Nardole was a bit like Donna. The first time I saw him, he was funny but also annoying. I was happy he was a one-off character. When it was announced he was returning for the second special, I was hesitant, but he really improved. He then turned out to be one of the surprising gems of Series 10. Donna was the same way. Funny but annoying in the Christmas special, but turned out to be the best companion of the Tennant years.

I just read Matt Lucas' autobiography and he talks with some affection of his time with Doctor Who. Nardole was originally written as a one-off character and mainly as comic relief since Christmas specials were always a little more light hearted than the rest of the series, but when he came back as a recurring character it was never intended that he be played just for laughs. It was also really moving -- Lucas had recently lost his partner to suicide, and that partner was a massive Doctor Who fan (Lucas had even bought them Tennant's Tardis when the BBC auctioned it off) and the original read-through almost broke him.

@TheCrippledEgg6 жыл бұрын
When you compare Nardole from The Husbands of River Song to how he is in series 10 there's quite a difference. He goes from this squealing, cowardly, bubbling oaf (you've seen Lucas play this type of character before) to a witty, intelligent, bossy, former conman. If the latter was the Nardole we were introduced to, the negative reaction to him being a companion would have been considerably smaller.
@LoriCiani6 жыл бұрын
Super Skully Ah, do you remember the negative reaction to the return of Donna Noble when fans remembered the Christmas special The Runaway Bride? After the first episode fans began to come round and in time she became a favourite. Do we fans always react badly to change, even when it's for the best? Are Capaldi's eyebrows bushy?
@TheCrippledEgg6 жыл бұрын
LoriCiani I didn't watch the show that far back but I did hear there were quite a few people unhappy with Donna being a full time companion, partially because they identified Catherine Tate with her comedy characters. There was a similar reaction towards Nardole and from what I've seen Bradley Walsh is getting some of that "why make him a companion of all people?". I hoping Bradley Walsh continues this trend by turning out to be a well-received and underestimated companion.

@@arturofernandez4058 Donna? Annoying to the end? Really? I didn't think so. But then again, my sons did say that she reminded them of me. Best temp in Chester.😆 From the shakey start in the Christmas special, she went on to be the Doctor's best friend, the Doctor/Donna. It's always good to see a character change and evolve through a season. It was one hell of a heartbreak for the Doctor when he lost Donna, just after having to leave Rose with the human Doctor. Yes, I do agree with you about Nardol. A witty foil for the Doctor, given River's permission to kick the Doctor's rear whenever he needed it. But then again, he also had a bit of a shakey start in the Christmas special, he then went on to become a fan favourite. All I was trying to say is that some fans are highly resistant to change.

We all knew that Missy wasn't going to last forever. The pity of it all is she really does have potential to do enormous good, but this might be the closest we get to her realizing it because at its core the character of the Master is much more important as a villain than as a co-hero. I would absolutely L-O-V-E a new iteration of Missy/Master to emerge that takes on more of an antihero role and the doctor has to spend a season alternately stopping the Master and being forced to work with the Master to stop something worse. Make it a little less obvious what the Master/Missy is in the plot to do, and maybe even set up some stories where the Master is the one who has to stop the Doctor.

The trio of 12, Bill, and Nardole is amazing. Each of them manages to be both comic relief and straightman to the other two whilst being both unique and consistant in characterization. Which is super impressive to me. It would be so easy for all three of them to just feel like The Doctor with the way they bounce between comedy and seriousness, but they don't because they are so well characterized. And it's even better for the short time Missy joins in... It's a pity it took till his last season for Moffat to figure out how to consistantly play to his strengths.

Yeah I think the show was much more rich than what it is now. Those characters were less stereotypical, they had more contrasted personnality. Sometimes they were more serious, sometimes more into comedy, sometimes they were sad or even dramatic. I also think that the chemistry was working very well between the comedians.
