I still love the "Moffat writing with one hand" joke after all these years because it's painfully true
I was so confused, watching that when it was fresh at 16, being able to contextualised it as an adult is really helpful.
"Karen Gillan is hot. Moffat is noticing a little too strongly."
I unironically love the Curse of Fatal Death and have rewatched it more times than a significant chunk of well-regarded stories over the years.
Honestly the gag with the Master having to spend all that time going through the sewers after falling in the hole, then doubling down on the gag and doing it again is just fantastic. So funny.
It honestly makes me wish Rowan Atkinson actually was one of the doctors. This episode is so much better than a lot of the recent ones from the revival.
Mr TARDIS can you pick up the jaw I dropped? Your 7 voice actor has achieved the impossible?!
I know right!
Please could I ask where you got your ID picture from? I've not seen the Fourteenth Doctor's outfit recoloured to the Sixth Doctor's costume but it looks cool.
23:40 I love those mini-series, especially "Good Night" where Amy learns what the Doctor does when the companions are asleep and asks the Doctor about her knowing both timelines of her life. I wish we had more episodes like that.
Also, since the episode was about sleeping in the TARDIS in a way - we need the return of the TARDIS bedrooms beyond referencing them! Show more rooms of the TARDIS, you have the budget now, RTD!
Great video!! Children in Need would be interesting, but that's partly because I like the Time Crash skit! XD I'd definitely like to know more about other charities Doctor Who has been involved in. I saw a poster on Instagram featuring the Fifth Doctor for the British Heart Foundation and that really intrigued me.
I also think a companion essay on Children in Need would be interesting.
Oh, I'm not on Insta, so yeah a side essay on other charitable outings is definitely a good idea.

Because of the amount of comments asking, heres some clarification.
This is a video about Comic Relief sketches. Things like;
- The Five Doctors
- Dimensions in Time
- Born Again
- Time Crash
- The Naked Truth
- Looking for Pudsey
- Anna's Surprise
Were not done by Comic Relief, but Children in Need. I may do a video on CiN in the future, but the comments saying "You forgot Time Crash!" no I didn't.
I didn't realize children in need and comic relief were two separate charities.
Maybe *this* should be the pinned comment.
Rory definitely deserved that slap because he was definitely thinking that having two Amy's around could be fun...
Rowan should be cast as the Master at least once, sort of like when Romana went through the 4 or 5 different configurations. Or, maybe have him play for two episodes.
Was it ever explained why Romana is able to rapidly change bodies without wasting regenerations and also choose what she looks like?
@@HOTD108_ no, probably just for the comedic effect
The Sylvester McCoy impression (Wink Taylor I believe, who also performed as 7 in the audio drama, 'Doctors Assemble'!') was so uncannily accurate you could convince people it was an actual recording from the 80s.
I bought a copy of the Comic Relief Comic at the time, although I was more invested in the Blackadder throughline than anything else. Sadly, I no longer have it in my possession, but it remains a fond memory. Nice to see it get the respect it deserves.
My favorite thing about Curse of Fatal Death is that it accurately predicted that the 13th Doctor would be a woman. How do I know this? It’s stated in the sketch that Atkinson is the Doctor’s 9th body, and he subsequently regenerates four times.
I love that the more you learn, the more ABSOLUTELY BLOODY BONKERS the history of doctor who gets
Curse of Fatal Death is the best, no question
The curse of fatal death is actually a part of my top 10 list of doctor who episodes, no one can tell me
It can’t be included - cannon or not. It’s cleverly written, incredibly entertaining, and so so funny, I honestly think a sequel with returning actors should be on the cards next Red Nose Day.
I can't judge because all my family love it to bits!!!
While we're on the subject on The Cruse of Fatal Death, It wasn't just the late Roy Skelton who voices the Daleks in this, They were also voiced by Dave Chapman who did tons of work on children's shows in the past including his well known performances as Otis the Aardvark.
That Jedward joke was pretty old even in 2013 i'm sure
The waters in the BBC seem more polluted than the Thames.
The Curse of Fatal Death is such a treat. I can just imagine a Blackadder themed Doctor Who parody where Blackadder is The Doctor and Melchet is The Master. Tell me you wouldn’t want to see that.
A review of it is a must for next year. Maybe even try to though it may be impossible, getting to interview Steven Moffat or Rowan Atkinson talking more in depth of the experience and production of the special. Appropriate as next year is its 25th anniversary.
Also, you said about Moffat referencing lines and ideas from the special in certain episodes he would write during his time as showrunner which is a nice nod but I remember you being particularly angry when he did it in The Magicians Apprentice/The Witches Familiar with the sewer, chair and I think even Hybrid plot. Has your thought changed over time or was it just the way Moffat’s egotism getting out of hand?
That Sylvester McCoy impression was, well, impressive.
This is the kind of doctor who content i wanna see buddy! Keep it up you smashed this episode 🎉
I have to say that it's crazy how something as simple as putting the Tardis prop inside the set is just a fantastic shock even though I have seen that short many times before.
Great video I love curse of the fatal death but the must watch sketch is the one done in between The Parting of the Ways and the Christmas invasion cause all the doctor companion bits are done in the sketch after we see the regeneration in The Parting of the Ways so it gives more context to the opening of the Christmas invasion and it explains why rose seemingly is so chill about doctor’s new appearance
this is brilliant! I'd love you to go through all of the Doctor Who Children in Need appearances next, which it has also been a huge part of for a long time now.
I actually know the Two Ronnie's and did when I was younger, I had NO idea that sketch existed a few years ago and when I found that out of was the most batshit thing I had read
Awesome stuff as always, can’t wait for your Hartnell marathon to continue, and then continue with Troughton and all the other Doctors! But you should defo do a video like this for Children In Need, there’s a lot more Whovian goings on there that RND!!!
Absolutely loved this video. Thanks dude!
Thunderbirds and The Two Ronnies and Mr Tardis saying "ask your parents" makes me really feel my early 30's given I grew up on both of those shows, forgetting that its only because it was through MY parents.
Great video!
I enjoyed this a lot! I didn’t realise the show had been part of RND so much. I’ve always seen Children in Need as doctor who’s kinda thing for some reason - I think they’ve done a lot more for them? (It feels like it at least lolll)
Must admit, I missed the Comic Relief vs Children in Need thing too. Good video
Fascinating video and I think I still have that Comic Relief comic stored somewhere. going to have to dig it out.
The SJA one. I grew up watching the Two Ronnies and as a Doctor Who fan I watched SJA so the jokes landed for me but yeah it was a strange juxtaposition with the two shows. One referencing a comic sketch show that had finished 20+ years ago and a show aimed at children.
Will look forward to a video on the Curse of Fatal Death though.
Something to watch when i get home from work tonight.😁
1000th like! My favourite is Space and Time. It's really funny and features some of my favourite characters. I know the jokes are a bit rude, but they're hardly explicit and the children won't mind. I mean, I think the joke is more that the driving instructor was distracted during the test, but anyway my mum let me watch Miranda at about 10 if not younger, and nothing bad came of it... the same can't be said of the two Doctor Who episodes I watched when I was younger, Deep Breath and Smile... how I ended up chancing upon two of the scariest episodes is beyond me!
Wasn’t it the Master’s TARDIS in Logopolis?
Lol, love this one! Love your channel As well
ah but in logopolis the Tardis didnt actually appear inside the Tardis; the Tardis materialised around the Masters Tardis which was itself around a real police box
i never knew i needed this
I found my comic relief comic in my garage the day after watching this. I was a little bit excited. Now. Is it actually a collectors item?
Mr Tardis, i dont know if youre gonna belive me, but i belive there is a cyberman behind you!
I love Curse of Fatal Death! I'm a big Rowan Atkinson fan in general. Very interesting to hear about Doctor Who's history with Comic Relief in this video.
Great vid
It's funny because my first experience with Doctor Who was by mistake, in mid to late 2011 I was watching CZcams videos about Back to the Future toys and was looking up "Docs Time Machine" I cam across one guy reviewing a delorean toy and saw a video called Doctor's TARDIS and assumed it was for Back to the Future by the Doctor part but didn't know what TARDIS meant at all. I watched this poor quality video about the 9/10th doctors TARDIS toy and then saw part one for the 2011 Red Nose Day Doctor Who special! No idea as to what this Doctor Who show was about at the age of 10 or 11 I decided to watch both video parts. This was my first introduction to Doctor Who and Matt in that moment became my Doctor. I fell instantly in love and needed to see more of him so I made my parents find out where I could watch the show. My timing was impeccable on this as BBC America was reshowing the entire series from S1 up to the premier of Season 6. So I started with Eccelston and worked my way all the way back to Matt over a series of Months until the premiere of Season 6. I was hesitant about 9 and 10 at Doctor as the small bit I got of Matt made me fall in love with the show as a whole but ultimately through and through I fell in love with there whole darn thing. Why have I commented this long story one might ask? To show that the smallest and shortest viewing can make someone find happiness and enjoyment so easily.
Surprised they didn't go for the most obvious crossover around: malcolm tucker as the 12th doctor
You know how you felt about Logopolis being ignored? That’s how I felt about your thoughts about Miranda…
26:31 hate to be that guy, but the one in "Logopolis" isn't actually the TARDIS; specifically, it's the _MASTER'S TARDIS_ disguised to look like the Doctors, ie his and the Doctors' ships both look like a police box in that episode. So because it's the _MASTER'S TARDIS_ landed inside the Doctor's, not his own inside of itself, that does technically mean "Space/Time" is the first time the TARDIS has landed inside of itself.
Absolutely loving the iconic Dr Franknfurter picture
Great retrospective. I'd love to see you follow DW through Children in Need as well.
You sadist! No-one should be forced to watch Dimensions in time!
Uh I’m pretty sure there was a Capaldi appearance as the 12th Doctor in a children in need special. It was Fantastic Beasts themed with Newt calling many tv personalities from the UK among which was the 12th Doctor. Newt asks everyone if they’ve seen Pudsey but 12 replies by describing an alien monster. Newt then hangs up on him. A blink and you miss it moment but about as long as Jodie’s in 2020 the movie « trailer ».
You even said it yourself in your comment.
That was Children In Need.
This video is about Comic Relief.
Oh sorry I missed the difference.
Great video, thank you, my only thought is that the Colin Baker appearance cannot have been from the hiatus because his costume is from his final season...
I love them all!
We had Comic Relief in the USA. It was a sister organization to the UK non-profit. It first aired in 1986, famously hosted by Robin Williams, Whoopi Goldberg & Billy Crystal. It aired as an HBO special, and each year there were subsequent specials, sometimes airing on network TV. Don’t think red noses were ever involved. I don’t know why it stopped but the US non-profit was dissolved in 2011.
The voices are great. Especially Sylvester.
I say that as a Scot.
17:18 My ass would've busted out laughing mid sentence
Someone please convince me the yoghurt of human kindness isn't jizz.
lenny was also in preimer inn hotels adverts
1:24 Mr Tardis has dyspraxia too? Welcome to the club.
Lenny Henry played a great doctor imo
The quip you included is my favourite from that special
Ah, this is a joy! Though the Davina make-out and Amy flirting with herself one was confusing to me as a teenager. Never gave it a second thought until now. Thanks for contextualising it, really clears things up as an adult
I’m sorry but Jedward being more scary than the Daleks is hilarious and I won’t budge on that opinion.
I thought Time Crash was a red nose day special?
Shout out for the Rocky Horror Picture Show poster!! 😊❤
I'm curious why you didn't mention the 2005 special where David Tennant first regenerated? The scene film was made for comic relief, but set right before the Christmas Invasion.
There was also Time Crash in 2007 where Peter Davidson returned briefly with the 10th doctor.
🤔
Somebody already pointed out the notion that Amy slept with the driving instructor is a real stretch so I won't go over it again but I feel like the whole "adult jokes" thing is very subjective. Like I think you're allowed to have a couple naughty jokes in there as long as you aren't too explicit with the content, and not like the Moff is the only New Who writer to have more mature jokes like this. I also fail to see how Amy flirting with herself is really that adult or character assassination-y since basically the joke there is more that Amy is little bit vain which isn't really too out of line with what we got in the main show or is something that's really bad for younger viewers.
The Curse of Fatal Death will always be my and my Family's Favourite Comic Relief Sketch and it is the Longest!!!
It's sad after Space and Time DW wasn't doing Memorable Red Nose Day Stetchs...
Also, I am in Today's Age to realize that, Ginger from Chicken Run was Emma in Curse of Fatal Death!!!
I should've put 2 and 2 Together, but I never saw what she look like!!!
so Amy slapping Rory is "far worse" than every other depiction of violence in this show?
The curse of the fatal death....the curse is you're stuck in a damn timeloop FOREVER!
you forgot the pre series 2 scene with the 10th doctor and rose just after his regeneration.
That's Children In Need. Not Comic Relief.
To be fair RE: the Jonathan Ross horny comments, didn't get he get sacked from BBC1 for being too edgy not too long after that?
KITTY!!!!
*Tries to pet through screen :) *
( 8:31) WHY IS NEIL GAIMAN EVEYWHERE
Either the curse of fatal death or the one from this year, the Dalek one
Cruse of Fatal Death, it's 25 Years Old!!!
@@marionbaggins It's older than me :) I am in my early 20s.
Some people still think of the 2000s kids as... well kids. We Zoomers are adults now xD
@@avocadothecat It 19 months older than me!!!
I'm a big fan of Dimensions in Time
It was a Children in Need special
Thank you for completing ignoring Dimensions In Time. The less said about that, the better.
Wasn't that for Children in Need anyway? Rather than Comic Relief.
I was going to leave a Comment, but I thought I could jus run down some corridors instead, so that's what I'm going to do! *proceeds to run down some corridors*
Separate videos on the Lenny Henry and Rowan Atkinson Doctors would be fun and perhaps one on the Mark Gatiss Doctor?
If I had a nickel for everytime a real life pedo whose name began with the letter J existed in something that also featured the doctor, I would have 2 which isn’t a lot, but it’s a very disturbing number of them
If you're talking about John Barrowman then it's just sexual assault that we know of, not paedophilia, same for Noel Clarke
One then I guess @@Whiteythereaper
so this is different from the Christmas specials Dr. Who used to do for charity?
how did you get that footage of the 6th doctor famine appeal? or where did you find it?
29:30 eh, this is the dream from someone on Tumblr
You changed the Pateron intro?!?! How dare thee good sir?! What is this? Big Finish, for the love of stories?!?!
Could you poerhaps do a video on Doctor Whpo's appearence for Children in Need? I especially loved Thirteen's first appearance.
Why is that thing about the Daleks not appearing in that giant crossover comic just, it's just so Terry Nation Estate
As charming as it is informative. I.e. very.
What about time crash with David Tennant and Peter Davison? Is that something else
Children In Need.
@@marionbaggins oh of course. I always get confused between those two
Say hello to the spikes of doom
Did Wink Taylor play the Seventh Doctor?
All of these are canon
You should have covered children in need as well
1000th like ❤
This was a good vide , could you do ones for children in need
Thathos lol
23:15 I'm sorry what
Human yoghurt?
I’m a worse nerd. I thought Logopolis AND Time Monster!
I liked Time Crash.
Wasn't Dimensions in Time a Comic Relief thing, or am I misremembering that?
Children in Need
You're right that there were some very unfunny things in some of those spots. However, your interpretation of one aspect of "Space" and "Time" is weird.
Kids wouldn't have "learned that Amy Pond might have slept with her driving instructor to get a passing grade". There's no hint of that. She "wore a skirt". It was a short skirt. It distracted the examiner. He didn't see her drive because he was distracted, not because Amy slept with him.
You do realise that that isn't much better, right?
@@tTaseric
You think dressing to impress "isn't much better" than sleeping with someone to get your way?
@@paulkennedy8701 I mean it isn't much better that the sketch aimed at kids would reference that.
@@tTaseric
Yes. That's what you said last time. I just wanted you to think about whether that's what you actually meant.
In the sketch kids heard that Amy passed her driving test because her instructor was distacted by the skirt she was wearing. It was a joke, made by her boyfriend, who clearly has teased her about her driving before, as well as about the impact she can make with how she dresses. It's not an actual accusation.
And the skirt itself is completely innocuous. She looks good in it, but there's nothing scandalous or provocative about it.
It's crazy to suggest that wearing that skirt on your driving test "isn't much better" than sleeping with the examiner.
Yeah, it was a weird interpretation on his part. Like you can maybe argue whether or not Amy wore the skirt on purpose to distract the driver but her sleeping with him isn't really implied.
Thumbs up if anyone wants Jonathan Pryce to be in doctor who proper!
14:40 did they predict the 13th doctor being female?? Lol
She actually was the 13th too (it started with Rowan Atkinson as the 9th and kept changing actors).
Moffat did the first Female Doctor back in 1999.
