    A nice detail that you may not have noticed: little Amelia had a Scottish accent (she mentions moving from Scotland to England), then when we're introduced to Amy and she doesn't want the doctor to know who she is, she puts on an English accent. When she shouts 'WHY DID YOU SAY 5 MINUTES?', She goes back into her Scottish accent

    It’s a miracle that this episode is so great. Think of everything it has to do:
    New Doctor
    New companion
    New TARDIS
    No returning actors
    New showrunner
    And following the most popular Doctor’s emotional send off
    And they NAILED IT. Smith is gangbusters from the start, he and Gillian have fantastic chemistry, the score is lovely, the cinematography is downright magical to behold, and nothing feels off. It’s insane how much pressure they had to be feeling, and it turned out brilliantly.

      Like, they literally hadn't had to do that combination of obstacles since "Spearhead in Space" in 1970... okay yeah technically there was a "returning showrunner," but that was Derrick Sherwin who was showrunner for ONLY two stories ("The War Games" and "Spearhead from Space") to handle the hand-off from Troughton to Pertwee, before immediately handing the reigns over to Barry Letts.

    Y'know, you cut it from this video, but one of 11's most defining moments came right in the first few minutes of this episodes, and lots of people seem to miss the significance;
    _Amelia: I’m not scared._
    _The Doctor: ‘Course you’re not! You’re not afraid of anything. Box falls out of the sky, man falls out of the box, man eats fish custard. And look at you, just sitting there. So you know what I think._
    _Amelia: What?_
    _The Doctor: Must be a hell of a scary crack in your wall._
    That let us know right from the start that there would be a method to his madness. I was really impressed with that scene when I first saw it.

    Probably my favorite trivia point here: Young Amelia is played by Caitlin Blackwood. Older Amy is played by Karen Gillan, her cousin. Apparently they'd never met before this season was filmed.
    Another connection like that happened between Lewis Capaldi and Peter Capaldi, best known as ... Caecilius in the Pompeii episode (well to YOU anyway, assuming you're watching these in order and haven't been spoiled to his later role). They're second cousins, once removed. So naturally Peter was in a video for Lewis's song this year.

    Great reaction. I think your reaction was typical of most Whovians when there is a new doctor. There tends to be a "wait and see" attitude in the beginning, because of fondness for the previous doctor. It was fun to see you warm up to him as the episode progressed - I have watched other reactions to this episode and they were quite similar.

    Smith became my 2nd favourite Doctor from the very first episode.
    After Tennant's regeneration, I wasn't happy to see Smith take over and his cameo didn't impress me at all.
    However, from the first minute of the Eleventh Hour episode to the last minute, I had a complete 180 on Smith.
    I recognise that nobody will ever replace Tennant as my favourite Docto, but Smith's version is unique, different and a joy to watch.

      For me, the best Doctor just left and the next best won't be around until Series 8. And I think I much prefer the opener in S8. It's just amazing. (Edit: Well, next best in New Who. I still have a huge spot in my heart for Eight, thanks to the audios. I think Moffat did him dirty.)

    Great reaction! Your comment about not going to deep into the new doctor's character, is something that the writers do intentionally. They write the first episode or two of a new doctor in a sort of generic way, and they watch what the new actor does with the new doctor's personality - this allows the actor to personalize the doctor and then the writers pick up on his cues and write more episodes that dive deeper into his personality based on the actor's interpretation of the doctor.

    Back at the time where they were in seasons 1-4 I was an occasional viewer of the show just because it reminded me of my childhood.
    When I watched this episode's line "I'm The Doctor. Basically, run!" I was hooked! By the end of Matt Smith's run, I wouldn't miss an episode.
    If you enjoy this type of writing with multi-episode story arcs, you are going to love Moffat's time as show runner.

Steven Moffat is the guy that wrote the 9th doctors 2 part the doctor dances and the empty child he also wrote blink for 10th doctor the weeping angles one and I am sure he has written many other episodes I just can't think of any more from 10 AND 9 era.

    Baker was the deranged Shakespearean Doctor.
    Eccleston was the best PTSD Doctor.
    Tennant was the best dramatic/angsty Doctor.
    Matt Smith was the best ancient old man in a youngster's body (and a bit of a nutter) Doctor.
    Cappaldi was the best all-around actor who was completely wasted Doctor.
    You're up to Smith. He's different, but I'm sure you'll find him just as enjoyable. Different ... but the same.
