I find it extremely clever that this scene, when they start getting near the Tardis, it's so... off to the side. The camera doesn't focus on it or anything. It's just another object in the background until the Doctor walks up to it. Just how the Doctor said it blends in and nobody would notice it. Clever thing there.
This was the first episode of Dr. Who I had ever watched, and I wasn't too clued in on the Tardis and what it was. I didn't even realise the blue box was there until it disappeared. It really did blend in
@Matta Bish You're not missing anything, trust me. They're just another "TH-camr" in love with the smell of their own farts. I don't know why people idolise these nobodies.
Honestly, it sounds more like jumping out into the unknown. All these things, out there. Fantastic things. Terrifying things. And all it takes is letting go and being flung out. It could be fun. It could be dangerous. It isn't something you just do.
Peter Capaldi said 9’s speech about how he could feel the turn of the earth and the speed at which they were traveling through space orbiting the sun is what sold him on the series when it began again. I agree; when I heard that speech I saw the fourth doctor behind Christopher Eccleston‘s performance. That blank look of pure awe and wonder yet tempered with knowledge. Like knowing everything there is to know about a sunset, yet still astonished and entranced by its simplicity and beauty as you watch it.
Artisan1979 “I feel it...we’re falling through space, you and me...”this is when I fell in love with The Doctor...and when I watch rocket launches, THIS is all think about.
I love how it takes that idea, that awe and wonder of the universe which The Doctor feels, and somewhat twists it. He's scared of it now, focused on what would happen "if we let go" I think that really shows the damage the Time War did to him and the rest of New Who until 12 was him fixing that damage one step at a time to become who he was again.
The funny thing is, when you finally get to the point in real life when you look up at the stars and you swear YOU can feel it, you can feel that impossible feeling that you're just a speck stuck to the skin of a tiny little sphere hurtling away through an impossibly vast void, and for a moment in time you feel like you understand it just a little too well, _frighteningly_ well, you still can't get past that one nagging thought: "But why?" There's no rational reason for any of it to exist, no matter what religion nor discipline you follow in life. That defiant aspect of reality, that root of all mysteries. And that's the one bit of magic that can never break and fall apart.
Fun extra fact about our Doctor that is somewhat conencted to this topic is. In Big Bang episode. There was 3 separate entities that created the new Whoniverse. The Doctor; Pandorica and the exploding TARDIS. It so happens there is a another way to look at those 3. The father; child (daughter in this case) and the holy ghost monument. Yes I know most wont be able to spot it. All I point at the following and you can start see it. Doctor/father is quite obvious. So no need for anything deep indepth there. Pandorica and the TARDIS thou.... requires a small explination Ill begin with the TARDIS as it easier to see how the Pandorica could be of the same origin. The TARDIS got ascended after it had dragged Gallifrey thru the void into the new WHoniverse. How? Rassilon final plan for the end of time. (see pt 2 for details) as he had an device that would "burn" Gallifrey and ascend the Timelords at hte last moment of the Timewar. AKA as the same moment Gallifrey was frozen... I wont go into indepth what that means for the former Timelords more then they got split up into two opposing factions 1 ascended and 1 Quantum locked Schrödinger cat like state. The interessting part right now is the "ascention wave" as that was not frozen by time being frozen. But was "frozen" as it passed thru the void as ther is no time at all there = nothing to move in. But as soon the TARDIS exited the void the ascention wave rushed toward the TARDIS and the TARDIS.... drum roll Had to throw out JW to save her the Earth below from ascention. (Yes PC last speach took place right after the 50th special while dragging Gallifrey thru the void) = The last act of the TARDIS was to teleport away Gallifrey and the ascention wave, and at the same time/moment being killed. (one can partly see it happen in Twice upon a time) = The dead shell of the TARDIS crashed down on to the terraforming former Gallifrey... "While" (a ton of time later; think Millions if not Billions of years later) the ascended part took shape as the TARDIS JW have been traveling around in. = A Holy Ghost monument so to speak... Next the tricky "hard part" to spot. The virgin birthed child. And how our Doctor will become the new WHoniverse version of Virgin Mary. There is a chance we already seen this with the Doctors Daughter-Jenny, but I suspect there will be an another virgin birthed child and that JWs original arc was to do just that (this was changed thou; the original plan was to make CC & JWs entire run the ultimate Christmas special... Im skipping how series 11 is filled with Virgin Mary/Jesus connections, But here is a small taste; Three wise companions with 3 certain ethnic origins, Archangels, Man giving birth Abscent father issues, the Timeless child (the saviour child), having to walk away from those tha thave to die...& more + King James.... + Series 11 promoart thats basicly same as medieval ichonography of Virgin Mary... and more... So how about the Pandorica? River Song is actually the prime source for this and im talking about her death here. Remember how the TARDIS really is looking like the Pandorica. source that 2d monster episode in the subway with Clara when the TARDIS shrank) So back to River Song...Remember how River Songs mind in the impossible astronaut 2 parter was almost downloaded into that unfinished timemachine? Thing is, that device was the exact same device that killed River Song. (You can see the "Crown of thorns" in the Impossible astronaut 2 parter) AND this is a massive spoiler. River Songs mind completed that unfinsihed timemachine in the library....= a brand new type of Timemachine was made to take over the empty spot left by the ascended TARDIS Now here is key; the "Crown of thorns" Yes it could be an coincidence but its not, to much points toward it and it have been foreshadowed so hard. To many times for me to go in here now. But remember back to the Pandorica opens. it took place in about 110ADish..... and it is not beyond reasoning that the Pandorica was created in the first century around...33ADish about the same time as JW would have walked away from her kids death to let it happen as it already had as the Pandorica already had created the new Whoniverse... This would then have been a possible transition over to as JW "regen" for a broken heart into a young roman marble lover..... There are more to this but i need go to bed here....
@kennethnystrom593 If only this theory was true and expanded upon officially, it could have provided the next grand story arc like how Day of the Doctor shows us the sheer insanity of how Time Lords/Higher Order Species the Shadow Proclamation Mistress mentioned perceive existence in how the managed to both develop a WMD that was so beyond the scope of power and existence that it became a sentient AI and grew a conscience which managed to both give the one man willing to us it and damn his own soul to save all innocent life from the eternal suffering of thr Time War a chance to use it, and create a perceived reality which moulded him into a man who would continue that path and become known as the Harbinger of Death thanks to him being involved with some sort of cataclysm, only for those to understand that those apocalypses came at the final and last resort after all attempts at mitigating an even greater horror failed and his hand was forced to continue staining his soul in place of others, with those who he kept close helping to heal and cleanse him in the aftermath, a theory supported when 11 tells Amy and Rory of how little darkness they themselves possess and why they represent why The Doctor takes extreme care in who he invites to travel with him.
I love how charismatic and intense 9 was. When he went on those monologues about time and space he could suck you in to that head space. When he grabbed Rose's hand i was right there with him feeling that anxiety and insignificance. I can also feel the chemistry and connection between the doctor and Rose "Now forget me Rose Tyler" yeah but doctor the real question is will you forget her?
The 'Turn of the Earth' speech set the tone for the entire show for years to come imo ... It was SO powerful. From that moment onwards the new Doctors would alway give us plenty of fun, laughs and comedy ... but at any moment, they could become intense ... delivering epic lines of dialogue that would remind us how old and wise the Doctor was.
I forgot how good the dialogue was in this series. The writing got a bit more grandiose once Tennant came along, which was fine, it suited his more theatrical, flamboyant personality, but Eccleston *nailed* these kinds of exchanges. There was a *really* human, down to earth quality to these first few episodes, the London parts especially. The character dynamic between them is really believable, too. The Doctor is being standoffish due to him still hurting from the Time War and not wanting to get anyone else caught up in things any more. In the course of this conversation Rose impresses the Doctor in a lot of small ways with the things she asked questions about, and he slowly, carefully opened up in return. The whole conversation turns after he quietly asks her if she's okay. Such good writing
"...if we let go ...that's who I am." I always thought this speech was saying that the Doctor is the guy who can sense all the motion and complexity of the universe and understand what's going on when everyone else is disoriented, but it sounds like he's really saying that who he is is the chaos and terror that would happen if you chose to jump off of the Earth while it was spinning, because that's what you're doing when you go into his Tardis.
The shows producers didn't appreciate what a high caliber actor he is. He might say that he was not accustomed to comedic acting, but he was bloody well brilliant at it!
0:16 - 1:43 To think, if one of them had messed up on a line, no matter how close they were to the finish, they'd have to start all over again. That kind of shot would have been very difficult to pull off in the classic series.
Is a long take really that much of a surprise to you? A minute and a half is far from the most strenuous thing these actors have ever been put through.
Eccleston was the perfect choice to reintroduce a new audience to Doctor Who. Whilst it would have been nice to see him do another series it showed he could regenerate to a new audience. David Tennant is regarded as the best of the new era, but I don’t think it would have worked if he kicked the new era off. Eccleston to me is equally as good as Tennant and was the better choice to start the ball rolling again. Fantastic.
Tennant is an overrated bum who just had a LOT of episodes to appear in. So he just stuck in our minds by force Eccleston's episode quality is peak. Even the worst episode like the Slytheen episodes are amazing better than anything Chinball produced.
3:22 the choice to have him look so pained as he walks away was such an amazing idea. The veneer of his confident humour slips away and you ask yourself what is he upset about? Does he hate the burden of feeling the Earth spin? Is it the forced isolation he's putting himself in? You don't even need to know about the Time War yet and already you can sense the weight he's carrying while pretending everything is fine.
Guy introduces himself as not just the one who can comprehend, but can feel the Earth's rotational and solar orbit, then tells you to forget about him. What a monumental task that'd be eh Ngl tho, it's moments like that, pairing that kind of writing with Eccleston's performance, that's just one of the reasons I'll always love and miss 9. Was my first Doctor, and remains my favourite to date
Same. I'm at the end of the first season. It's my first watch. And I don't see how anyone else can be more favorite than him to me, even though I've heard everyone loves Tennant or Matt more.
Oh, my God, Rose was 19 here! When I watched this for the first time she seemed so old, now I'm the old one... 0.0 Pff, time... Wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff.
As a huge fan of the original run (doc 1-8), I had some skepticism about a renewal but a scene like this in ep1 really sets the hook deep. Christopher E did a magnificent job.
It’s a real life miracle that Russell T Davies has returned and I hope people enjoy and make the most of it. This clip is just one example of endless material that shows what a special gift he possesses, and only him, of the modern showrunners.
Oh my god, only just realised how incredible the doctor is in this scene "yes I can here I am this is me swanning off" "ten out of ten for observation" "you've gotta tell me what's going on...... no I don't"
'It's not a price war, HAHAHA-- they wanna overthrow the human race and destroy you...' Always felt the comedic timing of that line's delivery, as well the immediate tonal shift from jovial to profoundly serious of the line itself, didn't get enough credit.
The way he smiles after rose asks who he is gives me the impression that no one after the time war dared to talk or find him after they thought he killed gallifrey
That's it, that's the moment that truly convinced me to watch the show. This speech combined with the first introduction of the 9th Doctor's theme... Yeah, I always got chills with this part. Christopher Eccleston's was really the right choice.
This scene is what made me love the series. The loneliness of knowing. I started watching because my (ex) wife and her cousins said I looked a lot like 10. But this... this reaches my heart.
I can see that Block of flats from my front door. It was cool seeing them filming for each season. The pub where the TARDIS was is called The Master Gunner. If you ever wanted to visit. All still looks pretty much the same.
Eccleston was brilliant. He got me hooked on Dr. Who and I was disappointed to see him go. It took a while to warm up to Tennant, but I like him as well. I didn’t stay long enough to get to know Smith’s or Capaldi’s doctors but I may try to watch those seasons. Especially the ones with River Song. I loved her character too.
The speech is great, the chemistry is so entertaining, but what gets me about this scene more than anything is the look on Eccleston when he turns his back on Rose; all that comfort, charm?m, humour, disappears from his face and we see The Doctor as they truly are in that moment… hurt and, potentially, heartbroken. beautiful expression from Ecco
@@Lucy-ng7cw Very late reply, but Rose and Clara are linked. Clara's mum died in the Auton invasion in 2005 - the same invasion Rose met the Doctor. All but Donna were born in the late 80's too, among a few other things I'm sure.
obviously this is a rad establishing Doctor moment but also its lovely how Rose clicks with him right away, i love their banter. i misremembered until rewatching this recenyly how much she was game and giving him shit right back, right away
This is one of the reasons why I wish Eccleston could've stayed for a second series. While I like Tennant, I honestly preferred the chemistry between 9th and Rose than 10th and Rose. Never really cared much for the whole romance thing with 10th and Rose.
Am I the only one who noticed that the length of this segment is 3:48 and the licence plate as The Doctor walks away is 384? Someone or something is leaving herself messages scattered through space and time..."to lead myself back here" :)
Just think how long the Doctor had been without a companion at this point. Didn't have one at the end of his eighth life, probably didn't have one throughout the Time War, and now here he is with this young human female (just his type), and he's desperate not to have her get too interested in him. That look on his face as he walks away says it all.
“The entire world revolves around you”
“Sort of yeah”
“You’re full of it”
“Sort of yeah”
He's unbelievable
sort of yeah

Perception filters!
Are you an english teacher? Because you made this WAY deeper than it is
The episode already focused on the TARDIS after the Doctor destroyed Rose’s workplace, I don’t think it’s that deep.
only 9 can make earth orbiting the sun sound like everyone is going to die.
I dunno, have you never watched a Kurzgesagt video?
@Matta Bish You're not missing anything, trust me. They're just another "TH-camr" in love with the smell of their own farts. I don't know why people idolise these nobodies.
9 was the scariest Doctor.

In Big Bang episode.
There was 3 separate entities that created the new Whoniverse.

Eccleston was fantastic
I see what you did there.
No, he was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC
If only he stayed for two more series
Or 3 or 4...
He really was
I love how charismatic and intense 9 was. When he went on those monologues about time and space he could suck you in to that head space.

And, reminding us the Doctor truly is alien
This scene wasn’t even in the original script. It was added because the show was running short.
I forgot how good the dialogue was in this series. The writing got a bit more grandiose once Tennant came along, which was fine, it suited his more theatrical, flamboyant personality, but Eccleston *nailed* these kinds of exchanges.

The whole conversation turns after he quietly asks her if she's okay. Such good writing
2:14 that casual segue from laughing and joking to "they want to overthrow the human race and destroy you" always gets me
The fact that this whole scene is one shot makes it so much better
Except it's not all one shot? You've got two "oners" realising the script from 0:15 - 1:42 and 2:04 - 2:26.
I love Rose here... she's curious and so caring but in a really respectful and encouraging way.
"...if we let go ...that's who I am." I always thought this speech was saying that the Doctor is the guy who can sense all the motion and complexity of the universe and understand what's going on when everyone else is disoriented, but it sounds like he's really saying that who he is is the chaos and terror that would happen if you chose to jump off of the Earth while it was spinning, because that's what you're doing when you go into his Tardis.
I think the beauty of the scene is that both make perfect sense.
I think you're brilliant for observing this
Underrated doctor real shame Christopher ecclestone did not do another season
Yeah I wash just like I wish David Tenant stayed as the doctor until season 8. The order goes David Peter Chris
Properly rated.
@@TheLetterTen no, underrated.
The shows producers didn't appreciate what a high caliber actor he is. He might say that he was not accustomed to comedic acting, but he was bloody well brilliant at it!
It's crazy to think how that opening scene, the big one-take shot, was put there just to fill up time. It adds a lot to the character's relationship.
0:16 - 1:43
To think, if one of them had messed up on a line, no matter how close they were to the finish, they'd have to start all over again. That kind of shot would have been very difficult to pull off in the classic series.
Insane isn't it!? Only noticed this for the first time. You should watch the Sanchez apartment scene from 'Touch of Evi' though, 13 minutes haha.
Fun fact: That entire shot was written, filmed and edited really quickly once the whole thing was finished, cause the episode was running short.
This scene is very obviously dubbed in post production, so there is a fair chance one or more words were flundered during shooting. :)
How would it have been difficult walking out of a council estate while a camera follows?
Is a long take really that much of a surprise to you? A minute and a half is far from the most strenuous thing these actors have ever been put through.
"Yes I can, this is me, swanning off. See ya!"
One of my favourite 9 lines.
The early 2000's feel like such a dream to me. This show is one of the most honest windows to that time some how
My college days
My first flip mobile phone
Better days
God these two had so much chemistry

wouldn't have one without the other
Tennant is an overrated bum who just had a LOT of episodes to appear in. So he just stuck in our minds by force
Eccleston's episode quality is peak. Even the worst episode like the Slytheen episodes are amazing better than anything Chinball produced.
That is one amazing long take at the beginning! X
I wish they did more long takes on TV nowadays it makes it seem more realistic.
The newer Doctor Who is much too “cinematic”. I prefer this style. It’s cinematic but not over done.
@@Gamelover254 I know what you mean I like my TV shows to look like TV shows.
Yeah series 1-4 actually felt like a television show. Starting series 5 they got WAY too “clever” with the camera and effects and everything.
3:22 the choice to have him look so pained as he walks away was such an amazing idea. The veneer of his confident humour slips away and you ask yourself what is he upset about? Does he hate the burden of feeling the Earth spin? Is it the forced isolation he's putting himself in?
You don't even need to know about the Time War yet and already you can sense the weight he's carrying while pretending everything is fine.
His mood shift at the end showed just what kind of man this Doctor was. From the joking about to deadly serious in an instant.
Guy introduces himself as not just the one who can comprehend, but can feel the Earth's rotational and solar orbit, then tells you to forget about him. What a monumental task that'd be eh

9 is still my favourite, I remember watching this when it first aired. I like tennant but ecclestone was so good, shame he didn’t do more series.
Who could forget Doctor Who? The ninth Doctor was funny, self contained and really very good and love him I must
He's so intense, I love it.
My favourite scene "now forgot me Rose Tyler" and the oooooohhhh song is my favourite too, always gets stuck in my head
The dialog was so good and Eccleston so witty and clever and fast paced. He draws you right in and you can't let go just like Rose
The silly face he makes after he waves and says "hellooo" sold me on him and the new series. Shane he didn't do more.
It’s a real life miracle that Russell T Davies has returned and I hope people enjoy and make the most of it.
This clip is just one example of endless material that shows what a special gift he possesses, and only him, of the modern showrunners.

3:17 “now forget me, Rose Tyler”
But isn’t that Donna’s job
I panicked! At the chemical Bøy too soon
Anna Schiro ouchhh
Anna Schiro YoU tAkE tHaT bAcK
😭
Too soon
Ecclestone was my favourite but in a way him doing one season isn’t a bad thing, makes his season more valuable if you know what I mean.
I love the the long-take on this clip. There's about 30 seconds without a cut, from 0:15-0:43. It draws you in.
Rose: Who are you?
Doctor: Told you, the Doctor.
Rose: Yeah, but Doctor what?
Me: Roll credits!
Cinema sins school of TH-cam comments
*ding*
She should said doctor ''WHO''
Oh my god, only just realised how incredible the doctor is in this scene
"yes I can here I am this is me swanning off"
"ten out of ten for observation"
"you've gotta tell me what's going on...... no I don't"
'It's not a price war, HAHAHA-- they wanna overthrow the human race and destroy you...'
Always felt the comedic timing of that line's delivery, as well the immediate tonal shift from jovial to profoundly serious of the line itself, didn't get enough credit.
The music in this season was the best ever!
The episode that introduced me to Doctor Who 😍
The appearance of the tardis and no one really noticed it, really good, it blends in
Just think of how differently the Time War would have ended if Rose said "ok" to the Doctor saying to forget him...
No doubt that the Moment would take on a different form
The way he smiles after rose asks who he is gives me the impression that no one after the time war dared to talk or find him after they thought he killed gallifrey
Just after the War Doctor turned into 9, he met Rose.
I miss being a 10 year old and watching this series for the first time
That's it, that's the moment that truly convinced me to watch the show. This speech combined with the first introduction of the 9th Doctor's theme... Yeah, I always got chills with this part. Christopher Eccleston's was really the right choice.
Good god, when he lets go... I still get that creepy feeling like I'm leaning too far back in a chair, or the elevator starts going down.
This moment made me fall in love with this show 12 years ago.
Damn I first saw this when I was 7 years old. Now I’m 22 and I miss this era of the show so much
Wish he would have stayed longer he was completely awesome
This is one of the absolute best moments the series has ever had.
100%. As a huge fan of the original run, I had some skepticism but a scene like this in ep1 really sets the hook deep.
This scene is what made me love the series. The loneliness of knowing. I started watching because my (ex) wife and her cousins said I looked a lot like 10. But this... this reaches my heart.
Just realised that Rose quotes the Dr at 1:33 in Parting of the ways!
*Rule # 9* : Always Assume That The Person You're Listening to *Might* Know Something You *Don't* -
Because Who's Afraid of The....
Rose and Clara live in the same tower block!!
Pretty much every block of flats in London looks like that xD
It' lydesytep flats in Cardiff same filming location, lol
Anton cauadsh no these flats are the Brandon estate which is in south London
I can see that Block of flats from my front door. It was cool seeing them filming for each season. The pub where the TARDIS was is called The Master Gunner. If you ever wanted to visit. All still looks pretty much the same.
Mathew walentowicz Nope, only the front part of the flats is filmed there. Like outside the shops etc. However this is lydesytep flats
The good ol' days. I miss the days when Dr Who was THAT good.
People who skip this Doctor are crazy
“I mean you lot all you do is eat chips, go to bed and watch tele”
Yh that sums us English up pretty spot on lol
Americans too lol
This was the moment in "Rose" that made me first fall in love with the Doctor.
"Hold on a minute, you can't just go swaddling off!" " Yes I can, here I am, sawddlin' off. Seeya!" XD
Technically, he said "swannin, " as in 'swanning off'
Imagine putting Nine and Donna together. The amount of Sass would destroy the TARDIS
How bout Donna n capauldi doctir 😂
How could rose forget the most important man in her life ?
This was when Dr Who was great 👍
God I miss 9.
THIS SCENE WITH ECCLESTON IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!, the dj
Eccleston and tennant are so nostalgic.
This was the scene that won me over and made me a FAN at 9 years old.
Watching the latest season and god I miss when this show had quality dialogue with characters that actually seemed real
This doctor hold rose's hands more than tennant. Tennany usually put his hands in his pocket.
But 10th was officially her boyfriend :/
Eccleston was brilliant. He got me hooked on Dr. Who and I was disappointed to see him go. It took a while to warm up to Tennant, but I like him as well. I didn’t stay long enough to get to know Smith’s or Capaldi’s doctors but I may try to watch those seasons. Especially the ones with River Song. I loved her character too.
"you're on your own?"
The amazingly simple explanation of how truly alone The Doctor is. 😭
"Sort of, yeah!"
i really really miss this searis 1 era and feeling with 9th doc
I don’t know why but the poor quality of series 1-4 was somewhat amazing and just seem better.
Agreed - felt more real
The speech is great, the chemistry is so entertaining, but what gets me about this scene more than anything is the look on Eccleston when he turns his back on Rose; all that comfort, charm?m, humour, disappears from his face and we see The Doctor as they truly are in that moment… hurt and, potentially, heartbroken. beautiful expression from Ecco
My favorite line from the episode is when he taps Rose on the forward and says Nope! Bonehead by then
"Doctor What"
"Close enough"
When you realise this was all one big long take
I don't think anyone else notices, but the companions are all linked together
Danielle Lawman what do you mean?
@@Lucy-ng7cw Very late reply, but Rose and Clara are linked. Clara's mum died in the Auton invasion in 2005 - the same invasion Rose met the Doctor. All but Donna were born in the late 80's too, among a few other things I'm sure.
I only just noticed but you can hear the bad wolf theme at 3:28
..... Foreshadowing?
Rose is so cute
Drools
Fantastic
I LOVE ROSE
“It’s not a price war”
obviously this is a rad establishing Doctor moment but also its lovely how Rose clicks with him right away, i love their banter. i misremembered until rewatching this recenyly how much she was game and giving him shit right back, right away
0:36 And here we thought Bill was the first one to say it
Also what I'd naturally say. Doctor Who sounds good for the show, but doctor what is how I'd respond. Like "mister", "mr what?"
3:09 no way 9 didn’t know what he was doing here, that monologue was insane rizz 😂😂😂
This is one of the reasons why I wish Eccleston could've stayed for a second series. While I like Tennant, I honestly preferred the chemistry between 9th and Rose than 10th and Rose. Never really cared much for the whole romance thing with 10th and Rose.
1:17 so what you’re saying is that the whole world revolves around you?
Well the show is called doctor who, so yeah.
Honestly this Sean is breath taking
Am I the only one who noticed that the length of this segment is 3:48 and the licence plate as The Doctor walks away is 384? Someone or something is leaving herself messages scattered through space and time..."to lead myself back here" :)
Just think how long the Doctor had been without a companion at this point. Didn't have one at the end of his eighth life, probably didn't have one throughout the Time War, and now here he is with this young human female (just his type), and he's desperate not to have her get too interested in him. That look on his face as he walks away says it all.
The best Doctor
How could anyone forget him?
Eccleston’s Doctor was great and had fantastic chemistry with Rose. So did Tenant but it was Nine that sold me, Tenant just sealed the deal entirely.
He parked a hell of a long way away from her flat.
I like how people always ask "Who are you?" Or "Just the Doctor?"
Amazing scene 😃
I love the long take of this scene, but I wish the music didn’t go on too long.
