When Doctor Who's continuity is on point: Don't forget me
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2021
- Now that's what I call continuity. Across two iterations of the show, two spinoffs, and more than 30 years, a single plot thread carries on like no time has passed at all

I love the unintentional foreshadowing at the end of The Hand of Fear, with the dog and Sarah Jane whistling "Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow", and the Doctor later sending her K9. They couldn't have planned that any better.
I had no idea that was what she was whistling. I didn't even draw the connection with the dog.
@@PenneySounds It's an old music hall tune and it's perfect. Great vid.
Now I'm glad I didn't trim out the whistling part like I thought of doing. Now it's a smash cut from a song about getting a dog to a scene about getting a dog.
If you want to see more unintentional foreshadowing (backshadowing?) from this show, check out my video "When Doctor Who does a callback to something that hasn't happened yet"
Serendipity. Like Jo Grant messing up the mushrooms at the Nuthutch in the story before Sarah Jane arrived.
Also the name of the crafts programme Katy Manning went into after leaving the show.

"Don't forget me"
Oh Ms Elisabeth Sladen, no-one's EVER going to forget you
It's been 11 years and I still tear up when I see any of her scenes.
No...you hit me in the feels.
Sarah Jane Smith, didn’t want to be forgotten.
10th Doctor, never wanted to go.
@@raflamar4146 neither did Elizabeth Sladen 😢😢
🙏❤
I love that she wanted a goodbye. She didn't want to be left thinking that she *might* see him again like he did the first time.
Yeah an official goodbye rather than waiting for years of her life for her space man to return
It... Also works where if you don't follow her spin-off, it's still closure for Elizabeth Sladen's character, since she... Well.
@@RosyRecluseyeah😢
The Doctor has a habit of doing that to his companions...
Although he does follow up on his companions. He mentions it in an episode of the Sarah Jane Adventures
"My Sarah Jane!"
Makes me cry every single time.
Me too.
@@DravenGal glad I'm not alone
@@wheelyjon I meant I cry too.
Yep. Never fails.😭
Every time! Just the way he said it!
Sarah Jane has met the 1st, 2nd 3rd, 4th, 5th 10th and 11th
That's pretty Good track record.
Sarah Jane would definitely be on the founding members council
Another one with a good track record is the Brigadier, who on-screen has met the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th (DIT), 7th, and 12th (Cyber-Brig).
EDIT: And of course from the new series, Clara met Doctors 1-11 all in the same episode, and later traveled with 12 too.
Ooh, when did she meet 11?
@@jennacrafts8129 The Sarah Jane Adventures, episode: "Death Of The Doctor".
She met the 7th Doctor in the comics - it was great, long before the emotionalism of Russell's reboot in 2005, the Doctor and Sarah are equals (in height) and share a fond hug, before foiling the human livestock trafficking operation of the Kalik. There's a London bus as well!
"No one's ever gonna forget you."
Then The Doctor remembers Donna Noble.
As long as Donna doesn't remember The Doctor, she'll be alright.
Oh god no my feels
Oof
Or Jamie and Zoe.
@@highvoltage7797 They remember their first adventure with him but don't remember that they travelled with him afterwards. Donna didn't even get that. Although it makes me wonder what she thinks happened that she didn't get married first time around.
"who is the doctor?" "affirmative" such a bad joke, I love it
Hah! I didn’t even realize until you pointed it out
omg i didn't realise either 😭
Who is the Doctor?
Affirmative
That's such a genius line
I love that! So clever. 🥰
Oooh I get it now
wait so the Doctors name is Who?
@@ZUnknownFox I think Missy says that, she calls him Doctor Who and says that's his name
@@ZUnknownFox i think it's another case of "the name you choose is a promise you make". so just like "the doctor" is their name, "doctor who" is too
For those who don't know (I certainly didn't), Aberdeen is over 400 miles away from Croydon. They're basically at opposite ends of the Island of Great Britian.
The Doctor does seem to have a strange tendency to end up in Scotland unintentionally.
CLARA: This isn't my home, by the way.
DOCTOR: Sorry. I'm sorry about that. I missed.
CLARA: Where are we?
DOCTOR: Glasgow, I think.
CLARA: Ah. You'll fit right in. Scottish.
DOCTOR: Right. Shall we, er. Do you want to go and get some coffee, or chips, or something? Or chips and coffee?
CLARA: Coffee. Coffee would be great. You're buying.
DOCTOR: I don't have any money.
CLARA: You're fetching, then.
Next episode:
CLARA: Where the hell have you been?
DOCTOR: You sent me for coffee.
CLARA: Three weeks ago. In Glasgow.
DOCTOR: Three weeks, that's a long time.
CLARA: In Glasgow. That's dead in a ditch.
Honestly I love when the dctore just gets locations wrong like that it's funny every time
But for those who live in other "proper sized" countries, where 400 miles is frankly local - and perhaps doesn't even cross the state-line; the UK has a road-network so bad that we make 400 miles feel like 4000... ;-) It's our own sort of special TARDIS effect where the country feels bigger on the inside!
@@schubertuk yeah it's a good thing his companions live in England and not America, a texan would end up in Washington
@@schubertuk There's a Scottish comedian named Danny Bhoy who does this joke when he performs in Australia or here in Canada where he talks about driving for 9 hours and looking on the map and seeing that he's still in the same state/province. He says "If I’d got a car in Scotland and drove for nine hours, I’d be in the heart of the Czech Republic"
As someone who was born in raised in Aberdeen I can confirm that it would be a piss take to be stranded there, even for half an hour it would suck, and I’ve lived here 20 years so far
There was a place named after it near where I grew up, and that wasn't a fun place either.
did a mysterious man drop you off at some point?
It could have been worse... It could have been Inverness ;-)
Just move to Croydon. I have it on good authority that it's right next door.
How far from Croydon?
As someone who's never watched a full episode of classic Who, I really love the lack of music in that goodbye. It felt more real and relatable. I've said goodbye to a lot of people that I haven't seen again (with hopes to even if it's no longer possible) and it feels just like that. No music, no fanfare. Just parting words and then the ambiance of wherever you are.
Agreed, definitely a case of less is more.
@@hotdog1214 Doctor Who in general is often a case of less budget equalling more creativity.
It'd be quite a thing if dramatic music started playing automatically every time you said goodbye to someone:P
I agree and disagree. There's a beauty to the silence of the moment. But also while we don't have music playing in the background of our most emotional moments, we do listen to music while thinking about these memories. And often we associate specific musical tracks with specific memories or eras of our lives (so much so that when we listen to those tracks again, we feel those feelings rushing back to us, i.e., nostalgia). So adding background music to a scene can be seen as an abstraction of that phenomenon.
Beautiful way of putting it 🥹
It's heartbreaking both in-world and in the real world when the Tenth Doctor sees Sarah for the last time in the End of Time. The last ever appearance for probably the most iconic Doctor Who companion ever...
In the main series anyway. She still had at least a series and a half of her own adventures.
@@dubbingsync Yep, I meant in the main series
No, she sees the 11th doctor in her second to last series.
@@edadankmemes Yep, I meant in the main series
@@edadankmemes Can you not read?
Oh my god, the way she giggles and says "he blew it..." is so wonderful
...and then she talks to a human and finds out she's at least half a day from home, probably with no money.
Elizabeth Sladen deserved her own spin off much earlier than she got it.
agreed but im very happy that i watched it when i did as a kid.
But at the same time, the first one they tried to give her wasn't very good. She deserved a spinoff as good as "The Sarah Jane Adventures" all the way back when they made "K9 And Company", because she definitely deserved better than that one.
She deserved a spin-off that was about her and not random kids.
@@PenneySounds K9&co. was actually one of my favorites. Of course K9 was also my favorite Whoniverse character. Even over the Doctor (heresy I know)
@@anonygent as long as she was happy with what she was making, i don't think it matters what we think she deserved
-who is the doctor?
-affirmative
that's so clever
I love how Sarah-Jane was never mad at the doctor for leaving her, yes she was a little sad, but you can see she held no animosity towards him, I really like that it cuz it shows how close they became
I think she was angry, at least a bit. She talks to Rose at one point and warns her about him
It's also been decades. She could have been angry when she was younger, but learned to let go and forgive him, especially if she thought he was dead.
She was already preparing to leave.
bonus that is NEVER mentioned:When Ten meets Sarah Jane in School Reunion she says "You've Regenerated" and he says "Half a dozen times since we last met" so 6 times.What no one ever mentions is that this was originally a mistake. You don't always catch it as you think oh 4th doctor to 10th doctor, 6 regenerations.HOWEVER! In "The Five Doctors" Sarah Jane meets the 5th doctor, played by Peter Davison.With the addition of the War Doctor, this makes Sarah Jane the only person the Doctor never lied to about how many times he had regenerated.It's a mistake turned long-term easter egg, and it really holds that Continuity together.
Yes but she still talks as if she hasn't seen him since he dropped her off.
@@Jonathan-ic9ef maybe they all got mindwiped or smt lol, five doctors was weird anyway only doctor that embraced or even cared or seemed to be aware of Susan was first doctor when Susan should be completely used to the concept of regeneration as they run away from galifrey, and the older doctors should be even more emotional about seeing her because they didn't see her for a long time
the doctors and the companions on that specials may have their memories of the event automatically erased after they return to their own time stream. with acceptation of the fifth doctor. same thing with the three doctors and day of the doctor. so SJS meeting with the fifth doctor was automatically forgotten.
In retrospect it still holds true with the war doctor existing. 5 to 10+1
the 12th doctor literally went into detail about all 11 generations + the war doctor (so 12 generations) with clara, so she knows about all of them truly too
Imagine growing up to play the person you watched as a child, AND getting to hang out with one of the companions FROM said time! dream come true, RIP Elizabeth Sladen
"He recognises me!" that delivery was diabeetus inducing levels of adorable.
Diabetes.
there are moments when the fan re-emerge. it happened with Hartnell, with baker, McGann, here with tennant, with Smith, and Capaldi (every other episode or so), and it's something that makes the show so much more
you could have used the word sweet
A-firmative ❤
David Tenant saying, "My Sarah Jane!" Still makes me cry.
I love that Sarah/Elisabeth became just as beloved in New Who. Credit for RTD for bringing her back.
You can tell David Tenant was over the moon to be working with Liz Sladen.
This is real dr who.😊
I have to admit watching these clips brought a little tear to my eye. Rest in peace Sarah Jane Smith nobody will ever forget you.
That final hug scene is made even better knowing that Tennant grew up watching Sladen and Tom Baker flying through the stars in that rickety old police box. And now here he is, playing the role of the Doctor, flying that very police box through the stars, and getting to meet and work with Sladen herself. Bet that was truly a magical moment on set. Rest in peace Elisabeth Sladen, you will never EVER be forgotten...
"My Sarah Jane" - then the tears start, every single time.
I like that on multiple iterations of the Dr over different times, K9 knows who he is and how to interact with the Doctor perfectly straight away ... now *thats* great AI programming.
"is this the last time I'm ever going to see you?"
"I don't know."
Rule #1: The Doctor lies.
He did see her after that. Once with that same face, and once more with his next.
He's also regenerated lying down before.
Oh, Liz Sladen. I will always believe that The Doctor loved Sarah Jane in a way he never loved any other companion. It wasn't romantic love. It wasn't familial love. It was simply... love. I think their love rose above a label and a surname. Time didn't change it. Distance didn't break it. Sarah Jane was/is the best companion of them all.
Brilliant set of clips. I'm so glad they decided to make the new series of Doctor Who in continuity with the original series, rather than starting from scratch. It lends depth to its history.
As a Star Trek fan, I can attest that rebooting and reimagining the lore is NOT the way to go about it. Doctor Who did it right.
"My Sarah Jane" - if that isn't a goosebump moment, I don't know what is. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Oh... that last line.
Yes, it was remedied in The Star Beast, but the fact Sarah says no one will EVER forget The Doctor when he KNOWS Donna is going to HAVE to forget him and he'll live with that for thousands of years and his face as Sarah's leaving...
That hurts more than I remembered
That last "don't forget me" is especially poignant given that The Doctor must have only recently lost Donna. You can see it eat him up inside!
It's also poignant because it was the last time Sarah-Jane appeared in the main series before Elisabeth died.
@@hannahk1306nope, there was one time with the eleventh doctor in 2010
I like to think that whenever they had 10 do some stuff with some classic Who things, that David was loving every minute of it due to him being probably the biggest Who nerd to exist
Ehm, Peter Capaldi?
Bit late but you're absolutely right. In a Comic Con Panel in like 2009, there's a video of it somewhere here. David said that it was amazing and surreal to hear his childhood companion call him the Doctor.
Doctor: “I studied geography, well I failed.”
- Smith and Jones, S3 x E1.
So true.
A grown man of sixty should not be moved to tears by a clip from a 'kids' TV show ... but here we are :O
And watching that section with Tom Baker (the bulk of 'my' years tho' Pertwee was truly my Doctor) I suddenly realised why I had such a love for Kaylee from Firefly and Dr. Keller from Stargate Atlantis ... it's because Jewel Staite strongly reminds me of Elisabeth Sladen
Fun fact about the final scene in this video: This was also the final scene David Tennant ever filmed during his tenure as the Tenth Doctor.
No, David said in an interview with The Guardian that his final lines were "You two, with me, spit spot", which is a scene when they're trying to escape the wedding locale early in the episode.
According to the BTS on the DVDs… his last was some wire work for END OF TIME P2
Excluding the 50th
His last scene as the tenth Doctor in Sarah Jane adventures was with the kids inside the wedding venue. And his last scene in Doctor who was against a blue screen falling through the sky towards the Naismith mansion.
@@arthemis1039 Well that was not during his tenure.
For those who want to know Aberdeen and South Croydon are 915.717 kilometers (569 miles) apart.
Jeez. Well, the 12th Doctor could've gotten there perfectly.
@@jaschul He'd have just ended up in Glasgow instead
Thank you, google maps
I wish they'd bring back more characters like Sarah this was so beautiful 😭
You're in luck. Stay tuned for the next episode
@@PenneySounds looking forward to it
Ace and Tegan are coming back later this year for Jodie’s last episode.
@@1978rharris nice 👌
Sadly we're losing those characters one after another... :( And not all of them could easily come back "in universe". The return of Mel is great IMO, as whilst she's by far probably nobody's first choice, I think under RTD she could be brilliant... Although given the last time we saw her, I really don't see how she made her way back to 'current' Earth...
Even now, that bit still gets me, the bit where Tom says"till we meet again Sarah "
Quite poignant that the finale scene was not only the actual last scene David Tennant filmed as the doctor while playing the 10th doctor it was also at a moment where the character knew he was going to die soon.
"Who is the Doctor?"
K9:Affirmative
Underrated gag.
I don't care how much time has passed. Any Moment with The Doctor and Sarah Jane always hurts knowing we don't have Elisabeth Sladen anymore
Despite the enormous talent and creativity that each Doctor has brought to the role, Tom Baker will ALWAYS be my favorite jelly baby!
“Who is The Doctor?”
“Affirmative!”
Missed that first time 🤣🤣
Looking back, it’s so funny how in New Who, they played every goodbye scene with Sarah Jane as a permanent, solemn goodbye, but then she sees him 4 more times and gets her own spin-off show :/
In the last clip, she's gotten over that fear that he'll disappear forever, but he thinks he's going to die soon. They meet twice more after that
David Tenants "He recognizes me!" It just too damn adorable.
Sarah Jane, what a companion. She will never be forgotten.
She was so gorgeous in every possible way. She is truly missed.
I must admit that I quit watching the regenerated series right after the big 50th anniversary special, but I absolutely loved it when it first returned. And the first episode with Sarah Jane and the Tenth Doctor was just magical. When she found the Tardis and then realized she was talking to the Doctor again at last, I think I probably had a tear in my eye.
Is that a new special? With Sarah Jane and the tenth? I don't recall that scene at the end of the video
@@lanewright1143 It's from "Sarah Jane Adventures" and I believe the episode is "The Wedding of Sarah Jane" which had the Tenth Doctor cameo
4:59 davids acting is just fantastic, his face just leaks out the doctor and who the doctor actually is and how the doctor actually feels, makes your heart sink. Its so unreal. Wish i know the song.
The Sarah Jane character ranked with the best of the Doctors, she is sadly missed.
Tom and Liz played Sarah's departure scene beautifully...really gets you in the feels...the best companion farewell scene in the classic series. - Chris
Great compilation! I was worried the SJA scene wouldn’t make it in and then there it was in all it’s quiet beauty.
Missed 11's apperances though.
@@iangreen4572 This isn't a compilation of every time the Doctor and Sarah Jane met, it's just a compilation tracing the running reference of "don't forget me", which doesn't get referenced in 11's SJA appearance.
Thanks. I hadn’t planned on crying today, so well done…
Humany wumany
“No one’s ever going to forget you”
Trust us, we will never forget him and we will never forget you Sarah Jane. RIpP Elizabeth always
She died??? Nooooooo 😭
@@thelaundryman9287Back in 2011 😔
My god, this makes me miss Elizabeth Sladen so much 😔
My mother's favourite classic who companion was Sarah Jane Smith, because her first two names were also Sarah Jane. Unfortunately both her and Elizabeth Sladen died from breast cancer.
RIP to my two childhood heroes
I had some fun pan-and-scanning the 4:3 clips into 16:9. I wish I knew how to upscale the footage though
You could have left the original as 4:3 and had the black bars on the side, then switched to 16:9 with the modern clip. I think it would have looked fine.
@@HeatherAckroyd Yeah, but this looks a little more consistent in terms of format. And it's kind of fun, and makes the video look more unique than just a montage of clips.
I cried so much when Elisabeth Sladen passed away, she was always my favourite companion and I loved her spin off series too!
No one's ever going to forget you, Elizabeth Sladen...
Partly continuity, and partly that when you have a character played by an actress as compelling as Elizabeth Sladen, you bring that actress back every time you can.
Rest in Peace, Liz. you were one of the absolute best! miss you like crazy!
The day someone forgets the Doctor is the day the Doctor looks back and doesn’t feel guilty.
Maybe he’ll eventually forgive himself but I’m pretty sure that guilt will always be there. Even if the majority of his “misdoings” were not his fault he did have some like Gallifrey’s burning and nearly fracturing time because of saving Clara.
Unfortunately, if I recall, Let's Kill Hitler shows guilt in the memory of Donna.
@@r.o.e.408 Most of his companions are a source of guilt. After it showed Rose, Martha, and Donna, it should have shown Adric, and had the Doctor say "Oh come on!"
@@PenneySounds Not super familiar with classic Who. Is that the boy he got killed?
@@r.o.e.408 Yes
@@PenneySounds Yeah, maybe they should have. But I think he asked the TARDIS "show me someone I like," so I guess that was just up to its interpretation.
She was my favorite of all The Doctor's companions by a very long shot, and I had a schoolboy crush on her to boot. So sad she went at still a young age, Rip Elizabeth Sladen
All the scenes with Elisabeth sladen had me in tears 😭 a true doctor who legend
R.I.P Elisabeth Sladen, no one can ever forget you 😢
I am 59 years old today. I still remember that gutted feeling, when Elizabeth Sladen left the Doctor, over 40-odd years ago. I loved her as a companion and Tom of course, was just the perfect Doctor. For me, the most amazing thing about Dr Who, is the emotional blow it delivers to its audience every few years, when a Doctor regenerates or a companion departs: perhaps in many ways, it taught us kids, how to deal with life, the ups and downs...?
With regards to Elizabeth Sladen....a beautiful woman who never seemed to age and I'm so glad she became a star in her own right, with her own show, sadly, all too short a time. My god, I was lucky as a kid: the actors who entertained me, were professional, classy and knew what the hell they were doing!! Great upload, thanks for my birthday present.
That scene at the end was tennant's last scene he filmed in the tardis which is why he began to cry
That goodbye scene with Tennant always gets the tears rolling
Ironically the song Sarah Jane is whistling at the end of "Hand of Fear" is called "Daddy Wouldn't Buy Me A Bow-Wow"; now take into consideration that K-9 hadn't been written into the show yet and the thought of the attempted spin-off "K-9 and Company" was not even a glimmer in Bob Baker and Dave Martin's combined imagination and it just shows how much gold can be found in pure coincidences. ^_^
I didn't even know what the song was until another commenter here told me. I considered cutting out the whistling part, so I'm glad I didn't.
The goodbyes brought me to tears since we will never see Sarah Jane again. RIP Elizabeth
Ill never forget her. I watched 3rd doctor and i loved her adventures. I will never fprget her. Perfectly cast
Sahra : no one's ever gonna forget u
Donna later *forgets the doctor*
That had actually already happened, which was probably why he said that
Someone help remind me - with Capaldi, at one point he's going through a series of notes of polite things to say, and I swear one of them says "I'm sorry I left you in Aberdeen."
Yes, it said "It was my fault, I should have known you didn't live in Aberdeen"
The subtext being, Clara somehow found out about Sara Jane and included that in the flash cards.
@@thegrimmretails3777 Considering her first outing with 12 ended with him abandoning her in Glasgow, I think what happened to Sarah Jane may not have been a one-off
CLARA: This isn't my home, by the way.
DOCTOR: Sorry. I'm sorry about that. I missed.
CLARA: Where are we?
DOCTOR: Glasgow, I think.
CLARA: Ah. You'll fit right in. Scottish.
DOCTOR: Right. Shall we, er. Do you want to go and get some coffee, or chips, or something? Or chips and coffee?
CLARA: Coffee. Coffee would be great. You're buying.
DOCTOR: I don't have any money.
CLARA: You're fetching, then.
CLARA: Where the hell have you been?
DOCTOR: You sent me for coffee.
CLARA: Three weeks ago. In Glasgow.
DOCTOR: Three weeks, that's a long time.
CLARA: In Glasgow. That's dead in a ditch.
DOCTOR: It's not my fault, I got distracted.
To be fair, the Doctor almost never ends up where he thinks he will.
I always loved Sarah Jane. She was my Doctor's companion (Tom Baker and John Pertwee) growing up. When I found out she passed away, I'm not afraid to admit I shed more than a few tears. She was taken away from us far too early.
Rest in Peace, my Sarah Jane. 😢
David Tennant was probably genuinely happy in the scenes with Elizabeth considering he was a big Doctor Who fan
That break in her voice when she says "home"
Now this is what they call powerful writing by those who care about the show and its characters.
Some franchises could learn from this
"Did I do something wrong..?"
*"AFFIRMATIVE."*
The woman who waited
As someone who has never seen an episode of Dr who in their life..this was downright beautiful
I do have a viewing guide if you're interested in trying it out. The link is in the description of my "Doctor Who Minisodes" playlist.
Godspeed, Sarah Jane... And Godspeed Liz Sladen... Never, EVER forgotten...💜
The best companion with number 4, the best Doctor. We'll never see on-screen chemistry on Dr Who like that again; this video just proved it. Great compilation video, Penny. Thank tou.
The chemistry was still able to work just as well with all the doctors she met since. This show is still nailing it, and always will
@@PenneySounds well, we'll agree to disagree, as the Doctor would have it.
Ah, david tennant and catherine tate. What a pair!
@@PenneySounds I mean...with Sarah Jane certainly, with chemistry in *general*, well, the new stuff is pretty rank amateur ain't it
@@HappyLarry. No
Absolutely love this! The scene where Sarah recognizes The Doctor in the reunion show about made me cry! And I loved "The Sarah Jane Adventures."
I don't think I've ever seen a video which connects the Sarah Jane moments like this so directly, its lovely. And now I'm off to find out why someone is cutting onions in here... 😪
It was always be too soon 🥺 but I’m so glad she got the hug she always deserved. What a wonderful character and lovely woman. Vale Elisabeth Sladen 💕💕💕
Tom Baker and Elizabeth Sladen were my introduction to Dr. Who.
Sarah Jane and the 4th Doctor were the best pairing IMHO in the classic series. When I was a kid, I was so saddened by him leaving her...but then laughed when he stayed true to his nutty professor style of leaving her in the wrong town
RIP Elisabeth Sladen...sorely missed 😔
Sahra : don't forget m-
Doctor : so anyways I started to move on
Her saying no one’s ever going to forget you to 10… that hurts so much.
"who is the doctor?" "affirmative"
Such beautiful scenes. At least he got to say goodbye before she passed away.
"No one's ever going to forget you"
Give it 3 seasons Sarah Jane
Tennant was iconic af, he was a doctor to remember.
Christ I don't even watch the show and this got me right in the feels.
That was so needed for me right now. Thanks for this. I may have to go back and rewatch S2, 3, 4... oh can't seem to stop ;)
You missed the one with the 12th Doctor in "Under the Lake" when the Doctor was being anti-social and Clara pulled out cue-cards of prepared not-rude things for him to say, one of them read "I should have known you didn't live in Aberdeen."
4:22 This scene is doubly sad. Not only does the Doctor know hes going to change soon, as SJ's death is canon in show as in real life, and as she only had a couple of years left from that episode, its almost as if he knew that. Thay giant pause between "is this the last time ive ever going to see you?" and the doctors slightly glib, uncommited awnser, plus the thousand yard stare after she leaves almost makes it seem like he knows shes on borrowed time but cannot possibly face up to the fact that she will in fact, die. He knows, to some extent that, yes, this is going to be one of the last time he sees her, and coupled with his own impending sense of mortality it must kill him inside. The doctor knowing the deaths of alot of his companions does seem the kind of morbidly worldwise thing hed do. It adds *layers* of sadness to that one scene.
What a beautiful show and what a beautiful woman. It breaks your heart.
K9 addresses to Doctor as “Master” is hilarious coincidence
Doctor Who breaking hearts around time and space
