Now you mention it I want to see midnight edited now to have random clips of donna getting a massage/pedicure etc etc. Like the doctors being dragged out then suddenly donna lying down relaxing with cucumber over her eyes for 5-10 seconds then back to the doctor being dragged. It wouldn't improve the episode and probably make it worse but I'd like to just see it now
Could we not also say Blink breaks away from the typical formula as well? Doc and Martha basically have the regular episode offscreen whilst we follow a protagonist who we have never met before or see again. Sparrow seems to have multiple companions but two get Angled before the ep sticks with one. Yes I suppose the Angels are a typical villain at least in terms of motive: they want to steal the tardis. But even when it comes to saving the day, on surface level it seems the Doctor saves Sparrow and co. But technically Sparrow instructed the Doctor, who then in instructed Sparrow, who then told the Doctor, who then informed Sparrow, who then Bootstrap, bootstrap, bootstrap.... Which of course means, does the text above matter? Considering Heaven Sent is the superior episode to Blink... probably not :P
They do break from the formula, but in a different way. He's talking about the episodes that have the Doctor on his own. You're talking about the episodes that barely have the doctor - Blink, Love and Monsters, Etc.
@@troytab6089 I thought of Love and Monsters in this context. Then I tried to erase it from my thoughts. I can't remember why DT and BP were unavailable (filming on location or something?) but Blink demonstrates that you can, with some imagination, get round that, just as when Bill Hartnell was ill, they made the Doctor invisible (a prank by the Celestial Toymaker). In those days, shows were live, and took up 50 weeks a year. Even the most dedicated actors need family time, holidays, etc, so scripts were written with one or more of the main cast missing, or "somewhere else". It's still done on soaps, Aaron Dingle "in Italy" because Danny Miller was, irl, on paternity leave and in the "Jungle" for I'm a Celeb. Love and Monsters, on the other hand, shows how NOT to deal with the problem.....
I personally wish they’d vaguely implied that the doctor is like that now because of the trauma of the time war. I get he’s seen wars before, but it’s a bit different when you childhood Starbucks is being bombed.
@@urmomdotcomhomefromnam1083 Correct! But that was already part of _Heaven Sent,_ the entire point of _Heaven Sent_ is that The Doctor is trapped in the _first_ stage of grief the entire time, denial. He simply refuses to accept Clara's death and let her go, the narrative tricking us into thinking of this as a good thing, when in fact it's an incredibly toxic and unhealthy way to proceed after someone has died. Moffat has talked about this, from the HS lockdown watch along. "Compare and contrast: what the Dr THINKS Clara would say to him (get up off your arse and win) and what the real Clara says in Hell Bent (why would you do that to yourself?) Weird thing - the best scene in Heaven Sent is in Hell Bent (Dr and Clara in the cloisters)."
*So basically, Heaven Sent is an episode that's SO good, that its biggest and only flaw is that not everyone can handle just how brilliant it is.* *What a fckn alpha of an episode.*
@@KingCrab85 yes and no. The doctor always resented Rassilon and his sycophants and blamed them for basically being responsible for the time war and culminating in Claras death. He doesn't hate the people of Gallifrey, just the higher-ups who govern it. As for his fleeing to the end of time, so Clara doesn't have to die is an issue that is more psychological than political I suppose...
@@KingCrab85 yessss(begrudgingly).... I have to agree there... they should have made more drama about the doctors return... it should have been... But I also kinda understand... because he spent all those years having human relationships with his friends and whatever he wants to call them...
I really can't see how, other than Hell Bent actually being decent. Fr if that episode was just the Doctor fighting the Time Lords on Gallifrey, I'd've been fine with that. Certainly better than what we got. @@hb4080
So true. Capaldi's run was the only one that i had absolutely no spoilers for (besides the fact that clara died) so everything in it, like when he went blind, just hit even more. especially this. my heartstrings were in pieces
That's a treasured moment for me. One of my brothers missed our first viewing and we all immediately wanted to rewatch it with him. We all agreed that we wouldn't say a word to him for the entire episode
The first time I saw Heaven Sent, the tonal shift from the previous episode bothered me. I've found that in subsequent views, where I already know whet the episode is trying to accomplish, the tonal shift doesn't bother me and I can appreciate it on its own merits. Every time I watch it, I like it more.
Heaven Sent really doesn't require previous knowledge of Doctor Who to enjoy. I actually mixed the episode where Clara died and was confused at first. But the story it tells is amazing, whether or not you like Doctor Who.
Actually the first Doctor Who story to run past the watershed was the TV Movie which ran in a 90 minute slot starting at 8.30. This late start time didn't prevent the episode being cut for violence (bizarrely the BBFC decided that the VHS release had to have the same cuts). This meant that the uncut version was unseen by UK viewers until BBC2's Doctor Who night 3 1/2 years later.
I think the TV move is... decent? Which tbh puts me in that category because the most common opinion is is that it's bad, I'd say that ace is the best classic companion
This is one of the few times when TH-cam doesn't recommend me something good but something amazing, great analysis and comedic timing. Already subscribing.
I watch a lot of tv but I have a very tiny mind so I tend to forget a lot of what I’ve watched, including many episodes of Doctor who. I’d completely forgotten how Clara died and the whole plot of that episode but I still remembered Heaven Sent. For some reason it was just a memorable episode to me.
Great production value on this video, kudos. Can't believe I haven't seen your channel before. Subscribed. The Clara scream dub caught me by surprise too, hilarious.
I really like hearing your thoughts on Doctor Who! This video made me watch your other one on Kerblam. I'd love to hear about any of your favorite EU stories/fanmade content, especially for the 8th Doctor.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 nothing weird about it, it's a great psychological episode (like "Last Christmas") that plays with the idea of the unreliable narrator. And Reece Shearsmith was great in it.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 absolutely. A lot of my favourite films and shows are the psychological ones, especially unreliable narrator stories (like "Joker") - so episodes like "Last Christmas", "Sleep No More" and "Amy's Choice" are stand-out episodes for me.
The 8th doctor audios are so good that Paul Mcgann is unironically my 2nd favorite Doctor and Charley is my fav companion. The movie is weird but it's not bc of Paul Mcgann. Anyone who likes Doctor who should give it a try.
Just wanted to say keep up the good work! I found your channel today and have watched like 4 or 5 episodes in a row now. I was really surprised to see you only have 1.4k subscribers, I’m sure you will go on to get a lot more soon! You have the humour and editing on par with a much bigger channel.
Agreed. New viewer here, and I watched the video before I looked at his sub count and was shocked to see it so low. The quality is fantastic and he'll undoubtedly grow very quickly. Just earned a new sub from me.
I agree totally with you…that was one of the elite written and acted doctor who episodes. Top 3 in writing and acting. It carried so much emotional weight in a brilliant idea of a situation. I watch that episode every couple of months.
I think the show’s core value is in its juxtaposition of being for the masses and for the fans. In addition I think the shows very nature is that of a swinging pendulum since in the Hartnell years there was the “history vs. science” back-and-forth where episodes set in the future had more fantastical elements but setting that involved the past were much more grounded.
Great video! I just wish you talked just a liiiiiittle bit slower in the voice over segments. I had a little difficulty keeping up with the amount of information presented in some of the voice over segments You have a really good presence and have good points. Have faith that viewers will stick around if you take a more measured pace. We want to hear your analysis and conclusions so we’ll stick around regardless of how long it takes. :)
An hour with Peter Capaldi should've been great and I can't fault his performance, but visually the whole episode is grey, slate and murky variations thereof, maybe they just conveyed grief TOO WELL
Because Dr Who is for everyone, it means that I can still watch it with my family like I did when I was a kid in 2005. We don't watch the regular episodes cuz I don't live at home anymore but we watch the Specials together. I like how Dr who is for everyone because it means that anyone who watches it will probably find something they like. And we can all be emotionally scared by that dude's face being turned into a gas mask in yhe Empty Child
As a 40 year old man who’s watched since C Baker, I never thought I’d be subscribing to a channel like yours, but you’re utterly impressive…I’ve subbed…keep it up, I’ve no doubt I’ll be bragging about being one of the first 2k very soon. Awesome job, great humor and information given out simultaneously
Only just started watching your vids but by GOD do I like them! You put so much effort, soul and charisma into your work I’m honestly baffled and genuinely jealous! Good points well made too ^_^
That really is handsome wallpaper. Anyhow I agree with the sentiment that Dr. Who should jump from from high concept to low concept episodes. You can have both honestly. Also the Nielsen rating system is total crapshoot. It's why I dislike focus groups.
for sure my favourite of your videos! also i do not accept fear her slander only because i had dr who top trumps and the fear her ones were the most mysterious to my addled child brain
Good production! I enjoyed the humour you used! And you talked about "heaven sent" for 10% of the total duration of the video... Maius extra qua intra? Cheers
Well you meandered around getting to point.... But it was a very good point, about Doctor Who at it's core being appealing to everyone, when you finally got to it 😃

@@irrevenant3 with a setup that is difficult to believe at best, so the master can just snoop in the archives and find it that easily? An execution of this sort of twist that is far better that I can think of to compare to would be (spoilers for The Boys season 3) Homelander confirming his father is Soldier Boy, that worked because this was something orchestrated by the people at the head of Vought and Homelander was able to find this information by taking that authority.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 I immediately had to stop reading when I hit "spoiler for S3 the Boys" (and thank you for tagging that, BTW!). I personally didn't have a problem with that aspect of it. The Master has a ton of experience with the Matrix from past serials, and is uniquely obsessed with the Doctor. If anybody was going to find an obscure record in the Matrix and realise it referred to the Doctor, it would be him.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 the Master finding obscure information in the Matrix isn't at all out of character. In fact, you can basically sum the Master's entire character over the last 6 decades as a kind of spy version of Tyrion Lannister - he wears disguises and he knows things.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg no, its not out of character for him to snoop but for that information to be accessible by anyone on the master's level of intelligence is logically hard to believe at best when it's one of the biggest, if not the biggest secret of the timelords

I have to say I quite liked Flux, it was the only part of the Chibnall era I didn't hate. That and Eve of the Daleks. The episodes didn't feel like first drafts rushed into production with zero thought put into them
Never seen your channel before but this was randomly in my suggested, and I loved it! This video is so well made and entertaining, I’ll be sticking around for more!
I like it when people like the things I like. And I don't like it when people don't like what I like. I like Heaven Sent, and anyone who doesn't like it is bantha poodoo.
You are a funny guy and I do appreciate your take on Who I have been a fan since 1978 when I first started watching the 4th Doctor and have been a Who fan ever since.
I think that tank in 2016 felt like a serious death knoll for Dr Who. Steven Moffat was done (i dont blame him), Capaldi was doing the old 3 season wrap up. I think the biggest tragedy is is that these episodes at the end of series 9 with some of the best for awhile, like I just will never get past how the doctor spent billions of years in a torture prison killing himself over and over to punch through a diamond wall just for it to be mentioned in the next episode then really never again.
@@daiyahigashikata remember the part he falls on the ground in front of the whatever wall and clara has to actually talk to him to get him back up? he says it, that's always when he remembers everything, and he means the other times he repeated the maze. it's when he asks "why can't I just lose?", it's why he feels so defeated before clara talks to him. and it would probably get worse with every cycle. so yes, the guy who told river it was the first time he laughed in a long time, experienced the 4.5 billion years in the maze.
I actually really liked flux because it was such a refreshing deviation from the normal monster of the week format. Say what you want about the timeless child plotline but flux was a fantastic way to tell the story it wanted to tell. It was great how it threw you in and let you figure things out and slowly built up the people involved.
I remember this episode really disturbed me as a kid, particularly because I liked Clara a lot, mostly because when she was introduced she was a dalek and I love daleks lmaooo

How so? The presentation was literally the Master infodumping a captured Doctor.
@@irrevenant3 with a setup that is difficult to believe at best, so the master can just snoop in the archives and find it that easily? An execution of this sort of twist that is far better that I can think of to compare to would be (spoilers for The Boys season 3)
Homelander confirming his father is Soldier Boy, that worked because this was something orchestrated by the people at the head of Vought and Homelander was able to find this information by taking that authority.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 I immediately had to stop reading when I hit "spoiler for S3 the Boys" (and thank you for tagging that, BTW!).
I personally didn't have a problem with that aspect of it.
The Master has a ton of experience with the Matrix from past serials, and is uniquely obsessed with the Doctor. If anybody was going to find an obscure record in the Matrix and realise it referred to the Doctor, it would be him.
@@demon_hawkeye5269 the Master finding obscure information in the Matrix isn't at all out of character. In fact, you can basically sum the Master's entire character over the last 6 decades as a kind of spy version of Tyrion Lannister - he wears disguises and he knows things.
@@MichaelJohnson-kq7qg no, its not out of character for him to snoop but for that information to be accessible by anyone on the master's level of intelligence is logically hard to believe at best when it's one of the biggest, if not the biggest secret of the timelords
We should definitely of gotten a Potenaster Gang spin off
u have the vibe of "the only other queer audience member at a 7pm drag bingo (we live in a medium sized town and the straights believe this is a place they can have dinner and hang)" anyway i love ur vibe. we r walking past each other on the way to the bathroom but i have to say hi and compliment u and complain about the fact that i feel forced by Straight Behaviour to politely clap at this drag show and we are both having fun but also trapped in hell and we bond and get each others instagrams and say encouraging and lovely things on each others posts occasionally for the rest of our lives
also ur smile is lovely :)
btw another amazing video im rewatching this was my first of urs and now im going batshit very . effective
sorry not meaning to be weird, just rly avidly enjoying ur analyses its making my brain piss itself
I have to say I quite liked Flux, it was the only part of the Chibnall era I didn't hate. That and Eve of the Daleks. The episodes didn't feel like first drafts rushed into production with zero thought put into them
Great video, subbed 👍
Never seen your channel before but this was randomly in my suggested, and I loved it! This video is so well made and entertaining, I’ll be sticking around for more!
I like it when people like the things I like. And I don't like it when people don't like what I like. I like Heaven Sent, and anyone who doesn't like it is bantha poodoo.
me when they cancelled class 3:48
This video is fantastic and hilariously funny. defo subbing
You are a funny guy and I do appreciate your take on Who I have been a fan since 1978 when I first started watching the 4th Doctor and have been a Who fan ever since.
Thanks for a fantastic video!

I think that tank in 2016 felt like a serious death knoll for Dr Who. Steven Moffat was done (i dont blame him), Capaldi was doing the old 3 season wrap up. I think the biggest tragedy is is that these episodes at the end of series 9 with some of the best for awhile, like I just will never get past how the doctor spent billions of years in a torture prison killing himself over and over to punch through a diamond wall just for it to be mentioned in the next episode then really never again.
Death ‘knoll’? Is that a nasty hill in Yorkshire? You mean nell. Still death knoll is a lovely phrase. I’m using that from now on. Cheers!
@@diskgrinder it very likely could be! But yes i did mean nell, but knoll does sound better.
@@diskgrinderisn't it spelled knell? (Genuine question I've got no idea if nell is also a valid spelling)
@@daiyahigashikata remember the part he falls on the ground in front of the whatever wall and clara has to actually talk to him to get him back up?
he says it, that's always when he remembers everything, and he means the other times he repeated the maze. it's when he asks "why can't I just lose?", it's why he feels so defeated before clara talks to him. and it would probably get worse with every cycle.
so yes, the guy who told river it was the first time he laughed in a long time, experienced the 4.5 billion years in the maze.
I think you could also make the argument that Castellan Spandrell is the Doctor's companion in "The Deadly Assassin".
I actually really liked flux because it was such a refreshing deviation from the normal monster of the week format. Say what you want about the timeless child plotline but flux was a fantastic way to tell the story it wanted to tell. It was great how it threw you in and let you figure things out and slowly built up the people involved.
subscribing only because you think ace is the greatest companion. W opinion.
Hey, you're that tiktoker i've seen on that weird app. And you like my favourite episode of Doctor Who. Nice.
Hi Owen, love your channel, what's your favourite episode from each of the revival doctors?
Considering 12 quid in 1963 is about £209.45 now I’m not surprised at the effects quality. I’m more horrified at inflation
I'm late. But this is the funniest media criticism I've ever seen. Flawless. (my love for doctor who does bias me)
I remember this episode really disturbed me as a kid, particularly because I liked Clara a lot, mostly because when she was introduced she was a dalek and I love daleks lmaooo
