Capaldi's whole run is some of the series best moments. Will always love the Mad Scotsman.

[@motionadapt1589]

The bit where Clara gets of the phone with 11 and speaks to 12 that’s where I was sold on Peter and also the zagon speech is top tier

[@richardvinsen2385]

I’ve watched that scene countless times but it still makes me tear up a little bit every time. It really puts you into the head of the Doctor, you know what it’s like to have to deal with yet another regeneration.

[@ethanfrederiksen4327]

Very underrated series. I am so grateful we got to see Peter Capaldi's take on the Doctor. He was marvelous! He let the Doctor go in the end, but I'll never let him go. Cheers, Peter.

[@FirstNameLastName-gh9iw]

It’s such a show of skill that they filmed all of this so quickly, I mean you only have 2 days of sun shine to film a year in England

[@jeremy1860]

I will never be unappreciative of the fact that a "Robin Hood meets the Doctor" work of fiction actually exists 😊

[@motionadapt1589]

And also casually flips him off and proceeds to attack him with a spoon 🤣🤣

[@rjmcallister1888]

Peter and Jenna are still my favorite pairing. How she handled the change from Matt Smith to Peter, how she was the giddy schoolgirl with Robin Hood to serious as the temporary Doctor, Jenna's work here is just marvelous. This was supposed to be her last season, but while the Christmas special was being shot, she decided to come back for one more. Capaldi is a master actor; most grumpy Scotsmen are (I should know). Yes, he loves her, but not in the way you might think, and he will prove just how much in the season that follows.

[@merlyworm]

For me this is my second fav pair. My first will always be Tennant and Tate. 10 and Donna. (at least in revival doctor who). But a very close second. I disliked Jenna with 11. But with Capaldi, she worked so much better. Dont you miss a doctor that can carry a show even with meh scripts? heh.

[@boulevard14]

I don't think she changed her mind while the Christmas special was being shot, that doesn't leave a lot of time for Series 9 to be written. I think she changed her mind after the Christmas special was written, but before Series 8 began shooting.

[@NightmareproductionsOFFICIAL]

That scene where capaldi gives his scared speech to Rupert Pink in Listen is actually reassuring. Like it kinda feels scary to watch in the dark on your own so u feel as scared like the kid but get reassured by him your ok. Such an amazing doctor and director.

[@avcables_]

Series 8 is one of the best series of the show in its entire run!!! One of the best Doctors, the companion for better and the TARDIS interior was so cool!

[@danielwilliamson6180]

Peter Capaldi was brilliant as the Doctor. I really miss him in the role, another series with him, Bill and Nardole would have been great.

[@kraxosOBK]

Replace Bill Potts with literally any other companion and I'm down.

[@ArcyMeneses]

The back-to-back combo of Mummy on the Orient Express and Flatline is the best of the series.

[@willowpets]

Idk I think Silence in the Library + Midnight beats it out, although those two are awesome.

[@mtdl3x]

Series 8 is perfect in every moment, from "Shush!" to "What do you want for Christmas?"

[@darthmauIl]

Whenever I see Peter capaldi it’s like seeing the alone dark side of Matt Smith. And I think it makes doctor who amazing like that.

[@G.F.SF55]

I think that but also + goofiness

The Twelfth Doctor is the reason I am in medical Science university right now to become a Science Officer/medical technician. To quote him "I am The Doctor. I've live for 200 years and not all of them we're good. I've made mistakes and it's about time that I did something about that."

[@owlamancer]

I love that Capaldi's doctor knew that he phoned, because y'know.. he did.

[@RoundaboutASMR]

I had a hard time adjusting to capaldi, I was growing up, and it seemed like the show was going backwards with an older doctor. I stopped watching. But then I seen the clip with matt ringing Clara, and it did to me what it did for Clara, it allowed me to see the doctor.....and now capaldi is the bomb.

[@realstevewilson]

When I first learned Peter was taking over from Matt, I didn’t think I would like him as the Doctor at first. But after watching his first episode….and the rest of series 8, he grew on me. And he continued to do so throughout the rest of his tenure. I miss him as the Doctor. But he will always be the Doctor even if he’s no longer with the series.

[@misterwolf3817]

Series 8 itself is a great moment.

[@AlexanderWright1]

I love Clara's bow tie cardigan. Though to be fair, I love Clara and all her costumes.

[@movieswithshannon]

"Because I am the Dr, and this...is my SPOON!" is still my favorite line!

Some of the best of Dr Who - Please bring back the magic

[@kevinth66]

Matt Smith was my favourite of the new Who, so the change to Capaldi was drastic and I hated every minute of it. I absolutely loathed Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. I was wrong, oh so wrong, and only started to realize that late into Capaldi's run. He really was an excellent Doctor. So many great Who moments during his time.

[@kethf4301]

I always thought that the longer and wilder his hair got, the better his Doctor was. His start was a little awkward, as most new Doctor's usually are. By Twice Upon A Time, he absolutely mastered the role. From a fan who started with Tom Baker, PCap IS my Doctor.

[@jillboler4500]

Rusty vs daleks is the first dalek fight since classic series and that makes it my best moment of series 8.

[@chrise.6667]

The relationship that Clara and the 12 is one that is so special and so deep. I hear in another video that somebody comparing their relationahip as platonic soul mates and I agree. I watched Clara and the Doctor's best moments yesterday and I just cried at their beautiful relationship. I also agree theta the 12 performance is so deep and and so layered We get to see a deeper side of the Doctor's inner world even more clearer. I love their go and I love their goodbye. ❤

[@Kitsonator1]

[@NightmareproductionsOFFICIAL]

Didn’t rlly how awesome that Rusty action sequence was. He’s such a beast of a Dalek rlly hood we see him again. I love the debate that he’s either that good at taking the Daleks on cuz he’s a good Dalek or that he’s seen into the doctors mind and copied it and become like him.

Peter Capaldi and Clara Oswald had the best episodes together , I just love it ...

Series 8 is absolutely fantastic upon release I wasn’t rlly into it. God I was so wrong I’ve rewatched it since it’s 11 pretty good to amazing spades and 1 bad one with redeemable qualities. Like seriously. Deep breath is great. Into the Dalek is rlly good. The Robin Hood episode is fantastic. Listen is a masterpiece. Time heist is so unique and huge. Caretaker is good. Kill the moon I think has awesome stuff in it between the Doctor and Clara. Mummy on the orient express is fantastic. Flatline is awesome. Forest in the night is bad with good stuff. The final two parter I think is rlly fun and great with all of unit and the Master being so fun and exciting for his first finale.

I was and will forever be a Smith as the Doctor fan. I was initially against Capaldi continuing on as the Doctor; however, I have started to come around to him as I appreciate his Cynicism, and his one liner not to mention the one-liners about him being Scottish. Nothing against Tennant, I just have a very hard time understanding him when he talks, and usually have to turn on closed captioning. Now all that being said, the scene where Smith calls Clara has always stood out to me, as I felt like Smith was talking directly to the audience with what he had to say.
