      According to William Russell aka Ian Chesterton, Hartnell was doing it on purpose. My guess is that he was partially motivated by his desire to do something different after being typecast as "heavy" and "tough guy" characters for so long.

    DW was filmed as live back then so actors didnt get the chance to refilm lines. It was not just Hartnell. Plus he suffered from poor health and often had trouble remembering lines. The man was and still is a legend and a fantastic Doctor. He deserves respect.

      It was not just Doctor Who either. I didn't realise how slick Doctor Who was until I watched episodes of Out of the Unknown, Doomwatch and Survivors. There are some really obvious dialogue fluffs in those shows. There seemed to me to be more fluffs in Survivors than in Doctor Who made at the same time (mid-70s).

      William Russell is just as lost as we are. William Hartnell COMPLETELY forgot his lines and there are only the two of them in the scene. To make matters worse, Russell NEEDS Hartnell to say some of the line to even cover for him with ad-lib. Russell's line of "Ah, how do we open the door? We have no power" is him improvising to prompt Hartnell to get back on script when Hartnell earlier forgot his lines and just shut down. Hartnell is doing all of the blustering hoping that Russell will pick up his lines for him, but again, Russell needs the character of the Doctor to say the right thing so Russell (as Ian) can cover the remainder of the Doctor's lines. Russell does save Hartnell by picking up the Doctor's lines later in the same scene (not featured in this video), but we are left with this wonderful moment where Russell's intense confusion is on camera and it is NOT ACTING.
      The best part of this, is that these are consummate actors who NEVER broke character despite this temporary brain fart from William Hartnell. They even completed the scene in character with slight modifications... even if there is this odd exchange of dialogue in it. Without knowing what the script was, you (as a viewer) would just think it was the Doctor being eccentric.

If that's not unfortunate enough Hartnell replies, "It's quite obvious to the perceptive eye... Your dress, your manner, your taste."

    It actually annoys me when people compare, say, David Tennant with the early Doctors like William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton. They had to act in real time and perform long scenes. Tennant's performances were edited to perfection in post-production. There's no fair comparison actually.

      Hartnell and Troughton also had extensive theatre background, probably a lot more than Tennant, because almost every actor of their era came through weekly rep. The fact remains that actors of today are made to look a lot better through the extensive editing that takes place after filming their (shorter) scenes.

I'm not saying he did make mistakes on Doctor Who, I'm saying that if he did they'd be cut out in post-production, that's the difference, and he wasn't expected to perform long continuous scenes of dialogue in Doctor Who like Hartnell and Troughton did back in the Sixties, so the pressure to get it right first time wasn't the same.

  • @Pingthescribe
    @Pingthescribe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +36

    William Hartnell wasn't the only actor who forgot his lines - Barbara's actress has the occasional scene where she corrects herself, and mistakes were known even during Troughton's tenure. However, his fluffs became iconic!

    • @causticsoda2877
      @causticsoda2877 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Very true, many actors fluffed their lines on the show. In this period it was filmed in two or three chunks without breaks, so it was almost as if it was live television. Many people fluff in theatre too. The sign of a good acting troupe is that your fellows cover for the goof and everyone moves on with the audience none the wiser. Most of the time you do not even notice the fluffs on Doctor Who, which indicates the level of professionalism from all involved.
      I think the reason why WIlliam Hartnell's fluffs were so memorable is twofold.
      1: He had the lion's share of the dialogue.
      2: He was a consummate professional who wanted to get his lines right among other things.
      When you add the heart condition messing with his concentration, you can see why he becomes so iconic as you put it in some of his fluffs. It is the sheer energy of his performance combined with the frantic reaching for the correct line.

    I always found line flubs in Classic Who (along with many other mistakes) to be somewhat endearing. It’s that small moment, small mistake, that reminds me that I’m actually watching something and it gives me a form of joy to notice little details, especially ones that contemporary audiences will never have done. I dislike certain “perfect” movies for that reason, they just feel inhuman.
    Also, I heard Troughton and Frazer Hines would flub lines and make mistakes deliberately because they knew that nine times out of ten that take would wind up in the final cut.

    According to something I read, he used to place his lines on the walls, or ceiling, or on the TARDIS console so he could just read it out. That's why he's always looking around when he's talking.

    He gave an amazing performance under the circunstances. Not only did the cast only have a week to learn their lines but he was an ill man. He had arterosclerosis which eventually killed him.

    It's the little blips like that, that made hartnell's era of doctor who a great show. Not only that we all stumble on our words. It makes it just a little bit more realistic.

    The funny thing was when William hartnel forgot his lines during the live broadcast the viewers just thought it was part of the character of the doctor so it all worked in his favor it gave the character more realism.

  • @JBexplores
    @JBexplores 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It was pretty much filmed live so there was only 1 take. If you were to get any other actor and only gave them 1 chance to get their lines right they would have the same amount of blunders if not more.

    Bill almost makes a mistake when explaining how he defeated the Toymaker.
    "When the Toymaker wanted to move the pieces, he had to croo- to command them in a certain tone of voice. To make them move at all."
