    Okay RetroBlasting and BatmanMarch, get ready for a sequel or being Doctor Who should we say the next episode? B&M just announced new companion sets so we'll now have these companions you listed as well: classic Sarah Jane Smith (from Genesis of the Daleks) Harry Sullivan (Sontaran Experiment) Brigadier, Benton and Yates (Claws of Axos), and Romana I (Pirate Planet) and Romana II (Destiny of the Daleks). I absolutely can't wait!!!

    I agree that Paul Mcgann should have been in the 50th anniversary instead of the War Doctor. A waste of a regeneration, as well.

      The War Doctor was great. Also, wasted regenerations don't really matter anymore. It may not be what you wanted, but it's what happened. I don't think it's right to leave him off of a list.

      What grinds my gears is that they asked Eccleston and he said no…they then dismissed the idea of asking McGann as they felt nobody watching would know who he was.

  • @LordMooshroom
    @LordMooshroom Před 4 lety +4

    John Hurt as the War Doctor was great. He didn't have much screen time, but it's such an interesting idea. There was a secret regeneration that the doctor basically disowned.

      Is it likeness issues? Is that why there's still no Adric? Adric was SO pivotal in "Earthshock". Is it because he has practically just 1 look, with limited opportunities for repaints?

    • @lapelcelery42
      @lapelcelery42 Před 3 lety

      I personally don't think he works. I find the idea of jamming a regeneration in the past of the character is pointless when McGann could have played the part (unless he was asked and turned it down, which I don't think is the case), but more egregiously I think it's symptomatic of Steven Moffat's desire to put "clever" ideas into the show to make his mark on it rather than because they're particularly good (which I think is actually exemplified by the fact that it could have been McGann, but that would have been less "clever"). Plus, I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I find John Hurt's performance to be overacted in a lot of places, but that's possibly a consequence of the fact that a lot of the script is banter between the Doctors which is self-indulgent and uninteresting to me, which I understand is actually the reason Christopher Eccleston turned the part down himself.
