Doctor Who 8x4 REACTION!! "Listen"

[@yojimbohawkins3165]

Peter Capaldi is himself a huge fan of Doctor Who and has been since he was a young boy. Being a fan himself, he understands how much we love the show. When he got the call to tell him he was the next Doctor, he was filming The Musketeers TV show. A young boy hired as an extra came up to him to tell him how much he loved him in the Pompeii episode during David Tennant's run. Capaldi asked the boy how much he liked Doctor Who and of course the boy was a huge fan of the show. As the BBC hadn't announced that he was taking over, he told the boy to get a camera. "You'll want a picture with me." What a gent. You can imagine that boy's face when he found out!

[@SeraphEChasted_3]

I wonder if he said "spoilers" to the kid he probably didn't but it would be very fun if he did

[@Chaz22]

That toy soldier doesn't have a gun. There was a saying in the time war. The first thing you notice about the Doctor of war is he is unarmed. For many its also the last.

[@Geznoo]

Unless you read the comics, than he has a huge ass gun.

[@Jim_The_Fish]

@@Geznoo Chase was referencing the episode Hell Bent. But even outside of the comics, there are several episode where the Doctor has a gun, including later on this very episode.

As this era moves forward, you will see the episodes are filled with amazing acting showcases by Capaldi. The best actor to ever pilot the TARDIS.

[@giglefreakz]

Capaldi is my personal favourite Doctor, I think he gave what is the ultimate best performance of the show in the best episode of the entire show; Heaven Sent. I cannot wait until we get there.

[@baptistepg8707]

I agree, Capaldi was my favorite Doctor. However, I enjoyed way more the style of story telling during Math Smith or even Tennant's era. Of course there are a few very good episodes during Capaldi's era, but rewatching the whole thing with Blind Wave, I surprised myself in remembering all or most of Smith's and Tennant's episode, and most of Capaldi's one seem new to me (like I almost watch them for the first time). Best Doctor, most forgettable seasons in my opinion.

[@SpectrumStorms]

Capaldi's my favorite modern doctor and third favorite overall. McCoy and C. Baker are 1st and 2nd, respectively.

[@Cardmaster99]

Mr BSERIES- You are deluded if you think any of those actors even come close to the performance Peter gives in his tenure. Dont get me wrong I love all the doctors to come before him but he takes it to the next level. He was the first well-recgonized actor to enter the Tardis as the doctor. And "old boy" is one of the reasons why he is masterful and perfect for the role.

[@kdmedia1534]

Mr BSERIES At least know how to spell Ecclestone, and this ‘old boy’ is probably the best actor to play the doctor.

[@DaveF.]

Yup - love the way Calapdi is completely oblivious to Clara's looks - takes me right back to the fourth Doctor's line to the Countess Scarlioni: "Ah, well. You're a beautiful woman probably.."

[@caitlinb35]

@@MrHamsterpower To be honest, their relationship is kind of romantic, and Twelve and Clara do kind of flirt, but I agree they definitely didn't want to make him look creepy or anything because of the age difference so it's a lot more subtle

[@tortoiseoflegends4466]

@@MrHamsterpower If i recall correctly they were going to push for a more romantic angle but Capaldi talked them out of it, saying he found it a bit creepy.

[@jessetorres8738]

I loved how much Capaldi's Doctor developed (at least compared to some of the other Doctors) sometimes in noticeably drastic ways and sometimes in very subtle ways. My personal favorite development he had was his views on hugs. When he 1st starts out he says he's not a hugger to Clara and we see that again in this episode, but by the end of his Era he was definitely a hugger and valued being close to his Companions.

[@taimurmuggo1634]

Jesse Torres I feel he changes the most out of the Modern Doctors . The Doctor is a fairly static character but there was a dynamism that Capaldi and Moffat brought to Twelve

[@eclaire_x88x]

Yes he did greatest character development of all of them

[@ArlanKels]

This episode does a good job of showing how the Doctor orders his companions, because they are his soldiers. While he is their friend he is also their trainer, he's turning them into a weapon.

[@OceanStorm12]

This episode made me fully on-board with Peter Capaldi as the Doctor when it aired. Rewatching it, reminds me why he is my favorite Doctor.

[@chriszone50]

Some people trash Peter Capaldi because his average era wasn't consistent, but they forget, his peak era(top 5 episode average) is one of the highest in doctor who and Peter Capaldi is usually ranked in the top 3 doctors with David Tennant and Tom Baker. This just goes to show it's not the whole era on average that matters but their peak performance which correlates to doctor ranks.

[@Jim_The_Fish]

@@chriszone50 He became my Doctor during Series 9, but whenever I rewatch Series 8 I always wonder how he wasn’t my Doctor from his first minute of screen-time. Peter is a genius and was literally born to play the Doctor.

[@dylanburton4955]

@@Jim_The_Fish I love his character journey. Series 8 he’s very insecure about who he is and very grumpy and blunt but you see he still has his compassion Then series 9/10 you see him soften up a lot more while remaining grumpy and still insulting people but it’s so much fun and his doctor speech’s are so good too

When they're talking and they miss something important: *LISTEN*

[@serenity4eva89]

'Listen' is hands down my absolute favourite episode of NuWho. It hasn't lost any of it's power since it originally aired, and I've rewatched it at least a hundred times... maybe more. It's perfection! I wouldn't even know where to start with everything I love about it. The concept of a silent companion, the connection with the War Doctor in 'Day Of The Doctor', all the little cracks the Doctor makes about Clara's looks, the awkward AF date that Danny Pink and Clara go on, the fact that the Doctor and Clara are somewhat responsible for who Danny becomes, Orson Pink in the future and that Clara is the reason for the Doctor's fear and his lack of weapons (namely, his hatred of guns) and just the visuals, which are all stunning. I fucking adore this episode and always will. "Fear makes companions of us all" - Clara Oswald

I love this episode so much! I like the theory that there's nothing, but the Doctor's mind is trying to remember the Silence. They're kind of perfect hiding, the Doctor can't really remember them without seeing them or the eyepatch, so he knows there's something but can't figure out what it is.

One of my favorite episodes. I remember a reviewer describe this as an episode where Moffat weaponized your expectations of what happens in his episodes. My personal theory is that the reason the young Doctor was crying was because he had just been taken to see the Untempered Schism.

Listen

[@umarsaddique710]

This is just a dream, but very clever people can hear dreams. So please, just listen. I know you're afraid, but being afraid is all right, because didn't anybody ever tell you fear is a superpower? Fear can make you faster and cleverer and stronger. And one day, you'll come back to this barn and on that day you're going to be very afraid indeed. But that's ok because if you're very wise and very strong, fear doesn't have to make you cruel or cowardly. Fear can make you kind. It doesn't matter if there's nothing under the bed or in the dark, so long as you know it's ok to be afraid of it. You're always going to be afraid, even if you learn to hide it. Fear is like a companion, a constant companion, always there. But that's ok, because fear can bring us together. Fear can bring you home. I'm going to leave you with something just so you always remember: Fear makes companions of us all.

A tremendous episode. Capaldi and Coleman are great. Brilliant reaction. 😊👏

[@CaesiusX]

In classic _Doctor Who,_ romantic involvement with the companions was a complete non-issue. It wasn't ever brought up. It was a part of the update that some fans didn't really like. As someone who grew up with classic _Who,_ I saw it as a refreshing change at first, but which got a bit out of hand IMO. I missed the Doctor being _so alien_ that such a thing wasn't a consideration. To be clear, in classic Who romance/attraction wasn't just one-sided. It wasn't only a complete non-issue from the Doctor's point of view ─ no one else was ever written with an interest in the Doctor either. I feel Capaldi's take on the Doctor is a wonderful blend of the modern and the classic. Did you guys know that he wrote a fan letter to _Doctor Who_ when he was little? I think it was shown on an episode of _The Graham Norton_ show.

[@dvader518]

But doesn’t the cabin being on Gallifrey not make any sense since in DotD there were clearly BLUE skies around it when Gallifrey has ORANGE skies and also why would the War Doctor take the Moment (which would destroy Gallifrey and the Daleks) TO A CABIN ON THE VERY PLANET HE INTENDED TO BLOW UP?

[@donaldwatson7698]

It's one of the wibbly wobbly things. If you think about it, 10 and 11 accompanied War Doctor into a Gallifreyan picture, apparently at the moment of its creation: a slice of time from the second city's destruction, an event they should be able to access for the same reasons. I guess, despite that it was a time war, Gallifrey can be accessed in the past, just not in the Doctor's present (which I've heard would be a consistent "present" for all Time Lords).

[@prof.evilpictures8696]

dvader518 the war Doctor had no intention of surviving. The Moment (bad wolf) kept him alive as a punishment. Also Gallifey’s sky changes colour.

Agreed, sometimes his cadence and intonation especially are pure 4th Doctor. 12 actually feels like a genuine mix of many previous incarnations though (later on he has a bit of 10's swashbuckling style for instance, he can be manipulative like 7, caustic like 6 and so on), Capaldi does a brilliant job of portraying a person who's been 12 previous people but is still a unique individual.

Don't forget to check deleted scene from this episode. In a matter of fact, didn't you thought about making reaction videos to deleted scenes and extras to the episodes on dvd? Maybe after the episode, maybe as a special after season finale

[@iwillcry]

One of my favourite episodes of the show damn

When Danny asked her how she knew his name was Rupert, she should have said the woman in the shop lmao

[@AMoniqueOcampo]

This episode is one if my favorites

[@npe9483]

I don't like season 8 very much, probably my least favourite Moffat-era season. But this episode is just a masterpiece. Every aspect of it is stunning from the performances, cinematography, editing, writing, themes, and ideas.

[@giglefreakz]

Season 8 has some pretty mediocre episodes, however overal I still think it's a lot better than Season 7 because it has a good finale and some amazing episodes like Listen, Mummy on the Orient Express and Flatline. I also like 12 and Clara a lot more than 11 and Clara.

[@npe9483]

@@giglefreakz I disagree respectfully, I think Time of the Doctor was stunning, and followed on two excellent episodes Day of the Doctor and Name of the Doctor. All those episodes are in my top 10 for the show. Whatever anyone says about S7, it ends brilliantly.

[@giglefreakz]

@@npe9483 Actually both The Day of the Doctor and Time of the Doctor aren't counted as Season 7, but as seperate Specials. It's the same with Tennant's Specials (Waters of Mars, The End of Time), they weren't part of Season 4, but seperate.

For me, Series 8 is the first good series since Series 4.

[@MrMCIJ123]

​@@SpectrumStorms yeah but I think that's just you not liking Matt Smith. Like you said in another comment 11 was a poor doctor to begin with. Funny how he's considered one of the most popular Doctor's to date if you think he's poor.

10:28 Clara is SO CUTE

[@jjc5871]

I’m not afraid of the dark. I love the dark actually. I’m just terrified of what may be in the dark.

And this was the episode some people didn't understand when it came out because they don't understand fear (they also didn't understand what Clara did). They expected material fear and what Moffat gave us was absolutely genius. He wanted to make a story with little help from special effects, just good old psychological writing. No cheap tricks, no monsters. Just fear around what we don't see. Like Stephen King once said: "Nightmares exist outside of logic, and there's little fun to be had in explanations. They're antithetical to the poetry of fear.” Doctor Who has deep implications on the nature of fear of the unknown and cosmic horror and we don't explore that all that much imo. But this was a breath of Lovecraftian fresh air. One of the best stories I've ever seen for sure. The nods to the 50th were brilliant as well.

Just so you know guys director Ridley Scott did a Robin Hood film with Russell Crowe which I think it was pretty amazing and don't quote me on this I think it won an Oscar as well. The girl that was captured at the beginning of the episode and was in prison with the doctor was Marion.
