*Nearly 3,000 Subscribers.. WHAT! Thank You All!* WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE TARDIS INTERIOR? DON'T FORGET TO LIKE THIS VIDEO TO HELP IT OUT AGAINST THE YT ALGORITHM :) THANK YOU!!
My favourite console was the one introduced in The Five Doctors. My favourite console room was the first one used by Matt Smith. I despise in my soul the time rotor being attached to the ceiling of the room.
@@TardisTalks David tenant and rose’s it really had the organic feel I think a tardis should have because it’s not just a machine. But as a worthy shout out and also say the half a tardis the doctor put together quickly out of the tardis grave yard. Basically a rickety bike going through space but still had the heart of his own tardis
7/8's in the 1996 movie :) , It's got that lovely homey feeling to me, of just having a library beside the main console. Also dictor who, and that movie specifically is what inspired me to read the time machine by H.G.Wells
"Everything is canon" is an unbelievably based take. The shifting timeline of the Doctor Who universe provides the perfect environment for such an expansive storyline.
One of my favorite things about the show is how much time it has spent to give life to this ship. I'd say she's my 2nd favorite character in the show all around. My favorite interior has definitely gotta be 12th Doctor's.
The TARDIS is both the coolest spaceship and time machine there is. My personal favorite is the Edwardian control room, with the wood paneling and the shaving mirror right on the console. Something about it spoke to me.
I think what makes the 12th Doctor TARDIS so good is how it feels lived in The books, the chalk boards, it feels like The Doctor does things other than pilot
@jackmillen I agree, the size is nice and I like the jukebox (although I hope it gets used more) but I want things scattered around the console room so it feels like he lives there
@novawolf_gaming I'm hoping it becoming more uncoordinated and thrown together as the seasons progress. A desk or chairs under the console balcony would be great
Another win for this series in my opinion . You have a ship that is beyond her prime , but it stomps literally every fictional ship i could think about . Impossible to comprehend , has a sassy AI that could kill you by just swithching corridors around , could travel both space and time , it maintains its user and passengers by stopping them from aging , and a infinite source of adventures that no other ship could rival and it has a never ending source or energy and if you feel bored with you console , just spawn another and can see both past and future events that will happen or happened to prevent paradoxes . Its just the best fictional ship ever created no questions asked .
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I completely agree-the aesthetics of those control rooms are just stunning and really add to the show's magic. They also do scream alien spaceship rather than a room with circles on the walls haha!
I love that the TARDIS control room has gradually been getting bigger. I think it reflects that, as a living thing, she's still growing! She can learn new tricks, like opening with a snap, and have her own preferences she sticks to, like the police box shape and her characteristic sounds. I hope the trend continues, as well as keeping the ramps.
Your kinda sorta right. The first doctor's control room was already quite large, but move to Tom Bakers era. I've seen a pic of the thick interior doors open and were closer to the central counsel to close to be the original one. So that room shrunk in size. We didn't see a jump in size till the Doctor Who movie came out , the 8th doctor.
Considering a TARDIS internally experiences time differently, sees all of time, and is powered by an ultra dense star, these are the epitomy of a godlike being in all of who, far beyond anything comprehensible.
I can't remember whether I heard or read it that the outer box was only a portal and that the actual Tardis was in another dimension. Which made sense when in the early episodes you saw the interior doors were completely different to the exterior ones.
@@chrispayne523 i used to think this too but then we see the interior rock and take damage when the exterior takes damage. And there's a Tom Baker clip where he explains the interior is actually somehow contained in the box
The fourth doctor tried to explain it to leela. Further back, the very first episode in fact, Susan tries to explain to Ian and Barbara why the tardis was bigger on the inside.
Many rooms: What the narrator needs to understand is the ship’s interior is not in a 3D space, and is not a hotel of pre-existing rooms. Extra rooms are added or deleted in its pocket dimension as required, providing it has enough power to maintain their existence. If you ran through its corridors it would simply generate more corridor to run in and if you returned, the excess corridor would dematerialise to save power. Rooms that are always needed and/or are storage, are continuously maintained. It is true that the Tardis has access to a stupendous quantity of energy and thus can keep many huge interior volumes maintained, but the Doctor has commented that unused rooms often get deleted.
Season 14's remains my favourite , all the rooms and corridors had a uniformity in the 80's with Tegan actively getting lost and Dr Who using his unravelling scarf to prevent his loosing his way,
The best interior for me is the Mike Kelt & Matthew Thornton design used from 'The Five Doctors' until the Final 7th Doctor series. The console looked amazing and they finally managed to get the Time Rotor to move smoothly up & down
One of my favourite episodes is 'The Doctor's Wife', where we find out that it was the Tardis that stole the Doctor. Not sure if I missed it, but I think it is worth a mention that Tardis' come in 'Types' and the Doctor's is a Type 40 - a museum piece when he stole her. The Tardis also archives console rooms - even those that the current and future incarnations of the Doctor has yet to use.
The Doctors Wife was part of the original essay but I removed it feeling it was a bit repetitive 😊, there Is a picture of a Type 120 Tardis, but as mentioned this is based mostly around the doctor. I also spoke over the console room bank also 👌. Thank you for watching and proving information to the comment readers 😁
@@TardisTalks I don't know, been rewatching S11 and actually I find it pretty good. i've been binging DW with my gf since S5 and I actually enjoy 13s era quite a lot. It is just different.
Nice to see the Shell Room get a mention! I invented that in the novel The Suns of Caresh (which I wrote under the name Paul Saint) and which featured in the short story "The Little Things" which was published in Paul Cornell's anthology A Christmas Treasury. Later I was delighted to see that Minecraft players had picked up the idea.
It's wonderful to hear how your creativity has inspired others! The Shell Room is such a unique concept, and it's amazing to see it embraced in different mediums.
I’ve always wanted an episode set entirely within the tardis. Just the companion in the tardis stuck with no help from the doctor, something like the adventure games.
That would be very interesting. I'd kinda like to see it kinda playing out like the Star Trek Voyager episode Shattered. Like we know the Tardis travels around time and it stores random old components of itself in rooms, so whats stopping the Tardis from storing pockets of time within itself? And those pockets of time just happen to contain the older incarnations of the Doctor? Pretty much saying what if all versions of the Doctor exist within the same Tardis at the same time its just the with how massive the Tardis is they never really cross paths with each other?
In 2020, I had a friend build a garden shed in the shape of a TARDIS. I helped him, and it was so much fun. Unfortunately, the weatherproofing wasn't the best. It leaked, and some of the wood had started to rot. It will be a work in progress. The TV movie TARDIS interior is one of my favorites. It is very underappreciated, too. Thanks for this video.
Oh that would be an amazing shed, one way I have seen it be done is taking a real shed and building the tardis onto its entrance and hey presto.. its also bigger on the inside haha. Glad you enjoyed this video :)
The tardis is actually many tardis's in one. Just not all of them can actually 'travel' on their own. Sort of like a bunch of nesting dolls, except multiple dolls can exist in the next doll up. Sort of like a main pocket universe, which works like the "doors room" in the matrix movie, each "door" then accesses a smaller scale (but still massive) self contained module, eg, library, pool, guest room, bathroom, auxilery control (wood panel control panel, with a back door) , change room, sitting room etc. During the alternate universe plot with E space, they had to jettison some of the active rooms to cross over back to normal space - which were self contained modules, which is in theory why in later "inside the tradis" episodes, certain rooms like the changeroom/walk in wardrobe are missing as they were in the jettisoned modules, and the clothes are simply strewn about a utility space of walkways instead by that point, instead of the room that had the wardrobe. it is implied, there is a limited number of such specialisable modules active, and any extras need to be removed and placed in storage. The tardis also has a secondary pocket universe it uses as a data storage device, which is where it keeps backups of each of the modules and control rooms, although this is never really explored in detail in the plot - it is likely just another module integrated more closely to the heart of the tardis, and is essentially inaccessible, unless the tardis core specificlly creates a "shortcut" link to allow you to cross into it, which it has done on at least one occasion as part of its security protocol to draw threats away from the tardis occupants. In this way even with a limited number of active modules, so long as they are not occupied they can be removed and shuffled around to provide a seemless experience for the occupants. So although the "active modules" limit is likely something linear like 12, so long as they are not all occupied by a life form, you have in effect infinite rooms if a passenger wanted to visit each one at a time. This same function can also be used to lead a lost passenger back to the main control room, which is how someone in what is basially a pocket universe, never actually ends up lost forever under normal situations.. otherwise there would be multiple corpses littering rarely visited rooms! There is always at least 2 or 3 active "modules" including the control room, the corridor, and any room someone is actually inside. There are exceptions to this rule, there has been instances where the tardis core removes all links to the active control room to keep something out. There used to be a "tardis" mod for minecraft which was actually a pretty faithful simulation of this. It existed in its own pocket world, and could be upgraded to adapt and install additional modules, basically to infiinity, so long as you had the require resources in the upgrades chest. The control room would then allow you to move a "police box" around in any of the main game worlds using a system of buttons and levers.
I’ve only ever seen NewWho (so far) so I LOVED hearing all of the history and intricacies of my favorite spaceship in all of fiction :) My favorite interior is series 5-6! thank you for this amazing video!
Brilliant video thank you I learnt a lot 😁 As a wheelchair user I do love the current console room it gives me a childish hope that I could be in the TARDIS 😅 HOWEVER as a book lover I would pick 12's Tardis every time it is just a beautiful layout and visually appealing always for me so I am very glad that one won the poll 😂 (yeah I did vote for it 😂😂).
I am so glad you enjoyed the video, I put a lot of time and effort into this one as the Tardis is a very important character in the show but also because it fascinates me 😊 I think the extra effort shows in this one 😂, yeah I think 12s is possibly my favourite too and I'm so happy it won 😁.
We'd love to see a Tardis chamber big enough to hold (a) ship(s) like, say, all three Olympic-class ocean liners? This 'Cloud Chamber' also served as a 'quantum duplicator' allowing it's previous user, a collector of interesting buildings to make copies for themselves (using the Schrödinger Effect)... Also would be fun to take the mickey out of The Master by having every Tardis to have ever existed stop letting him/her/it pilot one.
That episode with the 4th is the only one I remember from childhood, that hooked me on Dr Who. I'm American, so it was among the only Dr Who that aired back then, and we had no real access to the show. Back then, especially in my rural region, cable wasn't even a thing yet, much less the Internet. Was so happy to have the show reboot into the 9th and going forward! 🥰
8:05 this scene is actually the Doctor using the forcefield generated by the extrapolator. It's unclear if he stopped using it after this or if it was somehow integrated into the tardis itself
When you mentioned the TARDIS material being really tough, and showed the clip of 9th doctor with the daleks shooting at it; You forgot to mention that at that moment he has extrapulator shielding recovered from the slitheen family. It has protection but not in that clip. Just pointing it out.
Ah yes the disguise system. In the infinitesimal Nano seconds before materializing on a landing spot, it scans the surrounding area and calculates the best disguise to fit the environment. Then it materializes as a Blue Police Box.
If the Tardis' were grown - how did the War Chief manage to get some SIDRATS off Gallifrey to help his alien friends build an army? And the War Lord said to the Doctor when he entered the TARDIS "you will build many more of these machines for us"..
SIDRATS are not TARDISes, Most other lifeforms do not comprihend how a tardis is made.. it looks like a machine so most would assume it is built and not grown.
The interior being outside our 3D space, and orthogonal to it, doesn’t travel as such, the doorway and external shape are what moves around in time and space. The Doctor is not inside the police “box”…the whole interior is in a different dimension at right angles to ours and right at the door is where the internal dimension lifts free of ours.
I do wish you'd tell us *where* your info comes from more consistently! Where did the "SIDRAT" history appear? Are you drawing from just the show, or from Big Finish, books, technical manuals, etc?
This is something I can definitely start to work on adding into the description in future videos, for this one it was a few different sources, the SIDRATS were established in the Classic show and are actually show canon.
The TARDIS is translating for us, so of course ALL her sisters are called TARDIS too - the moment she had to consider the expectations of her human passangers, she "got stuck" in her police-box form (because they would have been very confused, to exit a different thing, than they had entered). So the Doctor gets the same look, wherever he goes (what the TARDIS does in transporting River Song is another matter). The promise on the door to the telephone unit got downgraded from "responding to all calls" to "responding to urgent calls" - the "St. John's Ambulance" sign explains the chosen alias of the Doctor for passing as "human" - every time he looks at the sign, it screems JOHN at him (and Smith really is a common name)😁
tardis/tardi/tardises are a cool by product of budget constraints shaping the narrative. the fact that she is purely defensive too she has no weaponry suits the doctors style.
I love this video the tardis is so unique, and i wish we could see other veriants in expanded media. I know the doctors is very unique but there are so many unqiue versions in the expanded media that should be explored more. Compasstion be so intresting to see on screen or a similar humanoid tardis Love your content btw Side note i always felt Moya from farscape was loosly inspired by tardis concepts
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. Your insights about the TARDIS and Moya are fascinating-there's definitely a lot to explore in the Whoniverse!
Would the ecto containment unit in Ghostbusters, qualify as a TARDIS, since it's bigger on the inside? Gotta subscribe before time runs out. Take care, and all the best.
Nope, it's one of the "dogs have four legs" arguments. The ECU is Dimensionally Transendendantal like the TARDIS, but doesn't travel in space or time. Where Spengler got the instructions, components, knowledge and tools to build it on the other hand... 🤔
@@EthanKristopherHartley It's also my headcanon that, somehow, Egon got ahold of some ancient-dead-language book or another, that gives alot of technological details of something related to (proto?) Tardises.
Hey man, not trying to be an ass or anything, but in future videos could you provide subtitles? Your accent makes it a little difficult to understand some words for me (A dumb American) but I really like the videos and Doctor who lore like this in general. Again, not trying to be an asshole here or insult you in any way, just some genuine feedback
Journey to the center of the TARDIS is probably my favorite episode of Dr. who. I think the new white one should have more consoles or something around the outside of the “core”. It looks more like a spaceship than a time machine
7:55 while the tardis's plasmic shell being pretty much indestructible is true I must do my duty as a nerd here in pointing out that this scene was because of a device the doctor got from the slitheen that he used to make a forcefield
@@TardisTalks 💙 9 is often over shadowed as the middle between when classic was taken off the air and new who found its stride but its one of my favorite seasons!
I named my Server "The Turdis" because its full of Old Doctor Who Crap ... Tom's Tardis was my Favorite, in this modern age of buying stuff, I wish my Housing worked the same ..
I think, story wise, the TARDIS would be a great place to explore. We need an inmortal, probably a time Lord like the doctor and the master, who the doctor incidentally stumbles upon in his TARDIS and who is discovered to be using their longevity to explore the almost infinite interior of the TARDIS
Why do everyone think that The TARDIS console when seen in Inferno was not in the control room, that the surrounding area (which was a hut) is a interior of the old girl, in fact if The Wheel In Space episode one wasn't missing, we might have seen a view of the Police Box empty, like we unintentionally got in The Three Doctors, but in the Whoniverse the Doc took the Console out to do some repairs, in The Ambassadors of Death and Day of The Daleks
i kinda want the tardis to break one season and the season arc is the doctor trying to find out why it is broken and how to fix her, with the usual monsters and stuff in the episodes of course
I've never understood something. How come of all the Time Lords on Gallifrey, only the Doctor and Master have a TARDIS? All the other Time Lords don't care for one? That never made any sense. Also if the Time Lords have a non-interference policy then what do they do with the TARDISes in the first place? They should do a prequel and explain all this and how the Doctor even got the TARDIS.
I like the interior of the 12th doctor's TARDIS. The designs and color just fit the personality of the doctor/Peter Capaldi. In my opinion, Peter Capaldi is the best doctor who.
For starters, it isnt bigger on the inside. There is a field. Like a punched in beachball. The TARDIS sits in that hollow while more of it encompasses the field.
So much of this is NuWho babble or false canon from ephemera.🙄One of the many issues with NuWho is trying to explain every little thing! No mystery left in the main character or the TARDIS. Bigger on the inside for instance ... Saying it isn't with some quasi quantum physics explanation really kills the mystery of what made the original concept so good. And anthropomorphizing it was just more NuWho emotionalism. The 4th Doctor would say, "There, there old girl," and pat the console. It was left to the viewer's imagination was it literal or not or just humor
There was a suggestion that the TARDIS was sentient at multiple points in the original series. The full anthropomorphic personification is certainly further than I used to imagine. But the idea that it takes them to where they *need* to be rather than where they want for example shows some potential understanding.

I’ve only ever seen NewWho (so far) so I LOVED hearing all of the history and intricacies of my favorite spaceship in all of fiction :) My favorite interior is series 5-6! thank you for this amazing video!
Glad you enjoyed it! and thank you for watching!
Brilliant video thank you I learnt a lot 😁
As a wheelchair user I do love the current console room it gives me a childish hope that I could be in the TARDIS 😅
HOWEVER as a book lover I would pick 12's Tardis every time it is just a beautiful layout and visually appealing always for me so I am very glad that one won the poll 😂 (yeah I did vote for it 😂😂).
I am so glad you enjoyed the video, I put a lot of time and effort into this one as the Tardis is a very important character in the show but also because it fascinates me 😊 I think the extra effort shows in this one 😂, yeah I think 12s is possibly my favourite too and I'm so happy it won 😁.
We'd love to see a Tardis chamber big enough to hold (a) ship(s) like, say, all three Olympic-class ocean liners? This 'Cloud Chamber' also served as a 'quantum duplicator' allowing it's previous user, a collector of interesting buildings to make copies for themselves (using the Schrödinger Effect)...
Also would be fun to take the mickey out of The Master by having every Tardis to have ever existed stop letting him/her/it pilot one.
Great vid
Thank You:)
That episode with the 4th is the only one I remember from childhood, that hooked me on Dr Who.
I'm American, so it was among the only Dr Who that aired back then, and we had no real access to the show. Back then, especially in my rural region, cable wasn't even a thing yet, much less the Internet.
Was so happy to have the show reboot into the 9th and going forward! 🥰
8:05 this scene is actually the Doctor using the forcefield generated by the extrapolator. It's unclear if he stopped using it after this or if it was somehow integrated into the tardis itself
Thank you I am aware, one of my favourite scenes though and was fitting for the purpose of this part of the video 😊.
redecorated to taste
I think my favorite dashboard for the tardis is still from the 1996 movie.
Could we please get an in-depth discussion like this for the sonic screwdriver? Please? (-:
Time and Relative Jelly Babies in Space
When you mentioned the TARDIS material being really tough, and showed the clip of 9th doctor with the daleks shooting at it; You forgot to mention that at that moment he has extrapulator shielding recovered from the slitheen family. It has protection but not in that clip. Just pointing it out.
Ah yes the disguise system. In the infinitesimal Nano seconds before materializing on a landing spot, it scans the surrounding area and calculates the best disguise to fit the environment. Then it materializes as a Blue Police Box.
😂
If the Tardis' were grown - how did the War Chief manage to get some SIDRATS off Gallifrey to help his alien friends build an army? And the War Lord said to the Doctor when he entered the TARDIS "you will build many more of these machines for us"..
SIDRATS are not TARDISes, Most other lifeforms do not comprihend how a tardis is made.. it looks like a machine so most would assume it is built and not grown.
Best Tardis Episode will forever be Edge of Distruction, not because it's good by modern standards, but because it's perfectly bizzare
My favorite 1st Doctor story.
6:05 wait a minute
18:15 I don't believe there's any such episode called "Sutekh's Entanglement". Is that a Big Finish story or something?
Thankyou ... more please
Working on it :P
The interior being outside our 3D space, and orthogonal to it, doesn’t travel as such, the doorway and external shape are what moves around in time and space. The Doctor is not inside the police “box”…the whole interior is in a different dimension at right angles to ours and right at the door is where the internal dimension lifts free of ours.
I do wish you'd tell us *where* your info comes from more consistently! Where did the "SIDRAT" history appear? Are you drawing from just the show, or from Big Finish, books, technical manuals, etc?
This is something I can definitely start to work on adding into the description in future videos, for this one it was a few different sources, the SIDRATS were established in the Classic show and are actually show canon.
@@TardisTalks Yes, I just got to the first source four minutes in. Thank you for including what you did!
I really enjoyed this. I used to work on the show too.
Glad you enjoyed it, oh that must have been pretty cool working on the show 👌😊
1. The chameleon circuit on the Master’s TARDIS worked. 😊
2. Too bad the Doctor had to eject (25%?) of its interior space that one time… 😅
There's rumours of an episode in series 15 set mainly in the tardis
The TARDIS is translating for us, so of course ALL her sisters are called TARDIS too - the moment she had to consider the expectations of her human passangers, she "got stuck" in her police-box form (because they would have been very confused, to exit a different thing, than they had entered). So the Doctor gets the same look, wherever he goes (what the TARDIS does in transporting River Song is another matter). The promise on the door to the telephone unit got downgraded from "responding to all calls" to "responding to urgent calls" - the "St. John's Ambulance" sign explains the chosen alias of the Doctor for passing as "human" - every time he looks at the sign, it screems JOHN at him (and Smith really is a common name)😁
I would love to see a one shot stand alone DW episode that explores the very first TARDIS.
I mean I guess its kinda still possible... as long as its written well :)
and yet titanic breached tardis
Wibbly Wobbily Timey Whimey...
@TardisTalks makes you think if tardis is sentient... did it had a beef with space titanic ?🤔
I mean if you were able to manipulate time and space. Wouldnt you fit an entire world into a small space
tardis/tardi/tardises are a cool by product of budget constraints shaping the narrative. the fact that she is purely defensive too she has no weaponry suits the doctors style.
I love this video the tardis is so unique, and i wish we could see other veriants in expanded media. I know the doctors is very unique but there are so many unqiue versions in the expanded media that should be explored more.
Compasstion be so intresting to see on screen or a similar humanoid tardis
Love your content btw
Side note i always felt Moya from farscape was loosly inspired by tardis concepts
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. Your insights about the TARDIS and Moya are fascinating-there's definitely a lot to explore in the Whoniverse!
Eccleston/tennant tardis on top 💪🏽💪🏽
The column in the center is the time column, used to indicate flight.
Would the ecto containment unit in Ghostbusters, qualify as a TARDIS, since it's bigger on the inside?
Gotta subscribe before time runs out.
Take care, and all the best.
Nope, it's one of the "dogs have four legs" arguments. The ECU is Dimensionally Transendendantal like the TARDIS, but doesn't travel in space or time.
Where Spengler got the instructions, components, knowledge and tools to build it on the other hand... 🤔
@@EthanKristopherHartley It's also my headcanon that, somehow, Egon got ahold of some ancient-dead-language book or another, that gives alot of technological details of something related to (proto?) Tardises.
You show a row of TARDIS in different shades of blue. I don't remember seeing these. The standard international colour of the TARDIS is Pantone 2955C.
They’ve all been in the show. That’s only the colour for one version of the box, not all of them.
Hey man, not trying to be an ass or anything, but in future videos could you provide subtitles? Your accent makes it a little difficult to understand some words for me (A dumb American) but I really like the videos and Doctor who lore like this in general. Again, not trying to be an asshole here or insult you in any way, just some genuine feedback
I certainly can start working them in 😊.
@@TardisTalks thank you so much!
Journey to the center of the TARDIS is probably my favorite episode of Dr. who. I think the new white one should have more consoles or something around the outside of the “core”.
It looks more like a spaceship than a time machine
7:55 while the tardis's plasmic shell being pretty much indestructible is true
I must do my duty as a nerd here in pointing out that this scene was because of a device the doctor got from the slitheen that he used to make a forcefield
I am fully aware of this but thank you for ensuring others are:). One of my favourite scenes from this episode and it kind of worked for the video :P
@@TardisTalks 💙 9 is often over shadowed as the middle between when classic was taken off the air and new who found its stride but its one of my favorite seasons!
My personal favourite TARDIS Interiors and Exteriors are the Matt Smith and the Peter Capaldi designs.
I just wanted to say……HELLO
What is S.I.D.R.A.T. if its TARDIS backwards
Who is the TARDIS matrix I'm going to go with River Song!
did you know that the time rotor is a mistake, not was never met to refer to the central column
I remembered the tardis having a room with stars inside
I named my Server "The Turdis" because its full of Old Doctor Who Crap ... Tom's Tardis was my Favorite, in this modern age of buying stuff, I wish my Housing worked the same ..
I think, story wise, the TARDIS would be a great place to explore. We need an inmortal, probably a time Lord like the doctor and the master, who the doctor incidentally stumbles upon in his TARDIS and who is discovered to be using their longevity to explore the almost infinite interior of the TARDIS
TS 1:12
what TARDIS IS THE WHITE ONE!?!!
I've never seen that... comic or original series.. I don't spend much time on OG stuff lol
That’s from _The War Games_ (1969).
Why do everyone think that The TARDIS console when seen in Inferno was not in the control room, that the surrounding area (which was a hut) is a interior of the old girl, in fact if The Wheel In Space episode one wasn't missing, we might have seen a view of the Police Box empty, like we unintentionally got in The Three Doctors, but in the Whoniverse the Doc took the Console out to do some repairs, in The Ambassadors of Death and Day of The Daleks
i kinda want the tardis to break one season and the season arc is the doctor trying to find out why it is broken and how to fix her, with the usual monsters and stuff in the episodes of course
That was most of the Jon Pertwee era.
But why didn't Amy and Rory like the bunk beds in their bedroom? Bunk beds are cool!
😆😆😆
There is one TARDIS room that only showed once. That room is for the Doctor's regeneration and then ejected.
Compassion is Type-102 btw :)
The latest white plastic look is like cheep 80 sf like buck Rogers
I've never understood something. How come of all the Time Lords on Gallifrey, only the Doctor and Master have a TARDIS? All the other Time Lords don't care for one? That never made any sense. Also if the Time Lords have a non-interference policy then what do they do with the TARDISes in the first place? They should do a prequel and explain all this and how the Doctor even got the TARDIS.
Poor tardis
I like the interior of the 12th doctor's TARDIS. The designs and color just fit the personality of the doctor/Peter Capaldi. In my opinion, Peter Capaldi is the best doctor who.
is it tardiss or tardisi
I’m having a hard time understanding with that accent. But very complete and informative nonetheless!
Never heard a Scottish person before?
I fucking hate the 60th Tardis
For starters, it isnt bigger on the inside. There is a field. Like a punched in beachball. The TARDIS sits in that hollow while more of it encompasses the field.
Nope. I don't do this rubbish anymore. DW is dead to me now.
Why's that?
And yet, here you are. Dumping on others' enjoyment...
Then why are you on this video and commenting?
Okay aperture science
@@Nukacola_addict It probably has something to do with the Disney+ series.
So much of this is NuWho babble or false canon from ephemera.🙄One of the many issues with NuWho is trying to explain every little thing! No mystery left in the main character or the TARDIS. Bigger on the inside for instance
... Saying it isn't with some quasi quantum physics explanation really kills the mystery of what made the original concept so good. And anthropomorphizing it was just more NuWho emotionalism. The 4th Doctor would say, "There, there old girl," and pat the console. It was left to the viewer's imagination was it literal or not or just humor
There was a suggestion that the TARDIS was sentient at multiple points in the original series. The full anthropomorphic personification is certainly further than I used to imagine. But the idea that it takes them to where they *need* to be rather than where they want for example shows some potential understanding.
Nothing you’ve said here is even remotely truthful or intelligent.
Have I been banned again?
