Death Is The Only Answer Doctor Who Mini Episode

doctorwhotv.co.uk

[@TapTapTech]

I did like the line "I'll have you know this old trash will be around till the end of time. In fact it was" I love continuity quotes.Makes it really feel like this is the same show as the one with Tennant in it.

[@judgehangman]

"The Daleks kind of exterminated it last week... or was it last century?" just loved that

[@Twazzack]

Just to clear a lot of the questions up, at the beginning it says "Written by the children of Oakley Junior School", I love it how the crew of Doctor Who take time to interact with their fans so much!

[@imogenna_]

I found this pretty groovy, seeing as it was written my students. I know I couldn't write a better script, so well done! It's so cool they actually made it! Aghh awesomeness

[@MindOfSummer1993]

It was written by CHILDREN and they still did a better job than some adults do with script writing. It's not on par with Davies or Moffat, but it was marvelous in its own right. :3

[@quentinlemaitre2998]

It was written by children and they still did a better job than whatever RTD2 wrote as of now, crazy

[@jijigagikijiwizgkzz]

I had no idea this existed until five minutes ago. I think this is one of my favourite minisodes. Space/Time is still the best.

[@AngryJawa1213]

Albert: "You said you were going to give my toothbrush back!" Doctor: "uh, about that, the Daleks kinda exterminated it last week" lol.

[@Raiderhater1013]

I so love these little eps that kids come up with. Pure genius!

[@Mariomixer]

Way back when in one of Tennant's episodes, an Ood gradually turned his master into an Ood by adding a chemical to his drinks. It's a safe bet that what Einstein had was just a super concentrated form of that. Or, much simpler, kids wrote it.

[@TheZacula]

'What just happened?" "Long story, you went a bit Ood." Good mini-sode. :)

[@myturningtables]

Its quite good written even from young school children, it was completely crazy and had a twist but that's exactly what doctor who is about. :]

[@JJohnston4Life]

This scene is literally better than all of the new DW

[@thepopeisnotawarcriminal]

Flux was alright, and specials 2, 3 and 4 were good, but I get what you’re saying

[@hugginsman76]

the only thing I'm curious about is why Albert Einstein sounds italian

[@CorellianSmuggler]

German :)

[@hugginsman76]

I know he's german, but he sounds Italian

[@eleonorer.6503]

TheBlueJacket agree

[@JJohnston4Life]

Tardis translation matrix malfunction

[@wfk200]

The way Einstein left in a hurry made me think he stole something lol

[@thedaemonicblackcat]

Why is it that the Ood always bear the ominous messages?

[@agentEE7]

I love how this was written by school students! Awesome!

[@rainestar82]

1:44 the hair flip after he takes the glasses off =

[@shaneferguson5931]

When he first came through, I thought it was Doc from Back to the Future. XD

[@R3TURNZ3R0]

FANTASTIC

[@Deserts0ng13]

This made my day :D

[@LeonardMeltsner]

Touché.

[@ihugbigdirtybears]

WHOA MAN. That was a good episode!

[@AdurnaRisa]

This was rather good... I applaud you Oakley Junior School!

[@HippyAngel001]

LOVE THIS EP! =D

[@Qw3rtykid3]

That was one of my favourite episodes...

[@TheBillyIdolVampire]

a completly normal afternoon for the doctor.

[@nadhiahodges]

Amazing!!

[@RachaelHowie96]

"You went a bit ood... ehh a bit odd"

[@TonyFizzle]

WOW THAT WAS GREAT WRITING! and it even came from a jr high! :D good job! I was entertained!

[@orbital151]

Loving it!

[@StijnHommes]

Last time I heard him say anything, he said he wasn't planning on stopping anytime soon...

[@hammondesque]

Aww, I love the Ood they're my favourite! Good job kids from Oakley School :D

[@Gubbywubby]

"Sorry, you went a bit Ood..." I'm going to have to use that! Brilliant line.

[@LondonCelt]

haha brilliant! The kids even left us on a cliffhanger haha! "You went a bit ood, ah odd." LMAO!!!

[@reubenleal7098]

Better than "good as gold" which was written by kids awell.

[@mysterynerd213]

i remember that matt made a fan fic about the doctor and albert traveling trough space and time

[@freddiefan93]

This was pretty awesome! So that's how Einstein got the mad prof hair xD

[@02Nolife]

"the dalek exterminate it last week ....or was it last century " best part !!

[@Centuries_of_Nope]

"So doctor, what did you do today?" "Aw just met Albert Einstein again. Nothing really out of the ordinary."

[@OINMAS]

This is brilliant! Next time, they should let kids write a full 45 min episode! I could totally imagine this being canonical. I consider The infinate Quest and Dreamland to be Canonical. Something like this also shows what little kids like in the show. It's perfect for future eps. Moffat, Listen to these kids!

[@ChaoticNeutralMatt]

Same thoughts exactly.

[@chipiecqt]

"You went a bit ood... I mean odd" Best line in the episode :P

[@rezkat03]

Matt looks and sounds so young and it has only been two years!

[@ElvenRaptor]

I concur. I think the kid has a future in writing.

[@badhead]

this is better written than some of the episodes

[@RamdomlyAwesome]

Brilliant

[@NightspiritHacker]

@scrubanizer 42 is a reference to the works of Douglas Adams (who coincidentally wrote a couple episodes of the 4th doctor). When asked, what was the answer to "Life, the Universe, and Everything", Deep Thought responded 42. True story.

[@seansora]

The wiggly bits and everything!

[@PaperbackWizard]

"You went a bit Ood--uh, a bit odd."

[@swordseye2]

Yeah I bet he loved acting this!

[@TheSandy1078]

i love it its cool he just wriggles like a worm when it touches him

[@veggiet2009]

"Don't get any ideas about stealing it... again"

[@Noivian]

Awwww... So CUTE! It's nice that BBC is using middle schooler's ideas as mini-epicsodes. Shows they're really listening. :)

[@jmtrzinski]

lol this is awesome!!!!

[@willowrhayne]

That is cool that they would let kids write a minisode and then actually film it!

[@mowingthebacklawn]

@SSj4Monster It's stand-alone enough that it could take place between "The God Complex" and "Closing Time," but I think it's intended to go after "The Wedding of River Song," since it aired right afterwards.

[@AspectOfTheStorm]

@cwooddirector They'll explain in in the new season. They always love doing stuff like that. All the episodes are connected in some way.

[@Vyselink]

For being written by kids, this was great lol. I loved it.

[@KingLofiOne]

This is a 3 minute mini-episode broadcast in the final episode of Doctor Who Confidential (When Time Froze), written by schoolchildren.

[@mowingthebacklawn]

@TapTapTech Einstein and the fez had a connection because Einstein was the original owner of the fez. When the Doctor hit the lever and when Einstein reached into his own time machine, the connection pulled Einstein into the Tardis. Einstein's concoction turned out to be a potion that turned him into an Ood. "Death is the only answer" and the magic beam that reversed the potion's effects went unexplained, though.

[@haydentube09]

This is so cool!

[@mowingthebacklawn]

@SuperMWake2 It could take place any time the Eleventh Doctor is alone in the Tardis, but I think it was meant to go after "The Wedding of River Song" since it aired right afterwards and he's wearing the same clothes he was at the end of the finale.

[@TARDIS59]

when he opens the light thing when he throws the yo-yo into they play the Ghostbusters proton pack start up XD

[@TheLaughingMan712]

This is Christmas. The Doctor vs Einstein

[@ctraver]

Note that Moffat wrote The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, where the nanogenes made their first confirmed appearance. Over 5 years prior to this mini episode. If Moffat did any checking for continuity before approving the final version of the script, well, he may well remember the nanogenes from his own story, and made whatever tweaks were needed to allow them as a possible interpretation.

[@NekoEcho13]

lol what. the daleks exterminating a toothbrush? thats hilarious! xD

[@omar3rd]

His sentence was going to be,"Don't drink that liquid, it may be of timey wimey origin!"

[@scifigeek5]

this was amazing, I've never seen these mini episodes before, where else can i find them?

[@AgentDudo]

I saw that last week. Or was it last month... Anway, I HAVE seen everything this ever expanding universe has to offer.

[@saphriaofhogwarts]

"Don't drink that liquid, it may..." Turn you into an Ood!!!! hahaha.... The Doctor, Einstein, a Fez and an Ood.... Wonderful combination!!! :D

[@power3videos]

I miss this kinda fun and screwing around stuff the doctor does

[@Starlight-Tale]

That actually makes a lot of sense.

[@TheDanni0608]

"I can't beleive River blew you up" Fez disapperates In other word's River gives revenge on the resurrecting fez without even being there..

[@YenKaizer]

Those kids are terrific writers! Me at the end: Oh no. It's the Master.

[@BuckyDK]

These minis have great plot material for the real series...

[@smoothcriminalalex]

He only thought that it was impossible to the past but acording to the general and special theory of relativity you can go to the future.

[@StDeath99]

Oh god, co me on! In the 5th season i almost crushed my mind thinking of what is the silence, and now this!

[@groovygower]

Plenty of people have spoken with accents in Dr Who. The 9th Dr himself had a Northern accent - I remember the one in Ancient Rome (or similar) where there was a fellow with a cockney accent.

[@Monkofmagnesia]

Written by eleven year old geniuses!!!! They have a future with the BBC.

[@FeatheredCrow]

"Doctor Who?" "Death is the ownly answer"

[@DiamondRoseGoddess]

wow these kids are insanely lucky

[@generalgrievous67]

The doctor meets again Einstein, from Time and the Rani.

[@opheliataylor2929]

It is not everyday you see Albert Einstein turned into an Ood inside a time machine,while wearing a fez...

[@sipodge]

I liked it up to the point when the Ood arrived...

[@sagichnicht9011]

to say it with the words of the tenth doctor WHAT WHAT whOAT? "Space" "Time" are the best mini episodes EVER

[@Mysterywriter221]

Please let this have been some of the Einstein and Eleven fanfiction Matt wrote.

[@Captainofbadasssquad]

I just saw Albert Einstein turn into an Ood, I have officially seen everything the ever expanding universe has to offer.

[@EmpressEmbeth]

Pretty sure it was a yoyo. Probably got it from the same place as the TARDIS self-destruct button from the Daleks in WWII episodes.

[@AliceVargas97]

the best line evah

[@BrandonMichael]

it was actually pretty good for some kids at a school

[@mowingthebacklawn]

@diamondjack75 After. It takes place right after "The Wedding of River Song."

[@LightFire53]

"But you said you were gonna give my toothbrush back." "About that, the daleks kinda exterminated it last week."

[@philco8869]

Classic proton pack sfx brill XD

[@happycowsmmmcheese87]

Exactly.

[@chipiecqt]

A weird and maybe dangerous portal is appearing, the TARDIS could explode or implode at any moment, an army of Dalek or Weeping Angels could come through the portal BUT "more important, where's my fez??"

[@HistoryAndCartoons]

So according to Einstein's timeline this episode takes place before Time and the Rani. Meaning he first met the 11th doctor and later on the 7th :0

[@AuroraNora3]

:o

[@Ravaloxianthunderbird]

The second time Einstein has appeared :D

[@TheCartoonLoon]

My problem with that though, is than most people will not of seen this episode, and the slime would just come out of no where to them, thats why I said it could be Cannon but just not important to see as in everything in it has no long lasting effects. However if they reintroduce the slime so you wouldn't have to watch this episode then it could work.

[@RadicalDreamerWD]

@TheEarthCreature True, very true. And that was nearly 30 years ago! Next to nothing that can't be done these days. It would probably be the most interesting pairing to see, since the 1st Doctor was such an abrasive, cross sort and the 11th is so eternally cheerful.

[@LuckyRoy2015]

i want mini episode about John Hurt Meeting 11th Doctor with 10th Doctor in the newest time machine .
