Number 1 still my favourite! Thanks for having me back ✨

[@bobbybobstar1496]

Everyone else was busy making videos that haven't already been made years ago by literally every doctor who channel ever

[@brybalaton-chrimes7550]

Crispy!!! You stole my dream job! I’m equal parts jealous and kinda stoked that you’re on who culture! I think I could be pushed firmly into stoked if you start saying moffat’s last name right! Lucky we love you anyway!

[@andrewcornwell4943]

My favorite thing is logging onto KZbin to watch something to pass the time and there’s a brand new WhoCulture video. 🤪

[@luciadwhpanimallover9222]

Nice catch. One of the things i never noticed before re watching is you know when Clara’s tells the doctor in under the lake that he basically he took apart the radio to build a clockwork squirrel. That squirrel is on top of 12s guitar amplifier in before the flood

[@Pencliff]

It's nice to hear Crispy again! That WW2 Dalek detail is great, I never noticed that but it just makes sense

[@CrispyPro]

Wooohooo!

[@brianartillery]

The Dalek blackout covers... They are on the action figures of them. One has them, one does not. Both have the Union Flag where their nametag should be. That's a nice touch, for about 1/12 scale.

[@zacharydanielschawelson8708]

Hear me out all the way through, though it is a HUGE stretch: Let’s assume Clara’s mom died during the auton invasion during Rose. We know that Clara enters the doctor’s time-stream and appears all throughout his life. So, theoretically, it is possible that Clara had gone back to the auton invasion and had to figure out whether she could save her mother or not, she could’ve run into a younger version of herself, etc. there’s a whole storyline here!!

[@Croftice1]

I don't think that's what they implied with the Impossible girl. Since Clara stepped into the Doctor's timestream, she had to be in his vicinity, so no wander of to do her own business. During the Auton attack the 9th Doctor was speaking with the Nestene Conscience, so he wasn't at the point of Clara's mum's death, thus wasn't Clara either. She entered the Doctor's timestream to save HIM, no one else.

[@hollymatton474]

I love the concept of having Clara's mum being killed by the autons during their attack in the series 1 episode Rose! There's also a prequel minisode before the series 7 episode The Bells of Saint John where people believe that at the end where the younger clara is talking to her mum, someone in the background in the park they're in shouts out "jackie", which would be rose's mum. There is also two kids who run past the eleventh doctor and the younger clara when they're on the swings who resemble a young rose and mickey. A lot of people believe that clara grew up either on or near the Powell Estate so she possibly knew of rose and mickey and ellie oswald may have even spoken to jackie tyler at some point. Who knows though, it's probably unlikely, but a fun theory! 😂 Great video Crispy and Who Culture! 😊

An after years, I finally notice the museum in Big Bang is the National Museum Cardiff. The same museum from Vincent and the Doctor.

[@JB-ys8ct]

I could be wrong but I think its also the same museum they used for the Mona Lisa episode in SJA

[@drtrustrum]

It is mostly filmed in Cardiff you know.

Glad to hear Crispy here too. Great list btw.

[@CrispyPro]

Woooo!!!

[@arthurjohnson3288]

One thing i just realised is that in the bells of saint john they are looking for the TARDIS, and they say that earls court was an embarrassment, this is a reference to the fact that earls court contains the one of the only remaining police boxes in london, and in fact on google maps, you can go inside!

[@maxweston3104]

In the Bell’s of Saint John, the book Clara hands that child is written by Amelia Williams (Amy Pond)

[@IlikeTrainsguy100]

And even better, that book actually exists. I've read it a few times already, it's fantastic

[@curtismckenley8706]

[@kazzagreen84]

Awesome job crispy. The only one I've actually noticed before was the Magpie Electricals.

[@CrispyPro]

Thank you!

[@revcleverbeast2167]

That Magpie reference omg I didn't connect but I felt something 😮😮

[@Capohanf1]

Working as a set decorator/prop master on a few low budget films for a production company, I always try and put in a few Easter Eggs. Like in one movie we had zombies and in the last scene one of them had an arm fall off. I still remember the EWWS! and YUCKS! when the scene was played for the public! I kept the prop and in our next film there was a scene in a workshop that had a table saw in frame. SO I put the severed arm on the table saw.

[@WhoCulture]

Add a picture of the WhoCulture logo somewhere in the background of a shot, go on, you know you want to...

[@Morphed626]

This is a great video, so many Easter eggs I’ve missed!

[@90sArchive]

Wow, I actually missed most of these. Great video

[@nathanjordon6950]

I'm pretty sure magpie even made appearances in the spinoffs. Don't count me on that one though.

[@brianartillery]

Some Magpie equipment, along with Dalek 'Tommy guns' can be seen in Torchwood's Cardiff HQ.

[@beatleshomie6954]

Oh man Crispy Pro i never knew you worked with Who Culture!!

[@CrispyPro]

We're besties hehe

[@null_verdict]

For Magpie Electricals, the logo is even on the back of the Eleventh Doctor's TARDIS monitor in his first console room. Not sure why the TARDIS would have an Earth branded bit of tech, but it's a fun little Easter egg

[@WhoCulture]

Yeah that's very strange - good catch!

[@battlesheep2552]

Yeah, I mean isn't all the stuff inside the TARDIS supposed to be grown from Block Matrix Calculus or something?

[@1927deano]

The old coral console was compiled of bits and pieces the doctor used to replace parts that had broken over time using earth technology, perhaps some of that could have been reintegrated for the following copper console

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Oh these were fabulous but I'm really taken with the last one, that's incredibly well done 😮😍❤️

[@MorningDusk7734]

1:12 that's not the only connection, I believe there was a line by the Master talking about Lazarus' machine, I think in reference to the big post-resurrection special.

[@Croftice1]

It's not the "post-resurrection" aka The end of time part 1 and 2, it's during the "year, that never was" aka The sound of drums, when the Master first uses his laser screwdriver to supress the Doctor's regeneration and artificially age him in the process, he talks about the Lazarus experiment as being incorporated into the screwdriver.

[@Sci-Fi9131]

Second! Also, this is a great video! Well done on it, and I always really enjoy WhoCulture and TrekCulture, as they always act as a nice, comforting channel!

[@TheValeyard92]

I mean, I spotted three of these on first viewing(s). And a further two on subsequent viewings. *But* that's five things I didn't spot, so 👍

[@VinnieBartilucci]

I've long been of the opinion that the "classic TARDIS" we've seen in so many recent episodes are all the one they made for An Adventure in Space and Time, and they just kept it for whenever they need a retro model.

[@jeffwalker7185]

I agree - although the Tardis console prop in An Adventure in Space and Time was painted a lime green. This was correct for the era as it was to ensure it appeared white when filmed on black and white film stock. They must have painted the console for modern day use in Doctor Who. I am really pleased they brought back the classic era console. I personally prefer it to the more elaborate Tardis set of new era Who.

This is the first fact video ive seen where the circle saying (you missed) is NOT click bait AND actually shows in the video 👏 Maybe its just the videos i end up coming across idk haha Enjoyed this tho

[@just_kos99]

SPOILER from classic Doctor Who ahead! I told my sister, a nuWhovian only, that since she doesn't watch the classic series she's missed the meaning of at least a couple of things in the current series (both from "The Stolen Earth"): 1. One of the missing planets is "Calufrax Minor." Now, when Calufrax is mentioned in Douglas Adams' "The Pirate Planet", it doesn't have "Minor" on it but the 4th Doctor knows the planet/moon, says it's a "icy, cold tiny little world" (paraphrasing). So the 10th Doctor must know what happened to Calufrax! (And that it wasn't stolen by the Daleks.) 2. When 10 and Donna first discover the Earth is gone but the TARDIS is in the same point in space, the Doctor mutters to himself how he'd only seen this happen one time before. That references the first story in "The Trial of a Time Lord", Sixth Doctor, after the Time Lords shift the Earth two light years from its current position. At least the Daleks had the decency to put a protective shell around the planet!

Well, this comment certainly took a turn!

[@tracyroweauthor]

Pretty much EVERYONE noticed Ellie's death date in Rings of Akhaten. Martha also had a Magpie Electricals tv in The Sound of Drums. As 10 scans the internet in The Runaway Bride the Magpie logo pops up, River Song uses a Magpie scanner in Day of the Moon, Voyage of the Damned features a Magpie-branded microphone and 11's new console monitor, typewriter, keyboard and one of the controls are branded Magpie Electricals. In The Idiot's Lantern the tv arials are shaped like Swastikas I didn't even notice the Harry Potter book! I did notice the Doctor in the museum in The Big Bang

[@GravesRWFiA]

It's not quite this but in the original Who- Ther Terror of the Zygon's the brigadier early on tells the Doctor "You know, Just once i'd like to face an alien menace that isn't immune to bullets." At the climax of the story-as the zygon leader is strangling doctor #4, he's stopped by the brigadier-empitying his pistol into the monster-who wasn't immune to bullets.

The "first/final" thing was just a misspeak. How can I (especially I) judge that? But.... The Playstation 2 was my favorite console ever. What are you trying to say? P.S. I don't like hearing "Ellie" and "death" so close together. Makes my tummy all rumbly. Among other things...

[@LoverOfBellies]

I found Let's Kill Hitler to be disappointing overall as the whole evil River thing was undone so quickly, also I don't get why the Master/Harold Saxon's wife would want to bring him back to life after he was defeated; she & the universe were free of him, maybe I'll have to watch it again

[@GabePuratekuta]

I remember her resisting right before the Master was revived, though.

[@ImpossibleGirI]

His “wife” never wanted him back. She warned people that he’s not who he seems in the end of time part 1.

[@antney7745]

She didn't. He had a cult of followers that wanted to bring him back, but she knew about the plan and worked to disrupt it, but she wasn't able to do so completely.

@@antney7745 yeah; that's why he came back all distorted - it's been a while since I've seen it & thought she was instrumental in the process of bringing him back, could have just destroyed the ring or entrusted it to the Doctor though lol; still a really great two parter though & send off for Tenant, that bit where the Master was everyone blew my mind

On the demons run episode when the Doctor talked to the newborn Melody Pond Amy was referred to as a source of milk.
