- In this video, we look at the Tardis console of Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor and the changes and modifications made to it over the course of the prop's career.

I think you inadvertently call Philip Hinchcliffe “Tom Hincliffe” when talking about the secondary console…
Is that a 'baptism by blunder', and henceforth the instigator of Gothic Classic Who shall be known as Phillip no longer and will be Tom Hincliffe, and a call went out for a clean up on console room floor two, as even though there wasn't a font, the fault locator would have blown a bulb, repeatedly flashing on and off everytime the image of the secondary console room was flipped when it was discussed and held up when a comparison with previous control rooms were made.
Fantastic video! This is the kind of stuff I wish they had on the DVDs and blu-ray sets!
This channel rocks. Always been fascinated by the PCB and the TARDIS, cannot wait to see what you do next!
secondary control room will always be my favorite.
Great tracking of all of the changes! Nice work. Really fun to see all of the hacks and story changes animated like this. 5:07
A sad footnote: the secondary control room disappeared in part because the panelling warped in storage.
I was about to add a comment to that effect as well, about the wood warping due to poor storage, before I saw yours. I always felt this a real tragedy of Dr Who, because I really loved the cosy, old-timey feel of the secondary console room!
Was it also left in the rain at one point? Or am I thinking of something else?
I think you might be referring to the enterprise A bridge set before filming on star trek the undiscovered country began the set was placed outside and was damaged beyond repairing a freak rain storm
@@JackRodgers-so9oh Hmmm, so I see. I guess my memory must've cheated in some way.
The secondary console room was never damaged or warped. In fact the walls where repainted and used as corridor walls until 1983 and the scanner unit repainted and used in the season 15 console room onwards
I was hoping for a whole video dedicated to the secondary console room and console. Guess there's not a lot more to say, but it's such a gorgeous design. ☺️
It was so atmospheric and, for me as a kid, pretty mind-bending to discover that an alien spaceship could be decked out like that.
The 4th Doctor era console prop was the same one as used by the 3rd Doctor - the panel layout was just revamped for it's appearances in Season 13. So calling it the third prop is inaccurate - it's still the second prop but with a significant amount of control alterations and a few changes to the rotor.
*I apologise for the "umm, actually" nature of this comment, I just thought that's worth noting - good video regardless.*
It's kind of funny - TARDIS Builders has this information but another popular source, themindrobber's console history page, still says it's new- so you can probably tell where someone did their research depending on whether they say it's a new prop. (I'm sure the TARDIS Builders consensus is correct, having made a virtual model myself the details all line up)
How long have you been holding onto that one at 01:20 ? 😅
no mention of the changes to the time rotor that happened between state of decay and warriors gate?
The horns of NYE-mon (Nimon) not N'Mon
I prefer yours. 😉
I admit that I like console ‘minimalism’ but these controls almost look _too_ simplistic to be functional . . .

Would gladly do without that droning background sound. 👎
