I loved how David switch to his Doctor voice and said "My TARDIS. Mine. Say sorry." I also like how John looked sheepish and sort of curtsied to David. That was the best bit.
I'm watching this because Russell Davies describes the writing of this scene in his book "The Writer's Tale: The Final Chapter". For those who don't have the book here are the relevant passages: Russell: Do you know what I've got to do now? Write a Tonight's the Night sketch. It's Johnny B's new Saturday night variety show. They're running a Doctor Who Alien Talent Search competition. The winner - basically, whoever has cobbled together the best alien costume - gets to appear in a specially written scene, in the TARDIS, with the Doctor and Captain Jack. Yes, my final work for the Tenth Doctor on TV will be writing a scene for David, John Barrowman, and a man called Tim, who has dressed himself as the alien Sao-Til using blue breast-enhancers and a wine cooler on his hand. This is how it ends. Interviewer (Ben Cook): Best. Monster. Ever! Really?! Oh, Russell. Prepare for brain death. Can’t you refuse to do it? Russell: Too late: They’ve advertised it as a ‘script by Russell T Davies’, and they’re shooting it on Monday. I have written two lines. I can’t bear this. This script is killing me. Russell: Here we go. My final Doctor Who script. A masterpiece. MASTERPIECE! I am bleeding from the fingers. (I’m getting paid for this. It’s going straight to charity. I’m not touching it.) They really, really want David as the Doctor… but I just couldn’t. I literally could not type it. Let them moan if they want. I ain’t doing it.
@@eclecticspaghetti I think, if we heard him in the interview, we would also hear a kind of desperate amusement in his voice. Because what I have seen of Davies, he seems to enjoy the madness of the film industry, and often acknowledges stuff as "not what I would do, but I see why it has to be done in the big picture", and goes for it.
With David himself being a fanboy of Doctor Who, it's hard not to imagine this being similar to kids being protective of their own toys and not sharing
best episode I watched after 10th doctor regenerated into the guy who has no eye brows. I wish they made Tim Ingham a doctor instead of whatever random people they come up with :DDD
Bro really called the talented & beloved actor Matt Smith as... "the guy who has no eye brows" like come on.. You aren't a DW fan then if you only watched for the actor. And 11 had great scripts.
@@Comicbroe405 I watched doctor who starting from 1st doctor. after they decided to continue DW I was like "they'll probably suck at it" but they managed to make it way better than original series, it was the best in 10th doctor. but after they fired russel t davies it gone bad due to steven moffat, he even ruined sherlock holmes. and all the new doctor choices and their whole episodes and themes just suck hard. 11 doctor is even the worst than woman doctor lmao

Love it when david Tennant says"john.. My tardis.."
Can we just take a moment to imagine John Barrowman playing the Doctor...just...imagine.
But then he would never regenerate...
But just...imagine.
The face of Bo?
NEVER!
Better doctor than ncuti
The way he says "Stoke-on-Trent" lmao
This is so wholesome
Something tells me John Barrowman wrote this himself, instead of Russell T. Davies.
Nope. Genuinely was a rather unhappy Russell T Davies. See the comment above.
timrob12 something tells me that John wrote the Torchwood episode Day One
I don’t think so
@@Personal-Day-5562 What makes you think that?
timrob12 have you watched that episode

That’s a bit sad, honestly. I thought this was really charming, it’s a shame knowing Davies hated writing it.

So that's what happens when Rorschach and Dr. Manhattan have a baby.

John says "Alpha Centauri", which is the name of a species from Classic Who. Props to you, Mr. Barrowman.
It's also like... a real life star system though
and mentioned in good omens
Such dorks. 💖
I remember this competition on telly. As soon as I saw the blue guy, I knew he'd be the winner. Simple, yet effective.
JB should be in the 50th Anniversary!
This is very sweet :)
This is awesome!!! Tell me why I didn't watched that scene when I'm crying of David Tennant leaving the show?
That awkward moment when you think your idol is going to call you "wonderful" but instead calls you "one happy man".
never meet your heros
Tim and John were at Lincoln two days ago.
brought tears to my eyes!
"Bang bang!" LMAO
06:00 - Barrowman shows how good it was in his not-so inner voice
1:25 WREAK HAMMOCK
never let him forget this y'all.
Is it just me or doers he look similar to Rhys?
jowys he does look like rhys from torchwood
He’s now in celebrity get me out of here I hope he wins
The blue guy?
The music for this show is too good
I’d simply ✨die✨ if I met David
My TARDIS, mine.
How do we know he's telling the truth?
Cause he is BACK 4 regenerations later!
Allons-y!
What did David Tennant say? I can't quite hear it, someone tell me please.
"Say you're sorry."
XD love it
Wait alpha centuri? What happened with those tentacles
lol
How times change. Today that TARDIS looks so small...
LUCKY BASTARD.
ok
