“The man that can turn a army around at the mention of his name, doctor the word for healer and wise man throughout the universe.we get that word from you.”
And predator. That was always the most impactful for me. The most powerful, war-mongering super-army of a race in the universe and to them The Doctor is a predator
The Doctor is the line between good and evil - the embodiment of the phrase "the road to hell is paved with good intentions." The reasons the companions matter so much is that they make him walk the right side of that line.
I think the Doctor, more than anyone, shows us that good and evil are not a thing. The Doctor is not good. "Good men don't need rules. Today's not the day to find out why I have so many." Neither a good nor an evil man would say that. Good and evil are too simple. He's not a good man. But if "today is not the day to find out why I have so many" rules, then he already decided to not show his ruthless side today. Because if he did, if he acted like an evil man, took an eye for an eye, this would be the day they found out why he had so many rules. But today is not the day. Kindness is a thing I continue to learn from the Doctor, be it the current regeneration or the ones that came before. It's not mercy, it's not being good; there's something about sparing your enemy, something about stopping the war before it grows too high and too far... Beyond that, it's shady.
I don’t think the happiness is false per se, but he’s lived so long and accumulated a lot of pain over that time. Plus, for a time he thought he killed all the Time Lords. When Amy says to 11 that he just wants to be forgiven… the way Matt Smith says, “don’t we all?” Is profound. He should win an award just for the way he delivered that one line (to say nothing of the rest of his performance)
9, 11, and 12 especially, had such an undercurrent of anger and loathing that was hardly detectable. Sometimes I felt I was picking up on it through human instinct alone, rather than by anything they said or did. Credit to the actors.
9 showed us someone who was damaged, barely in control. 10 showed us just how brightly it burned when he suppressed it. 11 showed us just how cold he’d become behind the mask. 12… showed us someone learning to live without the mask.
The fact that Eleven can go from a over-energetic manchild to (in my opinion) the most intimidating incarnation of the Doctor in the span of a second is why Matt Smith is so incredible.
Also 10 was 900 something when we regenerated into 11 and by the time 11 regenerated he’s over 2000 years old he spent hundreds of years in the war of trenzaloere he is the oldest incarnarion ever of the doctor
“You gave me hope then took it away! That’s enough to make anyone dangerous.” That’s such a good quote. I love how Doctor Who can be applied to so many different people going through so many different situations if you can see the underlining themes. 11/10
Yeah. Immediately followed by “God knows what it will do to me” because the 11th Doctor is such a joyful and child-like character which is why it’s so jarring when he gets angry.
Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, and Peter Capaldi are the best incarnations of the Doctor they really understood the loss they had to portray.
He is both, and has played both. The Valeyard is the doctor a doctor made of all the evil in him, and this Valeyard went against the doctor. Two sides of a coin mirroring each other, seeing what they could do an be with merely a single change.
The doctor can’t escape they’re mind of what they have done in the past it is slowly eating them up but when he saves people or the whole world or creates peace it stops and that is why the doctor is a doctor they are healers to societies and the doctor teaches his patients about their problems and punishes the bacteria that is hurting his patients even know he may be wrong or they’re patients do something. wrong.They are the doctor sworn to never hurt they’re patients they will never forget what they have done but he will not stop to receive redemption they are the Doctor.
Eccelston mastered the anger, Tennant mastered the human side, Smith mastered the end of his patience, and Capaldi mastered just how old the doctor is.
That's an excellent summary. And they were all tempered by a good selection of companions that reflected them but also balanced them. Then it all went out with the terrible choices they made. Whittaker's doctor was written as a bumbling idiot and the ensemble cast was unable to be what a companion needs to be. So sad.
It reminds me of the Doctor's Daughter when what's his face shot Jenny. That was restraint, because he gave him every reason to do it, and he didn't. There is something so terrifying about people who have been broken down to the point they could betray everything they stand for, but they don't. To show restraint when you have been giving every reason to become the monster, that, that is terrifying.
@@danagalletta8349 That was such a bad line. Terrible choice of words. Especially ironic considering the context of the episode was several "generations" of people who had completely forgotten why they were even there in the first place even though only like a week had passed. Give them a couple generations (full length or otherwise) and they'll all be saying "a man who never would" as an excuse for anything and everything they don't want to do. A phrase of laziness and not tackling problems head-on. A phrase of inaction and letting things get bad before doing anything about it. A phrase of stagnation instead of positive change. So again, a truly terrible choice of words. Way too easily warped.
"The Anger of A Good Man is not the problem. Good men have too many rules." "Good men don't need rules, today is not the day to find out why I have so many... hmm?"

If memory serves most people just didn't like how Clara was written. 12 was kind of the opposite of 11 which kinda worked, angry on the outside, blunt, which I personally liked as a good change of pace.

Tennant is such a phenomenal actor so much show, he doesn't need to say anything, you can see it in his eyes, the emotion, the raw pain, I don't think anyone else could have achieved that.
David Tennant and Matt Smith were the most powerful doctors and gave you so many different emotions. They are the ones that can make you cry. You may stop watching Doctor Who, but you’ll never stop looking back, because of the people they made
@@greengrendel I made this post two years ago. Presently I entirely agree with you. I really like Peter Capaldi’s doctor and had a mix of strong emotions with him too
Mercy. Such a simple thought. Such a powerful force. Such a dangerous choice. So simple to think of mercy as forgiveness, so powerful it can be to change the fates of so many, and how much can be damned by kindness. A simple choice to stay one’s hand or let the blade fall seems so heavy when so many may die because one was spared on so kind a premise.
in my opinion this is how i see it. Christopher Eccleston for adding a sense of mystery's that we didn't know yet, David Tennant for the pure emotional scenes (weather it be sad, hatred or any other) , Matt Smith for his quotes, PURE intensity, and him being straight up intimidating, and Peter Capaldi for his speeches, his portrayal of longingness, and loneliness
oh my goodness this is amazing!! I love how you pulled together all the darker parts of the doctor, we don't get to see it often on the show so this is a really chilling and incredible edit to show that darker side!
Lines that send chills down your spine every time you hear them: “Good men don’t need rules. Today is not the day when you find out why I have so many” I’m so old now, I used to have so much mercy” “We understood why this doctor ran away from us and hid. He was being kind” “You gave me hope and took it away, and that’s enough to make anyone dangerous. God knows what it would do to me” “She wasn’t protecting me, she was protecting you. I’ve done my best, but I strongly advise you keep out of my way, you’ll find it’s a very small universe when I’m angry with you.” “We wanted to live forever, so the doctor made sure we did” And finally... “Don’t you think she looks tired?”
"Well we have to put something in there from the 13th Doctor..." "But there is nothing significant or good from the 13th Doctor" "Oh we will just toss a couple of clips of her in there an no one will notice."
I have given some thought about it... The Doctor. The word for healer and wise man... But taken a different way, it parallels his title of Destroyer. The Doctor: a person who exterminates those things that are a threat to their people. Things that are considered pests or invaders. Those beings that are so below them that they no longer have meaning to the Doctor. The viruses. The ailments. All are living beings. But if they become enough of a threat, the Doctor seeks to destroys them.
So true, for some he even tries to give them a chance to survive and go somewhere else but there aren't many that takes up on his offer. Those who don't do not live long.
I love the "Good men don't need rules" line. Brilliant. I do wish you'd turn the volume of the music down a bit though. I find it drowns out the speaking sometimes.
Edits like these really does show how the Doctor isn’t just this Madman in a box flying around space and time with his companions having fun. The Doctor’s character arc goes way deeper than that. He is chaotic, he is clever, and merciful. People who think Doctor Who is just about traveling through time and space going on fun little adventures don’t know about the pain and heartache that each character goes through.
if you really want to cry Laika was a 2 year old Russian street dog sent into space to die with the last words said to her forgive us by the scientists, she had only 1 meal and seven days of oxygen and died of overheating and stress
I wish they would've finished the one scene. The man held down, and the doctor holding a gun to his head. "I WOULD NEVER! I would never." His little speech on building a world on that fact. On a man who'd never. On mercy instead of war and killing. Just showing the gun to head paints a totally different picture from what he did
I saw "mercy" and instantly thought back to when Tenant's doctor had the Cybermen zerg-rush the Cult of Skarro to save Rose from them. The Doctor is hands down the most interesting TV character to exist so far.
There was something close to a moment of fear and anger in the most recent episode (9) and I cannot wait for 13 to finally get her Stonehenge/sun god/ zygon inversion speech
This is fantastic! It perfectly shows the anger of the Doctor. Honestly, the line about the Doctor hiding behind that name actually really got me in this context. It makes me excited to see what's next for 13.
Being an anime fan makes me forget how great this show is this man has gone through so much hell and kept keeping the innocent safe even if it ment losing his own life and he never achieved it through harsh means he always tried to show the better outcome but at the same time he could be ruthless and dangerous just goes to show u don’t need a weapon to be a threat
"A life this long dyou understand what it is, it's a battlefield like this one and it's empty because everyone else has fallen" I feel is one of the many underrated quote from the whole show
God I need to rewatch the whole show again including the new season. 13 has such a special place in the overrall arc of the character and it gets more interesting every time I reexamine it
Great compilation of clips. Only one I wish you would've included would be the one with 10, 11 and the doctor of war, in which 10 was disappointed at what 11 had become, and the doctor of war in both.
No matter what you think, mercy it's such a small thing really. So small most times it goes unnoticed. But to the person spared from such mercy. There is no bigger moment in their lives. For some of those it means nothing. But for so many more that have had mercy shown it changes everything. And sometimes that is all it takes to change the world for good or bad, hopefully for the better. With mercy sometimes friends become enemies. And sometimes enemies become friends. But as the 12th doctor said said "Friends,enemies I'm not sure any of that matters now. So long as there is mercy."
The Doctor has mourned every life in the universe a hundred times over, and knows it will never stop. You cannot hurt him more than he already hurts. And if you try, he will teach you pain in return.
well, that's literally what the War Doctor was during the Time War. he only time-locked everything after being a ruthlessly effecient soldier for a couple centuries
Everyone says each Doctor is good at one specific emotion or aspect. But every single one. 9,10,11,12 and 13 are all masters at anger and mercy. The two things every Doctor can do
I never would, have you got that? I never would ... When you start this new world-this world of Human and Hath-remember that. Make the foundation of this society “a man who never would”.
Outstanding edit - clips like these show the true power of The Doctor and why (s)he has such a dedicated following. When the writers, directors and actors get it right it can move a world. And you got it so right.
Carry a gun but never fire the bullet, carry the sword but never strike, carry a shield and always use it. Train with a gun but never fire it, train with a sword but never strike the killing blow. Showing you have the ability but showing you have restraint at the last second shows how powerful you really are. Let them see your power, but never at full force. That's what scares a man.
" you gave me hope and then you took it away, that's enough to make anyone dangerous. God knows what it will do to me" Doctor Who has the best quotes. 10th and 111th hafta be my favorite but they are all unique and love them all
when a man suffers so much he becomes so much with rage that he is becomes an embodiment of good that looks like evil , he becomes merciless despite having so much mercy. it all happened because he had so much hope that he could not bear the weight of falling to his failure.
I expect if the Doctor didn't have a human travelling with him, he would likely be the worse of the Time lords, a monster in the truest sense of the word, a single being roaming across all of creation leaving a path of destruction and chaos in his wake, then the creatures of the universe would fear the name, "DOCTOR" for a very different reason!
It’s little things like 4:19 that are the reason doctor 11 is my favourite one. A playful happy and enjoyable man on the outside that walks like he is death. Like a full galactic army facing him is nothing. He walks like an immortal man which is even more impressive given at that point he thinks he’s out of regenerations.
"The Doctor lives his life in darker hues, day upon day, and he will have other names before the end. The Storm. The Beast. The Valeyard" "He’s like fire and ice. He’s like the night and the storm in the heart of the sun. He’s ancient and forever. He burns at the center of time and he can see the turn of the universe. And… he’s wonderful." Those lines just show how dark and amazing the doctor can be. The doctor brings the darkness and the monsters but he also brings the light and the hope. He walks straight into the shadows without hesitation just to save people, not because he wants to be better than the rest, not because he wants to win, not because he has to, but just because he's kind... so very kind. Out of the dark.... and into the light...
He always strikes me as a guy who just wants to see cool things all around time and space with beings who interest him, but bad things keep existing anywhere he goes. To a point that what I think he is actually searching for is any place and time in all of existence where there was just nothing bad happening to anyone and in all his lives he hasn't found one.
Wish the way this makes me feel watching this lasted forever could probs do the world some good but then reality hits and you realise how life sucks and doesnt work that way

This - THIS is why I watch Doctor Who. The underlying grief and anger that is covered so beautifully by false happiness - it is breathtaking....
I don't think it's a false happiness, but a happiness constantly challenged by the brutal darkness of the universe.
The Doctor puts on a facade of happiness, but every now and then when he has a good friend by his side, he can feel it for real.

“She wasn’t protecting me, she was protecting you. I’ve done my best, but I strongly advise you keep out of my way, you’ll find it’s a very small universe when I’m angry with you.”
“We wanted to live forever, so the doctor made sure we did”
And finally...
“Don’t you think she looks tired?”
You gave me hope and then took it away, that's enough to make anyone dangerous. God knows what it might do to me.
That's also one
You are right tho
"Well we have to put something in there from the 13th Doctor..."
"But there is nothing significant or good from the 13th Doctor"
"Oh we will just toss a couple of clips of her in there an no one will notice."
Thank you for including Christopher Eccleston. Never skip nine.
I have given some thought about it... The Doctor. The word for healer and wise man... But taken a different way, it parallels his title of Destroyer.
The Doctor: a person who exterminates those things that are a threat to their people. Things that are considered pests or invaders. Those beings that are so below them that they no longer have meaning to the Doctor. The viruses. The ailments. All are living beings. But if they become enough of a threat, the Doctor seeks to destroys them.
So true, for some he even tries to give them a chance to survive and go somewhere else but there aren't many that takes up on his offer. Those who don't do not live long.
I love the "Good men don't need rules" line. Brilliant.
I do wish you'd turn the volume of the music down a bit though. I find it drowns out the speaking sometimes.
"you want to be forgiven,
don't we all"

Edits like these really does show how the Doctor isn’t just this Madman in a box flying around space and time with his companions having fun. The Doctor’s character arc goes way deeper than that. He is chaotic, he is clever, and merciful. People who think Doctor Who is just about traveling through time and space going on fun little adventures don’t know about the pain and heartache that each character goes through.
Dang.. who's cuttin them onions.
Oh sorry about that, that was me
@@connyramos858 I should have known it was you.....
😊😊
It’s been so long...
if you really want to cry Laika was a 2 year old Russian street dog sent into space to die with the last words said to her forgive us by the scientists, she had only 1 meal and seven days of oxygen and died of overheating and stress
I wish they would've finished the one scene. The man held down, and the doctor holding a gun to his head.
"I WOULD NEVER! I would never." His little speech on building a world on that fact. On a man who'd never. On mercy instead of war and killing. Just showing the gun to head paints a totally different picture from what he did
I absolutely love that scene because he was given every reason to pull the trigger.
But he didn't, and that is terrifying.
I saw "mercy" and instantly thought back to when Tenant's doctor had the Cybermen zerg-rush the Cult of Skarro to save Rose from them.
The Doctor is hands down the most interesting TV character to exist so far.
This is the definition of no u
I actually thought of "all the people who died because of MY MERCY!"
Matt and David will always be my favourite doctors;)
**spoilers**
Turns out they gave 13 a full season of happy, not too dark, fun adventures because they were about to UTTERLY DESTROY HER come 2020
Yep XD
can you explain pl0x
You might want to watch spyfall parts 1 and 2 then rethink that.
There was something close to a moment of fear and anger in the most recent episode (9) and I cannot wait for 13 to finally get her Stonehenge/sun god/ zygon inversion speech
Eden Sanden dont get your hopes up lmao
This is fantastic! It perfectly shows the anger of the Doctor. Honestly, the line about the Doctor hiding behind that name actually really got me in this context. It makes me excited to see what's next for 13.
‘You want to be forgiven?
Don’t we all?’
Being an anime fan makes me forget how great this show is this man has gone through so much hell and kept keeping the innocent safe even if it ment losing his own life and he never achieved it through harsh means he always tried to show the better outcome but at the same time he could be ruthless and dangerous just goes to show u don’t need a weapon to be a threat
This is beautiful! I loved how you fit all the doctors together so seamlessly. I loved it.
I always love how you sneak the Big Finish plays in there
"A life this long dyou understand what it is, it's a battlefield like this one and it's empty because everyone else has fallen" I feel is one of the many underrated quote from the whole show
Amy "You want to be forgiven"
10th "Don't we all?"
Damn that hits
God I need to rewatch the whole show again including the new season. 13 has such a special place in the overrall arc of the character and it gets more interesting every time I reexamine it
Ive been on a marathon myself.
Just start 11s run.
I feel like they should’ve had Capaldi’s “and when I close my eyes” line in there
Great compilation of clips. Only one I wish you would've included would be the one with 10, 11 and the doctor of war, in which 10 was disappointed at what 11 had become, and the doctor of war in both.
No matter what you think, mercy it's such a small thing really. So small most times it goes unnoticed. But to the person spared from such mercy. There is no bigger moment in their lives. For some of those it means nothing. But for so many more that have had mercy shown it changes everything. And sometimes that is all it takes to change the world for good or bad, hopefully for the better. With mercy sometimes friends become enemies. And sometimes enemies become friends.
But as the 12th doctor said said "Friends,enemies I'm not sure any of that matters now. So long as there is mercy."
The Doctor has mourned every life in the universe a hundred times over, and knows it will never stop. You cannot hurt him more than he already hurts. And if you try, he will teach you pain in return.
Bro imagine this being the trailer. BRUH I WOULD HAVE BEEN HOOKED
God damn thats a good edit
This would have made a good trailer
If the Doctor had no rules and stayed on Gallifrey, he would be one of the most proficient soldiers of war
well, that's literally what the War Doctor was during the Time War. he only time-locked everything after being a ruthlessly effecient soldier for a couple centuries
Everyone says each Doctor is good at one specific emotion or aspect. But every single one. 9,10,11,12 and 13 are all masters at anger and mercy. The two things every Doctor can do
This video is my absolute favorite Doctor Who compilation. I always will have an urge to rewatch this incredible video. I get chills every time!
Fantastic tribute as always! You really deserve more views!
I love this song and it fits perfectly!
Song is "The way" by Zack Hemsey for those who were wondering
I found this the other day and now I cant stop watching it omg I get chills from this
a little high and 3am. knew it would be depressing with the title of "mercy" but wasn't prepared for that much sadness
Some of the doctor who lines are great and all together in a video is amazing, it just gives such a new perspective to the show and when you watch it.
This gave me chills and was perfect balance of All the doctors
I never would, have you got that? I never would ... When you start this new world-this world of Human and Hath-remember that. Make the foundation of this society “a man who never would”.
"Even the word doctor is false,your real name is hidden it burn in the star's in the cascade of medusa her self" whats a quote
Mercy.
Outstanding edit - clips like these show the true power of The Doctor and why (s)he has such a dedicated following. When the writers, directors and actors get it right it can move a world.
And you got it so right.
This hurts in all the right places.
I don’t know why I put myself through watches these types of videos, they just make me really really sad. I just want to hug the doctor so bad bro. AH
I SALUTE YOU...for including All the doctors...Including 11..and making such an awesome edit ...Damn...🙌👏👏👏
One of the best doctor who video I have seen
This video is exceptional! I’m blown away but the editing and beauty to it, just wow! AMAZING😱
Chills. Just chills. Amazingly done
matt smiths doctor and tennets both had mental breakdowns at some point in the show
It's videos like this that make me realise how my dark past will follow me forever
Carry a gun but never fire the bullet, carry the sword but never strike, carry a shield and always use it. Train with a gun but never fire it, train with a sword but never strike the killing blow. Showing you have the ability but showing you have restraint at the last second shows how powerful you really are. Let them see your power, but never at full force. That's what scares a man.
So well put together I’ve actually watched this a few times now
Indeed , great British and english drama . What a physicist the doctor is .
" you gave me hope and then you took it away, that's enough to make anyone dangerous. God knows what it will do to me"
Doctor Who has the best quotes. 10th and 111th hafta be my favorite but they are all unique and love them all
The Doctor the one being in the whole universe you never ever want to cross.
when a man suffers so much he becomes so much with rage that he is becomes an embodiment of good that looks like evil , he becomes merciless despite having so much mercy. it all happened because he had so much hope that he could not bear the weight of falling to his failure.
> "This is what happens when you've travelled alone for too long."
Truer words were never said, he needs his companions to ground him.
I expect if the Doctor didn't have a human travelling with him, he would likely be the worse of the Time lords, a monster in the truest sense of the word, a single being roaming across all of creation leaving a path of destruction and chaos in his wake, then the creatures of the universe would fear the name, "DOCTOR" for a very different reason!
There's a reason the War Doctor doesn't have a companion.
Ok, so now I have to go back and watch them all again.
Everyone forgets we can only carry so much, give so much before it all goes and the person you started with is nothing but a memory of what’s lost
U live long enough the idea mercy becomes numb. Like a bad joke, cause you can’t feel it anymore
It’s little things like 4:19 that are the reason doctor 11 is my favourite one. A playful happy and enjoyable man on the outside that walks like he is death. Like a full galactic army facing him is nothing. He walks like an immortal man which is even more impressive given at that point he thinks he’s out of regenerations.
All of these videos are amazing done. It reminds me how doctor who is more that just the travelling.
"The Doctor lives his life in darker hues, day upon day, and he will have other names before the end. The Storm. The Beast. The Valeyard" "He’s like fire and ice. He’s like the night and the storm in the heart of the sun. He’s ancient and forever. He burns at the center of time and he can see the turn of the universe. And… he’s wonderful." Those lines just show how dark and amazing the doctor can be. The doctor brings the darkness and the monsters but he also brings the light and the hope. He walks straight into the shadows without hesitation just to save people, not because he wants to be better than the rest, not because he wants to win, not because he has to, but just because he's kind... so very kind. Out of the dark.... and into the light...
All of the edits like these send chills down my spine
‘dOnT ThrEaTeN Me’ lol ok Jodie
this got me in my feels but in only 32 seconds in. but when favors said “never carrying a gin” the shows 12 carrying a gun i laughed n i feel bad.
FINALLY! A DW edit that uses 8 audio!!!! Thank you for your service!
Well that was better than the entirety of the last 2 series of Dr. Woke.
I'm not crying, I got dust in my eye
Welp didn't feel like crying tonight BUT HERE WE ARE!
😢😢😢
He always strikes me as a guy who just wants to see cool things all around time and space with beings who interest him, but bad things keep existing anywhere he goes. To a point that what I think he is actually searching for is any place and time in all of existence where there was just nothing bad happening to anyone and in all his lives he hasn't found one.
Wish the way this makes me feel watching this lasted forever could probs do the world some good but then reality hits and you realise how life sucks and doesnt work that way
You have done an amazing job, you should be very proud of your hard work.
I love how love and monsters even got in this
