I'm glad the 8th Doctor got his moment in modern Doctor Who. Even as a short runup to the 50th anniversary, McGann killed it with his performance. I only wish it was included as part of the whole 50th anniversary episode, and not just a lead in to it.
"Will it hurt?"
"Yes."
*"Good."*
I wish RTD had brought him back for the 60th 💔
(Even in just a minor role)
He is actually coming back for a spin off series on the bbc iplayer
It would have worked great as a cold open to the episode
"Will it hurt?"
I never noticed that pun until today :)
Imagine if he was the fourth doctor in the 50th so we had one to represent the Doctor before the war (or before fighting in it). Same with the power of the Doctor. Absolutely loved his minor role but he also could have been given a bigger one with the 60th on the horizon.
"You know what, so was I." yes you were, Eccleston. My first Doctor. The first one I watched, and the one who got me to love the show.
❤❤❤
I was already completely sold on the new series by the time Eccleston was done...but that moment really nailed it. The moment the writers showed their hand, that the Doctor was seeking...not forgiveness, not redemption, but just a reason to remember everything good he could be. And he'd found it. He'd found a reason to be proud of himself again, believe in himself again.
Same for me and my family.
Same here!
Same here, He's still my favorite
I know people wanted 12 to regenerate at the end of The Doctor Falls. But, I love Twice Upon a Time and glad he regenerated then. He learned to accept change and keep going after his final battle with the Cybermen
Absolutely agree, I loved it
I loved seeing the 12th Doctor and the First Doctor together! It was a great episode.
I tried to link Jody’s Doctor. That “forced regeneration” thing with the, IMO, zero talent or charisma Master sealed the deal for me. The Master has to have something that draws the audience besides pure vile and hatred; and he has to be able to act. Well. That is just me. I did watch some more but that is pretty much when they lost me. Thrilled for some David Tennant infusion with Catherine Tate upcoming.
Love the stuff with Paul M. ! ❤️
I wanted 12 to regenerate into 14 at the end of Twice Upon a Christmas but we don't get what we want.
Love how the 13th doctor had the sense to regenerate outside of the tardis.
To be honest
U do have a point
Like nearly every modern day Docter has done it on the tardis, but she did it outside
I bet the tardis would be thinking
‘Oh thank god I’m not getting blown up again…. I’ve lost count,’ lol
I know right. Guess after falling from space she was like nope going out on land
I just love that the 13th doctor regenerated
Last time she regenerated outside the Tardis (not counting the forced one) was during the time war. Oof
@@anthonym9977 he*
Paul McGann's regeneration was outstanding! I know it's been said many times but we missed out on a superb Doctor.
Each regeneration still breaks my heart; original or new.
The Modern Regeneration style may be known as the gold glow along with the high pitched sound effect, but there has been at least some variation between each version if you look close enough. For example the Eighth Doctor's regeneration looks quite simplistic compared to his future ones, the Ninth Doctor's looked like a yellow version of the time vortex, the Tenth Doctor's regeneration was like watching a volcano erupt, the Twelfth Doctor's slow motion regeneration effect appeared more as wavy lines like watching a lightning bolt, and the regenerations in the Chibnall era looking more like an orange river with how the particles flowed.
The only downside to the Eleventh Doctor's regeneration effects were that the camera was very shakey that it was difficult to see it clearly, but also the actual change was a small light up around the Doctor's neck and the change happened off screen.
Imo the classic who was better. The doctor would be weak and collapse. This created drama and some mystery. I find the fact that a mortally wounded doctor has to stand upright , stretch out arms and make a speech! This mini episode is well acted and well written .
@@johnmorris2414ok good for you
11 I always considered as he did his regeneration fighting the daleks- it was just so much energy that the actual change took time- and why he didn’t do exploding regen because he already had done it.
Also, special mention of the Master's rainbow regeneration in "Utopia".
8th doctor's last words: Physician, heal thyself
War doctor's last words: Wearing a bit thin. I hope the ears are a bit less conspicuous this time.
9th doctor's last words: rose before I go I just wanna tell you that you were fantastic absolutely fantastic and you'd know what? So was I!!!!!!!!
10th doctor's last words: I don't wanna go!!!!!
11th doctor's last words: When the doctor was me
12th Doctor's last words: Doctor I let you go
13th Doctor's last words: right then Doctor whoever I'm about to be tag you're it
Final words of the doctor 😢
Mate, you put in all of 9th's statement, but not 11' s "I will never forget when the doctor was me"? It's shorter than both 13's and 9's final words, come on 😂
@@Rocksteady72a It would have taken up most of the page and I didn't want to give one of the doctors more dialogue than the others Plus people love the ninth doctor
@@2429Ryanspeer As stated, there are 2 others that are longer than his...
Technically the 11th Doctor’s final word was a quiet comforting “hey” for Clara
"tag, you're it" was such a great line for her Doctor
The exclusion of Mels turning into River is criminal.
Don’t forget the Master Doctor regenerating back into Thirteen, Tecteun’s regeneration, the Timeless Child’s first regeneration and Melody Pond’s (River) first regeneration in New York City.
Peter Capaldi's regeneration was the best one for me. After everything he went through, he was a good man.
11 is always gonna be my doctor, but my god is 12’s regeneration the absolute best the show ever produced. The tardis noises and the angelic singing
I love the music used when Jodie regenerated into David 44:47
Aptly named "Thirteen" . A beautiful score.
@@hotdog1214actually the song that played during that scene is aptly names “She’s The Doctor” it’s one of my favourite pieces of score and is easily some of Akinola’s best work on his brief time on the show :)
@@brewster_4 kinda, I think that sorta undermines a lot of the build up to the end of the piece, the melancholy of the track inspires optimism for the future a long with the mourning of the doctor we’re about to lose during her final moments, but you are right in that it’s very heavily influenced but Thirteen, which helps the 13th doctor come full circle in terms of sound design and soundtrack
(25:16 - 35:11) The 10th and 11th Doctor both have by far the saddest regenerations in New Doctor Who.
Starts and ends with legendary comebacks. McGann's modern redemption minisode and the glorious return of David's spikey hair 😂 at least he gets the right hair in an anniversary special
Got to love Tennant returning with the classic triple "what!?"
I always love seeing David Tennant back in action! To save the best for last!
i absolutely love the sheer amount of confusion in his increasingly sharp "what!?"s
i had no idea Tennant was coming back for one so i was "what!?"ing right along
The fact that these are not in chronological order is infuriating to me.
I will always remember when Matt was the Doctor. I hope he returns in 60th maybe in Wild Blue Yonder.
That Matt Smith one gets me every time. 😭💞
I know the speech by heart and it makes me cry every single time 😩😩😩🥺💔
I want the 14th Doctor’s regeneration to be either “Allons-y”or “I’m ready to go”.
Allons-y
26:44 “I don’t wanna go” 😢😢
Still to this day I can't stand how fast 11 changed to 12. The monologue was fantastic but really needed time afterwards to let you feel the sadness. I felt the tears come but then boom 12 was already there before I could shed one.
He had already regenerated in the scene before when he destroyed the Daleks. He was holding 12 back to say one last goodbye, so technically its one of the longest regenerations
It's interesting that the modern style of regeneration started with the 8th Doctor, almost as if the Time Lords altered it in the Time War to protect themselves...
Couldn't be the potion. It happened with the Master and other timelords as well@henryandrews700
Sylvester had the last unique regeneration into Paul, with the blue lightning, face gurning and bone crunching into a new face.
Making them all look the same I suppose makes it easier to film and gives a standard look, but I miss the creativity and unique changes like Tom and Peter had.
I know what you mean, it makes to sense to have a default setting as it were but there's something charming about each iteration of production having to come up with something new and creative for each regeneration. Something that someone pointed out to me the other day is that in Classic Who each Doctor 'died' before regenerating, whereas in NuWho they are 'dying' and then regenerate before the point of death. I feel silly for not noticing it before but now cannot unsee it! I don't mind the golden energy but wish they'd at least try something different than the T pose at least once in a while (11 to 12's sneeze regeneration not withstanding) 😁😁
Classic who regeneration the doctors that died or were unconscious before regenerating were 1, 3, 6 and 7, the others 4 and 5 were alive but dying as they changed, but down on the floor The death before a change makes their end feel final and sad. Only 2 we didn’t see onscreen sadly.
Ok, hear me out. Hartnell's regen was in black and white, so it could've been orange even if it looked white. Same case with Troughton's. Pertwee's was just a fade, but that may have been bc What's-His-Name "gave it a little push." Baker's was cocooned in The Watcher, so the orange explosion was concealed. Davidson's was concealed by the purple hallucination-y stuff, but you could see orange bleeding through. Baker's used to be blue, but was changed to orange later on. McCoy's had a little bit of orange energy, but we know his regeneration was affected by the anesthetic of the surgery. So, yeah. The regen effects have always been consistent.
I love Nine and Ten’s because they’re the absolute peaks of opposing ends of the emotional spectrum.
Nine was cold and alone, bitter, vengeful, regretful and hesitant but by chance meets Rose, just an ordinary bored human inspired by the universe to try and be more, to be better, like he was in his beginnings, and she heals his tattered psychosis. Before Nine the Doctor didn’t really know or care for love.
He allowed kinship and socialisation but was still starkly alien. In allowing love’s help, he is able to die dignified and renewed, optimistic and most of all unafraid, as he knows the process will be more traumatising for his friend. So he reassures her in the little time he has left.
Ten meanwhile accrues the most friends of any Doctors and further allows the excitement and fun love provides, but by the end of his life absolutely nothing remains. One after the other, everything is taken from him swiftly and cruelly.
Rose, Jackie and the redeemed Mickey the Idiot are separated from him eternally beyond unbreakable boundaries. Martha is unsatisfied by unrequited love and seeks it elsewhere. Astrid sacrifices herself for the greater good along with many others on the Titanic. Donna saved the universe but cannot know, nor ever remember her best friend or the wonderful things they saw and did. Adelaide defies his shattered morals and kills healed to maintain rightful order. Wilfred would rather the Doctor allowed him to give his life to save him, thinking himself expendable.
In the end, he takes one final look at them all shining without him and ponders if he could ever face loss again, coming to terms with a solemn loneliness unlike any other. He didn’t want to move on, he wanted to right every unjust wrong he faced and become the best of himself, but there was no time left. It could not be helped. He faced his end afraid, totally alone, with the weight of guilt and sadness sharpening the pain into a dagger straight through his hearts.
That's a good way to put it. Nine started alone but regenerated unafraid with Rose by his side. Tenth started with Rose, moved on to other companions after she left, but regenerated alone and scared.
I always liked the slight 'jaw morph' effect from 9 to 10.
2:52 "And all the other companions I probably had but can't remember due to constant memory loss..."
26:42 probably made everyone cry it even made me cry and I'm a tough cookie to brake
I’m so glad McGann is included in this!!
I love how they said that they didn't want Jodie to regenerate into David with him wearing women's clothes because he will look silly; and then put the Master into Jodie's clothes.
I thought that it was because David wouldn't be able to fit in Jodies clothes XD
But hey, at least (according to the trailers) we may see the doctor in a skirt XD (before getting his actual clothing). And we also see the new doctor without pants.
@@rogueninja4719 that, my friend, is not a skirt. That's a Kilt. It's a piece of Scottish traditional clothing. At least, that's my theory
I like the modern regeneration but I’d like to see it go back to the older way once in awhile too. I liked when he was surrounded by his friends like when Tom Baker regenerated at the end of Logopolis. Switch it up and have each regeneration be a bit different. Have David’s Doctor in the upcoming specials be hugging Donna or her daughter or both. There’s a flash of light and we see Ncuti has arrived. It would be a nice way to pay tribute to the original series along with the the new series at the same time.
@@obiwankenobi687 what's wrong with classic regeneration? He was surrounded by his loved ones. Switch it up and make it something like where he starts to explode but then falls or almost falls and is surrounded by friends then he flashes orange and changes.
It doesnt need to look great, just has to be impactful and let us know The Doctor is changing.
Dr. Donna...
@@obiwankenobi687it’s 2023, I think they can find a way to make regenerations in style of the older ones that look good. The gold glow/ tardis crashing is boring. It worked so well for 10/11th that it feels like a crutch now.
@@obiwankenobi687How about a combo of both? Keep the glowing energy but shake it up, maybe not always standing up for example. One of my favourite classic regens is five to six, all the swirly companion faces, so that modernised could be cool
I used to be of the same opinion but, after ‘The Night of the Doctor’, my head-cannon is that this regeneration energy is a byproduct of what was given to The Doctor by the Sisterhood of Karn - like a side effect - evidenced by McGann’s Doctor being the first of the ‘Modern Regenerations’. Thus it’s always brutal and painful and perhaps why all the (modern) Doctors are so reluctant to change.
When you realise that every doctor since 10 has had a regeneration fake out (mainly for the trailers) before they actually regenerated 😅
I hate that. The Metacrisis should have been the only time they did that because they did the most interesting thing with it.
But otherwise it just cheapens what should be a grave moment.
Why I love doctor who, the enotion that comes out in the regeneration. So emotional and no matter the doctor I will always have tears coming down my face
matt smith regen made me cry😭😭😭
Does anyone else think that the destructiveness of a regeneration has to do with how long that iteration lived? Nine had only been around for like a year or 2 after he regenerates from War. 10 was active for much longer, and 11 spent over a thousand years on Trensalor before regeneration, and he blew up the daleks with his.
10 only lived for 6 years though, and he absolutely exploded. Then again, he also held on to the regeneration for as long as he possibly could, and so did 12. 11 was stuck dying of old age, long after where he would have regenerated naturally, so maybe that's what it is. Holding back the regeneration makes it more destructive. 13 didn't try to hold it back, instead accepting it, same as 9. Neither of them made any where near as much of a mess.
My theory is that in regeneration every cell in the body must be destroyed all at once and in an instant in time, but there is a small build up of time sensitive cells that slip through the process that eventually result in the process fatally failing the 13th time, the new set of regenerations destroys these cells, and a huge amount of energy is needed, also that energy is usually contained in some way, 11 was releasing the full brunt of it against the daleks.
@zarrg5611 This theory is disproven by the Timeless Child. The whole 13 regeneration was a myth made up by the Time Lords. Most likely the reason why 11 wasn't regenerating was because he thought the myth was true, and was subconsciously rejecting his regeneration. And we know that regeneration is voluntary because the Master stopped himself from regenerating so he could die in the 10's arms as a "f**k you" to him.
My favorite Doctor is back!
i see 10s Vale Decam regeneration and i instantly break no matter how many times i see this regeneration i always break, David Tennant the BEST Doctor he OWNED the role
Honestly I loved the scene with the 8th Doctor, where it was a moment of "why me?" "you're last here" where I'm CERTAIN it was a GREAT mystery filled event that made my mind go wild with theories right down to feeling like it was a Star Trek Crossover at some point.
it feels like every Doctor regen gets progressively more powerful...
37:47 Did you notice the 4 knocks asap the Master is regarded how clever
I think David Tennant's final regeneration broke me the most, because that damn music was so heartbreaking
Peter regeneration speech is the best speech in the history of doctor who in my opinion
Definitely the best person to have played the Doctor
11's first regeneration just looked extra crispy. Imagine if they manage to sneak in a new Doctor like that - our mines would have been blown. Of course, he would have missed one of his best seasons, but still
Please give the 8th doctor his own series he deserves it
Audio dramas my friend.
25:07 This still hurts to watch even today
18:30 give props to the only Dalek sensible enough to shoot the Doctor on sight.
Wonder if he got a promotion afterwards
@@pranavr4017I have news for you
'Physician Heal Thyself' Absolutely love McGann's line
I cried buckets when Smith changed.
Fun fact right before 11 regenerated and was walking up the stairs in the tardis, and you only saw his shoes, that was originally supposed to be the reveal of 12. They changed it and reshot it so 11 could say goodbye.
Such a dumb decision.
Two regenerates they forgot to add Melody's regeneration and the 2nd Mels Regeneration from Lets kill Hitler
It would have been better if a timelinehad been followed instead of jumping around from doctor to doctor.
Didn't we miss some of the Master's regenerations or were they not always shown?
Despite the lack of order it was a good clip show and refresher course in Regeneration 2.0
(Regeneration Course 1.0 covers the first 7 regenerations.)
For a change, I’d like to see a regeneration with a swirling tornado type effect making its way from the Doctor’s feet to his head and ….. WHOOSH!
Yes, and I'd like to see one caused by a talking cabbage that turns out to be The Master.
@27:55 matt smith saying nose will always crack me up
honestly, the 13th Doctor's final words make more sense when you realize that Chibnall and the BBC were literally not even sure if the show was going to continue past that point. no new actor or writer lined up, the 80s all over again. for all the writing woes of his era, i'm very thankful Chris managed to convince Davies to come back. i would've taken another era headed by Chibnall than have no more Doctor Who.
Nah, it would've been painful.
Another Chibnall era would've sealed its end, at the rate that it was going. On another note, Chris didn't convince David or anything like that - the BBC literally chose RTD as his successor rather than letting Chibnall choose his own because he lost that much faith in being able to manage the future of the show.
@@Rocksteady72ahe didn't lose any faith, that's just how BBC Studios runs things, they make those decisions.
The problem is barely anyone wants the job, because it is so demanding and thankless and of course: the scrutiny.
@@friendlyotaku9525I would make modern who like the classics with modern formula mixed in with the old
The 10th doctors regeneration is my favourite and also eleven.
Even though it would be very risky (in part because of how much Doctor Who has fallen into tropes), I wish one regeneration would be a case of the Series 4 one but instead goes straight into the next incarnation, maybe by having the series beforehand building up to the idea that the Doctor would regenerate in the finale for the sake of getting a full goodbye like the other incarnations but then go into the next series as themselves only to have an important episode part way through where they need to regenerate and then just continue the adventure as the next incarnation.
Fantastic. Sad. Love regeneration keeps show going. Lifelong fan
Best thumbnail of all time
Nice video of all the regeneration scenes. The order feels kinda random. Not sure what the purpose of this ordering system is of the regeneration scenes? Is there one, or are they just kind of randomly scattered throughout the video?
It appears (frustratingly) random sadly.
All of the Doctor’s regenerations from 8-13 are in order. The rest are just randomly spliced in between.
Capaldis is so sad seeing as Chibnail forced him out
God I miss Gwen Cooper, she could have her very own series imo. Possibly working along side other organisations and finding/working with the other torchwoods 😮 there was mention of other torchwood institutes out there, this is such a good plan for other series' now that the whoniverse is expanding.
Was there much point posting this when Dave's regen is 1 month away
it's so they can do an updated version later, of course!
i suppose it's also just good for building hype for the specials, but that's beside the point
@@highway_roadkill exactly why make this when they'll need to update it soon
@@WizardaronThey’re probably going to do another video afterwards but they’re specifically only referring to 2005-2022 as modern and 2023 as something else.
@@jdogman yeah I'm still wondering what it'll look like on iplayer
13:39 radiohead the bends
Because of blackmail from CZcams-France, I can no longer watch your videos : but I can continue to like.
Hope this means we're getting a different regeneration effect for 'The Giggle'.
I hope not.
Still so upsetting but I'm glad my favorite is coming back..
I loved Clara as a companion, idk why people hated her. Jenna Coleman is just too damn cute
38:45 never noticed the cobwebs before 😂 does that mean there's regenerating spiders looming about the Tardis?
HA longest time I always feel Capaldi Dr influenced Rick and Morty. and at 15:57 I like the idea just him telling Clara He did, but instead just accidental/incidental death between them. Where I'm sure the General just needed to regen around that time.
I'd love to see a couple of seasons with McGann as the Doctor, hes great here.
Donna was definitely the best companion, because she was a mate.
The two old men (War and 12) are the only ones to keep their eyes open as they regenerate. So 9 and 13 were the only Doctors to come into the universe with eyes wide open
Sort of fits with the character’s personality
❤
Best show ever
We need some variation. None of the regenerations in the classic era looked the same. The modern style looked awesome when Eccleston changed into Tennant but it's gotten played out. That's why I loved how it was just a quick flash when Smith changed into Capaldi.
I wondered if you were going to include Lenny Henry, Rowan Atkinson and the other Comic Relief Doctors in the lineup, just to be completist!
That Amelia hit so hard, I don't know why.
Tenth Doctor still hurts me
McGann is the man here, great performance,
River, Tecteun and the Timeless Child’s regenerations should be included too.
I hope the 14th doctor will say "im ready now, next one come on up!..."
You missed melody , Mels and 13 changing back from the master
Nice!
These kinda VFX looks better than the rgenerations of the past. They must keep it looking like this FOREVER.
Can someone explain to me what all the extra out-of-order non-regeneration scenes were about? Why they were included, and why in that order?
Obviously John Hurt is a legend, but I still maintain that Paul McGann should have been the war doctor. He's a true talent, even in the 5 minutes of well deserved love he gets in the run up to the 50th.
Always thought adding regenerations to the 13th doctor was a lazy plot. I'd just let him regenerate leaving it a mystery why he was able to do it after the 13th.
Then I sent 14 to look for an answer to it and the only answer was "you're not 14, you're 17." Leaving an even bigger mystery.
In Time of the Doctor the Doctor was given a new regeneration cycle
and i call it "lazy plot"@@friendlyotaku9525
Why wasn’t melody ponds regeneration included in this 😢
Hey BBC! Release 'Torchwood: Absent Friends'
That's Big Finish though.
The scene with Lake Silence really gave us the biggest clue he wasn't dead. He had no regenerations so it was all a ruse.
We didn’t knew back then there wasnt a War Doctor and that the Journey’s End Metacrisis counted as a full on regeneration.
So yeah, it was still a mystery
@@joseegues5717 Series 6 has some of the worst writing in the entire show.
Though since the Doctor was apparently the basis for regeneration tech, did he even actually need a new cycle.
@@Xehnic UH UH NO WAY. You are NOT bringing that Chinball Timeless Child CRAP into this discussion. It's not Canon.
💚💚💚
RTD, I know You may be able to read this comment. Please serve Paul McGann some justice and star him as The Doctor in a Multi-Doctor Episode, like what past writers did in The Day of The Doctor, The Three Doctors, and The Five Doctors
The 11th generation was emotional
I liked my own comment
so did I!

@@DevPiggWhat😂
@@DevPigg🤨
on lake silencio, the doctor shouldn't have even been able to regenerate if the rules he stated at the end of his last episode were true
The war doctor wasn't even thought of before then.
Going from the best to slowly going downhill and to the cursed number 13. I dont think anyone could have predicted that the Thirteenth Doctor would have been the worst Doctor. 13 however, is a very unlucky number.
13 isn't the worst Doctor, there is no "worst" Doctor. All of them are brilliant

I kinda miss it being a different effect each time.
Pears I hate Pears
I just rewatched the caves of androzani part 4. I’m gonna rewatch time and the Rani part 1 tomorrow. Anybody know what I’m doing?
Kind of. I’m actually just watching all the regeneration episodes. I’m also including the meta crisis regeneration, because I feel like there’s going to be quite a lot of stuff related to that.
@henryandrews700 The Doctor mentioned in the trailer about what would happen if Donna remembered him. That’s kind of relevant.
Doctor no more
