"The high council has no right to order Peri's...or anyone else's death."
The crack in his voice when he says that stabs me in the heart every time. Colin will always be my favourite Doctor.
Come on bro... #4.
@@datmeme8967 nah, he's sorta overrated.
@@sillygoose635 yeah.. OK
@Michael McGrath Oh hey, it’s you.
@@datmeme8967 he is
"You...killed Peri."
And THAT my friends is exactly the reason why Colin Baker remains one of the most underrated Doctors by FAR.
Exactly. He brings such emotion to those lines that it's impossible not to be sucked in and empathize with him.
+James Aggas yeah, i've only noticed people think of doctors 4, 7, 9, 10, 11, and 12 as being popular... never 6.
+Peter Senior What about 1,2,3,5,6,8?
Bat Pika28 They all have their fans--I myself am really fond of 5. They're just not as prominent as the others.
hes one of the top 3 best doctors pertwee,tennant c baker
This era of Who had a lot of problems, but you can't deny that Colin Baker was a great Doctor after you look at this clip. His reaction to Peri's death was pitch perfect.
+JSYBen He did well considering the sack of shit he had to deal in terms of the feeble scripts he had to work with.
Also the fact that the comptroller was trying hard to screw over the series in multiple ways.
@Mark Guerrero What?!! His first season contained some excellent stories..'Revelation of the Daleks', 'Vengeance on Varos', 'Attack of the Cybermen' etc..
100% Agreed, none of the endless flaws in Colin’s era were his fault.
@@rnw2739
The Twin Dilemma was everyone's first impression, that didn't help the perception
"You... killed Peri..."Gets me every time :'(
Russell Tietjen
yeah!! you killed pri . you....YOU BASTARDS!!!!
Collins delivery of this line evokes outrage, sadness, and disgust all in one breath. This is his own people and they killed his friend without a second thought. If there was any justification for him leaving his home planet, it most certainly is this.
This was Colin Baker's best performance. Why he wasn't written like this throughout the rest of his era baffles me.
Check out his Big Finish audios, it continues Colin's journey in the world of Doctor Who.
Blame the scriptwriters and producers.
TehMondasianSpartan Best part is the first 50 Doctor Who Audio dramas are free to listen to on Spotify *without* *subscription* , along with a bunch of Doctor Who spin-off audios.
Because Philip Martin only got 2 stories. His unproduced one from the cancelled season is pretty cool. Big Finish gave us it!
The BBC were deliberately trying to run Doctor Who into the ground to cancel it.
His eyes are so young here ...The Doctors. Look at the pain and loss on his face when he realizes whats happened to Perri...My heart broke. 😔💔
And people think six was cold and emotionless...
Peri*
Oh...The look on his face. "You...killed Peri?" Poor Six. What is wrong with those guys?!
The Time Lords are basically the dudes sat next to you watching an episode of Star Trek asking "so why don't they nuke the planet?"
"... and so they took it upon themselves to act like second-rate gods!"
Awesome moment in an awesome serial. Mindwarp all the way!
I did love Timewarp over the first three segments, it had an evocative atmosphere to it, especially the portrayal of Sil's homeworld.
Great quote by Colin Baker as the 6th Doctor: "And so they took it upon themselves to act like second-rate Gods!?”
Peri and The Doctor's acting here is some of the best acting Dr. Who has ever seen.
Creepy as hell.
Also, brilliant performance by Colin. You can see the Sixth Doctor's usual vigor and confidence just shatter away, as much as he tries to summon it back up somehow, the angry motions of his mouth won't quite reach his eyes.
He was always arguing with Peri, but whenever one of them was in danger the other would seriously freak out, so while Peri wasn't particularly spectacular in her description or acts, the Doctor probably valued her alot for being someone who liked him despite all his edgier bits, in a mutually tsundere-ish way. She was also a lot more useful than she is given credit for. Remember when she and the Doctor took out those guards in unison? When she saved him from that poison gas trap of the Rani's? When she held both the Rani and the Master at gunpoint (although they did, admittedly, escape her)
You note the particulrity of the dynamic when Mel shows up and is basically your typical annoying but cute younger sister figure.
Aaaand then, there's the Valeyard's surgically precise guilt-tripping here...
Yeah JNT kind of buggered up the effectiveness of the Valeyard's guilt tripping with all that amalgamation guff. With the original Holmes/Saward ending the Valeyard just IS the Doctor, no "dark side" nonsense he's guilt tripping his younger self because he feels that guilt himself and wants to force the Doctor to stop all this larking around with lesser species nonsense and grow the fuck up.
As for Mel I get the feeling he thought that picking up someone less likely to argue would be safer after Peri but he forgot that, much like Susan or Victoria, Mel's relatively dull and safe background makes her more likely to go looking for trouble.
She was no younger sister figure at all, lol.
Colin Baker is superb in this. This is The Doctor he was meant to be.
Yes!! He didn't get the writing he deserved
Colin Baker's finest moment on Doctor Who.
Indeed. Nicola Bryant and Brian Blessed were marvellous too.
I love how he's devastated and then he says "no" and then out comes the determination that makes him our hero: "there's another reason --- and I have every intention of finding out what it is!" Hell yeah!
It reminds me of what they ended up doing with the Ninth Doctor when he says no to the Daleks and tells Rose he's coming to get her
Oh my, the way the Doctor delivers that line. "You killed Peri."
Beautiful.
I do like how the Time Lords side-step the real issue here. They say that Crozier's discovery would have affected the Universe too much...what they really meant was that they didn't want the rest of the Universe to gain Time Lord lifespans!
+ShadowSonic2 I know, right? And they have the arrogance to assume that they have the right to meddle and yet that's what they accuse the Doctor of!
A lot of beings live longer than Time Lords. Krotons are pretty much literally indestructible including accidents. What they didn't want is primitive species getting access to that kind of technology and using it to rapidly evolve in the way they did because from the Minyan incident onwards they knew first hand that wasn't a path they wanted anyone to follow them on. The real evil of what is referred to as the Ravalox scandal was the playing ping pong with entire star systems for shits and giggles.
Also interesting how they only acted when they were too late to prevent Peri's death, but that hasn't stopped them from being pre-emptive in the past, like with Genesis of the Daleks or even the first part of Trial of a Time Lord, where they displaced the Earth to prevent those who stole their secrets from escaping, when it would have been a lot less destructive to just send the Doctor to find those that stole said secrets.
@@GiratinaofFury Time Lords rarely act and when they do they tend to over-react. Its part of their charm. They're the guys sat next to you watching a Star Trek TNG episode saying "Why don't they just nuke the planet?"
This scene shows the depths of Colin Bakers acting.....grief palpable with none of the tear ridden histronics of some other Doctors and their reaction to their companion's death. And let's face it, Peri's death of mental dissolution is the worst , imho. Why don't people focus on this rather than his beginning with Peri and the strangulation scene??
It's pretty horrifying.
Cathi Falconwing so crying when someone dies is stupid?
I like how Colin really manages the grief from outright shock to, as the About Time guys put it, 'cold fury.' The end of this episode really shows the Sixth Doctor and how his rage REALLY looks like, and it comes off as damn near frightening. He wasn't angry before, but NOW? And let's give some serious credit to Nicola Bryant, her last work in the role really shows that Peri was underwritten to a horrible extent.
Indeed. As a 10 year old, it was a shocking thought to know that Peri's brain had essentially been 'binned' and replaced with that of the hideous Kiv's. An audacious storyline. Great though.
No one talks about Sara Kingdoms death, she was literally aged to death on the spot by a machine. She goes from her Young Self, Old lady version of herself and then bones. In '60s Who.
2:45 I love how he gets angrier as he continues to talk
To me, this is probably the darkest way a Companion has ever left the show - mental destruction to make way for the mental consciousness of a Space Reptile while the Doctor is helpless to stop it.
Its like in that ending they were apologizing for the joke the Time Lords had become since every serial after of The War Games. Plus Colin's Doctor is probably at the top of his game here. Its just a pity that the BBC fired him before he could actually grow to be liked.
Morbius Fitzgerald But wasn't it revealed that Peri lived and that the matrix (the video of her "death") was tampered with?
A part of me thinks that the Timelords made that up just so The Doctor could still somewhat be willing to do shit for them.
This entire story and season is proof The Matrix can be tampered with so...who knows what really happened?
Morbius Fitzgerald mOk, I did some research and it turns out that the fate of Peri is very confusing.
tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Peri_Brown#Fate
Morbius Fitzgerald Is there a point in time in the old stuff where it wasn't like seven parters back to back?
Anti-HyperLink Classic Season 7 had three 7 part stories back-to-back. (The Silurians, The Ambassadors of Death, and Inferno)
Nicola's acting as Sil was great, I actually got minor chills from this.
*Kiv. Sil was the one who asked for a more attractive one. Sorry... I'm a major Whovian.
PompeiiProductions
Oh, it's okay. I'm a Trekkie so I know the feeling.
Indeed. She's a far better actor than Peri allowed her to demonstrate. Peri was annoying and whiny, but she was written that way. It was only Nicola's charm and talent (and beauty) that made the character tolerable at all.
Silk made me laugh about getting an attractive one
Love Sil’s line in this and Nabil’s delivery is, as ever completely on point
This is such a beautiful and sad moment in Classic who. Colin baker gives a wonderful performance and it's sad to see yet another companion lose there life in front of the doctor....
I like the way Colin acts in this scene
it shows me even more how underrated he was
Peri and The Doctor give excellent acting performances here.
This probably would have been more dramatic without the rubbish screen distortion. Brian Blessed as such a dramatically bombastic actor that he doesn't need an echo effect for his "NOOO" scream.
I can't believe that the Time Lords would make the Doctor watch one of his beloved friends die like that. It's just so cruel.
These are the same people who forced his regeneration and exiled him on Earth as punishment. I can believe it.
@@mainstreetsaint36he was being sarcastic im pretty shure
The crack in Colin's voice as he realises Peri is dead is really good acting
What a moment in Doctor Who history
Colin Baker's finest moment as the Sixth Doctor. Superbly acted
Probably one of the sixth Doctor's best Moments. PRAISE THE DOCTOR!
"I was taken out of time for a reason and I have every intention of finding out what that is". - I love Colin just for this
I had read in a Doctor Who magazine that Peri (Nicola Bryant) liked working with Colin Baker more than Peter Davison. It kind of surprised me at first, But there are some good stories in the 6th Doctor era. I still shed a tear in this story when Peri is killed, but this is the way Nicola wanted to leave the series. She was disappointed when in "The Ultimate Foe" that the Inquisitioner revealed that they found the proper finish and showed Peri marrying Yurcanos.
+Cody Salis I thought the new ending was cute. :)
+Cody Salis Yeah. This is why she liked acting in the Big Finish Audio Story, Peri And the Piscon Paradox, so much. It gave her a new ending she was satisfied with while establishing that both the ending seen in "Mind Warp" and "The Ultimate Foe" happened in two different timelines that exist separate from each other thanks to Time Lord interference.
@William Campbell She had two stories with Davison actually. I can see why she would think that having met both Peter Davison and Colin Baker. Colin Baker is a lovely man.....
Disapointed is an understatement. She refused to watch the new ending for over 30 years then recorded her reaction with Colin Baker by her side. It was something like "well... that was complete bullshit" to which Colin replied "at least in the novel they make a good joke out of it where Peri becomes his agent in WWE."
She had an affair with Peter Davison for a while and later on broken up. It is said this left the pairing of actors a little tenseful against one another and thay they argued often on set.
A very underrated story, if nothing else than for this ending.
I honestly wouldnt mind if we just retconned the retcon of this scene out and just left it with Peri actually dying. Because even Colin Baker says that the "Oh no Peri is still alive" was a pathetic ending, hell Nicola Bryant says that she preferred this ending!
With the way that the situation is set up, it seems like the Time Lady had to be lying. There was no way that King Yrcanos could have restored Peri back to normal.
Well this version of Peri definitely died. Due to the Time Lords' interference there are at least five different versions of Peri. One is even living on Earth with almost all memories of the Doctor, except for her first encounter with him, erased.
Truett Edgell
I think the Valeyard altered this footage, and Peri was never taken over. Yrcanos got her free before all that.
ShadowSonic2
Thats how it turned out, but I don't think anyone can deny (though feel free to dispute this) that has far, FAR less impact than just leaving it with this.
+ShadowSonic2 Yeah she was alive and well and living as a warrior queen with Yrcanos. Colin jokingly said on the commentary that death or living with Brian Blessed was a terrible choice.
Say what you will, Colin Baker was an amazing Doctor in Season 23, his performance during the trial was nothing short of amazing
Hooray!! Brian Blessed! There's someone I'd like to see back on Doctor Who.
This was one of my favorite seasons of Doctor Who. This is fantastic.
habe eiss für mmmm lecker lecker
I love the way the lighting casts shadows over Colin's eyes at the end. The Doctor is PISSED and it's never wise to anger someone who will eventually become known as the most powerful man in the Universe. Heck, I wonder if part of him - the part that manifests as the Valeyard and the Dream Lord - enjoyed wiping out the Time Lords during the Time War and that's why he became so ashamed afterwards.
Hm...
The Valeyard's gaslighting at the end reminds me of Peter Capaldi's Season 8 Doctor. Seriously, has anybody else noticed how often he was gaslighting and projecting his own flaws, mistakes and insecurities onto Clara? At least the Valeyard was established as the bad guy from the beginning.
Even Colin has said that Nicola Bryant was superb here. This possessed Peri could have gone much further
despite having a few 'odd' stories and costume colors that don't fit with his Doctor's persona. Colin Baker did a very fine job at playing 'The Doctor'. It is a shame he was sacked however, if he had the chance to stay on till of 1988 or even by cancellation by 1989 , we may not have had Sylvester Mccoy as 'The Doctor'. But still, a brill Doctor. I wish 'The Valeyard' was brought back for the '7th' doctor to go against. Now that would have been interesting.
I have to admit this caught be my surprise. I sat there the entire time saying “she’s not dead, she will be fine soon” in my head and as soon as the op scene was finished I was speechless. Amazed they actually had the balls to go through with killing off another companion, and it was brilliant
She isn't dead
Blobfish lol, I know now. I had just watched mindwarp and was halfway through trial of a time lord.
The line he says after Peri’s death is perfect probably the best in his era
I remember first watching this when I got it on video during Christmas '94. This story always upset me when I saw it and was always my least favourite of the whole story, but over the years it's become my favourite segment. Some great moments in Mindwarp and to this day remains very underrated.
Terror Of the veriroids was more underrated in my opinion. Its just a fun run around. And face it we needed a light hearted segment after peri's "death".
People always look at the clip from Twin Dilemma of him strangling Peri in a post-regeneration fit and immediately think The Sixth Doctor's relationship with Peri is an abusive one, but if you watched more than just that 2 minutes of Colin's era, you'll know that they did get on (bickering notwithstanding) and this clip pretty much confirms that he did care about her a lot. As much as companions like Rose, Amy or Clara. The Doctor loved Peri just as much as any of them.
Ah! Brian Blessed... Being Brian Blessed!!! :D
David Chandler He makes everything great!
Peri reminds me of that bald-headed woman, Ilia from Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
The Doctor: "You... killed Peri!"
The Inquisitor: "We had to act! With the discovery that Crozier had made, the whole course of natural Evolution throughout the Universe would have affected!"
The Valeyard: "But Peri died, Doctor, because you abandonned her! We had to end her life, because your negligence had made it impossible for her to live!"
The Doctor: "Lies, there's something else going on here! The High Council has no right to order Peri's or anyone else's death!"
The Inquisitor: "Please, Doctor!"
The Doctor: "No, I was taken out of time for another reason and I have every intention of finding out what it is!"
They should have left this ending.
+Doctor Who Fan Officially the two fates of Peri both exist as separate timelines thanks to The Big Finish Audio story Peri and the Piscon Paradox (unless the main show contradicts this , since the Big Finish stuff is considered broadly canon to the show the events from their stories could be retconned out at any moment.)
@@mr.barcode3186 Big of them.
Even though I didn't care too much for parts 6 & 7, this scene along with the Doctor's speech about the Time Lords' corruption and the reveal of the Valyard's true identity in part 13 has to be the best scenes out of the entire "Trial of a Time Lord" story arc. Loved this scene from part 8.
2:43
Best scene for the 6th Doctor
OH YEAH! It's only the frickin brilliant Brian Blessed!
Oh my God!!!! That must have been a pretty traumatising thing for children to see! I mean , it would have been bad enough seeing The Doctor's companion leaving the show but having this happen to a character that many children would have grown to like and would probably have been their favourite companion, must have been pretty shocking . I'd bet the BBC's switch boards were jammed that night with angry parents who were having to deal with an upset child cause The Doctor's assistant Peri had turned evil! I doubt that many companions had departed in such a traumatising way. Not even the death of Adric was that shocking! or at least not in such a horrible way.
The brilliant Brian Blessed , the late great Linda Bellingham and Perri shaven balled as you like! What more do you want! hahahah. (Of course Nicola Bryant sporting the ol rubber skull cap! Not ballsy enough to actually shave her hair off like my mum did when she played Fantomas back in Cuba! hah
I agree. it probably was in 1986 and still sends shivers down my spine each time i see bald peri at 35 years old now it still sends shivers
It's cool that they got Clayton and Boss Nass involved in this.
" Iwish I could have found a more attractive one" I love the written humor they had about Nicola's fine ass 😂😂
Nicola Bryant used her own voice in this and it was the only time that she didn't have to put on that American accent. And personally I think it is an improvement.
I'm just gonna ignore The Ultimate Foe saying that Peri married Brian Blessed and accept this as canon. The Master could've been lying to spare the Doctor's feelings
I really would have preferred that they keep Peri dead, as opposed to the weird ending where she later marries Brian Blessed...
King Yacarnos and Perri cranked out lots of Puppies.
(Lots of Children) 😁
It becomes different with every year and every Doctor that passes. It's what's so wonderful about the show: How it can stay enjoyable with almost every change,
This is one of the reasons why Colin Baker's Doctor is so good this scene shows him at his best here and shows that despite his coat and his attitude at times he IS the Doctor. Another thing this scene does well is shows why you never cross the Doctor because up until this point in the story the Doctor was arrogantly and quite happily going along with this trial thinking he'll easily win now he has been shown Peri's death and that people have been used. He knows now just how serious the high council are and seeing what he saw flicked a switch inside him and made the Doctor angry and upset and no body dare make the Doctor angry and upset! Because well now he really is determined to clear his name and find those responsible and we all know what that means.
Indeed...
I just wish that they did more with the Valeyard. Such wasted potential.
Just a shame we never got Brian Blessed saying 'Peri's Alive?!' :)
Imo, the moment before this truly makes this one of the greatest moments in the entire history of Who - where we see 6 running as fast as he can to save Peri, you know he's gonna get there JUST in the knick of time...and then the TARDIS arrives behind him, he walks in, and is taken to the space station, leading back to the beginning...despite the massive cop-out later, the fact that the writing team even attempted such a brilliant subversion of a classic cliche makes it a truly amazing moment.
3:14 As the old saying goes “Demons run when a good man goes to war.”
I haven't seen it yet (and I intend to), but I've heard that it is one of the best stories, classic or revived.
Colin here... my god. I will never hear a bad word said about Colin Baker and the 6th Doctor. He felt like a hero to me watching as a kid. As did the 7th Doctor.
And people get teary-eyed when they see Rose and the Doctor on a Norwegian beach. Now THIS is a companion departure!
Don't Diss Doomsday.
@@harrytardis2021 Fuck Doomsday!
@@harrytardis2021 I diss Doomsday. :P
I just love how the title doesn't spoil it for anyone who sees it in the thumbnail.
Oh wait...
Anything with Brian Blessed in is always fantastic watching! 😁
"you... killed Peri.."
I have never heard a more broken tone before. shattered my heart into pieces.
his voice tremored and eyes shook that tells me everything
The Master said that the Valeyard had twisted much of the evidence to hurt the Doctor's defense as much as possible. It had been established since The Mysterious Planet, because throughout the whole trial the Doctor had seen corruption and distortion of events. Still, it is a shame they didn't give her this ending, it's more tragic and has a greater emotional impact.
2:46 It's hard to act serious when you look like Willy Wonka.
That was a horrible sinister "death" for a companion. She was great in that scene
I'm obliged to agree with you, I also would of liked to have seen more of Kiv as Peri.
i HATED and still HATE the decision they made to kill off Peri, so glad they don't make those STUPID decisions anymore
this still sends shivers down my spine wen peri is bald
I guess, she just…
Peri-shed
I regret nothing
Nicola Bryant did her own vocals in this scene I believe
Thinking about it, had Ycarnos not been suspended in time whilst the operation took place, Peri would have survived AND Crozier wouldn't have completed the experiment, an experiment the Time Lords later used Ycarnos to destroy when it was completed. Had Ycarnos not been held in stasis, the operation would have failed and Peri would have survived.
So you can see why the Valeyard doctored the evidence from the Matrix; anyone with sense would have seen that Ycarnos could have interrupted the procedure in plenty of time, saving Peri and preventing a crime against nature. The only way to force the Doctor's compliance, or perhaps make him less rational when presenting further testimony, it had to be edited in such a way that made the situation hopeless.
It's also the only Doctor Who DVD I personally own. Couldn't have asked for a better story.
Sure! I'd love to hear it.
And I have every intention of finding out what it is. That line is just so. So amazing. The performance. Just perfect
Brian Blessed, greatest martial artist the world has ever seen!
Arakoth came in like a wrecking ball
The best way of peri dyeing is turning into a cybermen like Lytton in attack of the cybermen.
2:45 and 3:18 Good acting by Colin Baker.
Oh I agree. The effects are quite amazing for classic who. Good story too
I have had ones that I liked more than others, but they all seem to grow on me eventually in one way or another.
Glad to hear it. I'd start with Remembrance of the Daleks, if I were you, it's a great watch with a great musical score, great action, and the best special effects of the Classic Series.
And for the first time in 3 years Nicola Bryant is given some decent dialogue,she is alowed to drop the accent and she really shines! Why miss Bryant you are more than just a pretty face!
‘Head. Free of pain.’
I have a headache.
Yeah he does that well. How they've kept Sherlock locked down too is amazing
Fortunately, we found out later that Peri didn't die after all. She was saved by King Ycranos, who made her his queen.
Still upsets me, 35 years later.
Fair point. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.
There were so many great moments I can't decide which was best. The moments where the first three Doctors squabble like children, the Brigadier's "Nice to see you again!", the Raston Warrior Robot, the Cybermen's interactions with the Master, the Dalek chasing One and Susan down a corridor, the Second Doctor's interactions with the Brigadier, the Doctors saying goodbye, the Doctors vs Borusa, just too many!!
(Valeyard starts blaming the doctor for peri's death) me-OH SHUT UP!!! I ALREADY HATE YOU WITH EVERY FIBER OF BY BEING, YOU WRETCHED,DESPICABLE CREATURE!! I DONT NEED ANOTHER REASON TO WANT TO DESTROY YOU!!!
The Forgotton Companion that's all the nu who doctors apart from 9 combined.
Well Jodie Whittaker is a great actor, so there's a chance. Chris Chibnall, on the other hand...
"You killed Peri... You BASTARDS!!!"
You can see the doctors sadness as his peri is gone… 😢😢
True. Altough, I've read arguments that the valeyard is actually the meta-crisis Doctor played by David Tennant in "Journey's End" and "The Stolen Earth".
In the audio Commentary of this story:
Colin Baker: But the program has been told to cut down on violence and add humour for this season...
And you, you gave us all that, so, thanks Philip...
Philip Martin: So wait, you mean that, you mean the death of Peri isn't funny?
Colin Baker: Another fine mess you got us into!
Philip Martin: Oh God!
Oh well, I suppose we have to try again...
Actually Davison was always my favorite Doctor until last season. Smith changed my mind with the Rings of Akhaten. Now they're tied
He was my first, I came in with Tomb of the Cybermen and The Five Doctors, and I really would like to see more of his era, especially the Dalek stories.
We never actually saw Sil die...
I'd love to see the Mentors return. Peri's voice as Kiv sounds kind of like Trent Reznor's unused performance as the commando zombies for Doom 3... heh, pitch distortion + ham = awesome. 'Course the influence if it was there would be the other way around, this obviously came first.
I didn't like how they undid Peri's death at the end, because that was a huge emotional moment and one of Colin Baker's best performances. But who knows, even the high council of the Time Lords has been known to be wrong.
I agree the mentors in the new series but the next generation of actors. hope they cast more disabled actors like nabil shaban he is a disabled actor and he could be the old mentor
Yes, absolutely
