I always loved how he stops Morgaine from launching the missile. Just simply explains to her what a nuclear missile does and then even the baddies don't want to use it. Very Doctor Who.
Very fairytale implausible. Very stupid of CND to expect folks to believe that a Soviet Union leadership would be pulled back by a speech like this.
@@conscienceaginBlackadder but it wasn’t directed at the soviet uninon? It was directed at Arthurian knights from another dimension.
@@EditedAF987 But in real life, the purpose of including that bit was for CND propaganda against a defence that was then directed at the Soviet Union. It is openly told googlable history, including approvingly by Sylvester himself, that this period of DW had anti-Thatcher propaganda regularly written in, including this speech written using source guidance from CND.
i guess it's pretty randomly asking but does anyone know a good site to stream newly released movies online ?
@Salvador Nehemiah I dunno I watch on Flixportal. just google after it:P -felipe
That moment at 26:21 is one of The Doctor's most awesome moments ever.
Really love this story - explored some ideas that were completely unique at the time that would later become front-and-center motifs in the new series. I also dug actually seeing UNIT WIN a battle for once, and The Brigadier's final Hero moment is epic. And that speech at the end; brilliant.
I Like how the Brigadier identifies himself, Then Orders them to Surrender. Not Flinching. Miss watching him. May he Rest in Peace.
The Destroyer was a fantastic monster, it's showdown with the Brigadier is sheer brilliance! GET OFF MY WORLD!
_“Pitiful. Can this world do no better than you as it’s Champion?”_
_“Probably, I just do the best I can.”_ *BANG*
@@patchworkfellow The Brig gets all the best lines!
His finest hour.
Any scene with the “Brig” is a highlight.
He is the doctors longest friend and when the Brigadier died The Doctor was not the same again after the Brigadiers death until Kate Lethbridge- Stewart came into his life in 2012
My favourite moment from Battlefield is when Seven + Brig encounter the Destroyer for the first time (which isn't shown here).
Seven tips his hat to Morgaine and starts introducing himself, but the Brig IMMEDIATELY unloads his entire clip into the Destroyer, who looks down at the bullets doing absolutely nothing.
Seven - "Brigadier..."
Brig - "Nothing ventured, Doctor."
Destroyer - "Nothing gained!"
The Destroyer grabs the Brig by the face and throws him out the window like a piece of garbage. It's unintentionally funny, but also makes the second encounter more epic, because despite being so easily defeated, the Brig still goes back to face the Destroyer once more and shouts *"GET OFF MY WORLD"* like an absolute fearless boss of a man.
I'll admit when I started watching Classic Era Doctor Who I didn't really like McCoy as The Doctor, but now having seen more of his Era he is in my Top 5 favorite Doctors.
yep despite for many years being one of the less popular doctors among fandom he's always been one of my favorites
Damn, I see you everywhere
Good lad, he's fabulous.
It's you!
Ace and the Brig. Awesome. Love how she was so joyful with the explosion lol.
Not surprising from a girl who creates her own explosives.
I like how they got the actors back to do the "Subscribe" promo at the end.
The highlight is the whole story
Exactly
@Greyson Deangelo I'd rather watch it legally so I'm actually helping the industry
@@Jack-Oates I dont mean to burst your bubble but this is “legally”, but even if, why knock someone who is interested in hard to obtain media?
@@MaxCreeper392 there was a few comments about an illegal streaming service (thankfully since removed). That is what I was talking about.
Also, I hate to be that person but this isn't hard to obtain media. It's on DVD, Blu-ray, Amazon Prime, Britbox etc
When you live in UK it's easy, but when you live in non English speaking country, the only way to watch is illegally because there is not a legal option
Battlefield is one of my favorite episodes its absolutely fantastic most of the Sylvester era was amazing!
it's such a shame that this would be the last season of old who....
This is litteraly 1/3 of the whole episode.
1/4
@@blobfish5730 It's 1hr 35min including intro and cliffhanger so 1/3
Time for the other 2/3 then
Is that a bad thing?
Well thats nice, now we have a free 1/3 episode of Doctor who to watch, not just one scene.
One of my favourite seventh doctor stories
A favorite. Seeing Lethbridge as a hero like this was epic! Always enjoyed this as one of my favorites
*BBC: We are limited by the technology of our time.*
An a budget of 50p...
@@SuperFunkmachine
new who fan: the 9th had bad special effects
me: oh really ?
@@SuperFunkmachine I'd take that 50p budget over super doopa cgi effects any day of the week
"your suppose to die in bed"....remembering the phone call he got about the brigadier dying.
Oh Sh...ame
That's not what you wanted to say Brigadier Bambera
or in Tegan speak - "Rabbits"
I mean that was probably the initial idea for that to be an oh shit moment but obviously they couldn’t do that
Underrated story
Very underrated trust me😭😭
The entire McCoy era is underrated
@@Walter-Anderson Indeed, but I'd argue S26 in particular is not only underrated, but genuinely one of the best there was.
What is it with Jean Marsh trying to kill Nicholas Courtney?
Yes, they last appeared together in Dr Who, The Dalek Masterplan
@@ellenthorne8222 I think that's what he meant
@@ellenthorne8222 what if he had won every single history test
Nothing bad about the brigadier I hope.
Sara Kingdom wanted revenge for being aged to death....
Possibly already commented or known but at 15:48 BTS there was a technical problem that only Sylvester noticed at this point more or less, like with Sophie already inside, by getting crews attention he helped save sophie life from drowning and possible electrocution
So the scene with his face or the one directly after?
My bad time skills 😅 the bit after where waters up to Sophie's chin and she's banging on the screen
Yup, the glass bowed and broke, water started gushing out onto the floor with cables for lights everywhere. McMoy yelled to get her out and they cut the power. In the full episode you see her going up even though the water isn't that high, it's because she's being pulled out out of danger.
You can see the glass crack in the full film and start to leak all over the studio electrics.
special features on this dvd : sophie Aldred "Sylvester saved my life"
I’m currently trying to watch all of classic dr who ,which means I would have watched all streamable episodes of the best show in the world,I’m on season 7 (Inferno part 7)
I did the same a few years ago, you won't be disappointed :)
Just remember he was born in the previous Whoniverse (not on Gallifrey) but on the Earth that became Mondas after it was stolen from that Whoniverse and taken over to the classic Whoniverse with a mother from the classic Whoniverse Earth and a father from "Mondas" and he traveled around with amongst his sister in the TARDIS aka (Romana or as most know her as Rose/Bad Wolf Girl/Tyler or as almost noone knows; the New White Guardian over time (not the White guardian seen during 4th and 5th but the new one) Mother of an most evil child that grew up alongside his 1/2 father (Mel style) on Gallifrey....
@Kenneth Nyström I know the lore I’ve watched the show for four years....do you actually think this or are you mocking about?
@@thearchanglenetwork7598 some people have some really weird theories about Dr Who that they state as fact I don't know if Kenneth falls in this catagory or if he's trolling either way I'm not buying what he's selling !!!
@@mrjekyllandhyde9941 He's been doing it for years. He's a bit like a senile grandparent you don't take seriously because he's a loony who hasn't got long left, so you just humour their nonsense and say "haha okay grandpa :)"
20:55 "THERE - WILL BE - NO - BATTLE HERE!!!" Good acting by McCoy.
Lol
Seems like 11 took notes from 7's book
This is not only one of my favourite Seventh Doctor episodes but also my favourite Doctor Who episodes of all time
18:46-18:48
"I *AM* the Brigadier!"
"So am I."
"Brigadier,I thought you retired."
"So did I....Brigadier."
Nowadays,such a show of mutual respect and appreciation between two very different,yet very similar individuals would be unthinkable.
Alistair Gordon Lethbridge Stewart is the true Brigadier I honestly didn't like Winifred Bambera as she was so rude the to REAL brigadier
brigadier finally getting an alien menace who isnt immune to bullets
Nice to see someone else picked up on that. As his last Classic Who appearance it's a perfect send-off to get his greatest wish fulfilled.
@@ShadowWingTronix It is kind of sad in away because we wouldn't see him again until the Sarah Jane Adventures
@@johannahyde-parker8422 I want to know who thought turning him into a Cyberman as a way to live "forever" was a good idea. I don't think it's an insult but it's not a fitting tribute, either.
@@ShadowWingTronix it is an insult and I personally don't agree with it not very respectful
@@johannahyde-parker8422 I don't think it was intended as an insult at least. Nicholas Courtney had passed away and they thought keeping the Brigadier alive was a proper tribute. To me the issue is HOW they made it happen, which wasn't something the character would have been happy with. Can't say for certain about the actor but I'd be surprised if he would have found it a fitting memorial. They just shouldn't have done it. The Doctor mourning his loss was a better tribute.
5:35 His cane looks like the Riddler’s cane
That is an umbrella
This was last story with Nicholas Courtney as The Brigader.
Truth.
well there that one we don't talk about, downtime and the audio's.
It's a pity he was never in new who.
he was originally meant to die in this story but in the end they couldn't go through with killing off the brig
@@mrjekyllandhyde9941 lets be honest, who could?
@@MatthewsStopMotions not death in heaven Nicholas had passed away several years before
The Brigadier Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart encounters the Seventh Doctor incarnation. Introduction of the Brigadier and the Seventh Doctor Sylvester McCoy. The friendship of the Doctor and the Brigadier is so special and it's remembered highly through all the Doctors incarnations over the years. It's like the Doctor never forgotten about the Brigadier Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart because the Brigadier was one of the Doctor's closest dearest friends and when Sir Alastair dies it does hit the Doctor pretty badly because they were such good dear friends for years.
This was a good story
Edited to an Amazing perfectly digestible size and all the right highlights BRAVO
Ace was my favorite companion.
Loved this episode! Got it on vhs
If the Master can be Rasputin, 7 can totally be Merlin!
Interesting fact Marek Anton who played the Destroyer also played Russian soldier Prozimov in the Curse of Fenric.
Proz*or*ov, but yes.
Indeed, it was his performance as Prozorov that convinced JNT he should be the Destroyer! (The quirks of shooting so massively out-of-sequence)
"Professor . . . can't see anything." "One of the things Ford Prefect had always found hardest to understand about human beings was their habit of continually stating and repeating the obvious, as in It’s a nice day, or You’re very tall, or Oh dear you seem to have fallen down a thirty-foot well, are you alright?" Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."
I wonder how well The Doctor would do against The Goosebumps monsters.
5:06 oh hey theres a pepsi advertisment
The boom sequence is better in the special edition
The Brigadier Alastair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart saving his good old dear friend the Doctor. The Brigadier has had many run ins and encounters with the six previous Doctors incarnations. That's why this friendship with the Doctor and the Brigadier is remarkable and remembered very highly as the other Doctor incarnations after the Sylvester McCoy Doctor Who stories finish.
It seems that the Doctor always needs to be saved by the Brigadier and that's highly special. The Brigadier and the Seventh Doctor Sylvester McCoy meeting for the first time.
Dr Who working on cartoon physics at 4:53 😅
One of my favorites. Shame that New Who never used Brigadier Bambera.
Agreed, she’s _such_ a bad@ss! If anything, we got Kate Stewart and Petronella Osgood instead, who are as good, if not better :)
@@patchworkfellow You think? Bambera was believable as an actual soldier, KLS and Osgood not so much.
She was meant to reappear in The Zygon Invasion. The Colonel Walsh character was originally written as her. Not sure why it was changed, maybe they couldn't get the actress.
@@Sir_Gerald_Nosehairs. Angela Bruce only does Westend now
fun fact: despite "Battlefield" being the season opener this wasn't intended as such... "Curse of Fenric" was set to be the opener as it constantly hid the new brown jacket under the trench coat Sylvester wore...
My fav episode ever
Brigadier Bambera aka the female Lister in "Red Dwarf"
4:49 I've never seen anyone say "BOOM!" with such obvious relish
Bambera needs more recognition as the Brigadier, she has been more or less erased from, history with the new series. I hope RTD brings her back
good I don't like her anyway the real brigadier is better then she is and Kate is a good leader like her dad
God I love 7s TARDIS!!
I love the relationship between sylv and sophie one of the best Dr companion chemistry there's been !!!
GET
OFF
MY
WORLD
"Merlin! Prince of deceit. Another trick!"
It's speculated by some that the metacrisis Doctor becomes Merlin in timey-wimy stuff. BUT... What if Merlin is the Doctor we know and the Metacrisis Doctor became Arthur ...and Morgain is Rose after they both find a way to travel back in time and something happens that splits them apart irreversibly?
I'm just thinking ideas because I've wanted a sequel to this tory since I first saw the original air.
Battlefield was one of the first Doctor Who episodes I ever watched and led me to becoming a longtime fan.
You the moment he said "You should have died in bed" hits a bit different since it was written into the show years later in the Revival 😅 24:25
A shame we never got Ben Aaronivitch's original vision of the knights. He imagined them as futuristic knights rather than the cheap ones that ended up in this story.
half that armour is white rose plate it isn't cheap.
Doctor Who vs the Evil Queen from Willow.
Great story
Great to see past episodes of
"Down is not the problem...." 9:14
:)
That and "How goes the day" are a pair of my favourite lines in the series. So many good lines though.
Edit: And "Probably, I just do the best I can."
Nice they got Sly and Sophie for the end promotion, funny as always.
lol @ 26:21
23:18 Genuinely Epic
They painted the Tardis the wrong shade of blue by looking at the darker phone panel. Looks odd 😅
Boy when you see Sylvester and Sophie asking you to subscribe, you can't help but notice that the 80s were long ago.
10:00 5 million pounds worth of aircraft 😂😂😂😂
Did they not almost have a really accident with Sophie in the cabinate of water.
Brilliant episode!
Jean Marsh is superb - scary and totally convincing.
I still fancy Ancelyn lol
She is a fantastic actress especially in this Return To Oz and Willow
0:45--SIX rounds rapid.
Wonderful dr who
Love Ace!!!!
Lovely
Cool.
Isn't that Bavmorda?
the bad guys at the start look kinda like theyre from the narnia show with tom baker
Let that be your last Battlefield.
When will Merlin return?...
Was the whole merlin thing reconciled in future series? I would love that.
This was the last Season of Classic Who, so I mean if you've seen all of New Who, you tell me :P
From the audios I've heard, it hasn't been either
Well River Song once says that all good wizzards turn out to be the doctor ... But other than that i sonst think so
The whole of the Arthurian cast are stated to come from another dimension (take note, Robot of Sherwood), so that’s probably the answer.
05:17 Ace calling The Doctor "The Professor"? any context on this scene? Captain?
She's always calling him Proffesor, you must not have seen much of McCoy's era
@@BenNightHound thank you for the answer, yes you're quite right actually, sadly only a few of Sylvester McCoy's Doctor i can get a glimpse on, and that's all from youtube :'-(
@@petirgarda1005 Ace calls him the professor most of the time even when he repeatedly tells her he is the Doctor not "the Professor" although when in peril she will refer to him as "Doctor"
It's an in joke. Because he's called the Doctor, she calls him the Professor, because that's a similar job. It's just a nickname she calls him affectionately to annoy him
@@petirgarda1005 Then I’d suggest you get the DVDs/BDs so you can experience the stories fully.
How did the brig have time to change uniform in a crash helicopter?
I'll explain later
The Brigadier Sir Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart is back. After getting word that the Doctor is back the Brigadier goes off to meet him. Only to have to find the Doctor in a spot of a troubled situation. When the Brigadier finds the Doctor and he rescues his good friend the Doctor. The Brigadier stands on something that has been trapping the Doctor from getting out of there safely but it's always been the Brigadier who comes to the Doctor's rescue when he's in a trapped situation and can't get out. But as always. The Brigadier always has a way of getting the Doctor safely out of danger. Their friendship was a friendship that didn't come very often. When the Brigadier died. The Doctor was never the same again until the Brigadier's daughter Kate Stewart came into the Doctor's life that is.
They are family after all
So has any Doctor yet visited the past as Merlin to build this yet?
Open up its me!
Idied😂
4 and boii this is God
Always hated how child like Ace was, running around in her twentys acting like she's five or came from a care home.
Wow
Did Big Finish ever explore the idea of The 7th Doc becoming Merlin?
One of the books did
It was getting better with better writers so instead of investing...lets stop... thank the gods it kept going with audio, lost epidodes, comic relief sketches very bad in eastenders but still on Radio and tv.
60 years it is already amazing... GO RUSSLE T
Trop cool
Merlin sequel 😂😂😂
Muito bom 🇧🇷
24:29 the doctor cradles the brigadier in his arms
I don't like the female brigadier as she was like oh I am better then everyone type attitude Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge Stewart is the true Brigadier he's got way more experience then what she has got. She just rubbed me the wrong way because she treated the brigadier Badly then what she should have I'm surprised that he didn't put her in her place
20:51
Trailer DVD Series 12?????
What do you mean?
@@BenNightHound I think he wants to watch the trailer for jodie Whittakers series 12 for some reason
@@mrjekyllandhyde9941 oh right, thanks
Oh boy, these old episodes had huge gaps in them and this one I could hardly hear.
I would love if this had subtitles
As a Doctor Who fan this was a very strange era
This story could have been so much more
I noticed that the TARDIS is missing the wording Police Public Call Box. So it starts damn it!
The Romans had concrete that was superior to that we use today.
I didn't really care for Brigadier Winnifred. She had a sort of snobby "I'm smarter than you so shut up" kind of air about her. She could've learned a thing or two from the TRUE Brigadier. RIP Sir Alistair
So they have guns but keep fighting with swords?
I assume their swords and armour are far superior to anything on earth and that is why they use them as well as guns, however the low budget leaves this to the imagination!
Cool. No need to purchase this one now 😄
@@lolek05 its the majority of all the intresting parts of it
Trust me, buying the whole story is well worth it as it is such a brilliant and intresting story!
nothing beats having the dvd on ya shelf imo
@@mrjekyllandhyde9941 I know right!
Ikr, there's never any need for me to watch the actual show again because I can just watch reaction videos of each episode condensed down to a fraction of the sotry in snippets :D
One things is for sure.
Ling Tai was a better actress than Jodie Whittaker - and that is not saying much.
