"Capt Jack seems really flirty" Ne'er a truer statement spoken.
🤣🤣 He sure does have his ways!
According to a friend of mine who has met the actor in person, he’s just as charming as his character.
@@joeb918 He really is. I met him recently, and he was such a delight.
He flirts with everyone and when you find out who he really is it will blow your mind. 😊
@@SeeJay81he’s fantastic 😊
"Before the war I was a father and a grandfather, now I am neither but still The Doctor" Without going into to detail, because we don't know all the details, this line from the Human Doctor is using another character to say what our Doctor is feeling.
Always makes me tear up.
The gas mask effect on Dr. Constantine still creeps me out to this day! Really good, especially for 2005!
Richard Wilson was great in this.
It was apparently gonna be more creepy with bone breaking sound effects but the BBC requested it’s removal as they considered the audio to be too scary especially for younger viewers, many of the people who watched it early said that scene with Dr Constantine should be removed entirely but the higher ups refused as they understood what Russell T Davies and Steven Moffat were doing and appreciated the family friendly horror the scene presented
Same with That One Scene in The Planet Of The Ood (you know the one, but I won't go into any more detail for fear of spoilers lol)
"Are you my mummy?" This is the start of how creepy/thriller aspects of some episodes can get. But after watching it all unfold shows how great the storytelling is with the series. And yes Capt Jack has his charisma maxed out to 💯
Ah Jack Harkness, I had somewhat forgotten they introduced him this early. He’s a … multifaceted character, but he exudes flirtatiousness indeed, especially early on.
They really did introduce him early....
"Well she's safe now. Unless the guy's a weirdo."
Yes... and yes, yes he is. 😂
I was absolutely terrified of this as a kid. Great to see that its original impact endures after so many years for new viewers!
Back in the days of 📞 landlines and answering machines my kids took to phoning and leaving the message “are you my mummy?” They thought it was funny.
@@CrankyGrandmathat is pretty funny! I do remember a lot of teachers getting fed up of hearing it too. It was quite the phenomenon when you look back, wasn't it?! 🤣
One thing I want to mention before you watch Part 2, AKA "The Doctor Dances:"
There was a long period after the original "Doctor Who" series was canceled in the 1980s when all the fandom had to work with was a series of ambitious novels called "Doctor Who: the New Adventures." Trying to give us a more "mature" look at the Doctor led to a lot of very dark stories. Many times, we'd meet a cast of appealing guest characters only to watch them die, watch EVERYBODY die (except the Doctor and his often-devastated companions) with the "happy ending" consisting of the fact that the villain was also killed.
We fans endured years of "Doctor Who" where "EVERYBODY DIES!" And that's the environment into which the first year of the new series was released. Just keep that thought in the back of your mind when you watch the next episode.
Growing up with the 80's serials with the Daleks, creepy clowns and vampires, I never thought Doctor Who could frighten me again. Now I'm terrified of gas masks thanks to this story.
One of the best episodes of Dr Who ever made for me. A great story, really creepy, and a brilliant cliff-hanger ending. Plus, the brilliant production values creating such atmosphere, ominous German airships hovering in the night sky and menacing German Luftwafers, whatever they are, roaring past. Pure Dr Who. A second outstanding episode in a row. Hurry up and look at the rest, Jules! Your reactions are delightful! By the way, what do you mean, small thing? Your reactions are great and what you do here is no small thing. Your reactions and enjoyment of episodes here means a lot to Who fans. Myself included.
Terry, thank you!! That's so lovely of you to say. I wouldn't be able to continue the videos if it weren't for people watching them, so we are all in it together ☺️
I met John Barrowman back before COVID at a big convention here in my state. Even got him to sign a poster, but it wasn't for Doctor Who. It was for when he did "Beauty and the Beast" on stage in London. His eyes went wide and lit up when he saw the poster. He said that the poster was the first time they showed the Beast in his human form on a poster for the show.
Wow 💜 that is super cool!!
This is one of the best episodes of the season. The empty child is still creepy to this day, "Are you my mummy?". Great Steven Moffat episode.
Are you my mummy is scary as anything. I love when Rose tells the girl that she’s from London too and it’s got a great future.
I feel like i'm the only one who was never really scared of this episode
Fond memories of this episode. The dance with Capt. Jack and Rose on top of the ship in front of Big Ben is so iconic. I manage to get a photo at a con, dancing with Billie Piper while I cosplayed Capt. Jack to recreate the scene. One of my favorites. Super creepy episode.
Woah... that's amazing!!
I had the exact opposite hilariously enough. I was dressed as Rose Tyler (but from a later episode) and met John Barrowman. When I went to get a photo with him he held out and a hand and said, "come dance with me, Rose Tyler" and swung me into his arms. It was my first con. My teenage self was so happy. 😂
That was such a lovely intro you did! This is my favourite story of season 1, I've been looking forward to this. Hope you enjoy the conclusion in the next episode as much as I did when I first watched it
Ditto! Well said.
Thank you 🥰🥰
To me, the empty child is the scariest zombie in media. Other Zombies decompose over time so logically they wouldn't be around long. The Empty child doesn't decompose and can pass zombification along through touch not bite so its even scarer. As someone who is terrifyed of zombies, these guys creep me out lol. Loving the reactions! Gives me something to look forward too every week!💛
Yay! I'm glad to hear it! Have a wonderful weekend 😀
Fun fact, at 14:11 this building is the Albion hospital, that’s the same hospital that the pig pilot gets taken to in the aliens in London episode in 2006
OH!! Very cool!!
All the time, energy and heart that you put into your videos shines though, Juliette. It's always a pleasure to spend time with you. And ah yes, The Empty Child, one of the Dr Who episodes that still haunts me all these years later. "Why I am so scared of that little boy" - Because you're smart :) Looking forward to you watching the follow up next week.
Thank you 🥹🥹 you have been nothing but wonderful and positive and full of happiness! You make it a pleasure for me to be here to share these videos with someone like you 💜
This is where I realized that the reboot was actually special. There's something super creepy about gas masks.
Jules, Time Lord is a title a person receives on Gallifrey after completing a course of rigorous study...think PHD. Not everyone on Gallifrey is a Time Lord. Upon completion Time Lords choose a ''screen name'' which they will be known by...he chose ''Doctor''. Nobody can know the real name of a Time Lord because then its possible for them to assert some control over the TL. Hence the name of the show, ''Doctor WHO?''. Its kind of a running joke through the show. It's the most important question in the universe, one that must never be answered.
Anyone - "And who are you?''
Doctor - ''The Doctor''...
Abyone - ''Doctor WHO?''
Doctor - ''Just the doctor''.
The first time I watched this episode was on a plane and I was absolutely terrified and desperately trying not to let it show to anyone around me, which probably made it even more effective. Also personally I love Captain Jack Harkness
When I first saw this episode, Rose kept going on about "spock" and showing her some "spock". Mr. Spock is one of the iconic characters from Star Trek and I thought, surely Doctor Who is not referencing Star Trek. I thought it was some kind of English slang I wasn't familiar with🤣. Of course, I later realized that she WAS referencing Star Trek, which was pretty cool and not the last time the show would do that
It was actually really cool of her to reference Star Trek haha! I've never seen it, but of course I have heard of Spock 😊
Well the quote of the episode surely has to be “Are you my mummy?”
You are such a lovely creator it’s a joy to watch.
Thank you so much 🥰
Two bits of trivia to share:
First, the name of the hospital: Albion. It was there before...or, actually, after. That was where they took the pig decoy the Slitheen created a few episodes back, and several decades later.
Second, the quick nod to "Star Trek." Gotta love the quick nod to "Star Trek"!
Whilst you are thanking us for the comments, I thought I'd add one of my own. Loving your Doctor Who reactions. You are charming and easy to watch, and it's become a highlight of my week. Already looking forward to the next episode. Love revisiting these old episodes. Thank you for all the hard work you put in.
Wow, thank you so much ☺️ it definitely is a two way street though! I wouldn't be able to do it without everyone here cheering me on and being so awesome 🥰
Seeing the singer on stage in this episode made me recall the time when I went to see 'Doctor Who: The Ultimate Adventure'. It was a musical stage play which had a short run in 1989 and stared Jon Pertwee, who reprised his role as the 3rd Doctor from the classic TV series. When I saw it, it was playing at the Wimbledon Theatre in London, UK. It was amazing to see the actor 'who I consider my 1st Doctor' up on stage with the Daleks and a TARDIS. Sadly he didn't sing and neither did the Daleks, that was left to the rest of the cast. I'd love to see another Doctor Who stage musical someday.
Wow... that would have been amazing!!
John Barrowman as Captain Jack is great!
My mom was a huge fan.
She died a couple of weeks before Fugitive Of The Judoon aired..... 😔
I'm so sorry for your loss 🫂
@@julesreacts 🫶🤗
It's fine... If you could use that word.
That episode I mentioned aired early 2020.... But don't keep anything in mind. It could be a potential spoiler.
It's gonna take a LOOOOONG while until you get to the episode, I mentioned anyway. I just wanna say that it was a pretty good episode.
And I wish I could have watched it with my mom still.
We used to watch Doctor Who episodes together regularly and kind of ritually. 😅
Some episodes were very good to watch on Christmas or New Year's, as we did.
I'll tell you which episodes, once you get there. 😊
It's just sad. From one day to another she just wasn't there anymore.
The last episodes we watched together were the series 2 finale. 😅
That's not too far off for you. We had only watched them once together before and my mom had forgotten all about them. So she ended up loving them again very much.
And then, only 4 days later she just didn't wake up anymore. At age only 63.... 😔
It is very astute of you to think that Jack was from the same group of folks as the Doctor. He even used something like a sonic screwdriver to turn on the music they were dancing to. And, in Rose's defence, Jack is a con man and con artists are known to be quite the charmers and charismatic, which Jack is being portrayed as. And here, the darker nature of this Doctor series rears it's ugly mask! This was very creepy on first watch! Especially since it usually came on at night! I wonder if the shenanigans between Jack and Rose were meant to offset the darker nature of the empty child! So fun to hear your comments and especially to see your reactions! Can't wait for the next episode!
Jack just seemed similar, but not... if that makes sense! Able to time travel, he has his own sonic device... it's like a long lost bestie 😅
(When Capt. Jack saves Rose) "She's safe now. Unless this guy is a weirdo."
Both might be true.
This is one of the creepiest episodes of the series. I'm glad to see you're enjoying this, you're in for a wild ride with this show.
I enjoy your Doctor Who reactions. Went back and watched the Firefly reactions too after I found your channel. You seem very sweet and you put a lot of thought into character and story, which I enjoy. In this series in particular I like how you can clearly disagree with Rose's decisions but also not judge them and continue to enjoy the character. Re: this two-parter in particular, it is often considered a highlight of this season, as well as one of Doctor Who's better done horror episodes. I remember showing it to a relative when she was in her teens. She was usually pretty cool, but this episode had her crying scared.
Hallie, thank you so much lovely 💜
Another note... Albion Hospital is the same hospital the pig alien was took to in Aliens of London.
CAPTAIN JACK!!!!
Oh thank you so much!! That is incredibly sweet of you to say and I'm so lucky to have someone so positive and energetic here on the channel to follow along with the journey ☺️💜 I hope you have a lovely weekend!
@@julesreacts likewise to you as well, Jules! Unfortunately, the situation here on Maui has recently hit a frightening circumstance, but life is rebuilding with the help of other carrying neighbors and institutions. Thank you so much for your kind words as well. @julesreacts likewise to you as well, Jules!

@@johnrob3215 if I have to, then you don't get it.
Oh no, you're in Maui? I'm so sorry to hear what's been happening there. It's truly devastating 😔 I hope you and yours are okay.
One thing I really appreciate on a rewatch is the scene with Rose and Jack dancing. Rose seems so smitten, like she's barely paying attention and Jack, an obvious con man, has charm turned up to 11. However, later on it's revealed that Rose was very much listening during that scene. Of course she'd be a bit smitten, but she is not stupid. She knows Jack is up to something and pretends not to even be aware of the "business side of things," only to call him out later when the Doctor confronts him.
This is my favorite 2-parter for Eccleston's Doctor. Nothing more to say until the next episode.
When I first watched this show I thought it was just soooo cheesy, but kept watching as a friend was insisting that it's better than I was giving it credit for. this was the episode (well this and part 2 of this one) when I figured out why this show is actually brilliant. Since then I've been able to go back and see that spark in the earlier episodes of the season too.
Sometimes a little bit of cheese makes it all the more fun 😋
This was a very good ep and I can’t wait for your reaction to the next one. Rose was smart to play along with Jack until they met the doctor. I think Rose has changed a lot since she saw all the aliens at the end of the earth. Now she’s all in and almost picking up behaviors from the doctor. She’s bold and adventurous. We’ve seen that develop in her through the series. Her character develops naturally within the course of the season. As far as this being creepy, I’d say the Dickens episode was as well. Doctor Who can be scary and funny and adventurous all at once.
It's been so long since I've watched this, I kinda forgot how charming Christopher Ecelson can be
He's amazing 🥰
That was such a sweet intro - we love seeing your Doctor Who reactions, too! This story is one of my favourites of the first series. Keep an eye on the writer of this one. ;) Looking forward to seeing how you enjoy part 2 of this story!
Thank you 🐱🥹
Ohhh Jewel this 2 parter episode were my favourite episodes of the Ninth Doctor. It was really creepy and exciting! ❤
That's amazing to know, Dan 💜 it's such a good one!
'Flirty'. That is one way of describing Captain Jack I suppose lol, personally I would go with lecherous. Rose does like the attention wherever she gets it from.
This 2-parter, Captain Jack being a perv aside, is one of my favourite stories of Doctor Who. I do love the dark and creepy ones and this is right up there.
Super creepy!! All you have to do is say the title of the episode and I hear that little kid. *shudder
But I love the introduction of Captain Jack. (And yes, flirt is an EXCELLENT way to describe him, lol)
Can't wait to see your reaction to part 2! 😄 Hope you're having a great week, Jules!
Flirt is his middle name 🤭
Thank you so much for your well wishes! I'm surprised tomorrow is Friday already, but other than that I can't complain too much. I hope yours has been good too ☺️💜
@@julesreacts Doing well, thank you so much! 😊
This episode and its part 2 are my favorite story in Doctor Who ever. I really appreciate your taking the time to share your reaction. (Don't worry, there's plenty to come that's just as good, but if forced to choose an actual favorite, this is it.)
They are brilliant, slightly scary but with a very beautiful ending
I first came across your channel with your first doctor who reaction, and am also watching your buffy reactions and I really enjoy watching your content and seeing someone enjoy these shows that I’ve loved for most of my life. Thank you for all of your videos and all you do! They really brighten up my day.
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad to hear that 💜
Yes that little hut of corrugated iron is their shelter ^=^ They were called Anderson Shelters and they were very effective actually at deflecting bombs. They saved a lot of lives even though they dont look like much. They were later replaced by Morrison Shelters, because people didn't really like staying in cold dark hovels all night :P
The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances are one of my favorite two-part episodes in the whole series! It's just so memorable, creepy, fun, and wholesome!
.It's definitely fun to watch someone experiencing the show for the first time. I was a fan of Dr. Who back n the 80s (when the Tom Baker episodes started showing up on PBS) and was delighted when the reboot happened and turned out to be good. Glad you're enjoying the series and hope you stick with it; it only gets more outrageous as it goes (usually in a good way)!
One of my favorite episodes. Still gives me goosebumps. Onto part 2.
Moffat. 💙this brilliant, brilliant writer. This is one of THE best Doctor Who episodes. Period. I'm so glad you're here now!
I'm looking forward to seeing more by Moffat if this one is any indication of what we can expect. Very good indeed!!
The nightmares I had as a 9 year old from watching this 🙈!
Lovely to see another reaction 🥰 can't wait for more and to see you discovering even more of the series for the first time.
Your time and energy that you put into your videos does not go unnoticed 💖
Thank you 🥹🥹 I'm so glad that you enjoy the videos as much as I enjoy watching the episodes! It's such a lovely way to let go of reality for a little while and let our troubles float away... until gas masks get involved 😱
@@julesreacts My pleasure 🥰 and omg yes 😱😂
Doctor Who has a lot of entities like that, that kind of bend the normal and everyday into something terrifying.
A child in a gas mask in 1940's London is a regular sight. The same way the shop mannequins were that you saw in the first episode.
Can't wait for next Wednesday 💖
oh yay the nightmare fuel episode. Still makes my hair stand up ! Also, of course we appreciate the b'jeebus out of these videos ! I bet it's different for everyone but for ME, it's that feeling of showing a new friend a new thing and getting to have some portion of that experience :P I don't exist in an area that's agreeable to just randomly finding new mates. So this is a happy time of day where I can enjoy a thing in a similar-ish setting.
This is the high water mark of series one for me, and a highlight of the modern series. This Moffatt guy can write, eh? One to keep an eye on for the future I reckon. Great reaction, can't wait to see how you go with the next one.
Thank you so much 💓 a few people have mentioned Moffat and I'm sorry to say but this is the first I've noticed him. It was a wonderful episode though! I'm looking forward to more by him ☺️
@@julesreacts It's his first real script for the series, but I'm sure you'll notice his name the more you watch.
Haven't watched these in so long and it feels wonderful to have my childhood passion for the show legitimised again. Such a fantastically written series. Still have my DW card collection somewhere.
Knowing that homeless or parentless children probably had to do that in real life,as in sneak in houses for food,bit heartbreaking,i heard the story about the wee brothers after a bombing raid,thought a chicken had been blown onto their roof but when it was taken down it was part of a large womans arm 😯
Oh my goodness... that's so sad... 😔
There aren't that many monsters in Doctor Who that would make me hide behind the sofa but this is one of them or at least it was when I was a kid. I'm not a massive fan of the way Steven Moffat handled his series but man he can write incredible solo episodes
7:40 "She's saved now . . . unless this guy is a weirdo." Even if she _is_ safe, he's might _still_ be a weirdo! 😆
haha true!!
Just a short note to let you know that I appreciate the work you put into these reactions. What you do matters - thanks!
Richard, thank you! I appreciate that a lot... it means so much to me 💜
This episode hit differently it was terrifying yet interesting this is what makes doctor who so unique
This is one of those episodes that really brings the mystery. Captain Jack Harkness is like Captain Jack Sparrow. it is always 3 words, and a "lovable scoundrel" as well. He's definitely a flirt. Psychic paper is... an invention everyone can use... if they can get it.
This was a great season cliffhanger... but it was a long wait for us between seasons.
The next episode is fun too.
Glad to see you still enjoying this journey.
Ah HAH! Captain Jack... I should have known the same name could mean another cheeky scallywag! Love it! I'm looking forward to seeing more of him... and I think Rose is too 🤣
Your criticism that Rose was acting out of character here was spot-on! Writer Steven Moffat definitely mis-handled her character in this episode IMHO. Rose may be impulsive, but she is certainly not captivated by men on the grounds of superficial physical attraction, nor is Captain Jack even her type. She's a sensitive soul. You get it! :-) Moffat doesn't always understand women very well and sometimes ascribes male qualities to them, such as impulsive physical sexual attraction. But still, he's a darned good writer and created gems like Blink, Girl In The Fireplace, plus my favourite ever series of Doctor Who (the 11th Doctor's first series).
This was the episode that really cemented my love for this show when I was in my early teens. Sure I was young and it was scary, but the transformation of Dr Constantine still holds up today in the effects department and when I first saw that as a kid it honestly just blew me away, I was fascinated. Still love this episode, it's a fantastic one and introduces maybe the best secondary character in the whole show, Captain Jack.
The morph of the gas mask... BIG NO 😱😱
Captain Jack, Moffett, and getting to the real weird stuff. It really keeps getting better from here (not that the previous episodes aren't great!).
I've been eagerly awaiting this since I had realized this was the next episode. Its a classic creepy new who episode and we meet Jack Harkness; the incorrigible flirty bi/pan guy.
Sure he's a time traveller but comparing him to The Doctor is to compare a donkey driven cart to a luxury car that can turn into a spaceship with a pool. Or perhaps it could be said he is akin to a monkey strapping itself to a rocket.
"Before the war, I was a father and a grandfather. Now I am neither, but I am still a doctor."
"Yeah, I know the feeling"
FUN FACT: The very first Doctor travelled with his Granddaughter, Susan.
Oh, wow... 💜
Captain Jack is basically the Han Solo of Doctor Who
Been waiting for you to watch this one...i had nightmares for a week waiting for the next episode. And that was in 2005 when you had no choice but to wait
I grew up on this show and this was one of three stories to properly scare me so great to see your reaction and can't wait for part 2
Thank you!! It was such a great first introduction to something a little creepy 😊
this two parter is my favourite Doctor Who story ever. it's so well written and so creepy. the way all the story threads come together, it's just perfect. love your reaction also!
Thank you so much!! It's so creepy, yet really sad at the same time 😥
I did warn you this would be a scary one! I may have mentioned in a previous comment that while your videos usually pop up shortly before I go to bed on Wednesday evening UK time, I save them until Thursday mornings (being pretty much the first thing I do after getting up) and this is definitely not one to watch before bed! I actually find myself turning away from the screen (well going to a different tab) during Dr. Constantine's transformation, and it was originally going to even worse before they toned down the sound effects for being a bit 'much'.
This is a great two-parter. It was actually one of the ones I rewatched recently (which helped 'prepare' me for the scarier bits) and this episode sets everything up really nicely for the next one, which you'll appreciate when you get to it. Even within this episode itself you have something as small as Jack using what were clearly high-tech binoculars to spot Rose helped hint that he was not who he seemed, and a bit you didn't show when he had Rose in the beam and mentioned her mobile phone (though the whole beam thing made it obvious by that point anyway).
Oh, and to pass the time between your Doctor Who videos I've actually started watching your Buffy videos (though just the first couple so far). It's a very different experience to this as I'm just as unfamiliar with it as you (aside from watching the first two episodes as a feature length premiere when it started), so I'm genuinely curious to know what happens, in contrast to this show where I know so much both past and present that it's fun looking ahead to what I'm most looking forward to seeing you react to and enjoy hearing your thoughts and predictions knowing how accurate or wide of the mark they are.
Oh that's amazing to know you've started watching Buffy and enjoying it as well! A few people mentioned in the comments that the people behind the newer series of Who liked Buffy as well and were somewhat inspired by it when it came to this show!
I have to agree with you on the gas mask... there are some things I do not want to see and that's one of them 😱
Always enjoy watching your reactions, even if I don't always comment! Yes, "flirty" is definitely the word for Jack, and I think Rose is still a bit governed by her hormones. According to the Doctor Who Annual that came out in 2005, she had spent some months living in a bedsit with a boy (not Mickey!) before they broke up and she returned to live with her mother, got back together with her old boyfriend Mickey, and had to take the job at Henrik's Department Store to pay off the debt she'd accumulated. Then there's Adam. So, I don't think she's above having her head turned by a handsome con man...
John, thank you so much! It's wonderful to have you here. Commenting is not necessary if you don't feel like it 😸 As long as you're enjoying, then I am as happy as Larry 🥰💜
i remember when the BBC Doctor Who website had a 'Fear Factor' based on scores from a family that got to preview the episodes. IIRC Consensus was that adults found the Empty Child much scarier than children did!
"Dalek" was the episode that sold me on Doctor Who. This two-parter solidified it. Three of my favorite episodes of all time. And you'll love Captain Jack as time goes on. ;-)
I think I'll learn to warm up to him haha... He's just very... forward 😆
Late to the party but I'm enjoying this series so much. It's so great to experience my favourite show all over again through fresh eyes. I hope you keep going and watch all of them, there are some really amazing episodes to come ❤
Thank you!! There's heaps more on the channel these days for you too 😊
"She's safe now, unless this guy is a weirdo"
Both things can be true.
A lot of the fanbase loves Jack Sparrow. The actor himself....has definitely become somewhat controversial in recent years.
So scary, this one. A whole generation of terrified children.
All the stuff you said at the beginning here… I’ve never commented, I don’t think, but yeah - I absolutely share the feeling of what others have said. I’ve been watching all of your Buffy stuff, and the Dr Who - and I love rewatching, reminding myself how much I love these shows/eps, but then the fun of also watching someone with “new eyes” react quite a bit like I did back when I first watched… it does make it fun :) carry on 😊
Thank you, Robert!! That means the world to me. I'm so glad to hear you've been enjoying the episodes, both Who and Buffy 💜
I only discovered your channel late last night (UK time) but i have reached the 9th reaction to this show. I certainly do appreciate what you are doing, and the work you put into it. I look forward to continuing the journey with you, as i see you experience these episodes for the first time.
Awww Jon, thank you!! I am so glad that you're here and enjoying the videos ☺️💜
I'm a 3rd, 4th and 5th doctor kind of guy (hope you get round to doing those lol), going by age (so way before this), but this episode and the next are definitely outstanding. Love the creepy vibes. Keep going, love your reactions!
I'll keep going as long as people keep watching 💜 thank you, Richard!
Alright. The creepiest story, so far. I hope you enjoy it, Jules💜 and Thank You, sincerely, for allowing me into your space, to view it with you!💖
Another one of my best of episodes, even though I have never been too thrilled with Captain Jack, as I find him a bit too much, often times. He serves a definite purpose here, but I am mostly like the Doctor, and he annoys me.🤨
The other thing going for Captain Jack, is he stars in the later spin off, folks keep bringing up, Torchwood. I doubt I will ever be accepted in the Doctor Who Official All-Time Fanatic Club🤣because, I don't really care for Torchwood that much either. I watched a couple seasons and found the episodes, I don't know, shallow maybe? I felt there was a sameness to them, and the characters, which I would never say about the Doctor Who series.
Early on, you had a couple of apologists, sort of whinging/apologizing for the quality of the CGI in this First Series, but say what you will about the special effects, that scene where the doctor Doctor's face slowly turns into a gas mask, is forever creepy, and, this time, watching along with you, it suddenly reminded me of SOMA, which I chose not to think too much about.😨
I think I always liked this show, well, firstly because I was fascinated by the old shows I saw occasionally on late-night educational tv, when I was very young, but when I started watching them in earnest, with this series, I found grand, in a way very similar to the X-Files. With just a bit of suspension of dis-belief they both tell fantastic tales, with believable plots, and are constantly surprising, with their scope, their depth. Both series are amazing, but Doctor Who is most consistently so. I have watched these seasons a number of times, and I always enjoy them. They are funny, heartwarming, cheeky, frightening, and many times, very melancholy, or downright sad. It's just marvelous entertainment.😊😝
One of the spin-offs, I do enjoy, and I wish to watch all of one day, is a children's show, well so is Doctor Who, but I always liked the main character. A former days Companion, Sarah Jane Smith, the Adventures of Sarah Jane. A marvelous character, with an appealing personality.
Anyway, a very good episode, with some twists and turns, as usual, and unexpected, which makes them very entertaining. 😛 As others have mentioned, one of the biggest attractions here is watching you, and recalling the same feelings you are experiencing, from my first viewing just a few years ago. I am so pleased you decided to take the time to watch, enjoy, record, edit, and publish your experiences with this show. It truly is great entertainment, seeing you, remembering me, and feeling, very much, like a shared experience.🤭 A marvelous way to spend 20-30 minutes, once a week, so, again, Thank you for the effort, Jules. These little gems you produce and share, they are everything,😍 and forever.🥰
Have a most wonderful Thursday, and a belated Happy International Cat Day, to your furry fellow felines in fun... Have a wonderful evening, and a greater tomorrow, Jules.🤗💜
C'mon, admit it. If some handsome guy saved your life then danced to Glenn Miller with you on an invisible spaceship, you'd fall for him. :)
It would be quite tempting! I can see why Rose was taken by him 🤭
Oh its been so long since i saw these first time, watching you is fun. But you're in for a treat, this pair of episodes are great.
I'm so glad that you're enjoying this silly little show. This show does mean a lot to me and so many others and to see you take to it in it's first series is amazing. Super excited to see more of your Doctor Who reactions going forward 😊
Thank you so much for your kindness 💜
"The Doctor" is just a nickname he gave himself. Long story. He does have a real name, we all don't know. Just keep calling him "The Doctor". It's the perfect description....
No way, so no one knows?!?!? That's fascinating!
i love your reactions but i hate having to wait on the second part of a two parter
Awww 💜 it won't be too long! Thank you!
As a child this episode scared the absolute crap out of me 😂.
This is what Who should be. Nightmares for all the family :)
The Doctor did once explain why he takes companions with him. You won't see that for a while yet - 'tis in series 5 - but his reason is the same as why I, and doubtless many others, enjoy watching content like yours. I look forward to continuing following your adventures.
As for other time-travellers, there are indeed several. Some, like Jack, appear in the show, others are exclusive to the franchise's expanded media (books, audio plays, etc.), such as my personal fave, Iris Wildthyme. ^_^
John Barrowman is a ridiculously attractive human being.
It's great to have you join the Whovian family 😊. Captain Jack harness is awesome
Any time is a good time for romance. Capt. Jack believes this and applies it liberally and without discrimination.
This story has become a classic, Jules. Apparently, kids were going up to each other in school playgrounds saying 'are you my mummy?'. IMO this is one of the best and the first story of the modern series to compare with the classic series
There would be nothing scarier than a playground full of monotone children, staring, and asking if we were their mummy 😱
@@julesreacts I didn't mean to imply I didn't like this series up until now. There had already been excellent episodes like the one with Charles Dickins, 'Dalek' and Father's Day' (one of my favourites). This was the first true classic of the modern series.
Thank you for reacting to Doctor Who. I remember seeing this when it first aired, I really liked this show. Your reactions reminds me of when I introduced my daughter to Doctor Who when she was little, she loved it. So much fun.
Awww I love that. Thank you so much 💜
I love your reactions and thoughts on these episodes! As for Jack, he definitely becomes a favourite for many in the Whoniverse 😉😂. Looking forward to watching the rest of season one and beyond with you! I'd been struggling to find decent stuff to watch on CZcams, then I found your channel and absolutely love it! Thank you for taking the time to watch, share your thoughts, and edit these videos to share with us. I can't imagine the time it takes.
Oh thank you so much, Chixta! I have to admit, it took me a little while for me to warm up to Jack haha 🤣 I wasn't sure what to think of him, but I really do like him now! I don't want to say too much here due to spoilers if someone is reading this and hasn't watched up to where I'm up to now, but.... Yeah! He's cool for sure!
I appreciate your kind words very much! It takes me a long time to edit the episodes (HOURS haha) and it is a bit draining at times, but I'm so glad that lovely people like you enjoy them 💜😸
AHHHHHHHHHHH ONE OF MY FAVORITE TWO PARTERS EVER
17:35 - imagine how horrific it felt for the people undergoing it
Risk taker, yeah okay i can see that in Rose, but the inconsistency with her jealousy of the doctor showing anyone any attention makes her kinda hypocritical. And I agree that "finally a professional" line is annoying even after all these years, because it's a case of "be who I expect you to be," as opposed to accepting that the doctor is who he is. Don't try and change the man or woman you fancy, just accept them for who they are folks.
One of the greatest 2 parters in all of modern Who. I had nightmares about this episode when I was a kid lol but man is it amazing. As for Rose falling for Jack, just to say, there is a reason why everyone fancies Jack.
He is VERY charismatic!
Ooooh it's time for The empty child.... Time to activate all new nightmares! You're welcome....
Yay. It’s Wednesday Time to re-visit Who with you.
This is a really really good two-parter. Clever and twisty. As you can already tell, they drop hints like breadcrumbs. Part of the fun of this episode is piecing things together as the characters do.
And hey, Rose can’t help that reaction. Jack is a walking pheromone. Women, men, alien insects, androids…if you can shag it he will flirt with it. You’ll see 😁
Insects 🤣🤣 okay, I gotta see Captain Jack making out with some sort of alien beetle 🪲
@@julesreacts Actually, you aren’t that far off 😂
Creepy is an understatement. Eventually you should become acquainted with the term “nightmare fuel” and you’ll eventually learn how it’s associated with this show in particular.
How does someone turn a little boy saying, “are you my mommy,” into pure horror? 😱
The gas mask 😱😱 yikes!!
It is a treat watching your reactions. Thank you for all your hard work reacting, gaming, editing, uploading, (re-uploading if required), it’s very much appreciated, and I’m sure the rest of your community feel the same way. I noticed your Fallout-Boy Figure, did you get that with the F3 collectors’ lunchbox or..? And just as a matter of interest which FO game is your fave , F3, NV, F4. or are you an OG and prefer F1 / F2? :)
Oh thank you!! Most episodes require a re-edit and re-upload. It's a miracle if one gets through first go! Weirdly, I have no problems with Buffy or X Files but Who? No chance 🤣
I've played a lot of Fallout 76 and I also played New Vegas on my gaming channel. I'd love to play Fallout 4 there at some point soon too! Which one do you like best?
@@julesreacts Oooo for RPG’ers, I would highly recommend playing them all, if possible.
I love them all, but if I had to rate them my ranking would be #1 NV Ultimate ED #2 F1/F2 #3 F3 GOTY #4 F4 GOTY #5 F76
For me, NV was a much richer RPG experience (over F3), and was set in West Coast USA much like F1/F2 were, so it felt truer to the original cannon.
F3, set in Washington DC and is still a good RPG experience, but not as good as NV.
F4, set in East Coast USA, was also good, but what let it down for me was they introduced the Fusion Core (yep, the same ones as in F76) and it had you stumbling over sets of Power Armour on every corner, which kinda cheapened the whole PA experience for me, but that’s just my opinion 😊
F76, I play and love, but from a RPG/Cannon perspective I have to rate last.
If you can find the time, I would definitely give F4 GOTY a play. Be warned, I think with the HD textures it’s a chonky boy at 90GB’ish. I’m heading over to your games channel right now! Oh , and what is your fave Fallout Faction?
