[@dh9892x]

When asked about the 60th Catherine said Donna’s ending felt right to her, she’d also said tho she never wants anyone else to play Donna so people assumed she’d die in this but the fact 10/14 gets to live a happy life on earth with his best friend, she was right, this is the correct and most BEAUTIFUL ending to The Doctor/Donna

[@failwhale34]

They deserve it innit

[@WR288]

I think the regeneration was a time loop. At some point, 14 properly regenerates into 15 and is sent back across his own timestream to help his younger self beat the Toymaker.

[@GlacierGolf]

on disney plus, in the subtitles, the 14th doctor (david tennant) is renamed the 10th doctor, so i think he might have his own new cycle of regeneration

[@AdventuringwithTrevor]

@@GlacierGolfthats a good way to easily bring back david tennant, matt smith, and peter capaldi eventually if they wanna go with the same order of doctors for this new one

[@orangut4ng]

​@@AdventuringwithTrevorcapaldi and Smith return would be a god tier episode

[@thegentleassassin]

you guys have got the complete wrong idea about this. An erroneous Disney Plus subtitle isn’t opening the door for Smith and Capaldi to return, and this Tennant Doctor didn’t magically become the 10th again after the bigeneration. He’s the 14th, and one day (likely offscreen) he’ll turn into the 15th. it really is that simple

[@davack62]

​@@orangut4ngsadly capaldi has been very vocal about not wanting to come back to the show he says his time is done and he's happy with it

RTD wrote this whole episode that said "i know how the internet is gonna be and I'm gonna do what I want anyway👍" good for him 🤣

[@Jack-Peters99]

Not exactly a flex, that's been happening with Star Wars for years and it's shit now. I enjoyed the episode but disagree with the bi-generation (I shall continue to watch) doesn't mean I agree with every choice. I would have preferred to let David go and focus on Nchuti but it is what it is.

[@user-ie9cp5qp7f]

Bigeneration was genuinely an amazing idea cuz on a meta level it means that all the stuff from the past is with 14, which he’s working through with Donna and fam, and now Ncuti’s doctor gets to have adventures unburdened by the past

[@bentertainmentproductions8451]

That explains the reset of the series. Ncuti’s run begins the Whoniverse era with a “Season 1”

[@amzstocks1]

it was such a clever way to reset the series, plus david tennent loves the franchise, this gives him a way to come back someday,

[@qs4177]

Doesn’t reset anything, a Ncuti is the original doctor the older doctor and 14th is the younger something that came out of the 15th. So nothing has been reset. The 15th still has all that baggage.

[@amzstocks1]

@@qs4177 thats the best bit, its been reset for a new era, but of course we still have all of the past we can explore with ncuti, he is still the same doctor, but it feels like the old doctor we grew up watching has retired and his son has taken over the family business, drawing a line between old dr who and new dr who, i know that can be said for all regenerations, but i think RTD did it this particular way deliberately to reset dr who

This episode was honestly crazy. We've got the return of the Toymaker & the bi-regenartion. Wow. David Tennant, Neil Patrick Harris & Ncuti Gatwa were great in this scene. 🙌 The table scene with the 14th, Donna & the family made me tear up a little. They are finally happy. 🥹

[@ChrisC11291980]

I love Gatwa already but based on what they set up here it looks like he’s gonna have quite a rogues gallery to face.

[@PandezPanda]

Ncuti got the tie and undies so David is going commando! :D

[@dh9892x]

Obviously Russell T Davies confirmed that the Toymaker was not the Boss the meep was referring to and the fact the meep mentioned how rare a creature with two hearts is - my belief and other whovians believe that the person who picked up the ring, the BIG Boss is The Rani (if u haven’t seen classic who she’s a renegade time lord) and since her casting announcement everyone is convinced that Jinkx Monsoon is playing her!

[@karlitatv]

I think this is one of the few episodes of Doctor Who that has left me speechless, the bi-regeneration thing was totally a massive surprise and i have no words for it. Weird but good episode.

[@andycofin6983]

You must be an editing whiz kid to get this episode out so fast! I loved how 15 treated 10/14. Self love, respect, genuine concern. No barrier, no sarcasm, no tension; just two people being good to each other. I’m interested to see where the season goes. These 3 episodes had some stumbles, but the relationship between the Doctor and Donna was a joy to see. And I’m glad to see that the Doctor finally got his reward.

[@failwhale34]

Interesting choice with 15/14 but makes sense given his story and the doctor in general. And ty! Tried my best to get a good edit and as quick as possible :)

I was absolute blown away by the conclusion of the 60th anniversary. I was screaming and crying through the whole duration. I love the idea of the Bi-generation adds a layer of mystery and complexity to the show. I love the relationship between 14 and 15, such an awesome bromance, the way 15 comforted 14 and assured him it's ok to rest was heartbreaking ...💔 9.5-10 Amazing conclusion to 60 years of WHO R.T.D YOU ARE THE M.V.P 🔥

on disney plus, in the subtitles, the 14th doctor (david tennant) is renamed the 10th doctor, so i think he might have his own new cycle of regeneration

[@chrispalmer7893]

I had the same reaction - as last week's episode ended it suddenly struck me that we were going to lose David again and I was reminded of how sorry I was to see him go last time. No disrespect to Matt Smith - I was totally sold on him well before the end of his first episode, but I thought it was going to hurt to see the regeneration. RTD gives us a happy ending, a tantalising thread to play with in the future, and nice clean start for the new Doctor (there'll be no need to keep referencing the traumas of his previous lives).

[@jamieharman4886]

[@mattjcole908]

I love this. Its took a little while after the episode for me to get it but the doctor we've been watching for 60 years finally gets to take a break with his new family. The 15th doctor gets to carry on with the adventures in time and space. Also it gives us an excuse to have a Doctor and Donna spin off lol.

[@gestaltdude]

People are going to complain about the bi-generation, but if they take a moment it makes sense. The whole planet has become a realm of the Toymaker, in which it is stated that all normal rules are suspended. By default, this has to apply to the Doctor as well, meaning that one of the least understood events in the universe, a Time Lord regeneration, would be allowed to go totally bonkers. Of course, the only question left is whether Tennant will be included in any of the spin offs Davies has planned, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

[@failwhale34]

Good point!

[@Wrangler-fp4ei]

Wow, that something I hadn't considered. If the rules Toymaker had established was in effect when the regeneration happened. He didn't even know what was going on when Doctor had to split.

[@nicktroisi6347]

The Toymaker was such a fantastic returning villain and absolutely terrifying and ruthless. Neil absolutely stole the show and he should do more villain roles. Also when David didn’t fully regenerate and copied the next Doctor I was like “WHAT! WTF!” I already love Ncuti as The Doctor, he’s gonna be fantastic. This was absolutely the best special and actually felt like a Doctor Who episode, the set up was perfect, the villain was perfect and the ending perfect. Also The Master is loose so that’s gonna be interesting to see how he fully comes back

[@mpg272727]

This episode really spiced up my life

[@ThePonderer]

RTD gets mad respect for even *attempting* to put a satisfying, happy bow on 60 years of stories AND letting the adventure continue. Honestly my biggest issue with this episode is I didn’t find the Toymaker stuff all that engaging. Filtering the entirety of human interaction through games is a cool idea, thematically, but the whole plot just didn’t hold my attention.

[@Koraki0000]

I felt like it wasn't very well patched. The Toymaker was a very posing threat, but he didn't feel that way while playing against the Doctors, I felt like he lacked the engagement in the game, and the commitment to not lose. Sure, he would never break the rules, but I honestly didn't expect him to just give up after seeing the ball fall off the building, at least have him jump off the building to catch the ball, 'cause if he did, in theory he would win since it never bounced on the ground, then have the Doctors try to figure a way out to catch it in time. That would make the last game more climatic, 'cause the way they just threw a bunch of cuts of them throwing the ball around until the Toymaker let it slip felt VERY anticlimatic and honestly... not worthy of the character at all

[@ltreanor99]

​@@Koraki0000 So true but that the joys of only making 3 episode's definitely needed more episodes to make the toy maker part more worthy.

[@leonais1]

This Toymaker character was a mess. Was the Toymaker a showman, a puppetmaster behind the scenes, or a participant in games? Those don't really fit together. Why does a compulsive game player set a trap for a peerless rival just to play the most trivial games possible? There might be reasons for the Doctor to pick the most trivial games but they were not explained either.

[@mikestopnotchcursedvideos3397]

From my understanding 14 will have his therapy and go on to be 15 so they eventually become one again. The toymaker was an amazing choice instead of the usual Master finale and I hope we get more classic villians making their long deserved return. I feel like bi regeneration is a concept that could have been done so badly like the timless child but RTD still pulled through in the end.

[@willw6504]

The Doctor lied - bi-regeneration has happened before, and to the Doctor no less. See classic Who episode "Logopolis" (although we see the other end, the two returning to one, in that episode).

[@owenbutters9610]

[@MrTambourineMan.]

This was an amazing episode. One of my favorites ever. The Celestial Toymaker was a top tier villain. NPH did outstanding. The funhouse was proper creepy. The play with the puppets he put on to catch Donna up on what’s happened with The Doctor since he left her was 👌. Digs deep into his tortured psyche and how he copes with leading them to death. Oh, well that’s alright! I know it’s gonna be contreversal but the bi-reneregation is such a fun direction for the franchise. I was so happy to see this face get to be part of Donna’s family and be totally content at the end. David Tennant’s Doctor was the most “human” of all The Doctors after all. We paid off that line he gave Rose ages ago about her getting to live the one adventure he never can. Just living normal life day-after-day. But he has a Tardis of his own, so he could merge back with Ncuti’s Doctor in the future. We could see a spin off. This is WILD!

I remember finding your reactions to Who a while back, it's been quite the journey. Almost feels just as unreal to still be here with your reactions after all this time as it does with the show! Surprisingly really loved this episode. Ncuti won my heart almost instantly. I'm interested to see what they do with the changes. Idk if it'll end up amazing, but I hope it does. It's pretty easy for this type of move to fall flat. It's ludicrous, joyous, a happy ending of miracles and then some... but I think they managed to pull it off. Who has always been just a goofy and miraculous as it can be heavy and tragic. Love your reactions, this journey has been fantastic, and here's to looking forward to the show's future! Good luck Ncuti!

Since they separated, Doctor 14 taking a rest to recoup will have no affect on Doctor 15. They are now in parallel regenerations. It would have worked better if the 14th Doctor HADEN’T regenerated, but the 15th Doctor TARDISes in from the future, gives the same speech about rest, then we follow him off into the universe. That way, there’s no parallel regenerations, only an unseen 14/15 regeneration somewhere in the future that we may, or may not, see.

I think if we see tennant again hes going to have become the Valeyard. To quote capaldi "every story ever told ends in death if you tell it long enough." If he sticks around hes going to see wilf, sylvia, shaun, donna and rose all die one by one from old age or bad luck and theres nothing he can do about it, and as a trans woman i can confirm rose isnt having kids any time soon. Doctor Noble is going to see his entire family die and it is going to break him. Maybe he cant regenerate, maybe Ncuti took that with him. The Valeyard did always want to steal the Doctors regenerations back in the day. I really hope im right because seeing an embittered tennant become Ncutis endgame boss would be sick and poetic given how he was born.

For those of you who are a bit uncomfy with the bigeneration, and this being the first, Canon now is The Doctor isn’t a Time Lord; he’s a unique entity in the universe.

[@willw6504]

The thing I found most interesting about bi-generation is that we have seen it happen before in Classic Who (meaning that the Doctor lied when he said it had never happened before), except we see it from the 'other end' when the two become one again. It occurs in the classic Who episode Logopolis. At the start of the episode, a mysterious faceless man in white begins helping out. Eventually the Doctor realizes that it is his next incarnation (although he tells no one). The man in while pilots the Tardis and takes other helpful actions, but remains mysterious and silent throughout, confusing the companions to no end. Then, at the Episode's conclusion, when the Doctor is dying, the man in White appears and the two merge, becoming one again - and the man in white's face is finally revealed as he at last fully becomes his new self. Edit: Oh, nearly forgot to mention. The man in White was Peter Davison, Tennant's father in law and the 5th Doctor. So bi-generation happened with 4th to 5th and 14th to 15th. Kinda poetic.

the messed up part about Kate telling Ruth that she has seen her walking, is that there are "fans" who were asking why they had her in a wheelchair in starbeast if they saw her move her legs. I'm sure that line was put in because they thought these "fans" would complain about it.

“Stooky Bill” was an actual thing. The very first television picture.
