One of my favorite scenes from this was her getting called into Sydney's office thinking she's going to get yelled at, only for him to tell her a million people watched her "bug-eyed monsters"(the Daleks), and he's like "So what the hell do I know.."
Jessica Raine was great in An Adventure in Space and Time. I'm sure Verity Lambert would have been proud of her and also that Doctor Who is still running now. May she rest in peace.
This movie really shows how Doctor Who could have gone one way or the other and its history really seems delicate. Verity Lambert could have got fired after the second story, the Daleks would never have been on TV, the show couldn't have existed at all or lasted a season.
I love how this film doesn't dwell on things, it acknowledges sexism, but then it moves on to the next topic, it really helps from the pacing and makes this film feel so much shorter than it really is.
I think it fucks with the tone, like it doesn't feel like a real conversation, like "oh where's the totally male producer for the show?" then next scene "Ah we are two adults having a serious discussion and we admire each other". It's like they're shocked that a woman is working there and then next minute it may as well be two blokes. It's like that Twice Upon a Time episode where the first Doctor kept saying stereotypically old fashioned things about women when we know he never said that in the show and they're only giving him those lines "because he's old so he must hate women".
@@Snagprophet Apart from the 'made of glass' thing, everything else the First Doctor said was in character. The 'made of glass' thing was imo either an attempt to schmooze with the soldier, or he was starting to catch on that Bill was literally made of glass and wanted to test the waters.
@@Snagprophet The conversations are with two different guys, man. Rex is the only one characterised as a sexist in that first scene. The friendly guy calls Rex out on being rude and smiles when Verity asserts herself. Him trying to act egalitarian towards her in the next scene follows perfectly.
@@carrot708 *_Apart from the 'made of glass' thing, everything else the First Doctor said was in character._* Absolutely not. In one scene _(Twice Upon A Time),_ the First Doctor remarks about the untidiness of Capaldi's TARDIS by saying, _"You can tell Polly isn't around,"_ implying that Polly was a "cleaning lady" during her time as a companion. *_NO SCENE_* in the original series ever remotely reflected this, nor did Hartnell's Doctor ever make any sexist remark about ANY female companion. So no, the First Doctor was written in TUAT to be overtly sexist because that's what NuWho wants young fans to THINK the original series was like. Anyone who has watched the Hartnell era knows he was nothing like how TUAT depicts him. Modern DW doesn't want young fans exploring the original series; in fact, they go to great lengths to avoid promoting it. Like the scene here with Verity, this is just modern DW exaggerating sexism in the 60s and conveying to younger audiences, _"Every man in the 60s was a sexist pig."_ It's not only historically false, but is a severe injustice to Hartnell. I have met "NuWho" fans in comment sections who literally refuse to watch the original 26 seasons because modern shit like this has taught them "it was overtly sexist." Nothing more than NuWho skewing the facts so they can then pat themselves on the back and say, "See how non-sexist we are?"
I loved this! I watched it many multiple times on the 50th and I've owned it on DvD for a good few months. So much respect for Verity Lambert and Waris Hussein considering the fact they were a woman and an Indian as the production team for a major part of daytime television in the 50s. Dealing with discrimination must have been challenging to say the least.
Fun Fact: Rex Tucker briefly considers Hugh David to play The Doctor in this clip. During the Patrick Troughton era, Hugh David did work on Doctor Who; as a director. He directed the stories 'The Highlanders' and 'Fury from the Deep'. Both of which are completely missing from the BBC Archives.
@@sglenny001 I hope they find a way to make the movies canon in the WHOniverse, preferably as actual films made about him rather than that Timeless Child shite.

_Bella.1640 _ the Doctor grew progressively younger as the series went on, but I think it made sense to start him off old. Him getting younger sort of represents his growing and rather childlike wonder for the universe. It’s why he got older when he became the Warrior, and younger when he returned to the ways of the Doctor
***** Actually there were a lot of historical inaccuracies in this. For example, the Daleks didn't say "exterminate" in their first story. There were some others as well, although I can't really remember what they were. It was mostly accurate, though.
A picture of Peter Cushing is on the desk! Nice touch.
Joshua Lowe yeah, and in the first episode of this, you can see William Russell (Who plays Ian Chesterton).
Well it’s likely accurate to the actual people they were considering at the time.
@@ParzivalTheThird Cushing played Doctor Who in two movies loosely based on William Hartnell Dalek stories.
"Not old enough for Doctor Who."
Matt Smith: Hold my fez.
🤦🏼♂️
Peter Davison (youngest before Mr Smith): Hold my celery.

I would quite happily have watched a series of Jessica Raine as Verity working her way through the 60s and 70s, she was so perfect in the role.

Bad idea to use The Silence to tell us to subscribe...
We might ... forget :P
We forget them, not what they say...*SUBCONSCIOUS*
We will forget we subscribed and we would want to do it again, and again, and again...

You censored the P-word in the title but forgot to censor it in the video and now my brain has been corrupted. I shall sue the BBC.

They only censored it in the title because TH-cam detects it far easier than a sound clip in a video

Have I got some news for you.

Hugh David was also actually considered for the first doctor
I know. That's what they're talking about in this scene.
Verity Lambert was well cast.
you can see a picture of Peter Cushing on the table from the 1960s Doctor Who movies
And they wanted him for the second Doctor but he turned it down which he later regretted doing.

The person on the other end of Hartnell’s phone sounds like a classic cyberman
OMG yeh!
1:34 why is the door handle so far up the door? is that an english thing or just an old english thing?
it's a BBC thing.

I still haven't seen this episode of Doctor who. If I knew she is in it, I'd watch it as soon as it came out.
Not a episode more a tv drama based on the creation
Near the start it said that one of the actors weren't old enough to play the doctor......... Look at Matt Smith!! That hottie though........

@@seandabest6353 is a nice idea even if that changes with Peter Capaldi
Wait is the actress that played Verity the same actress that played the Ghost hunter’s assistant (forgot her name) in Hide?
Yep. Jessica Raine is the actress' name.
This is so cool!
I need this on netflix xD
It's on Hulu!
More clips from, an adventure in time and space would be amazing.

And the BBC are still using the same cameras lol

You know, I keep meaning to subscribe bit then I just forget all the time!
That's not how the silence works.
Micky Ansell yes it is, you look away to subscribe and then you forget because you looked away.
no, you would Subscribe as what the,silence tell you to do stays in your subconscious.

Wait, why didn't they have an outro?
Love this
Very good clip
I think I might re-watch this. : D
guys he said piss
👏
yay
what's this about
I like the ending !!!!! 👽👽👽
I'm confused on what this is...
It's from the documentary 'An Adventure In Space and Time', which is about how Doctor Who came to be :3
ABXY_Panda Is this worth watching? and were can i watch it?
***** Very much worth watching.
***** They released it on DVD so you should be able to get it online quite cheap now.
What is this?
It's a drama about the origins of Doctor Who. It's really excellent
what is this? Like a short film or something? I'm confused.
It's a TV movie about the origins of the show. It was on the night before Day of The Doctor. I'd really recommend it :)
Russell Tietjen ahh ok thanks
Ah I see it's The One Misogynist At The BBC. Glad he doesn't work there any more
They really are running out of ideas...
Oliver James what?
...this was made 7 years ago and uploaded to TH-cam 5 years ago...
BBC Worldwide should release this full entire TV drama on TH-cam Red.
