Christopher Eccelstone was pretty underrated. He brought a whiff of originality

[@spensermehew2053]

The Day of the Doctor proved one thing... And that's that the Doctor can re-use certain faces. If any of the Doctors were to come back on the show, David Tennant's the one I think should. The 10th Doctor was one of my childhood heroes, and his regeneration scene still breaks my heart.

its been 4 years, get over it.

[@emptyvoices31]

I actually on started watching the show during December of last year so for me and started in 2005 so it wasn't really that long, and writing wise, seasons 5&6 were a bit...lopsided.

me neither, he's the best :c

[@emptyvoices31]

I'm sorry. I don't have those available...I did go back and research them and bought a guide book. I'm sure that's not the same. But I basically have the DVD's. Most fans these days rather right or wrong will start with the reboot at 2005. I did read that the 6th Doctor was pretty dark much like the 10th. I have been doing reading as I said. So I do have respect for the last 50 years.

[@theultimateomelette]

emptyvoices31 Here is a random recommendation, go on Dailymotion, they have every classic series Doctor Who episode.

[@kimseehorn]

I could listen to David talking about Doctor Who forever ..

[@TwilightCullens1991]

I mean each actor brings a new element to the doctor but i have to say David really brought the series back to life for new generation especially i believe if he could he would play the doctor till his in wheelchair. I really didnt want him to go but i have such a respect for him that though i was sadden by his exit in a way i think it really moved so many people towards adoreing doctor who.

I wish he spoke Scottish on the show i love his accent

[@christofferoff]

The problem was that Russel T Davis wanted some differentiation between Ecclestone's doctor's accent. Otherwise, Chris would be Scottish, David would be Scottish, Matt wouldn't (though Amy was) Capaldi is Scottish... you can get too much of the accent.

[@2000benedikt]

SikkoSevenGaming Eccleston wasn't Scottish, he was Northern English.

[@christofferoff]

Yeah, I guess he was. Still, the accents in the north of the UK are generally similar... Can I even say that without being insulting?

[@none4530]

+SikkoSevenGaming I disagree completely, the Northern accents of England (or at least Eccleston's) sounds very different from Tennant's. And this is coming from an Englishman.

[@christofferoff]

If I confused you, I'm sorry, but I in fact am also English. And yes, at closer evaluation, I agree that their accents do sound rather different, but I'm struggling to come up with any other reason for it than that.

Tennant and Capaldi are both fans of the show and they sounded similar when asked about leaving the show, leaving when it was still fun.

[@beetlejuiceblues12]

I kinda like the whole regeneration thing, but it is sad to say goodbye to all those brilliant actors. I watched this after the end of time, and almost bawled when the other guy asked if David knew any of his last lines. Bravo David Tennant, hope they'll bring him back.

[@digitalparadisestudios7741]

This interview was not filmed at the same time. You can tell by the way the interviewer asks the questions. He's looking at some X on the wall in front of him that's supposed to be David. He's so stoic and blank like he's talking to no one. Which he is.

[@wilfrede8315]

Yes it’s most obvious at 8:40 where the interviewer gives no reaction to the joke

[@heavyarms01h]

David said that he loved how the Doctor got to show an entire range of character traits that he got to play. It's so true and David did such an incredible job of it. He could be extremely funny, almost even childlike and full of wonder - but he could also be extremely driven, energetic and dramatic, like an avenging angel. In particular, I thought seeing his despair & frustration when the Master chose to let himself die, as well as 10's reluctance to regenerate himself, was very touching.

[@shawnwells9206]

Wish he stayed

[@333puggles333]

So does he. He didn't want to go :3

[@turtlebirdrox]

I've been watching Dr. Who since Christopher Eccleston (2005) so I've loved watching David Tennant as well. I do miss him sometimes playing the Doctor but I think Matt does an amazing job too. Mind you I would love to see David again in an episode with Matt. I think that would be awsome!

[@noraauwigotner763]

Don`t remind me of is final line, it was just the emotional overkill. Everybody knew that he was going to regenerate but that`s the course of his life and it was going to be ok, and then: "I don`t want to go". The fact that the Doctor was taking the regeneration just as bad as we did was soooo saaaaad...

[@AngusJones]

This interview guy is so formal, automated, robotic and slightly blunt with the way he delivers his questions lmao.

[@lordevyl8317]

I don't know about David, but I'd love to see Jack Harkness back. It would be interesting seeing him try to hit on Capaldi, LOL

[@robinb7387]

10 years on and I still miss him

[@TheKangLock]

I don't mind that David left, since you have to move on in this show. I mean, in that respect it's one of the hardest shows for fans because you can never get too attached to main. You know they're gonna go at some point you just don't know when. We had to move on from the 10th Doctor, and while I DO miss David's Doctor, I did try my best to move on from him and onto Matt Smith... I TRIED anyway. But I couldn't. Not because it wasn't David, and not because I don't like Matt, I think Matt's actually rather good. But because of Moffat. Moffat ruined the show.

They gave David something special, something that as this era, this time's Doctor, earned and deserved. Other doctors simply went away, or were convenient but David brought in this new vivid colorfulness, playfulness not seen in previous doctors. Even Ecc was darker than David, though both did wonders for the character. But who else as the Doctor gave tribute to *his* Doctor, and earned an extra year or two, with a voice matching fans, "I don't want to go." (cont)

i agree about the regenerations but David was the best Doctor sense Tom Baker it would have been great but the follow up Doctor wasn't as good as him i will really miss him he made me love the doctor i will always love him as the doctor and he played him the best no one could have played him as good and they were so alike. I hope you will one day make a reappearance but until then thank you for being the doctor you have made me love him

[@candelalujanmoyano1535]

You know I admire David Tennant for stepping down. He knows "you either die the hero or live long enough to be the villain" He has my respect

[@Tubeman244]

Tom Baker & David Tennant seem to be tied as people's favorite versions. I like Ten the most currently because of how Tennant plays the character (lol I'm new to the fandom, I'm only on ep 8 of season 3). The emotion and skill he puts into playing Ten is just amazingly breathless to watch. As for Baker, I've only seen one of his episodes so I can't judge quite yet :) But my Dad and I are going to watch the whole series, Classic era to Modern era starting next weekend.

*continued* While a whimper to the great energy and saga of David's Doctor, X, From the infectious Rose onto the hilarious Donna and all the ventures inbetween, to the many, many spin-offs and other careers and characters, David's doctor deserved more as the fans wished for more - yet while his line was pained, his final moment matched his explosive, joyful character, a firefall of matching wonderful shade, a color and farewell fitting the torch to forge the next. Adieu, Allons-y

I'm only halfway through the 4th season, so 10 is still my Doctor, and I'm afraid he'll ALWAYS be my Doctor! He's just so perfect as the Doctor! He makes me laugh (all the time), and he makes me cry harder than i've ever cried watching a television show. I'll miss him dearly. I dread the end of this season, I know i'll just cry buckets!! (I'm so happy I started watching Doctor Who, it's a rare treasure of television! I'm only sad I didn't start watching sooner.)

David Tennat was the best doctor EVER! When somone says Doctor Who I will always think David. He matched the character so well and made it all feel real! I cried so much when he left Rose on Bad Wolf Bay and when he left. His words "I don't want to go", will saty with all Doctor Who fans for ever as they show what emotion he could make us feel, it was lik ewe were there with him! I will miss him for ever! x

[@stormyascent6982]

When I was a "ked"

[@TreyTheeWhovian]

David T will always be my favorite Doctor ❤️😢

[@TheMeRkxTrIksTeRCrib]

Almost 14 years on since David first began as The Doctor and I still feel so captivated by his performance as The Doctor. I grew up watching him and have so many fond memories from it. I decided to revisit the beginning of Modern Who for both nostalgia and simply because I wanted to compare how poor the writing has got when watching todays Doctor Who. I don't mind Jodie as an actor but I just can't see her as The Doctor, the lack of effort she seems to put into the role shows on screen and she seems bored with it honestly and the writing just makes everything ten times worse because it's too political. So, to cleanse myself of that series and incarnation of The Doctor, as I said I went back and I've been watching every single episode of Modern Doctor Who and I decided to do it in Chronological Order, including SJA and Torchwood and any mini episodes, animated films etc so it all linked up. Which is something I never truly experienced when I was younger so I actually managed to see and understand references, innuendos and other certain things that were completely new to me. Alongside other media forms that David had played The Doctor in and it was refreshingly good, all the animated films and mini episodes that I never knew existed. I highly recommend anyone who loves Doctor Who to do the same, simply Google Doctor Who Chronological Order and look for the DigitalSpy article. But linking back to just how captivating his performance as The Doctor was I'll provide an example and a new found love for the episode known as Midnight in series 4, I never understood what happened in it when I was younger, but re-watching it now truly showed me just how amazing David was at being The Doctor. The writing in the episode was incredible too because of the fact that the villain in this episode left him powerless and humanity went against him, the people whom he always tries to protect showed their darkest sides and were willing to betray him without thinking straight due to fear. Usually always The Doctor will have some kind of plan but in this episode this creature was new, it was invisible and undetectable and frankly frightening, it wasn't my favourite episode but David's performance in it blew me away because it brought raw emotion and depth to The Doctor and I think he portrayed that excellently, and I'm glad they've never brought that villain back because it just adds even more depth to how daunting it was, leaving it to our imagination because it's still completely unknown, and maybe there's a reason The Doctor never bothered to try find out what it is and that's a scary thought. I just thought I'd share my love for David Tennant and his incredible acting skill and how incredible the humble beginnings of Modern Doctor Who were.

[@TheLadyIgrain]

I loved this video. Listening to him speak and watching him, it's so easy to love this man. I will be watching for more of his work in the future.
