i hope its alright for me to say so, but in all this talk about outfits, i really love yours in the 80s run of costumes! One outfit that does get overlooked is the Seventh Doctor's 'New Adventures' outfit, often shown on the covers. Still with his hat, umbrella, and shoes, his shirt would vary between light blue or white, he took to wearing a red, green or beige tie, and his suit was more like a linen suit jacket and trousers, with a smiley 'Have a Nice Day' face badge on his left lapel, and sometimes the silk scarf would reemerge again. If you google 'Doctor Who New Adventures' and add the titles 'Sky Pirates', 'The Also People', and "Strange England" you can see how the outfit looks. Would be interesting to hear your opinions, and I hope you have a lovely day!

i love your analysis videos so much, especially as someone who is watching the classic series at the moment and loves when creators go beyond just new who in their analysis!! also side note: your eye makeup suits you so so well

Thank you for making this I have loads because we found them in my stepdad mum's attic 14:58 I have this one 16:01 also this one

I prefer the Doctor being special on their own merits. I love that about our favourite silly little guy!

Strongly recommend (World Distributors') DW annual from the early 80s which has a load about why they did Davison in cricket whites and has nicely reproduced artwork...

The boots went missing hence the shoes magically appearing and I'm fairly sure it was rumoured that tom may have nicked them but don't quote me on that. also I just wanna say question marks on collars rule!

26:10 Ive always found Nixons line at the end of that episode rather strange as it implies that Nixon thought that Canton was kicked out the FBI for wanting to marry a black woman. Which would make no sense for Nixon to think that as interracial marriage was legal in 1969 when the episode is set. The only reasons an fbi agent would be fired for wanting to marry someone in 1969 is if they were gay or if they wanted to marry a criminal or spy or some crazy stuff. So idk why Nixon would assume its the race.

YEAR OF INTELLIGENT TIGERS MENTIONED!?!?

The story that William Hartnell wouldn’t work with gay men is nonsense‼️ A few years before he became the Doctor he starred in a film called carry on sergeant,the first of 31 films with the carry on name. Over 70% of the cast were gay‼️🏳️‍🌈

Can you do a costume retrospective of the new era!!

I've never watched a TH-cam video that's had me shouting at my phone more than this one 🤣😭

A tip for this game is that if you put the number of the season it gives you all the options

could you maybe do some ranking videos of companions/seasons/doctors i feel like ur perspective would be unique and very interesting :))

Great video! I found the stuff about Hartnell and Troughton's costumes being influenced by contemporary fashion super interesting. I hope you do more Doctor Who costuming videos!

The Kerblam! one was super sneaky, giving you a still from The Ghost Monument, which is where my mind went first.

Me shouting "Zygons!" at the lift in a tunnel.

Think William hartnel’s costume Did change when he regenerated into Troughton. As there was apparently a theory that the doctors costume was like his skin and changed body’s

Also thank you for letting know this exists, I will definitely not hyperfixate on this game and will definitely have plenty of free time for for other commitments this month😂😂

It's been too long since I rewatch a meaningful amount of the show I'm getting rustier than k9

I loved this, it was so much fun! So chill and vibey

What an enjoyable video 😊

I've got a couple of tips that I use when I play. The aspect ratio changes after Capaldi's era so if you have an image with black bars at the top and bottom, it's from a 13, 14 or 15 episode. Also, you can type seasons/episodes if you forget the name. For example, type S13 for anything from Flux or S10E02 for Smile. I spend way too much time playing this game.

I will be the one person who sticks up for Kerblam. I think it’s neat.

I’m with you, I love Hazy Who too

Oh I love whodle so much! I mainly struggle with the flux ones because I dont recognize any of the titles and two parters haha

Ok, no cheating, I’m gonna see how many of these I get. Ngl I kinda wanna do my own version of this video one day.

This is such a good idea

I had the sense that the moment in Rosa when the TARDIS crew had to reinforce the racist status quo in order to preserve that key moment in the civil rights movement was making a point about the nature of allyship and what it means to be subject to racism vs an onlooker. I got the sense it was quite a subtle allegorical point. But that's just my interpretation. I don't think it was failing to be a sophistocated antiracist message like you suggest.

i know this isn't the focus of the video, but since you mentioned the family of blood story, can i just say: i think maybe my least favorite moment is the doctor asking the racist nurse if she wanted to come with him at the end. i truly believe martha would've called him out on it if she had been present for the conversation, and maybe even would have left him. and the way he just casually thanked her when everything was over like "oh btw thank you for taking care of me :)" after everything she had to endure for him. ten is my second favorite doctor and martha's one of my favorite companions, but season 3 is always so disheartening to rewatch because it's full of moments like that where she's being disrespected not only by the doctor, but by the narrative itself. not to mention that they pair her with mickey (rose's ex, after a full season of her being compared to rose) out of nowhere, despite her already having a previously established partner. just sucky. but it must be said that despite all that, she still felt more like a real character than any of thirteen's companions, even yaz who we got 3 whole seasons with. i think it goes to show that though RTD is definetely not perfect, his grasp on writing characters (including side and one-off characters) is much, much stronger than chibnall's.

Wonderful video!!! I agree that you should make more Doctor Who content! Maybe more in depth studies of some of the characters you mentioned? A video about River or Jack? Also, I'd like to see your opinions about the Fifteenth Doctor and his season. I'll have to check your other videos.

This might not be what you mean but IIRC Troughton's fur coat was a plot point in that Travers is supposed to mix up the Doctor's coat and the appearance of the Yeti...

youre actually an icon for wearing a fez to school

No

I fucking love doctor who like yes you go my gender fluid bisexual aroacespec alien baddie (goodie). I also have Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly multiple personality disorder) which affects my queer identity, all my “personalities” are literally different people with different queer identity and as a huge lifelong DW fan and I absolutely love and relate to the fact that the doctors different incarnations seem to have different queer identities too, for example some of them being attracted to women, some men exclusively, some ace coded, etc. My disability and identity in that also intersects with my gender and queer identity, somewhat from my DID and somewhat from other things I won’t go into but I’d love to see a video about the disability representation in Doctor who as it’s a mixed bag. It’s also worth noting that Torchwood has a LOT of queer rep, some of it a mixed bag though

great video! i have a few small queer(ish) doctor who facts you didn't mention first of all, the character of Alpha Centauri from the third doctor serials The Curse Of Peladon and The Monster Of Peladon. They're described as a "hermaphrodite hexapod", though they're referred to with masculine pronouns in the show. But in later audio dramas they're referred to with they/them pronouns the eighth doctor's extended universe companion Fitz was implied to be in love with the doctor, and this was later confirmed by writer Stephen Cole. in issue 590 of Doctor Who Magazine, Sophie Aldred is interviewed about Ace's iconic jacket, she says she got the idea from someone in a gay club. quote: "One night I went to a gay club, and there was a guy standing at the bar wearing a black flight jacket with a Blue Peter badge on it - so I thought of him." Also, because you were looking for pre-internet fanworks: a while ago, i found an ao3 account by someone transcribing their grandma's old handwritten doctor who fanfiction. there are doctor/master fics from the 80's. I'm not entirely sure if these are actually that old or if it's just someone trying to get attention, but if it is real it would be pretty cool. their username is castrovalvangrandma. warning: most of them are very explicit and quite wild

River is definitely bi in the episode "the husbands of river song" the doctor and river make a list of who they married and i find it very funny that they both married Cleopatra

Also the conversation between the doctor and bill where he says "she was my man crush (talking about the master) and i'm pretty sure i was a man back then too and then he says that timelords are too evolved to care about something like gender and then bill says "but you still call yourselves timelords" it was a very funny exchange 🤣

As an asexual person I always thought that Matt Smiths doctor was definitely ace. From his funny fulfilling stereotypes to his notable lack of strong romantic relationships, to his repulsion towards Amy and Rory when they kiss, he fit the bill perfectly. Also not all asexual people are repulsed by certain aspects associated with physical romance, for example hugging or kissing

This is a fantastic video, really good job. I am now silently awaiting a potential part 2 as i would love to hear you analyse each of the Revival doctors looks. A part of me also hopes you take a look at the non traditional doctors (such as shalk or curse of fatal death) but another, more reasonable part is aware how much more work that wiuld be

Looking back on you talking about exploring gender identity and lack of equity in the past is REALLY interesting now that Ncuti gatwas series has dropped. Something like the doctor changing gender is MASSIVE! And it was only really mentioned in a throw away line in the witch trials episode, when the king refused to believe the doctor was the leader. But much like gender identity, racial identity is another massive thing that effects the doctor now, without him realising at first (as shown in the episode Dot and Bubble, which really showed that he’s lost his ability to save people because of his skin colour… something that was never a question or problem!) so I do think it was a missed opportunity, having seen a realisation of change in identity episode, that they didn’t write a hard hitting one for Jody.

I’ve always thought of the Doctor as genderfluid, even before 13. It just makes sense with the regeneration that they wouldn’t always be a guy.

Fun fact the dark eyes outfit was mcgann idea he wanted the TV movie but the producers refused

The Doctor & Jamie McCrimmons were definitely gay-

Anyone can change gender. Humans can change gender, starting off identifying female and then identifying as either male or non-binary. The Master, The General and The Doctor, all changed sex so could be seen to be Transsexual, rather than gender fluid, and while The Doctor and Yaz's relationship would be same sex but is consistent with the Doctor's attractions throughout previous incarnations. I think the reason LGBT+ people are attracted to Doctor Who as a show is because, as you say it has a group of misfits, running around time and space. Beta males like myself are attracted for similar reasons as well as the Doctot being a different kind of role model when compared to other heroic figures.

One of my favourite type of characters is what I like to call "The Ace Troll." They are Ace (possibly Aro too) and they have a troll streak. That 4th Doctor line "You're a beautiful woman... probably" is just such an iconic Ace Troll. They're certainly alot more fun than the grumpy patronizing stereotype or the naive ignorant character we often get.

Doctor Who made me start questioning my sexuality.

I havs become woke. The destroyer of injustice.

A refreshing and insightful dive into a flawed era

Remember to turn your volume back down after watching.

Great vid
