Best & Worst of THE FIRST DOCTOR (The Final Who Retrospective)

[@TakeNoteOfThat]

"Why is the youngest Doctor the wisest?" Here's the thing: of all the Doctors, the First is the only one to have have lived an entire life. He was born, he was a child, grew into young adulthood, middle age and finally the indignities of old age. In contrast, the Second Doctor on, we're seeing a new incarnation come into being, fully formed as an adult. They may be chronologically older, but they are not older in terms of their maturity. The Second Doctor did not experience childhood (aside from the limited memories they each seem to carry on). He didn't experience seeing himself grow larger, stronger, more capable, before witnessing his own slow slide into old age. When in a group, people naturally defer to the oldest member of the group as a leader, or at least as someone who's opinion matters. This could be merely politeness, but I believe it is also recognition of the lifetime of information and experiences they have gained. I'm pretty well educated and have a successful career. But if my 81 year old grandfather were to walk in the door right now, I'd see him as the more experienced person in general. Similarly, the First Doctor is treated as a respected elder by the other Doctors for the same reasons: politeness, and recognition that he has really EARNED his white hair and wrinkles. "Wow, here's a guy who actually lived and experienced hundreds of years of learning that I only vaguely remember. Better listen to him, if only because he's so damn tetchy!" Great video!

I love susan, I love the romans, the space museum and some of his target books are the best to be found. Somebody else said it but it couldn’t be more true, the first four doctors are the best and that’s just fact. I wish there wasn’t so many missing episodes, it’s tragic.

[@christopherlockery9629]

@Jack The Film Fanatic Same here, only I add also David Tennant as an honourable mention... However really in my humble opinion I like them all, as an old soldier once said they are all splendid chaps (plus one lady) all of them... But yes, when you cut it down to the bare facts the first four Doctor's are the best and they always will be. The first 18 years of the Classic Series will never, ever be bettered! Maybe you'll get the odd episode or storyline, or even perhaps maybe a season that will equal those first 18 years, but no they will never, ever be bettered. Happy Times and Places

[@costelinha1867]

And this is the next story I'm going to watch.

[@TakeNoteOfThat]

I agree. Dalek Invasion of Earth isn't any bettef, and is half as fun. Daleks on the Mary Celeste, for Gods sake!

[@costelinha1867]

@@TakeNoteOfThat I still think Dalek Invasion is the definitive Hartnel Dalek story, the chase is good but it's more of a comedic story. Master Plan starts out well, but then starts to miss the original tone in the later episodes, and they bring up the Monk for seamingly no good reason. (Not to mention that it's really long and in no way justify it's 12 parts. Also it's one of those stories that are really hurt by missing episodes.)

[@Attempt62]

Completely agree on Web Planet. That story left my watching party painfully waiting for it to be over, and wow did it hurt. It's the best example I've seen of production value aging to the point of enjoyment for modern viewers being an impossibility.

And it took till the fifth for a regeneration to settle into what you know

[@englishgiraffe2124]

And now it ends. And with my second favourite Doctor (favourite is McGann). Such charisma, such warmth, with a wise and complex Doctor, with the best character arc in the franchise. And some of the most invigorating companions (Ian, Barbara, Vicki and Steven) and imaginative stories, such as The Aztecs, Dalek Invasion of Earth, The Romans, Time Meddler, Daleks Master Plan and many others being sublime. Truly a spectacular era.

[@samuelbarber6177]

My two favourite Hartnell stories have to be The Tenth Planet and The Daleks. The Daleks has this slow yet quick pace that really makes this seven parter feel more like a five parter. It arguably saved the show as it was originally going to be cancelled after just thirteen episodes. The Daleks ensured the show would survive. The Tenth Planet is a methodically paced base under siege. Some would say it is the original base under Seige story, the first appearance of the Cybermen is one of their best. It's only hampered by the idiotic General Cutler, though of course you're meant to be assuming he has some screws loose anyway, and some rather questionable science.

[@DrEeveeYT]

ok, now onto defending stuff. I like the Monk. I don't think he makes the Doctor look like a hypocrite if you do him right. They both meddle with time, yes. But the Doctor does it in the best interests of the universe, and realises when they can stop most of the time. The Monk does it because he is selfish. the last season of the Lucie Miller audios touch on this well in my opinion. I like the Marinus and I think the only letdown is the Voord. I like The Celestial Toymaker but I only listened to the audio and I feel it'd be not so great if it was found. I've already touched on the racism. I agree with you on Dodo, and it should've been darker instead of childish I do agree. But I think its fun, in the same way you find The Romans fun except I'm in the minority and it's less problematic to enjoy The Romans. Galaxy 4. I liked the recon on The Aztecs DVD but I'm scared it'll be shit if I watch the full thing. The Web Planet is bad. it sounds like something that heck, both of us specifically would find something in but there's NOTHING. I like the scale, that's it.

[@mathewmarshall6266]

Amazing video! I've been so hyped for it!

[@samuelbarber6177]

Number 1 is one of my favourite Doctors. I understand that Troughton is really more iconic and influential, but I’ve always had a fondness for the “wise old mentor” character in fiction, for me he recalls Obi-Wan Kenobi, Professor Albus Dumbledore, Charles Xavier. There’s also a classic feel to his stories, this is where it all began and I often love the first in a series of stories (my favourite Star Wars is A New Hope, my favourite movie of all time as well). The stories also feel so unique, as very few of them are what Doctor Who became or it is now. The stories are very slowly paced and dramatic. Even the High-Concept Sci-fi never feels the same as the Troughton space stories, and so incredibly different to Pertwee, Baker, McCoy, Smith or really any Doctor. Heck, it’s the only era where every episode of nearly every story has its own title and ends with ‘Next Episode (title of the next episodes)’. The first time we got a Troughton style story must’ve been The Tenth Planet, but contrast that with The Sensorites, or The Reign Of Terror.

I think they did plan on adapting The Chase as the third Doctor Who and The Daleks movie after Invasion of Earth 2150 A.D. but it didn't do as well as the first so they sadly scrapped it, shame they couldn't have completed a trilogy of films curious of how they would adapt it especially the ending.

[@toast99bubbles]

Two great things about The Web Planet are that it was partially inspirational for Captain Scarlett and the Mysterons (notably the rubbing of vaseline on the camera, used for a scene in Captain Scarlett), as well as the fact that when Classic Who was being streamed on Twitch, The Web Planet was actually trending and was one of the most anticipated stories on the stream, all because of what I think was something stupid like a misplaced disc or something like that.

I’ve always felt that the Doctor Starts out as more alien and the more he’s around his human companions, the more human he becomes!

[@julieeverett7442]

and he does, you have to remember THIS doctor, despite his aged appearance is only 250/300 years old, by Gallifreyan standards only a young man, early to mid 20's by human standards, and no, he is not human, nor does he pretend to be, but he DOES learn to appreciate other ideas as he goes along. There are many theories as to why in the multi doctor stories, the later doctors defer to the youngest, the main one being he is the most pure, he grew up on Gallifrey from child to young adult and is more aware of some things, he is also chronologically the oldest (up til 11th) not actual age, but age in incarnation. Think about it as stated he was about 300 years old when he regenerated. 2nd stated he was 450 earth years old 4ths age went from 742 to 759 during his 7 year run, so how old was 2nd and 3rd when THEY regenerated? If you even it out about 150 years each 6th stated he was 900 7th 956 so how old was 5th again only about 100 years. Each new incarnation is quite young and quite easily influenced. So yes, he does become more human, the most human being 10th the most utterly alien is actually 4th

Hartnell and Troughton have always been the 2 people that gave us the doctor who we have today and have it their longevity. Hartnell made children fall in love with the doctor.. troughton made the nation fall in love with doctor who. Legends As for Moffat, I don’t understand the constant complaints that he made the first doctor sexist and a misogynist when that’s what the first doctor was actually like. In multiple stories he actually says he’s gonna slap Susan’s “bottom” and makes similar comments like he did to Bill yet everyone acts like Moffat disrespected hartnell.

[@samuelbarber6177]

Well, there's a difference to threatening to smack your teenage granddaughter and doing the same to a fully grown woman you just met. I don't really have much of a problem with Moffat's portrayal of the First Doctor, I'm just saying it was rather strange, especially given this was Tenth Planet Hartnell, not Unearthly Child Hartnell. I'm just going to guess he was just trying to annoy 12 or convince the Captain he was human.

I always wish the The Monk would come back with an updated version of the argument. Coming up with a good argument would be interesting. Maybe have The Doctor argue that humanity NEEDS to have gone through certain struggles to strengthen us as a species. Show a Meddling Monk version of the world where humanity has never struggled with anything, and has become lazy, and never spreads into the rest of the universe, eventually being destroyed by the expansion of the sun.

What happens when they follow through on your two doctor idea though? Would you do a best of the Fourteenth Doctors?! (Plural) Or a separate video for each?

Beg pardon... 22:40 What "key quest" happens in "The Trial of a Timelord"? The key to The Gallifreyan Matrix of Time is mentioned but it's mostly about stopping "The Valeyard" not the key itself... And as for "The Web Planet"... Things could be far, *far worse...* kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIWYfYSqZshmjcU
