What's brilliant is that this is Matt Smith's real breakthrough role, so many people didn't know what to think of him when David Tennant regenerated. At least you know him and know you'll enjoy the next season 😊
@@soundgal_sine_qua_non Once he was announced his new show was "Party Animals" on BBC 2 which was a political drama about junior staff in Westminster that I had to see 👀 Matt also starred twice with Billie Piper first in "Ruby & The Smoke" & shared the screen again as a customer of Billie's in "Confessions Of A Call Girl"
I literally cried so hard too... Tried to stop but failed miserably... I ran to the bathroom and cried my heart and soul out a few days ago... Decided to watch Doctor who because of Matt Smith but fell in love with David Tenant's performance as the 10th Doctor....
I have met RTD personally & he told me that as a writing focus it was his mother 100% saying to me "Who would you want to best guide you at the end of your life?" It's also in the stage direction in the script & in the book "The Writers Tale" RTD told me though it was left ambiguous in-vision over time he has loved the many fan theories of who she was & joked they were better than his intention. And yes RTD was incredible to meet (So was Moffat) I've got a short story. I met him at the Radiotimes TV Festival in 2015 & he was doing a Q&A on stage about his BBC version of "A midsummer nights dream" He came off stage and stayed to chat, sign autographs, pictures anything for the fans. He stayed for ages to a point where Steven Moffat came from behind the curtain to jokingly chastise RTD for making everyone late for his interview to promote DW S9 with his Doctor!! It was hilarious 😂 😃 I briefly then met Moffat & fellow exec Bryan Minchin & got a pic. In the end The Doctor was stuck in traffic on the M4 (Motorway/Freeway) so the stage talk with Moffat & S9 Doc was delayed 😂 If you've read all this I'm happy to point out that despite RTD leaving DW years before he still went out of his way to please DW fans as he loves Who. Never meet your heroes they say? He was incredible to fans that day & ill always remember it 🥰 & Moffat was a riot!! You can see how close they are
funny thing is i never heard of matt smith till i watched his dr who and since that day i cannot take him seriously in other shows because my mind just thinka: oh well thats just typical evil doctor right there lmao, so its gonna be fun to see how you react to it in reverse since u have watched house of dragons. almost forgot to mention just as David loved and watched doctor who as a kid growing up so did matt smith so its even better that grown up fan actors have actually ended up becoming the doctor and actually nailing it
There’s a magic to this era of Dr who that the last 5 years or so just doesn’t have. The last 2 drs just doesn’t feel like who anymore. The magic is long gone
Love that you call out the music. It was a great honor to be part of the Lockdown choir that sang the song Vale Decem.
Mad respect to you, that vale vale vale vale, is stuck in my head forever as a core childhood memory

David will always be My Doctor but there's still so much great stuff to come after this point!
Technically he knocked 16 times but as prophecies go it doesn't have the same ring to it 😅
He knocked 4 times, 4 times
The best Doctor has arrived

Idk if you mean 14 or 13 cus I’d say 13s era felt like doctor who just with clunky annoying dialogue where as 14 and 15 is really not as magic
