“I didn’t escape, sir. The angel killed me too.” So chilling.
Let us not forget this was Matt Smith’s first episode he shot rather than the pilot The Eleventh Hour.
Not the first time in Who history that that's happened. Back in the 5th Doctor's era Peter Davison shot his second story before his first. And you can easily tell when watching them back to back because his hair is longer in the first one than the second one.
The "so why don't the statues?" reveal is in my top three doctor who moments, so cool
Instant shivers
Brilliant moment!
"This is very Warhammer (...) Space marines", "That's like a D&D spell" .... Paula is such a nerd - I love it :-)
The crash of the Byzantium was mentioned by River back in Silence in the Library.
Has anyone done a reaction to the River Song épisodes in ‘her’ order? After they’ve caught up, obviously. Might be a fun thing to see someone gobsmacked at how nicely Moff did it. 🥰
@@karlmortoniv2951 I don't think so, but I believe sesskasays went back to rewatch the Library two-parter after finishing the show.
Karl Morton IV
I haven’t seen a reaction but I have seen videos where they stitched River’s story together in her chronological order.
I’ve watched her episodes in her order before... spoiler...
A bit difficult to choose when she shows up more than once though. Given how convoluted her story gets. If Amy were really there, she’d be on the beach in three places at once. But Amy was already at Demons Run by then. So there were really just two in that scene... But she’s also a little girl in that episode and the next one.
And that beach scene takes place different ways in different episodes so you have that mess to sort out too.
I think River’s life is the most completely documented life on the entire show. From conception to death. Strange how that worked out.
Yes River. It is always interesting to watch people who do not know her story yet. :)
just remember, careful what you share. To quote River "spoilers".
Underrated line: "Like a said on the dance floor ... you might want to find something to hang on to."
River has excellent one-liners
River- Doctor, can you sonic me? -Doctor uses the screwdriver- Amy-Uh, Doctor, you soniced her!... I love that part!
Steven Moffat created the scariest of all the new enemies in the post-2005 Doctor Who, and the Weeping Angels top the list, followed closely by the Clockwork Men from "The Girl In The Fireplace" and the "Are you my mummy?" gas mask zombies.
The Silence still freak me out a bit. But... spoilers. 😜
What about the Vashda Nerada?
The Vashta Nerada.... The Veil.... The Monster Under the Bed... The Empty Child... The Silence... The Clockwork Androids.... The Weeping Angels... the Genius of Steven Moffat
The sequence of Amy watching the Angel emerging from the screen is one of the most effective moments of horror ever written in Doctor Who. As frightening as the direct encounters are, the tape image coming to life is very much the "don't think of an elephant" equivalent, with very dire consequences.
“Doctor, what do you know... of the weeping angels?”
I just realized…has this version of River been through the Angels of Manhattan episode yet? Because if so…she’s seeing her mother face the thing that killed her
"Too bad.. Suckerrrrr" 😂 😂 😂
It's funny watching Paula's reaction to Matt Smith, knowing that he'll have her bawling her eyes out in the future 😀❤
Ohhh a Warhammer reference, 10 points to Paula
This has one of my favourite Doctor Who quotes:
"it would be very good, if we could all remain calm in the presence of decor." 😂
I really enjoy this episode. Matt Smith was brilliant, the tension and atmosphere was great. Fun fact, this was actually the first story of series 5 that was filmed because Alex Kingston was only available for a limited number of dates. It's amazing to see how quickly Matt settled into the role, he just seems so comfortable. I would argue no other actor settled into the role of the Doctor quicker than Matt. And I say that despite the fact that I prefer Tennant, Tom Baker and Peter Capaldi (I can't wait until you get to him) in the role. Looking forward to the next reaction!
I think the same thing. To me, Matt Smith nailed the part right from the start. Tennant needed a few episodes, Whittaker too, and Capaldi was top notch in his second series. It's more difficult to say about Eccleston because he only had one series and it was a reboot after many years, but I think he was the Doctor from the start too. I love them all and enjoy this rewatch!
@@malvaashdown I think Tennant suffered a bit because his Doctor wasn't actually present for a lot of his first two episodes. He was fast asleep for the 40 minutes of "The Christmas Invasion" and then he was possessed by Cassandra for much of "New Earth". "Tooth and Claw" was the first time Tennant was given the opportunity to shine for an entire episode and he did just that. Interestingly, I actually far prefer Capaldi in his first series. I think they watered down his Doctor and made him much too silly in his second series. Thankfully they found a healthy balance in his third series. Whittaker still hasn't nailed it for me unfortunately, but she's improved a lot from her early days.
@@Mrazmatmahmood That's part of what is so awesome with a tv show like DW : there is always something new, something different and a bit for everyone to love. I know some people have a hard time getting used to Whittaker, but I've personally loved her from her first episode onward. I like her and I'm sure I'll like the next Doctor too.
@Thomas Meehan Is that why he remains the most popular Doctor ever to this day? Is that why the show was at its most popular during his tenure? I don't mean to shit on anyone's opinion, but you seem to be ready to pounce on anyone that praises Tennant for some strange reason.
@Thomas Meehan That's your opinion, so good for you. I would argue that nine and Rose were also in love (people seem to ignore that) and it makes complete sense for that to happen considering she was his first companion after the time war and how she helped him to recover from that. I'd also say that the love story between the Doctor and Rose was only there to emphasise the Doctor's an alien and that he can never live a normal human life. It's a pretty similar case with Martha and the story with her shows the impact losing Rose had on the Doctor. He becomes more distant and colder, failing to notice Martha's feeling for him. He also grows a little selfish because all he wants is companionship to fill the void of loneliness left by Rose's absence. His failure to acknowledge Martha's feelings is another indicator that he's an alien that doesn't completely grasp human emotion. He may have fell for Rose, but that was under very special circumstances.
This story also allows Martha to grow as a person and by the end she becomes more independent. She recognises her own self worth and she realises that she doesn't need validation from the Doctor and simply walks away. This experience also allows the Doctor to see how badly, albeit inadvertently, he had treated Martha. He realised that he had to move on from Rose and set proper boundaries between he and his companions, which we saw happen in "Partners in Crime" with Donna. The Martha arc did what any good story ideally should, it gave room for both characters to develop and grow better.
A warhammer 40k reference... made my nerd heart happy.
What a fantastic 2 parter this is. Also fun fact this was the first episode that Matt Smith ever filmed as The Doctor, I always find that so crazy considering how fully formed his performance is already!
I think the dialogue implies (and was at a later stage confirmed by Moff) that there had been other meetings between the Doctor and River after the library and before this episode that we just didnt get to see
Big Finish has done great things with River meeting all the previous Doctors. 😁
The worst job in the world? The props person who has to put the angel statues away in the storeroom at the end of the day and turn the lights out ... NO THANK YOU!
Such a great double episode. The next episode shows Smith’s Doctor forced to his limits & its amazing.
I’m excited to see Paula see that side of him. We’ve seen some of it but he really gets brutal & serious in the next episode
By the smiles on your faces I could tell this must be a favourite episode for you both .from standout beginning. to explosive end
bob doesn't scare me i keep thinking how Rowan Atkinson making the unfunny name 'Bob' funny in Blackadder
What can I say other than...OMG A KITTEH!!!
I was SO looking forward to her reaction when River showed up and it did not disappoint :D
This really holds up as one of the best 2-parters in modern DW.
And I'm glad to see Katrina's kitty getting in on the act this time. They've clearly decided they can't leave you 2 to hog all the limelight. 😄
Oh Paula, there are so many layers to Professor River Song. This is gonna be great!
As much as I love 10th doctor,the 11th,ponds and river is my favorite team in doctor who. I attached to them so much,they will always be in my heart.
I think Paula had the same reaction I had when I first saw this episode, My Doctor doesn't use guns, It took me a long time to realise this is not MY doctor but he is THE Doctor and it's not fair to compare
Just James he didn’t use the gun to shoot at people just to blow up the light.
Angels do make some crazy villains/monsters, and love how this show will drop bits of lore and info just randomly. Keeps you focused on the shows :)
6:14 a girl that knows both warhammer and doctor who and is beautiful she is PERFECT
When I was little I got SO scared watching this episode. I was screaming and crying and building a pillow fort so I couldn't see them.
This is one of my all-time favourite episodes! It's one of those rare ones which actually makes adults like me scared. I literally had chills going through me even watching this reaction. They just keep dialling-up the scares. A bit of trivia, both Matt Smith yanking that handhold out of the shuttle cabin and then later biting Amy were improvised by him. Karen Gillan legitimately did not expect him to do that for real, hence the scream from her. Finally, I seem to recall the location shooting for this episode was the very first stuff Matt and Karen filmed for Doctor Who. I remember behind-the-scenes photos of them from around that time.
Paula is practically buzzing with excitement during this one. What a fun reaction!
Paula losing her shit like the rest of us did. I actually have six stills from the 4 second loop saved on my computer in a folder to use for my background on my laptop. It cycles through them randomly so I never know when I see that screen what it'll be. The first year I had it like that, I scared myself about 4 times a day. Now it's like once a month. But it gets every single person who ever borrows my computer and it's hilarious.
Setting a reminder to myself to sign up for the Full Geronimo tier at the start of June. Can't wait!
Just want to say the detail do Matts jacket being stolen then reappearing and the meaning behind it coming back around later one was amazing. As a kid when I first saw this live I remember noticing the Jacket and going “how?” And then by the end it all just fit so perfectly.
This was the first episode of doctor who I ever saw. I think it's a good one to start with
So many great stories this season, this two parter most definitely included.
Richtig super gemacht! Dies ist einer meiner Favoriten. :)
I love this story so much. River, the Weeping Angels... so much good stuff going on here.
Can't wait to see what Paula thinks of part 2!
Thank you so much for doing this, lockdowns been really tough and it’s so nice to see people enjoying something so simple as tv together. Really makes my week. Also, Helps it’s doctor who😊
Some beautiful acting from Smith, Gillan and Kingston in this two parter. Like this immensely as a use of the Angels.
P.s. yes I'm still in love with Katrina but who's keeping track anymore I meannnnn
🙂
Fingers crossed for no copyright strike.
Youre gonna love 11. Is just a matter of time
The soldier with the lipstick at the start is Mike Skinner from The Streets
I love me some weeping angels, with my favorite angels. Great reaction G gals. 👍👍
This two-parter is where Matt Smith really comes into his own. Unfortunately, it does mess about with the Weeping Angels, reducing their scare factor, but on the whole, it's one of the better entries from the Moffatt-era.
River, the Weeping Angels and my Gallifrey Gals! What could be better!
Fun fact: the jumping out of the ship scene was made without a double.
The second coolest use of the word "Me" in a tv show.
Love these, it's like watching Doctor who with an oblivious friend, please keep it up!
Love that Paula referenced Warhammer.
8:47 An angel being static while observed.
God love River Song. =D
Can't wait until you guys do part 2.
In my opinion, this episode ends with one of the best Matt Smith Doctor speeches ever, love it and love this two parter. Slightly disappointed it wasn’t two episodes in one but oh well. 🤓
And that's saying something, he had some REALLY good speeches during his run.
love the reaction, cannot wait for the next one
"silence doctor, *silence* will fall"
Oh wow, I didn't expect to see Mike Skinner from the streets in that cold open. Watch the music video for the Streets - Blinded by the lights to see what I mean. It was an obvious callback to that music vdeo
Lucky Sally Sparrow didn't ever take any pictures of the angels then.....
So I just spent the past two days watching every single one of these videos
Well, howdy! Welcome to the ride ☺️
Katrina Alysha thankyou! Happy to be here :)
The Doctor using the gun I think adds to the severity of the situation even more
You Gals make quarantine fun, twice a week. :)
Loved seeing the syncing of the video watching.
The things we could say about some of the lines in this episode, but can't because SPOILERS! Great reaction Gals.
Love the nuggets if info they dropped this episode
Not a big fan of the new abilities the angels get in this episode, but LOVE the reappearance of River Song!!
You are not alone, but I have never understood this criticism. The angels in “Blink” were a small group of four, existing by scavenging among those who wouldn’t be missed much. The angels in this one are basically a whole regiment with a plan that they are trying to execute. I guess we’re assuming that these angels are more advanced than the ones in “Blink” but their time might not run in the same direction as ours, but that’s by the way. The angels in “Blink” didn’t need to interact with humans beyond zapping them back in time, unlike these who need to goad the Doctor on. The two stories take place in completely different circumstances so it makes sense to me that they’d be behaving differently, And then in “The Angels take *SPOILERS*” they’re up to something completely different again. Moff found a lot more things to do with the Weeping Angels than anyone expected. 🙂
Hello Sweetie(s)! < seemed appropriate for this episode > Look forward to your reactions for the second part. Stay Safe!
Lovely reaction
I love River
Woo. Time to get my viewing in before the inevitable block! :D
I feel like every little scene in the outro needs its own explanation!
I have the biggest crush on Paula Oml
and over a year later the quarantine is still on
I guess Paula’s trip to Harrogate got cancelled or shunted (Just watched ‘Unicorn and the Wasp’ reaction). It will wait for you (it is in Yorkshire, my neck of the woods). Meantime stay safe until we are all let off the leash again!
Have you watched the ‘behind the scenes’ clip where Alex’s knee connects with a delicate part of Matt’s anatomy as she crashes through the TARDIS’s doors? 😂
yeyyyy river's backkkk
This is Aliens to Blink's Alien
Moffat had planned on having Tennant for this season, so just as the girl in the fireplace being written for nine but played by ten, so this idea was for ten but played by 11. Don’t be so sure that Ten didn’t have an adventure with River after the library. Because we didn’t see it doesn’t mean he didn’t meet her. She didn’t act like that was the first time she’d seen ten in the library. But in the library she did ask him if they’d done the crash of the Byzantium yet (so at least in Moffat’ head it was a Ten episode which he reworked for 11)
Disagree there. I think River acted like she'd not met that version of the Doctor before. Remember how shocked she was at him being so young.
Bob was right, though. The statue did look at him.
Well that's OK. You two lived up to your title by at least one of you getting "Wibbly Wobbly" (in your video image anyway) in the early stages of the video. Hehe
"Time is not the boss of me!"
Do either of you play 40K? If so which army(ies)? ^_^
great episode. imo better than blink but it is close.
Amy pond is 100% my favourite companion in new doctor who. She amazing but no one will ever top Sarah Jane.
I actually still can't believe that they decided to hit us with the "lol River Song's back bitches" and "the absolute best villains of the modern Era and maybe of all time are present and there's more than 4 of them this time bitches" AND "it's the 1st two parter of this brand new Doctor's career bitches" AND AND AND "lol lol lol this is Smith's first filmed episode bitches"
Like, all of that combined with the fact Flesh And Stone ties into the finale; screw the fact we saw Angels move, it's so damn brilliant and daring. My ONLY complaint with Moffat really is this season demonstrated how well he can copy RTD's style of making the whole season tie into the finale and I know technically S6 does the same, but nowhere near as well. You've a time traveler, it's alright to write a whole season as one overarching story and doing it *well* .
You 2 are quality the first person you see in the episode with the lipstick on his face is from a English band called the 'Streets' look them up great band
You genuinely can't tell that this was the first episode that Matt Smith filmed, he feels completely at ease in the role, especially given everything this story throws at him. This is a phenomenal first part for this story, tense, frightening, funny and action packed, with a fantastic cliffhanger to boot. River's mystery is built on excellently and Alex Kingston plays the part perfectly, showing great chemistry with Smith. The Angels are used excellently too. I think there was a worry at the time that this would strip away the mystery and threat they posed in Blink, but I feel the new abilities they introduced feel like a natural progression from their appearance in the previous story, and they still come across as a real threat. This story is essentially an Aliens-type sequel to Blink, so Paula's little comment about space marines was an appropriate comparison. Now for part 2...
Pre-production involves table reads so I imagine that a lot of Smith's Doctor persona and cast chemistry was worked out before ever stepping foot on set.
After the next episode you really should watch the mini “meanwhile in the TARDIS” part 2, or you’ll miss out on the fun.
too avoid poor audio/video quality both of you could record your on cam/mic then sent it to the person editing and sync them op in post
sorry if my english is a bit broken
Among the best episodes. Wish I had seen you guys watch the Library episodes but I don't see those on you video list.
Seen it now! Didn't realize you migrated from an earlier site. Now I know.
Hallooo!
Paula, it's okay if you never stop missing David Tennant. You'll still enjoy others in the roll, but they'll all be different.
I have to kepp reminding myself that Paula dosnt know who River is ... yet
She does, actually, even if she doesn’t know that she knows. ☺️
"It's not supposed to make that noise"
As much as I adore River Song, this was total BS. Every TARDIS ever shown makes that sound (the sound that brings hope), so if that's the so-called parking-break, then piloting a TARDIS with it on is standard operating procedure.
PAULA’S MUG 😍😍 Are you a fan of The X-Files?
Hello Sweetie... SPOILERS...
No one wondering why no one was zapped back in time?
We do understand but Tennant didn't get River's best moments, in all seriousness.
doctor who does ALIENS
Yeah Katrina Paula I love you girls I think you girls are cute John Madden from Pawtucket Rhode Island
It's hard to believe that it's been ten years since I first watched this.
I was most impressed with it - but in the UK,the transmission was ruined when a silly animated figure advertising the next programme was mistakenly broadcast BEFORE this episode had ended (actually during the Doctors epic speech,if I recall), completely ruining the atmosphere and suspense!
It did mess up episode thinking back
I think it was some show with Graham Norton in it
Damn you Graham Norton!
Yeah, he did a whole ‘sincere and humble apology’ for the error, if I recall correctly. 🤣
the delirium archive. last resting place of the WHO?
Katrina should record herself from her end and then send the footage over afterwards, it's what a lot of content creators do in this situation.
Wouldn't that take away from their interactions during the episode?
@@Helbore No, I'm not saying that they shouldn't do the video call. I'm saying that Katrina can record herself during the video call. Then Katrina's footage can be edited in with Paula's later, so the video and audio quality is increased.
@@FortoFight Ahhh, I get ya now! Yes, that does sound like a good idea.
I was assuming Katrina couldn’t record herself for some reason, otherwise yeah.
@@karlmortoniv2951 Unfortunately I don't have the greatest camera accessible at the moment. And my phone was not the best when we tried to do it that way 😔 This ended up being the best and most stress free result. We hope you can understand! 💕
boiiii
