators) without any direct knowledge of the original episodes, I was curious if he would completely reconstruct the Movellians without seeing "Destiny of the Daleks" (1979).
Is there a connection between the black-and-white photo companion and Bill? That's a good metaphorical catch. Although this Doctor has had a companion before in the form of Clara, she's a holdover from Matt Smith's 11th Doctor. But Matt Smith was the 12th Regeneration (if you include the War Doctor and the Clone/Human Doctor). Capaldi is the FIRST Doctor of a whole newly added regeneration cycle.
The girl in the black-and-white photo was Susan, the First Doctor's First Companion (and also, technically, his granddaughter). At this point Nardol isn't actually a Companion. He's there with an assigned purpose...which you'll find out later in the series. So, Bill is the First Doctor's First Companion of this lifecycle. And, he takes her on like a student, like a granddaughter of sorts...roles he served with Susan.
The Dalek contract thing is a fan myth, specifically denied by Moffat and easily disproved by The Writer's Tale (which is compiled from emails sent at the time) when RTD doesn't know that Moffat is planning Daleks for series five and so plans to include them in The End of Time - changing his mind when he finds out about Moffat's plans. If the contract existed then RTD would not have made those plans.
The only evidence for its existence has been that it just about fits a pattern (if you squint). But Daleks are also really easy to get out of storage (or to get the 3D CGI model to use) for a cameo.
The girl in the black and white photo next to River Song's is Susan Foreman who was the Doctor's granddaughter and one of the original companions to the First Doctor.
Bill's ok but I prefer Nardole to be quite honest we don't often get companions in NuWho that aren't from modern day earth.
Love bill as a companion…very very underrated
Here we go boys.
That classic companion is his grand daughter
It's weird how much Susan looks Ike Barbra Streisand in that picture.
I'll be honest the Bill dynamic with Capaldi's Doctor really made me wish that Clara was gone sooner. Wish we couldve had one more season with Bill and Capaldi
31:34 There was a post on Reddit from an extra in that scene! They said that there were many lines that were not included, and Peter Capaldi really gave the impression that he's been a professor for decades. They said they regretted not secretly recording lil
Ahhh I’m so jealous!
I adore Bill! So happy that she's finally here.
Hello Bill!
Companion = Susan = Unearthly Child = !st vcompanion = the Doctor's granddaughter, Go back to The Name of the Doctor - when Clara Ssops Doctor 1 from taking the wrong Tardis - there was a young girl with him - that was Sussan.
I think this is my favorite season since 4. Bill is underrated but she's a really great character that feels fresh after so many seasons of "most important person syndrome" companions have had. She's just behind Donna for me, just above Martha. Nardole is also surprisingly good as a "straight-man". I think I had more emotional moments in this series than any other.
Regarding the approach of having this series feeling like a soft-reboot, as well as being Capaldi’s last series it’s also Moffat’s final series, and he said he wanted his last outing to feel brand new and fresh as if it was starting for the first time.
I do love bill as well
Season 10 is one of my favourite seasons of Doctor Who..I hope you enjoy it too :-)
really like this episode. moffat wanted husbands to be his final episode so series 10 was like a bonus season moffat agreed to do inbetween the time it would take chibnall to take over so it's maybe less ambitious and deep on the whole than 8 and 9. some people like that more personally it does make it the weakest of the capaldi era. still some really great episodes and i think this is an excellent "pilot" for new viewers and old.
By here, as a Classic Who follower, I'm in awe of Twelve (my favouritest (it should be a word)) of New Who, and Bill is my second-favourite companion (Donna #1) of New Who, so I hope you enjoy the rest of what follows... Onwards! ;) :) :p
Capaldi is a sci fi person 😂 hes a big fan of doctor who
The attempted mind wipe, comments of not having had any excitement in her life before meeting the Doctor, how she has a habit of frankly speaking her mind, etc. all causes me to be reminded more of Donna than Rose. She’s more soft spoken and not as brash as Donna of course. Honestly no spoilers but I think Bill was done poorly as I don’t love all of her episodes yet personality wise she’s one of my favorite companions.
The photo other than River on his desk is his (the First Doctor from 1963) grand daughter, Susan. Most likely, Susan is River's grand daughter as well!
This isn't really spoilers as it's mostly just an Easter Egg: the girl in the photo is The Doctor's Granddaughter Susan.
That thing about the Daleks having to be used every year isn't true, it's just a fan myth since they show up every year. The real reason they show up is just that they're popular and marketable so are used to bring in some viewers.
Also, if i may ask, whats the plan for when you finish this series?
Current plan is to wrap up Capaldi’s run and then a break. Though I will be watching the specials 👌🏼
I may return to it for Jodie’s run in 2024.
Coolio, no pressure or anything, was just curious ^.^
it was always my assumption it was just a random battle during the time war probably one of the earlier days before everything fell to crap I could be wrong but that's my thought for the random dalek battle?
It's actually from the Dalek Movellan war, which is long before the Time War (you see it in the episode Destiny of the Daleks if you're curious)
The Daleks are fighting the Movellons, who appeared during the fourth Doctor era in Destiny and Resurrection of the Daleks.
@@darkvoid9329 Oh cool thanks
I was really hoping you'd finish out Capaldi's run before you gave up on this show.
I haven't given up on it.
@@_FILMBuFF_ my mistake, I apologize for misinterpreting the delay. I guess was just impatient ♥️ I'll be here!
@@Fizzbuzz994Next ep is Extremis, I’m super excited for that one
No connection between Bill and the Doctor's granddaughter, other than maybe a metaphorical one, like she reminds him of his granddaughter...somehow. (Personally, I don't see it. Susan wasn't that similar to Bill, but hey, I'm not her grandparent. Maybe he sees something I don't.)
And I'm so glad you like Bill. She is just such a ball of sunshine.
Don't worry too much about spending a lot of time on Bill's sexuality.
Oh, the actress who portrays Bill's mum in the pictures is the coffee shop girl from "Free Guy", if you've seen that.
29:34 Ahhhh you always manage to be spoiled :(. Oh well, it'll give you something to look forward too.
Oh the Donna and 10th doctor return stuff has been everywhere, pretty much impossible to avoid, unfortunately.
@@_FILMBuFF_ Yeah I tried my best to avoid spoilers myself, pretty much impossible nowadays.
It’ll be a while but I definitely can’t wait for your reactions and insight to those episodes.
Welcome Who Identity Politics...it never stops from here on...
Is this one more season til chibnall?
15:00 The BBC being the BBC will make sure that you know about Bill............ a lot, she was their new novelty for Who, oh and white man bad! Welcome to the end my friend.
Get a grip dude 🙄
Statistically, Bill mentions her sexuality less than the majority of the straight companions.
what are you blabbering about, she’s there for one season 😭😭
Oh shut up man. I broadly agree they sometimes overdo the messaging but it was really well done here. Bill was a delight
"White man bad." The Doctor is literally a white man, you helmet. Some people are gay. Deal with it.
