I don't know how many readers of this blog are Doctor Who fans, or have been following the current series with David Tennant, but here's a 7 min. "minisode" done for British charity wherein the current Doctor encounters one of his previous incarnations. If you're not familiar with Doctor Who, this will just be 7 minutes of two Brits spouting technobabble at each other at high speed.
Well, here it is – until the BBC has YouTube delete it:
Hopefully, the BBC will include this on the Series 4 DVDs.
Anyway, I very much like David Tennant in the role, and Peter Davison is probably my second-favorite Doctor (after the late Jon Pertwee), so I enjoyed this a lot. I particularly like the clever way that writer Steven Moffat accounted for Peter Davison's aging and the new interior of the TARDIS.
You know, I really need to get that Five Doctors Special Edition DVD...
Thanks for that. I'm a big Who fan but didn't realize that had turned up yet.
ReplyDeleteI thought the ending to the second Tenant season was stunning.
Still waiting on my Series 3 DVDs – but I thought Tennant's first season was great, and am anxious to see more.
ReplyDeleteI could never get into Dr. Who.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching Tennant's first season on BBC America. Fun stuff. But this... kind of odd.
ReplyDeleteI think they did a real good job. Frankly I was kind of worried it wouldn’t work but they proved me wrong and poulled it off masterfully.

I thought they did a good job blending in Tennant's appreciation of Peter Davison's Doctor. Apparently Tennant grew up watching Doctor Who when Davison was on, so Davison really was his favorite.
