I met Sylvester McCoy at Collectamania once. I asked him about this skit, and about whether he was aware it was fake and just playing along or not. All he did was tap his nose and say that I'll never know.
I love how he calls "Tom" by his first name. Dr Who is such a community. It would be amazing to put all the actors in a room and see what interesting conversations you'd get out of it. Unfourtunatly, that'll never happen now. :( Time can be bloody annoying when it wants to be.
I would love to see an interview with all of the actors currently alive, and by all of them I mean all of them, Tom baker, peter Davison, Colin baker, Sylvester McCoy, Paul mcgann, Christopher eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Peter capaldi, Jodie whitaker and Ncuti gatwa
@@lexezlao You also have all the audio replacements & the 1st doctors stand in David Bradley. Also you could put in the fugitive doctors actor but I don't know her fate maybe make her someone else.
Baker - "I'm in a situation of extreme peril. I have had to leave my timestream, go forward to the future, join you in your time stream -- and have you help me." McCoy - "Have you been in the pub?" Baker - "For several millennia." McCoy - "So I believe." Hilarious stuff!
The best thing is, it's not staged. On the bonus material of the webcast/audio drama "Death comes to Time" there is an interview with Silvester McCoy and he references this very incident. He says that he really thought it was Tom^^
My first Doctor was McCoy. Oddly enough, it was through the gag reel from "Delta and the Bannerman" on a Star Trek Bloopers tape I bought at a convention.
This is great. The funny thing is I could actually believe that the real Tom Baker would get drunk in a pub and call Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor. = )
Oh My GOD! I died laughing at this!! "I have to go im watching football, the Universe Cup. It's Time Lords vs Jedi." The whole thing was histerical! XDD
That's a bit of alright! The special effects are astoundingly lifelike now a days, aren't they? Its still great to hear from two of my favorite Timelord scoundrel "almost husbands." My real husband was always teasing me about Tom Baker back then ,and about all of the other's since. I think that River had a pretty good system worked out! 😅
Actually Tom and Sylvester have been on Dr. Who panels together. You can find them on TH-cam or the BBC Dr. Who site. Knowing Tom he would of had know problem talking to Sylvester or anybody else. Looking at the way Tom interacts with the fans I think he just likes to find out about and talk to people. Hoping I meet both these gentlemen before we lose either one.
I haven't met Tom in person yet, but I did already meet Colin, Peter Davison, Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann in person. And also Dan Starkey, but he doesn't play a Doctor.
+timrob12 If you live anywhere in the U.K that's really ashame since Tom still doas appear at things in England and has appeared at cons thru out the U.K for years. Very warm, funny and friendly with all the fans. His appearances are on TH-cam.
Spam, hum... I need both of them to solve this paradox on my emails. Time Lords are spamming me!!! Daleks, Cybermen, Seeds of Doom, and all that creepy things.
the first time I heard Jon Culshaw do Tom Baker (he phoned some poor bloke at B&Q for a sonic screwdriver) I genuinely thought it was him. This is quite poor - it's funny because of The Great Slyvest
Time lords VS. Jedi...... That's tough.... If it were a young Obi-Wan or Qui Gon Jinn, I'd say Jedi but if it were Doctor no. 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 or 11 I'd go with Time lords. xx
I love how Sylvester McCoy just seems to think it's Tom Baker rather than Jon Culshaw. It's like he gets these calls from Tom Baker all the time.
"Are you alright?"
"... No."
Hahahaha classic timing
"Have you been at the pub". Sylvester is hilarious
Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred at conventions is one of the best double acts I've ever seen.
For several millennia
One wonders how often Sylvester gets these kind of calls.
I met Sylvester McCoy at Collectamania once. I asked him about this skit, and about whether he was aware it was fake and just playing along or not. All he did was tap his nose and say that I'll never know.
That's perfectly Doctor Who
Well he would know if it was the real McCoy.
@@purefoldnz3070 Well played
This is some McCoy level shit
He did the same when I asked him whether he was in day off the doctor so who.... Nose
Dose Sylvester McCoy think that Tom Baker regularly gets drunk and calls people up as the Doctor?
It can't be so rare an occurrence if he asked if he'd been in the pub xD
+Clayton Dills Given Tom's past behavior, it's not implausible (Tom is known for being a fan of the grape).
+Clayton Dills Well, Tom believes he IS the Doctor.
i like to think he turns into the Little Britain narrator
Maybe it's part of what he did when he regenerated into the Curator.
I love how he calls "Tom" by his first name. Dr Who is such a community. It would be amazing to put all the actors in a room and see what interesting conversations you'd get out of it. Unfourtunatly, that'll never happen now. :( Time can be bloody annoying when it wants to be.

"Oh yes, she was well fit" lmfao
Makes you wonder how many times Tom actually has called Sylvester and done something like this....
McCoy is so cool to just roll with it.
Being a comedian, I love to think Sylvester just goes with this kind of stuff.
Baker - "I'm in a situation of extreme peril. I have had to leave my timestream, go forward to the future, join you in your time stream -- and have you help me."
McCoy - "Have you been in the pub?"
Baker - "For several millennia."
McCoy - "So I believe."
Hilarious stuff!
'She was well fit' is something I never expected to hear in Tom Bakers voice
"They were TOTTYMONGOUS!!!" Hahaha!
😁
The best thing is, it's not staged. On the bonus material of the webcast/audio drama "Death comes to Time" there is an interview with Silvester McCoy and he references this very incident. He says that he really thought it was Tom^^
lol all the others seem to know instantly who it was but mccoy seems to have genuinely fallen for it haha, bless him
When he called Tom Baker, Tom seemed to instantly realise it was an impersonator. Smart fellow, that Tom.
"Tom is that you?" :D
I love how Sylvester is genuinely concerned.
Sylvester was a really good sport about it. That was a great Tom Baker impression!
Plot twist- Sylvester was also just an impressionist.
Time Lords vs Jedi?
Well I guess their Councils are equally useless.
Never thought i would hear the 4th doctor say "shes well fit"
The Doctor struggling to figure out a basic crossword? Man, no wonder he can't remember his own name.
Lovin’ the “SPAM’ crossword at 1:46 with the word ‘WANK’ underneath! 😂
Still hysterical after all these years.
Absolute gold!
My first Doctor was McCoy. Oddly enough, it was through the gag reel from "Delta and the Bannerman" on a Star Trek Bloopers tape I bought at a convention.
So I assume Tom Baker regularly calls Sylvester McCoy whilst drunk after being to the pub?
SPAM! Spam is the answer.
I has been searching da UNIVERZ for de answr.
😆
This is great. The funny thing is I could actually believe that the real Tom Baker would get drunk in a pub and call Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor. = )
It's now the perfect size for a smartphone both in bandwidth and on the screen.
*am now imagining drunken calls between past and future Doctors* Awh, I love this whole... just, this. You people are wonderful :)
I am your past regeneration! Not the one before you or the one before that, but the one before him!
Hahaha, greatest prank call in history!!! Love it!
"I'm watching a Football game; the Universe Cup: 'Timelords vs. Jedis' [2:25]" hahahahahaha!! I can't stop from laughing!!
What a great impression.
He must have thought to himself,
"*What the f* is going on."
I love that it seemed reasonable to him that Tom Baker would get drunk and call him pretending to be the doctor.
"She was well fit" Indeed, Doctor.
Tom, is that you? Tom, have been down to the Pub again?
Oh My GOD! I died laughing at this!! "I have to go im watching football, the Universe Cup. It's Time Lords vs Jedi." The whole thing was histerical! XDD
This is amazing! Nice work :)
That's a bit of alright! The special effects are astoundingly lifelike now a days, aren't they?
Its still great to hear from two of my favorite Timelord scoundrel "almost husbands."
My real husband was always teasing me about Tom Baker back then ,and about all of the other's since. I think that River had a pretty good system worked out! 😅
Sylvester is a really sweet fella
He got him! He actually got Sylvester! Did Sylvester ever figure out it was an impressionist?
I wonder if McCoy was actually playing along
Time Lords vs. Jedi. My money is on the Time Lords XD
😁👍
HA HA HA!!! This is great!!! Oh, poor Sylvester McCoy, he never understands that it's not Tom Baker!
- Er, are you alright?
- ... No
This is a classic! (Both sound and animation. Great job by you and all involved.)
Actually Tom and Sylvester have been on Dr. Who panels together. You can find them on TH-cam or the BBC Dr. Who site. Knowing Tom he would of had know problem talking to Sylvester or anybody else.

I live in Belgium.
Ugh why do I have to live in Minnesota USA?!
I met both of them many years ago. And Jon Pertwee as well. Had a meal at Sylvester McCoy's table at a convention.
Interesting the way Sylvester played this. He didn't so much play along as pretend he didn't know what way going on...
Tom Baker IS the real Doctor Who. He was the best.
Nah. Pat and Jon anyday. Colin more so on audio.
Spam, hum... I need both of them to solve this paradox on my emails. Time Lords are spamming me!!! Daleks, Cybermen, Seeds of Doom, and all that creepy things.
the part he says timelords vs jedi's cracks me up everytime
February 3rd 2021 Ah Memories
Given how well the Doctor plays football, I think the Time Lords will win this one easily.
Hilarious.
the first time I heard Jon Culshaw do Tom Baker (he phoned some poor bloke at B&Q for a sonic screwdriver) I genuinely thought it was him. This is quite poor - it's funny because of The Great Slyvest
@cecinid Glad you like it! Alas I did not do the Baker-calling-Baker one, but I'd love to see it if you ever find it again.
I never thought I'd say this but the Time Lords better win the football game.
😁👍
July 28th 2021 Ah memories
hahaha poor McCoy has no idea what's going on. However, I don't think Baker would've said well fit...
Oh god I fell off my chair.
😆
Still, it fooled Mcoy :3
lol "the universe cup, it's time lords vs. jedi" XDDD
Oh my god this is amazing
Spam! Well.. isn't that always the correct answer?
Did Sylvester know he was getting a call from Culshaw as the Fourth Doctor, before he called?
@markhorneyuk Nobody had seen Dead Ringers back when this was done, Dead Ringers was just on the radio at that point.
Brilliant!!!!!!😀😁😆👍👍👍👍👍👍
This never gets old hahaha
so freakin priceless !
Tom Baker is that guy who played the villain in The Golden Voyage of Sinbad
0:30 0:56
He said he traveled wth Leila and Romana. What about Sarah-Jane Smith?
@aquagrl63 are you saying that its not something colin baker would do?
Anyone a bit disturbed that McCoy assumed that this was something Baker would do?
Yeah I bet Tom Baker very well could have gotten drunk enough to actually pull something like this.
jfc McCoy is hilarious
I just died
Time Lords vs Jedis...... I'd pay good money to see that.
He didn't say anything about Sarah and Harry in his era :O It can't be the real Doctor! :P
Join with me Doctor! Eh, what in? LOL!!
McCoy is such a good sport! Looking forward to seeing him in The Hobbit.
@aquagrl63 yes tom baker had my mind elsewhere ¬_¬, yeah i really wouldn't be surprised if he had.
hahaha this is hilarious lol
Any chance of a remake of this in higher quality? I'm sure evryone would loove to see it!!!
@0n0a0m0e Do you mean Tom Baker? I just have the weird feeling that McCoy has had this experience with him before.
wait shouldn't the Seventh Doctor remember this phone call...??
Love It
Time lords VS. Jedi...... That's tough.... If it were a young Obi-Wan or Qui Gon Jinn, I'd say Jedi but if it were Doctor no. 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 or 11 I'd go with Time lords.
xx
Ah... this one is actually synched up!
@MsFluffy01 I'm quite sure I don't admit to knowing what you mean. ;-)
@robertaplantledzep "Tottymungous."
@totallyrandomguy111 It's the real McCoy.
Time Lords vs. Jedi...fascinating... :D
Spock's the referee I take it?
LMFAO
THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY!!!!!!!!!! XD
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
did mcoy figgur out it was a prank? or did he really think baker was drunk and calling him.
@RobTFirefly lol
