It's the fact she screams "Rory" and not "Doctor". Like she knows in that moment that she needs her husband, not her hero
it’s also a sign that he’s not the “tin dog” anymore, amy realises how much she means to him
What makes you think Rory isn't her hero?
@@faolan1686 He hasn't been up until now, and that's been the problem in their relationship. It changes in this sequence.
@@StephenMercer The problem in their relationship has been her trying to screw the Doctor
@@mattpreece6106 To me, that's another way of stating the same problem. Rory wasn't her hero; the Doctor was her hero. He changed to be more what she wanted, but she also shifted what she wanted. Both Rory and Amy had to change.
That moment you realise: Rory never got to hold his real baby daughter
She did experience him holding her, though, and he saw and felt her reactions to him. It's a question of philosophy, really, like is seeing someone on skype as good as seeing them through a glass window? At least they got to meet each other. =)
chicken skink Ironically, you just did.
Soy Gato YoU lOoK lIkE a ScHoOl ShOoTeR
@dave IsDave the OP meant that in this scene it was already a granger baby. Amy did experience being with the real Melody, but Rory never did.
@@hiccuphufflepuff176 not just meet, they grew up together 😄
A Good Man Goes To War is easily one of the best episodes of this season. It has a dark theme, we get a look at other characters the Doctor has met off-screen, and just when you think the day is safe, Kovarian pulls a "LOL, NOPE!" and the Doctor is defeated. This episode also acts as an inside look into the character of the Doctor, and the fact that after millions of adventures and defeating countless monsters, he's gone from a stubborn scientist running through time and space to something much darker and more powerful.

apparently captain jack was meant to be in this episode but he was filming miracle day , it was meant to explain how he is the face of boe
REALLY??!?!?!?!?!?! JAAAACK, NOOOOOOOOOO
TheUberPredator Indeed, he was to be beheaded by the monks and because his body would then become a monk, he couldn't fuse back together.
Sonicbolt With all the tentacles the face of boe had, I always thought he lost his body, when his future self went to utopia.
That being said. Wouldnt that mean, that the doctor would have to face an immortal monk?
kommo1 I suppose. But there is a theory Jacks head is needed for the body to be immortal
But then again that would be weird because the Moffat era seems to be set in a different universe to the RTD era.
At this point in time, Rory was the single most dangerous force in existence - A Husband and a Father protecting his family at all costs.
Russell Kostal
No you don't.
+Russell Kostal same, if anyone hurts my family, I'll go to the ends of earth to have justice.
Daniel Haire that combined with being backed by one of the most dangerous Time Lords in existence, a silurian ninja and apprentice, a sontaran and the weight of years he has as the last centurion
Daniel Haire Well I've always thought that the title of this episode "A good man goes to war" was referring to Rory. Remember how the episode starts, Amy is telling Melody about the man that's coming to save her, a m who has fought armies and lived for hundreds of years "and this man, Melody, is your farther."
Me: *Sees Rory in Roman armor and is defending Amy* "Yeah... I'm just gonna... go this way" *Makes hasty retreat*
"A child IS NOT A WEAPON!"
Tell that to the UNSC, Doctor.
are you referring to Project Orion?
lord trollet Close but no. Project Orion drew recruits from consenting adult soldiers in the UNSC armed forces as a forerunner to the SPARTAN programme. The first true success in the creation of power armoured supersoldiers came with the SPARTAN-II Program which used "conscripted" 6 year old children.
"No one HUMAN HAS ANYTHING TO SAY TO ME TODAY!" - The Doctor.
I think SinDawg030 is referring to Project Child-Steal. Oh wait, we changed the name didn't we.
On that note, Master Chief totally could've wiped the floor with these Monks if he'd been there.
“The man who abhors violence, never carrying a gun, but this is the truth Doctor: you take ordinary people and fashion them into weapons”
Take Martha for example, says the man who intended on destroying the whole of creation.
Then again, he also turned a Sontaran soldier into a nurse...
@@MovieMagic515 Yes, Davros isn't really going to get the moral high ground, no matter how bad he tries to make the doctor look.
@@abbyalphonse499 Yeah. Davros doesn't really have a leg to stand on, both in the literal and metaphorical sense, when it comes to moral superiority, especially when he created a species that is considered the greatest threat in the universe.
Oh the 9th Doctor uses Guns.
Damn, I wish Captain Jack Harkness actually appeared in this...This is the only time I'll say, damn you Torchwood
blame arrow.
They apparently tried to get Barrowman for this, but he couldn't because of scheduling with other projects at the time.
You're right. When you attack a fortress, what better ally than a man who can't die?
This was meant to be the end of his story as well, his transition from harkness to the face of boe, he was meant to be beheaded, not dorium
that actually makes a lot of sense and it would be fantastic to see the end of his arc
"Oh Doctor, fooling you once was a joy. But fooling you twice? The same way? It's a privilege." Superb villaining from Madame there.
Demons run, when a good man goes to war

Complete nonsense made to sound poetic.

karen's scream. pure good acting.
who the fuck is karen
@@GRIMREAPER87997 Amy's actress
@@montelhelem8707 Still breaks my heart
Amy was quite a screamer, too... (not like River, though)
I think the baby was a more impressive actor, I mean she literally turned herself into white gunky stuff for that role, now that's dedication
"RORYYY RORRRYYYYYY"
Doctor: SHE'S HAVING AN EMOTION!
lol
Ethan Spackman YES
Fooling you once was a joy but fooling you twice the same way it's a privilege. I hate Madame Kovarian. Just heartbreaking for Amy but a fantastic episode
Robert Mitchell Like Amy remembering doing it though in another reality, I think Madam remembers her doing it and that is one reason she has laid low...
Amy remembers killing her so in turn she does not exist in this universe
I don't know why but " oh dear god its the attack prayer " has always been hilarious
Doctor Who gets very corny at time but I always thought thay was the stupidest line of all of them. "Attack prayer"? Come ooonnnnn lmao
Because the phrase attack prayer is oxymoronic.
@@henrypeters5291 Tell that to the Knights Templar 🤣
Tbf tho I still remember watching this when it broadcast and getting fuckin heart palpitations from the panic the prayer set into me
When she says "This endless bitter war", could she possibly be talking about the war on Trenzelore? I mean that war took hundreds of years.
Hmm... you actually could be right on the money there. Never thought of that before.
It was the church of the silence fighting.
Spot on. There's even a very quick mention of 'the Kovarian sect' in Time of the Doctor and how they wanted to go back in time (from their perspective) to stop the Doctor ever reaching Trenzelore. I really did enjoy Time of the Doctor, but I wish things like that had been covered in a little bit more detail, especially considering how important Kovarian and her sect were not just to this episode, but to the whole of series 6.
That's exactly what she's talking about. She leads a group of Silents who broke off from the church in order to kill the Doctor before he could even get to Trenzalore, preventing him from ever answering the question and unleashing the Time War.
James Aggas The story regarding the Silence, Melody, Trenzalore etc actually makes perfect sense, but it really needed more time spent on individual aspects.
I'll never forget that feeling in the pit of my stomach when that little window slid open on Melody. Wonderful acting by Karen at this part
I love how the second the fake baby melted Amy didn't call the Doctor. She called Rory. Between that moment and when she was telling Melody that her father was coming to rescue them, you see how much Amy truly relies on Rory and knows that he will do everything he can to protect them. Also love that Rory has a sword and a laser gun. Such a cool shot.
So... the monks' attack prayer is dubstep? XD
Also, can we all just take a moment to appreciate Rory in that battle stance, especially in comparison to his initial appearance in the previous series/season?
Apparently the Nazgûl got some new swords.
+gieltje309 "The Nine have left Middle-Earth. They reach the Doctor on Midsummer's Eve, disguised as monks without heads."
Yeah, kind of a stretch, but I did the best I could.
UnityQuest Epic
3:42 I get chills every single time I hear Amy's desperate cry for her husband.
Also, my fellow whovian brother feels that the way the flesh goop is spilled all over Amy's lap is some kind of symbolism for a miscarriage. Not technically related to what I said earlier, I realize, but I just felt like sharing that.
Izumi Hanjinozuka Same ! !!!!!!!!
Izumi Hanjinozuka I was about to say the same thing
I feel the same way. About her cry, not the miscarriage.....I've got a niece so I know the bond between adult and child, and every time I watch Amy in this scene, I understand how she feels as I would feel the same way if anything happened to any children or nieces/nephews of mine.
my little brother was born when i was ten so i remember seeing him for the first time and the first thing i did was promise him i would take care of him. I almost understand but i hope to never understand completely how she feels.
Flesh goop is actually milk.

"RORY!! MELODY'S BEEN REDUCED TO... CUSTARD!"
KawaiiCupcake That is an image that I shall never be able to purge.
Lol
Where are the fish fingers?
OMFG.
Amy: *slap the doctor* RORY WE'RE LEAVING THE DOCTOR BEEN EATING OUR DAUGHTER!
2:28: You can feel the Doctor's pure frustration in this moment. An innocent baby is being used as a weapon, and Madame Kovarian doesn't seem to care.
One of my favourite lines in all of doctor who. 'At all costs protect the child'
I remember when I was first watching this episode, I was so hoping that the solider girl would be revealed to be Jenny, the Doctor's daughter from the 10th's run. We'd seen regeneration energy crop up a few times by this point, sometimes without changing a timelord's appearance, sometimes changing it a little while after the first blast. I'd been hoping that Jenny's appearance would have changed sometime after she flew off in that ship back in the day, and she'd been trying to find her way back to the Doctor ever since. But, given that the Doctor has enemies here and there, she learned not to outright say that she was his daughter. And then when she finally saw him again, she couldn't tell him.
Ironically, I just finished showing this episode to my wife a few minutes ago, who has not kept up with the episodes as I have. She is going to watch the 50th with me and wanted me to show the best episodes. The look on her face when they show the translation of Melody Pond's name on the baby cloth was priceless. :)
It's managed so well. Most people get it when River explains the Forest people have no word for Pond because there's only the river. Putting together the whole Melody/Song couplet on their own makes everyone feel a little bit smarter than the Doctor.
Impossible for me to not cry at this scene. I was literally holding my two month old daughter, while watching this the first time. You want to talk about full on ugly crying.
If Steven Moffat could always write like this, I would be sooooo happy
The problem is that moffat is very talented when you limit him to single episodes or short arcs.....the best example of that is the 50th anniversary ....brilliant episode....disaster for the series as a whole
@@MrJpc1234 now that he's gone see how people miss him. You don't realize what you have until it's gone
@@jordondraggon1459 I don't even remotely miss him. Even with Chibnall being pretty poor, Moffat was still terrible
@@scottjones3297 he was great wdum
@@scottjones3297 couldn't even finish the newest season, "pretty poor" is an understatement
This moment broke my heart in all the ways possible.
The headless monks song is freaking me out.
2:20 imagine ur in ur bed at 3 am with sleep paralysis, and that comes slowly edging towards you
Even all these years later, still sends a shiver down my spine
This is one of the best episodes of Moffat's and Matt's era =D
I love Rory's opening to this ep :)..."Shall I repeat that?"
I was crying with my eyes wide open when Amy began calling for Rory....
But...but...The Doctor's face. :o When he realizes what's happened. His face.
I read ur comment just as it happened lol
For the monks, execution and recruitment are synonymous.
Doctor, brave and good,
He turned away from violence,
When he understood,
The falling of the silence.
Tick tock, goes the clock,
He gave her all he could give her,
Tick tock, goes the clock,
Now prison waits for River
richard wright So sad :'(
Tick tock goes the clock. He cradles and he rocks her.
Tick tock until the day river kills the doctor.
This was actually the third episode I watched, courtesy of a friend that I told that I was starting to watch the show. It also didn't help that the two episodes I had seen before were David Tennant episodes- the finale of series 4, to be exact, because they were on TV. Talk about spoilers...
UGH my friend's mum accidentally ruined the Captain Jack twist for me (WARNING: SPOILERS). It was the first episode with the Face of Bo in it, and she walked in and said, before anyone could stop her, "Oh it's Jack".
I love this episode, this part where they have their final stand against the monks to protect Melody at all costs not to mention the doctor unable to prevent it pure doctor who magic
Jack Harkness should have been there. :(
Marcos Augusto Lagardo Gómez
I know.
Marcos Augusto Lagardo Gómez DAMN YOU TORCHWOOD
Javitomanzano I saw a theory (well more of a headcanon) that the doctor didn't ask for Jacks help because he felt guilty for not being there in children of earth (Torchwood) - I do know it's because John wasn't available cause of Torchwood but it's a nice headcanon
My favorite episode
2:28 I didn't know Rory knew Jedi combat form 2!
„the enemies fall,when good man goes to war”
-The Doctor
It’s amazing how Matt smith can become dark and happy so fast
I think the two seconds of useless sonic screw driving before going right back to banging is the real emotional moment, here.
1:22 That's the music from the end of "Midnight"
I’ve been trying to find the name of the song. And I can’t find it anywhere. I love that music... but it’s not in any of the songs, and it’s different from the Doctor’s normal theme (I’ve checked everything).
Actually did some additional scrolling here, and thanks to some lovely people near the beginning of the comments I found the track, or well there’s two unreleased versions. 😅 I wasn’t sure if you ever found it a few months ago, so I wanted to help out too!
It’s derived from this version from the “Don’t” moment in an episode from Tennant’s era: th-cam.com/video/YSMSk924STc/w-d-xo.html
Amy and Rory and river weren't just companions they were literally his family
This episode was the DW version of endgame
“A good man goes to war” is more like “The Empire Strikes Back” from the world of Doctor Who. "Impossible Astronaut" and "Day of the Moon" are "A New Hope" and "Wedding of River Song" is Return of the Jedi" And what "Let's Kill Hitler" is, I don't know.
And if you compare with the films about the Avengers, then “A Good Man Goes to War” is more like “Infinity War”
"Impossible Astronaut" and "Day of the Moon"-"Avengers" and "Age of Ultron".
"Wedding of River Song" -"Endgame".
Stolen Earth/Journey's End was a better Endgame than this. AGMGTW is good, but it's surrounded by so much mediocrity and bad.
[_squirt_]
Oh, God.
Myotic TeSeract Thank you for making my day.
Myotic TeSeract Also, how do you make your writing italic?
Loki Laufeyson VII Idk but might be one of those keyboards
BabypineappleZ12 it's like this *ghfhhcd* you put a kind of letter like - this. -hate my life-
Loki Laufeyson VII put a _ before and after the writing
The ganger- Melody Pond's death haunted me, though she was a synthetic baby, Melody 2.0 still deserved to live a normal life with Amy, Rory, and her biologically-conceived sister Melody/River Song. The Silence are douchebags, for terminating an innocent child and traumatizing the universe for eons.
charles Receski I think the real Melody was unconscious.
@@Silverwind87 true
I like how everyone seems to forget that The Rebel Flesh even happened. Don't forget the whole part about the eyes of the gangers, and how even the ones who show no signs of resistance are still beings. So the fake Melody Pond and the fake Amy Pond were both beings separate from the original people- even if they were never in control.
Pause at 3:38 the Doctor is running down a TARDIS corridor, but painted grey.
I was just saying that they used the same set for it. Also, nice comment editing other guy, so not obvious.
Why are you talking to yourself?
+randomaspland's sandwich he's not talking to himself, the person he was talking to properly deleted their comment
Just the fact that Melody Pond is really River Song and that their daughter has been with them all this time and that she married the Doctor is amazing
My biggest problem with River Song is that she can regenerate. Both of her parents are human. There's absolutely no way she could have a Time Lords' most powerful ability even if she was conceived in the Time Vortex. At most, she'd just have a slightly longer lifespan and a better perception of time than a normal person.
Honestly, giving River the ability to regenerate was completely pointless anyway. Her timeline is so out of sync that she could still have had that friendship with Amy and Rory, jumped forwards a couple of decades whilst looking for the Doctor, and then come back as Alex Kingston without shoving in something totally unbelievable.
Goose bumps from that episode
"My God......my daughter is pudding"...
Would you like a jelly baby?
Hiccup Hufflepuff Now is not the time😂
Could you imagine how traumatic it would be for you as a parent, if what you believe to be your kid just disintegrated in your arms like that? Yeah, a lot of peoples minds would just snap.
Sends shivers down my spine love this episode
Demons run, but count the cost
The battle's won, but the child is lost
Waky waky! ;)
This is one of my favourite 11th doctor episodes
The monks chanting freaks me out, it's just so eerie to me
Would've liked this series so much more if we got to see it in one go rather than two halves that were miles apart
The split I didn't mind so much, the screwing up of the season arcs in the second half I did mind.
"Good men don't need rules, today is not the day to find out why I have so many"
This episode made me cry the first and second...and third and...oh what the hell I cry every time I watch it!
3:39 Flesh avatar of melody melts.
The "Demons run when a good man's goes to war" poem always gives me chills
Love the last 'when a good man goes to war' being a camera shot of Rory, a husband fighting for his wife and daughter against the odds.
Honestly. Rory's combat ability is so damn high.
Shame he never got to hang out with Jack. I think having an Uncle Jack the Immortal would've beem amazing for River and Doctor.
also it would've had some interesting connotations with his kind of lore with the headless monnks.. they would have been made aware of him here.
and the potential for him to have lost his time machine here.
they actually wanted to put him in this episode, but the actor was busy filming "miracle day"
I’m convinced that scene with the pirate captain was originally written for Jack - he bursts onto the screen in a major surprise, cocks his gun and says “Captain Jack Harkness, and who are you?”
0:37
It is similar sound from waters of mars, the end part when it is show the history change.
"Attack prayer" - the Catholic Church never changes
I wish more was revealed about Kovarian in that series she is one of my favourite DW villains
Well at least the monks had their head in the game
Badum tish.
the best episode of all Doctor who till now
This battle looked pretty cool when I was younger.. shame it doesn't live up with age. Still, it's the story that makes this battle epic as a whole
It's a lesson so many directors still need to learn...it's the story that makes a battle badass most of all, not just flashy choreography.
that remix of "i am the doctor" when the doctor is running back to them gives me chills
Surely I can't be the only one that thought Lorna was a great character for this episode!?
When the monks started there attack prayer it was so intimidating but rather cool
I love how the doctor tries to screwdriver the door.
One of the episodes that makes one deeply invested in 11 and his companions.
I love this fight. Everyone except Rory was introduced earlier in the same episode, but you still feel invested in them all, because they're all cool characters and they're all risking their lives for Melody.
Still gives me chills Everytime I watch that
Is it just me, or does the attack prayer send shivers down my spine
Id like to just point out the logistics of a Headless Monk Chanting anything
BEST EPISODE EVER
"Oh they'll understand... It's just me. Only silly old me..."
*[CHOP]*
Yep. They understood perfectly.
2:25, that's the Soresu lightsaber form which Obi-Wan Kenobi uses. Only, Rory has a gun.
Rory Williams comes from the Sakamoto Ryoma school of "Fight with a sword and a gun, one on each hand."
The attack prayer is probably just that verse from the Book of Armaments in Monty Python.
I was never a big fan of Amy's character but I really liked her in this episode and was applauding Karen's acting
Every episode of the Mandalorian be like
I had a jumpscare at the end, when the fake baby has been crushed ;(
Izka Izowska And she was an innocent little synthetic baby. I feel so sad for her.
(Melody 2.0, that is, not Kovarian.)
I would scream too if my baby dissolved into mayonnaise and/or splooge.
Dammit Doctor, your door slam made Amy's baby turn into dairy!
awe.. I love the part with the order "Tell them to run away" :( shows the true darkness of the doctor.
this is just incredible. Gets me everytime
Rip Hunter can never have a break
A Good Man Goes to War... To protect a child. Let that sink in.
3:40 you made me ink
man every one says the weeping angels are the scariest thing in the world i personally thought the silence and the headless monks were worse the headless monk chant just freaks me out
That bit when they realize melody wasnt melody broke my heart
2:25 Rory bringing out his inner Obi-Wan?
