Well that's a matter of opinion, but personally he's probably the only one that can go toe to toe with the Doctor, whilst the others are more like threats.
urutta I think they should give the Master a rest. The Master should be a calculating "Moriarty" type. If you want a psychopathic Time Lord then they should re-introduce Omega
I loved the Simm Master. At once you knew he was completely insane and, being a Time Lord, incredibly dangerous and unpredictable. We finally had a reason why the Master was so hell-bent on being evil. He got off on it, because he was… completely mad. Brilliant and mad. Tennant’'s Doctor still loved and respected him despite the Master's insanity - a beautiful moment in 'new' Who'. Up there with ‘Missy’ turning for the 12th Doctor and dying for his cause, all without the Doctor ever knowing it. I see shades of the Simm ‘Master’ in our new 'Master'. He really does not care whether he lives or dies. He even destroys the Time Lords making the ‘Time War’ redundant. Do you slot him in post-Eric Roberts and pre-Jacobi or did the marvellous 'Missy' manage to regenerate? I do love them all - to varying extents. In memory of two ‘Masters’ from classic ‘Who’ whom I know are dead - Roger Delgado and Anthony Ainley.
I want the next Master, whenever he may appear, to be Delgado style. I want a coolheaded seemingly reasonable man on the surface to hide the dark madness underneath.
DarthRushy Olliander Woods Benedict Cumberbatch is too big for Doctor Who at the moment, he's doing various films/ productions so he'd probably not be able to appear, hell, it took him one year to be able to film Sherlock because of his schedule.
Laurence Winch-Furness I would like to think that maybe davros and the daleks go after the master thinking he is an "easy target" compared to the doctor, only to greatly underestimate him and he locked in a battle of wits and cunning with lots of collateral damage. The doctor arrives to try and end the carnage and is forced to pick the lesser of two evils.
In Terror of the Autons Roger Delgado played the Master and Michael Wisher played Farrel....but Wisher also played Davros in Genesis of the Daleks. So everytime I watch 'Autons' and see the two of them in a scene together I think the same thing...'there is the Master and Davros together...what a great story it would be if they were able to get them both back together again to do it RIGHT!'
Even though he's not my favourite I see him as my Master. He was the master in all the old vhs's I had as a kid and very much the first person I think of when his character is mentioned. Please do check out my updates for this video :) ive done for just for Anthony too
I think if Roger Delgado, Peter Pratt and Antony Ainley were still alive today, and saw this video including the one involving Michelle Gomez, they would've loved it.
So many Ainley scenes... I love it! Ainley is my favorite incarnation! He's so suave and over dramatic it's awesome. His disguises are always over the top and his fake names are usually anagrams of his own names. Not to mention he was HELLA hot! Are you kidding, look at that! That fabulous beard, the slicked back hair, the magnificent velvet! Wait what was I talking about? Oh right, he just wants revenge and he'll do anything to get it. His life is the torment of the doctor and he will end anyone who crosses him or tries to take the doctor's life themselves. He even took over one of the doctors companions fathers to save himself! One of his best episodes, Survival (also the final episode of the old series) is just so good due to how it shows him resorting to the violent and primitive ways of the cheetah people to get what he wants and he nearly falls victim to the disease but holds it back due to will power. He's just fab and he knows. I love his version and will never stop loving it!
I know and it's insane too! So the rumors are true, not only can timelords change their appearance but also their gender too (unless he's possessed a timelady's body).
Interesting, I recently noticed Lucy Saxon was basically a darker version of Jo Grant, the Doctor's companion when Delgado was the master. Like Saxon, Grant was basically 'not especially bright, but essentially harmless', came from a wealthy, well-connected family, and the master tried to hypnotize her into suicide-bombing the Doctor, had he been successful she'd have died the same way as Lucy Saxon did.
You know: this for me is the master, not that absolute mess called "missy" or "Oh". What you have to understand about the master is that he is basically time-lord Stalin. He is not some cahotic, derranged, wild mess who thinks evil is merely fun like hot the recent versions of him are like. He is not deluded the way Lumic is. He is many things: vain, mad, paranoid, ruthless, brilliant, selfish, proud, sadistic but most of all: he is a power maniac. Even without all those other characteristics, the master would never surrender control to the doctor out of senseless "friendship" like with Missy, or for some petulant game like "Oh". The master is first and foremost a control freak: "one must rule or serve that's a basic law of life". The drums driving him mad makes sense because if he is not master of his own mind then of course he would seek mastery over everything else except his mind to compensate. The sound of peoples' compliments and his own self applause for his mastery over something, drowns out the pain he feels from the drums. It's also important to note that he doesn't hate the doctor, he hates the notion of the doctor, or anyone for that matter, having mastery over him. Yes the master is symbolically a villanous version of the doctor and both of them acknowledge that they are both brilliant and they have a complicated, mutually toxic, rivalry-based relationship. But that is not what the master mainly is. The master is mainly, and this has been made obvious to us from the very first scene he is on, at the beginning of"Terror of the Autons", the first Dr who show he is in, a brilliant, merciless, commanding character who wants control. I loved his death in "the end of time part 2", and wish that if he ever came back it would be with the drums gone because the untempered schism was permanently sealed and he took the doctor up on his offer to"just see" the universe and be an even more brilliant hero time lord than the doctor as a way of relishing the mastery he has over himself and being not the monster he thinks the time lords made him out to be. It may seem on a spiritual level that the master's villainy was due to him hearing those drums, but ask yourself how sane you would be if you heard those drums for centuries at least. I don't think his death in the end of time part two was just a redemption, vengeance or suicide act, I think he sincerely believed he would be free of the drums because of it. The only times we are ever shown deep and sincere self-awareness from the master is when he references the drums. He confesses he is unsure of what he would be without them, but as he and the doctor were childhood friends and Professor Yana was a genius, kind man, it's implied that when the drums plagued him for the least amount of time in his life, he was a good man. So it's safe to assume he could actually become a good person without the drums. No doubt he'd be rough around the edges and the process wouldn't be smooth and without some missteps, but still it would be fun to watch. Moffat acted like the drums never existed and he and Chinball made the master out to be some derranged, paradoxical and utterly senseless lunatic who deeply cares more about entertainment than control. The master even at his most benevolent in his professor Yana form (yes I know his mind was addled at the time but it was still on some level him) he tightly gripped control to the point he was willing to die just to control the future of the human race. I love the master because he is by far the most complicated of the doctor's foes and in some ways the most tragic of his friends. He's not a joke for the writers to pull out of a hat or to sloppily exploit fan love of prior Dr who lore when they run out of decent original ideas. He is in a way the doctor's patient who is suffering insanity, just as the universe is his patient suffering the virus in battle armour that is the Daleks. The master's villany is meant to be taken seriously, every master after these ones however, I find far too not serious. Bloody hell I miss the days when villany was meant to be taken seriously in Dr Who. I will always appreciate this master and the sincere effort the writers put into his character. Villans can be entertaining but villany itself shouldn't be seen as entertaining and with this master that is done beautifully.
Simms was completely nutty mad I mean he was a completely off the wall master and I loved him by far my favourite for me everything a master should be.. That's just my opinion missy was good evil yes but lacked that craziness Simms had he was completely bonkers
Mia OnYT yes she was but for me she just didn't have that extra nuttiness about her don't get me wrong she was excellent definitely but John Simm had it all again just my opinion as they say each to there own everybody has different tastes
Should also take a brief moment to mention The Rani as well, she would've been a great addition to the Doctor/Master slap fight. If the show went on for longer, she probably would've ended up with more than 2 stories, and we could've seen her truly shine.
I'm really not a fan of her, especially after the truly awful Time and the Rani, but who knows maybe the new series can make a villain out of the Rani yet
I'd like to see a tribute like this that includes Edward Brayshaw, since I subscribe to the theory that the War Chief from "The War Games" was really the Master.
ZNFrost Plays Its never really explained on screen but essentially he's ran out of lives and is decaying/dying. In a novel "Legacy of the Daleks" Delgados master is mortally wounded leaving him as the decaying corpse. The Master has only had a new set of regenerations since New Who started, prior to that he was stealing bodies
Roger Deldago (The 'First' Master) was never his first incarnation, it was never stated onscreen. The Master says in The Deadly Assassin and/or The Keeper of Traken (I can't remember which) that he is at the end of his thirteenth incarnation, the end for a Time Lord. By the time we got to Doctor Who: The Movie (Which spits on canon the only way Americans and Moffat can) he was stealing bodies. And you know that the Master was resurrected by the Time Lords for the Time War, and then something went down during the Final Day, so he became a woman. Check out the History of the Master on the Doctor Who channel, all the info is on there
+LoriCiani Yeah, he did, but he was at the end of his life cycle by that time. I was actually pleasantly surprised by Tremas' character, and genuinely felt bad about him dying.
I know they cant do it in the show but they should have past incarnations of the Master meet and fight incarnations of The Doctor in novel or comic form
The Three Masters would be cooler. Beevers, Roberts and Simm together while there's still time! (I don't count Jacobi because there's no way to take him out of time)
Wait! If the master was killed by the daleks during his trial in the movie, then how did his remains turn into a water...silver snake? I've been wondering that for months now.
James Troughton They could totally do that, though Jacobi's master was more a one-time role instead of a reoccurring character, though it would be awesome. Actually, there is an Audio Drama called "The Light at the End" (or something like that) which features the "Keeper of Traken" master versus doctors: 8,7,6,5,4.
***** Well...Jacobi has said he would love to do it again. Though how they would go about it I have no idea. (And actually, that was his second portrayal of the Master, his first was the webcast of "Scream of the Shalka".)
***** You forgot about Geoff Beevers, the dude who played him in "Keeper of Traken", and since Jacobi still would like to play the role for another time, and Simm would do it with Tennant's presence, there could be a "Thee latest masters versus three latest doctors" episode, in a few years.
Hey there everyone i been a fan since i first watch doctor who on pbs back when i was a kid just question. How the hell does the master get around does he have a please forgive the spelling a tardis too. If so i like to see it.
Cedric Smith Throughout the classic era he has a tardis, it was only in new who he didn't have one, presumably because he spent many years as a human so its long since been lost.
Great trailer! -Delgado will always be my favorite. He MADE the Master (and well, the cast from the early 70's just had fantastic chemistry). -Haven't seen much of Pratt's Master. -Ainley...he was good. Sadly they just never let him develop the character. They always tried to fit him into Delgado's mold. -Roberts...oh what might of have been! He was a perfect choice really. Could pull off the charm and the menace of the part equally well. Unfortunately he had a terrible written-by-committee script to work from. So for most of his time he had to play a Terminator knock off. Which is sad, because from seeing him play other baddies and from the brief glimpses you get toward the end...if he'd had a better script he would have been brilliant! -Jacobi...well, he's one of my favorite actors so I was sooo excited to find out he was the Master. That scene when he becomes his full self...sent chills down my spine. Honestly, I would have preferred if he'd stayed the Master longer. He was fantastic. (I'd also like to note that that wasn't his first time playing the Master. He did once before for the webcast "Scream of the Shalka".) -Simms...to be honest...I've never been fond of Simm's Master. He just wasn't menacing enough. Yes I know the things he did, but he just never FELT like the Master to me.
I've yet to see Delgado, Pratt or Beevers. I think Ainley is pretty damn good and his own Master, especially in Survival. Roberts is charismatic, but yeah, he was given crap to work with. Jacobi is brilliant. Simm is my favourite, being on top of the world in every scene, rocking about, but I have to agree that in his first story, he lacks that dark, depressing Master feel.
That may have something to do with not liking his portrayal of the master. Besides he only featured once, I focused on the 3 main guys, Delgado, Ainley and Simm
Well, I don't watch the new, revived series, but I can see that The Master of today's show is very different from the one portrayed by the likes of Delgado, Pratt, Ainley, etc. It seems the producers reengineered him to be a bit of a * rip-off of The Joker* from Batman! And it's pathetic ! I don't know about the rest of you, but this doesn't even seem like the same character, to me, Even with his regenerations taken into account! I want the old Master back, in personality I mean, never mind in body
When he's Derek Jacobi for the briefest of moments he's very much like Delgado but much more sinister, and when John Simm plays him he's more of a counterpart to Tennant and so is much more aggressive and angry, but he's still sort of like the Master from before. He's still a good villain in his appearances though in the End of Time he's a raving maniac so he's not very much alike to the original Master, even less so than the original.
TheNoiseySpectator By watching the episodes? There's no way to compare them properly otherwise, though I would warn you that the classic Delgado-style Master isn't really present at all, so don't expect it to be around and just don't think of the Master in immediate comparison to the other Masters and you'll do fine.
I might have a update that You might want to hear I have been seeing if the master was in earlier past days with the doctor I would like to say just for a prediction the master could be in the middle of William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton and for a second thought the master could be in the middle of Jon Pertwee, Tom baker and Colin Baker as well this might be a hit for the masters incarnations and I hope this is it I hope you can find these incarnations
One does not simply watch the Master and not fall in love with his wit, badassery, and all around insanity.
From calculating man, to cold hearted timlord, to raging psychopath. The Master will always be the Doctor's greatest foe
And now she's a woman! And still a match for the Doctor!
The Master(or Mistress) was awesome!
I'm confused, when you speak of a calculating man, a cold hearted timelord, and a raging psychopath. Are you referring to the Master... Or the Doctor?
Ron Villanova beside the daleks
A perfect tribute to my absolute favourite Dr who character
There are many Dalek and Cybermen, but there will only be one Master!
That is true, does that make him better than them?
Well that's a matter of opinion, but personally he's probably the only one that can go toe to toe with the Doctor, whilst the others are more like threats.
urutta Yes, I'd say when it gets to so many Daleks/Cybermen, they become a bit more than a threat.
And aside from Davros, the Master is on equal footing with the Doctor (both are geniuses).
urutta I think they should give the Master a rest. The Master should be a calculating "Moriarty" type. If you want a psychopathic Time Lord then they should re-introduce Omega
I loved the Simm Master. At once you knew he was completely insane and, being a Time Lord, incredibly dangerous and unpredictable. We finally had a reason why the Master was so hell-bent on being evil. He got off on it, because he was… completely mad. Brilliant and mad. Tennant’'s Doctor still loved and respected him despite the Master's insanity - a beautiful moment in 'new' Who'. Up there with ‘Missy’ turning for the 12th Doctor and dying for his cause, all without the Doctor ever knowing it.
I see shades of the Simm ‘Master’ in our new 'Master'. He really does not care whether he lives or dies. He even destroys the Time Lords making the ‘Time War’ redundant. Do you slot him in post-Eric Roberts and pre-Jacobi or did the marvellous 'Missy' manage to regenerate? I do love them all - to varying extents.
In memory of two ‘Masters’ from classic ‘Who’ whom I know are dead - Roger Delgado and Anthony Ainley.
SO HERE IT COMES THE SOUND OF DRUMS!
I want the next Master, whenever he may appear, to be Delgado style. I want a coolheaded seemingly reasonable man on the surface to hide the dark madness underneath.
Robert Carlyle would be perfect as the next Master, if you look at his work on "Once Upon A Time" as Mr. Gold.
Benedict Cumberbatch (Would be the perfect Master)
Olliander Woods Too obvious.
DarthRushy Olliander Woods Benedict Cumberbatch is too big for Doctor Who at the moment, he's doing various films/ productions so he'd probably not be able to appear, hell, it took him one year to be able to film Sherlock because of his schedule.
***** If OUAT ends, he may. He's interested in television right now.
I love your masters updated ones but this my favorite cause of the ending…..”wonder what I be like….without you?”….
I love the master as a character. I also think its a very precise role in talking about mental illness ( even though he's an almost immortal being|)
yk I just noticed Matt Smith never met the master
Or Christopher Eccleston
true
Joe Baumgart I wish they at least did one ep about the master, a part one and two replacing the the death of the Doctor stories back in 2011
I don’t think it would feel right if he did
ApexArmy y?
I'd like to see an encounter between the master and Davros, maybe initially as collaborators, then as adversaries after they double-cross one another
Laurence Winch-Furness I would like to think that maybe davros and the daleks go after the master thinking he is an "easy target" compared to the doctor, only to greatly underestimate him and he locked in a battle of wits and cunning with lots of collateral damage. The doctor arrives to try and end the carnage and is forced to pick the lesser of two evils.
In Terror of the Autons Roger Delgado played the Master and Michael Wisher played Farrel....but Wisher also played Davros in Genesis of the Daleks. So everytime I watch 'Autons' and see the two of them in a scene together I think the same thing...'there is the Master and Davros together...what a great story it would be if they were able to get them both back together again to do it RIGHT!'
The Master,the only enemy of the Doctor who won.
I feel bad about the master the time lords screwed him up
I enjoyed this. Doctor Who has been my favorite TV show for thirty years.
I have been waiting Doctor Who all my life I love classic and new who both, but I have to admit that for me Anthony Ainley is the master
Even though he's not my favourite I see him as my Master. He was the master in all the old vhs's I had as a kid and very much the first person I think of when his character is mentioned.
Please do check out my updates for this video :) ive done for just for Anthony too
@@tardiselliottrailers Ok Thanks so much
I ALWAYS DRESS FOR THE OCCASION.
The Master is an awesome villain and Roger Delgado was the perfect choice of actor to play the Doctors Time Lord arch-enemy and so perfectly.
I think if Roger Delgado, Peter Pratt and Antony Ainley were still alive today, and saw this video including the one involving Michelle Gomez, they would've loved it.
Sean Naylor I certainly hope so :)
So many Ainley scenes... I love it! Ainley is my favorite incarnation! He's so suave and over dramatic it's awesome. His disguises are always over the top and his fake names are usually anagrams of his own names. Not to mention he was HELLA hot! Are you kidding, look at that! That fabulous beard, the slicked back hair, the magnificent velvet! Wait what was I talking about? Oh right, he just wants revenge and he'll do anything to get it. His life is the torment of the doctor and he will end anyone who crosses him or tries to take the doctor's life themselves. He even took over one of the doctors companions fathers to save himself! One of his best episodes, Survival (also the final episode of the old series) is just so good due to how it shows him resorting to the violent and primitive ways of the cheetah people to get what he wants and he nearly falls victim to the disease but holds it back due to will power. He's just fab and he knows. I love his version and will never stop loving it!
The master is back
this now means the doctor can turn in to a women
*Mistress
I know and it's insane too! So the rumors are true, not only can timelords change their appearance but also their gender too (unless he's possessed a timelady's body).
urutta Sim a women?
Yes but not for the best I'm afried --'
As a child of the Eighties, Anthony Ainley was the first version of the Master I saw. Which is why his Master will always be my favourite.😀
They should give The Master a new Regeneration, It's a perfect Time.
They soon did
Absolutely amazing. I love it.
love the master, so happy john is returning
Awesome compilation.
Has no one noticed that Jacobi wore a version of Hartnell's costume? That's a nice detail.
Interesting, I recently noticed Lucy Saxon was basically a darker version of Jo Grant, the Doctor's companion when Delgado was the master. Like Saxon, Grant was basically 'not especially bright, but essentially harmless', came from a wealthy, well-connected family, and the master tried to hypnotize her into suicide-bombing the Doctor, had he been successful she'd have died the same way as Lucy Saxon did.
Awesome trailer, loved it and its craft.
I don't know how I feel... :'(
The Master was my first Doctor.
Nicely done.
Peter Hamilton thanks - you should check out my updated version with missy and macqueen
He will always come back! The Doctor always knows this! The Master of all matter!
Andrew Scott for next master
Wouldn't that make her The mistress?
How about an updated version with Michelle Gomez?
3:23 isn't an opening for another regeneration, now is it?
This needs a missy update, :3
The drums! The nether ending drums can't you here them?
The drums!!!
You know: this for me is the master, not that absolute mess called "missy" or "Oh".
What you have to understand about the master is that he is basically time-lord Stalin. He is not some cahotic, derranged, wild mess who thinks evil is merely fun like hot the recent versions of him are like. He is not deluded the way Lumic is.
He is many things: vain, mad, paranoid, ruthless, brilliant, selfish, proud, sadistic but most of all: he is a power maniac. Even without all those other characteristics, the master would never surrender control to the doctor out of senseless "friendship" like with Missy, or for some petulant game like "Oh".

oh. my. god. falling skies theme. always makes me so sad.
anyway very nice tribute !
Update with new master please :P
The Master
Roberto Romano MG's Master/Missy reminded me a lot of Simms Master. I quite liked that. Crazy and damaged
Simms was completely nutty mad I mean he was a completely off the wall master and I loved him by far my favourite for me everything a master should be.. That's just my opinion missy was good evil yes but lacked that craziness Simms had he was completely bonkers
Rose Tyler She was totally nuts! Dancing and singing around. Acting like AI randomly killing ppl…
Mia OnYT yes she was but for me she just didn't have that extra nuttiness about her don't get me wrong she was excellent definitely but John Simm had it all again just my opinion as they say each to there own everybody has different tastes
If u listen carfully to the lyrics of chasing the sun it has alot of references to the master
Great video!
Wonderful ! Thank you :o)
I want Julian McMahon to take a crack at being the Master.
Should also take a brief moment to mention The Rani as well, she would've been a great addition to the Doctor/Master slap fight. If the show went on for longer, she probably would've ended up with more than 2 stories, and we could've seen her truly shine.
I'm really not a fan of her, especially after the truly awful Time and the Rani, but who knows maybe the new series can make a villain out of the Rani yet
TARDISELLIOT TRAILERS The Rani could be done really good if they brought her back, she was a good idea that was shat on.
where can i watch doctor who but with english subs!:D?!
This guy has had OVER 12 cycles and yet... But I DO like the latest Master the very best
oh yes
I'd like to see a tribute like this that includes Edward Brayshaw, since I subscribe to the theory that the War Chief from "The War Games" was really the Master.
Which episode is that 00:21 ?
If it's the '-he's my best enemy'-bit, then it's from 'The Five Doctors' anniversary piece.
i am only 16 so dont know any clasic who but why is the master so disformed in the clasic who ? in his 2nd and 3rd incarnation
ZNFrost Plays Its never really explained on screen but essentially he's ran out of lives and is decaying/dying. In a novel "Legacy of the Daleks" Delgados master is mortally wounded leaving him as the decaying corpse. The Master has only had a new set of regenerations since New Who started, prior to that he was stealing bodies
oh ok thanks for the info i realy appreciate it

Wait a minute, I thought the Master stole Tremas's body at the end of The Keeper of Traken.
+LoriCiani Yeah, he did, but he was at the end of his life cycle by that time. I was actually pleasantly surprised by Tremas' character, and genuinely felt bad about him dying.
I only just found your channel, but if you haven’t already, then you should do another one with Missy included!
This is my most up to date version
th-cam.com/video/F46tG7zQ1X0/w-d-xo.html
Oh my Gallifrey...
I know they cant do it in the show but they should have past incarnations of the Master meet and fight incarnations of The Doctor in novel or comic form
The Three Masters would be cooler. Beevers, Roberts and Simm together while there's still time!
(I don't count Jacobi because there's no way to take him out of time)
What about Delgado? That guy was the master and I can tell why you want John Simm
Ron Villanova Well, Delgado's dead. So... comeback would be a little iffy for him.
DarthRushy not for books or comics
Ron Villanova Yeah, but I was talking about TV.
Wait! If the master was killed by the daleks during his trial in the movie, then how did his remains turn into a water...silver snake? I've been wondering that for months now.
WOW
They have the multiple doctor stories, why not do the same for the master?
Mainly because 90% of the have passed away but I love the idea :)
I always imagined 10, 9 and 8 fighting the latest 3 masters.
James Troughton They could totally do that, though Jacobi's master was more a one-time role instead of a reoccurring character, though it would be awesome. Actually, there is an Audio Drama called "The Light at the End" (or something like that) which features the "Keeper of Traken" master versus doctors: 8,7,6,5,4.
***** Well...Jacobi has said he would love to do it again. Though how they would go about it I have no idea. (And actually, that was his second portrayal of the Master, his first was the webcast of "Scream of the Shalka".)
***** You forgot about Geoff Beevers, the dude who played him in "Keeper of Traken", and since Jacobi still would like to play the role for another time, and Simm would do it with Tennant's presence, there could be a "Thee latest masters versus three latest doctors" episode, in a few years.
I like to see either Steve John Shepard (played Michael Moon in Eastenders) or Callum Blue (played Zod in Smallville).
***** Callum Blue would be an interesting choice
A few questions:
How do you get such good videos from the DVDs and what program do you use to edit?
Including Missy I think John Simm's was the best I don't know which one I prefer though, the Resurrected Master or the Harold Saxon master.
it's a shot in the dark being an ordinary guy i wish i could be the next master
The Master is returning at some point, according to a comment made by a past doctor. So, you never know, you could be.
i hope so that would be sweet i can somewhat make my voice sound like anthony ainley
Nah mate, do your own thing. What would your interpretation of the master be? (Public question)
a cross between ainley and delgado just younger and far more cruel
I don’t know why “The Master”could not have had his own spin off series.Maybe he flys around in a porta potty ? An intergalactic shit disturber .
I allways wonder. ...Why Doctor never used same skills than Master did? He couldnt?
1st 2nd 9th 11th 13th (so far) all of them never encountered the master
😭
The Master always gets the wimpiest screams...
Either Christopher Lee or Hugh Laurie are my favorites to play the Master :D
I can see Hugh Laurie playing The Master to Peter Capaldi's Doctor
Carnagevenomtoxin Hugh Laurie would be a very interest choice
I see James Nesbitt playing The Master. Check out his performance in Jekyll.
Hugh Laurie? The guy from Blackadder? Na.
Lee is too old for that kind of role, but Laurie would be brilliant.
Thank god i. Series 8 there will be a new master
It won't
Hey there everyone i been a fan since i first watch doctor who on pbs back when i was a kid just question. How the hell does the master get around does he have a please forgive the spelling a tardis too. If so i like to see it.
Cedric Smith Throughout the classic era he has a tardis, it was only in new who he didn't have one, presumably because he spent many years as a human so its long since been lost.
Great trailer!
-Delgado will always be my favorite. He MADE the Master (and well, the cast from the early 70's just had fantastic chemistry).
-Haven't seen much of Pratt's Master.
-Ainley...he was good. Sadly they just never let him develop the character. They always tried to fit him into Delgado's mold.
-Roberts...oh what might of have been! He was a perfect choice really. Could pull off the charm and the menace of the part equally well. Unfortunately he had a terrible written-by-committee script to work from. So for most of his time he had to play a Terminator knock off. Which is sad, because from seeing him play other baddies and from the brief glimpses you get toward the end...if he'd had a better script he would have been brilliant!
-Jacobi...well, he's one of my favorite actors so I was sooo excited to find out he was the Master. That scene when he becomes his full self...sent chills down my spine. Honestly, I would have preferred if he'd stayed the Master longer. He was fantastic. (I'd also like to note that that wasn't his first time playing the Master. He did once before for the webcast "Scream of the Shalka".)
-Simms...to be honest...I've never been fond of Simm's Master. He just wasn't menacing enough. Yes I know the things he did, but he just never FELT like the Master to me.
I've yet to see Delgado, Pratt or Beevers.
I think Ainley is pretty damn good and his own Master, especially in Survival.
Roberts is charismatic, but yeah, he was given crap to work with.
Jacobi is brilliant.
Simm is my favourite, being on top of the world in every scene, rocking about, but I have to agree that in his first story, he lacks that dark, depressing Master feel.
If you have not seen Delgado, I strongly suggest you do. He was..well...the Master.
Josh Rush I'm on a Doctor Who marathon and am finishing the Hartnells. I'll get to him eventually.
I agree with you for John Simm. I just hope that Moffat doesn't crap on the 'Mistress' like he did with the rest of the series so far...
RandomWhovianMapper He already did.
Simm ist the best Master ❤️
Except Morbius?
Morbius isn't the master. They're both different Time-Lords.

I know this :) My eyes fooled me, i thought i seen him in this video.
haha really? whatever man...
Yes,your senses can always fool you ;) But it happens rarely .
Check my channel as there is an updated version!
Give us Charles Dance as the next master please
There is only the Master Race :)
There's not a lot of Eric Roberts here...
That may have something to do with not liking his portrayal of the master. Besides he only featured once, I focused on the 3 main guys, Delgado, Ainley and Simm
TARDISELLIOT TRAILERS only Delgado and Ainley and Beevers were good (on screen)
I like all versions baring Roberts, I'm a big fan of Simm but Ainley is the Master for me
Vladimír Mlečenkov Agreed, I didn't like Simm
Lord Slarr you are my kind of man
3:16 , because that fall wasn't faked!

SWEET TRANSVESTITE! THE MASTER HAS REGENERATED AS A WOMAN!
Well, I don't watch the new, revived series, but I can see that The Master of today's show is very different from the one portrayed by the likes of Delgado, Pratt, Ainley, etc.
It seems the producers reengineered him to be a bit of a * rip-off of The Joker* from Batman! And it's pathetic !
I don't know about the rest of you, but this doesn't even seem like the same character, to me, Even with his regenerations taken into account!
I want the old Master back, in personality I mean, never mind in body
When he's Derek Jacobi for the briefest of moments he's very much like Delgado but much more sinister, and when John Simm plays him he's more of a counterpart to Tennant and so is much more aggressive and angry, but he's still sort of like the Master from before. He's still a good villain in his appearances though in the End of Time he's a raving maniac so he's not very much alike to the original Master, even less so than the original.
Jak Palmer I mean like 10 minutes, that's not really really short but it's nothing like an entire episode.
Jak Palmer Oh, cool. At least my point still stands :)
Jak Palmer & iHuzza
Well, then; how *do* these "New Masters" stack up to the old ones?
TheNoiseySpectator By watching the episodes? There's no way to compare them properly otherwise, though I would warn you that the classic Delgado-style Master isn't really present at all, so don't expect it to be around and just don't think of the Master in immediate comparison to the other Masters and you'll do fine.
I might have a update that You might want to hear I have been seeing if the master was in earlier past days with the doctor I would like to say just for a prediction the master could be in the middle of William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton and for a second thought the master could be in the middle of Jon Pertwee, Tom baker and Colin Baker as well this might be a hit for the masters incarnations and I hope this is it I hope you can find these incarnations
Why did we have ti turn him into a victim, why cannot ppl just be evil?
Why they turn Master into Missy, just why?!!! John Simm was the best master ever.
well at least he's coming back
It could be great!
It will!
I don't hold with Missy, not because she is a woman - but because she is a crap character. Mind you, Jon Simm is almost as bad..
