Yeah, he definitely went places alright. Ruined the show to the point where even his most ardent and loyal defenders now hate him for destroying Doctor Who.
Funny on how Joanna Lumley was the 13th Doctor in this spoof, and later the actual 13th Doctor was also female, played by Jodie Whittaker. Both had blonde hair too :)
9:50 I wonder if what 37-year-old Moffat said back then might have some impact in the future (after Capaldi), especially now that we know that the rules are meant to be broken...
and now we have Missy, the latest incarnation of the Master... in female form.... Curse of Fatal Death wasn't meant to be comedy, it was his mission statement of where He wants to take Doctor Who! The Doctor gets married, check. A time lord regenerates into a time lady, check. the return of the master, check. Romance between Doctor and companion (RTD did this with Rose), check. Fart jokes (RTD), check. The Doctor runs out of regenerations but somehow gets more, check (Time of the Doctor). The Doctor and Master romance, check.
So, this Jonathan Pryce guy is a 'method' actor? But seriously, he seemed to enjoy himself immensely in this. And it seems a shame that Hugh Grant and Joanna Lumley couldn't have been together in a scene.
8:15 She... turned... down... Doctor Who? Why would anyone turn down Doctor Who? If they ever decide to film an episode of a series near my local area (which at this point seems unlikely to happen) and were auditioning for people to play extras, I would jump at the chance. Even if it was just for one shot and was only in it for a second. And even if the scene I was in got cut out of the final version of the episode, I would still be able to say "I MET THE DOCTOR! I MET THE DOCTOR! YEEEAAAAHHH!!".
Andrew Chapman Yeah I know. But in a way she's still part of the franchise after-all. :P It's hard to determine what will happen in show biz i.e. what will be successful and what won't. For me, as someone who's obsessed with the show I would have jumped at the chance, but for someone who wants to have a job for a decent amount of time jumping on board a project that is pretty unpopular and known to be a monetary failure wouldn't be a good career move.
She would have played Ace's replacement role of a cat burglar (Jackie?) if the show hadn't been cancelled. That role ended up going to Beth Chalmers in audio. Kind of disappointed they didn't get Julia Sawalha for the audio stories as she is a better fit for the role even today.
Non-canonically, yes, he did became the Shalka Doctor, and was thought to be the official Ninth Doctor before announcement about the 2005 revival series was made.
whats with moffatand sex changes in doctor who. after all you dont see terminator get a sex change you don't see any other main charecters get sex change so y in doctor who :(
This moffet guy, I think he's going places
Yeah, he definitely went places alright. Ruined the show to the point where even his most ardent and loyal defenders now hate him for destroying Doctor Who.
Mr. JustAGuyWithALightsaber fuck you he’s a brilliant writer and made doctor who fantastic
Mr. JustAGuyWithALightsaber don't know if you're being serious or not.
InstaBlaster.
@@UnchainedEruptionChibnall would like to know your location.

I really think this Moffat guy has a future in Doctor Who. Who knows, maybe he and a friend can bring the wilderness years to an end
Richard E. Grant later became the Scream of the Shalka Doctor.
TehMondasianSpartan And then in ‘The Snowman.’
and then doctor simeon, and then the great intelligence
First Richard E. Grant played the Doctor and then he jumped into his timeline to try and stop him from succeeding.
Rowan would make a great doctor, yes, but I want to see Jonathan Pryce as the real master. Or maybe he could play one of the older ones.
Moffat literally cannot change how he looks.
Pryce is such an awesome guy

3 years on from this comment, and we now know that 13 is the first female Doctor!

Steven Moffat is so young, holy heck.
Hopfully when Jodies goes, I hope they cast Rowan as the new Dr. That would be interesting.
Anyone else find it funny when the dalek knocks on the door with its plunger in the opening? I sure did when I saw this as a kid
I love what they did with Rowan's head in the intro!

Andrew Chapman At the time it was sort of like career cancer.
Andrew Warren Maybe, but look at the show now though. Almost everyone would love to appear in Doctor Who, even if it was just a quick cameo.
Andrew Chapman Yeah I know. But in a way she's still part of the franchise after-all. :P

Who the hell is that at 02:01? Really, he wrote this? Well I expect this is the last we will EVER hear from him...*Cough*
12:53 absolutely cracks me up!
please bring Rowan Atkinson as a Doctor
Wait, so Moffat was here since the beginning? O_O
"Dai, bachgen dai!"
“Having inseminated the producer…” Moffat PLEASE 💀
NAHHH 💀💀😨😨😨
😭😭😭😭
The Doctor as a woman! What a novel concept.
I wonder what that Moffat guy is doing now
"If you were going to have a female doctor, we've got the best one you could have"
Steven, Whittaker would like a word
He's not wrong
what kind of vest is the doctor wearing? please can anyone tell me and what is the neck wear if anyone?
Then richard e grant became the doctor :)
Non-canonically, yes, he did became the Shalka Doctor, and was thought to be the official Ninth Doctor before announcement about the 2005 revival series was made.
Mr Bean
MOFFET!!!!!!!
Fatal death, wow, that's the worst death.
stevan moffat doensnt age!
whats with moffatand sex changes in doctor who. after all you dont see terminator get a sex change you don't see any other main charecters get sex change so y in doctor who :(
To be fair the terminator doesn't change bodies at all.
Have you seen terminator three?
Doctor Who, a Woman ? Preposterous. It'll Never Happen. . . .oh
