Tbh, i really love Matt Smith's first console, may seem weird but I think it defines his doctor

[@edwardmarshall8333]

Yes i agree

[@melancholymelon5316]

It shows his fairy tale magical messy personality by being all strange and colourful with random shapes it does really define him especially with Amy as she was part of what made him him and when he lost her that all changed and he got a darker gloomier TARDIS with less personality to show he's lost alot but when he regenerates he is ready for a new life as capaldi with Clara so he takes his sadness and turns it to life by warming up the colours and giving it book shelves and chairs but then in Jodie's era her TARDIS is very strange and curious like her with a more magestic design and back to the eckelston TARDIS it shows his post war pain and suffering as he and the TARDIS are both beaten and broke but when Tennant takes it he is still not accepting the loss of rose so keeps the design until he accepts it and leaves it as a memorial to his past before moving on to a new era with Smith sorry for the long comment

[@thegallifreyanwhovian2544]

Capaldi's updated Tardis from 2015-2017 is THE Tardis for me. It's just perfect. We have beautiful illuminated roundels, a stunning console and interconnected time rotor, and an amazing mad scientist technological feel to it. But most of all, the whole interior is literally shaped like a 'shell' of sorts, so it neatly combines the mechanical and organical feelings. What a TARDIS! 😍

I think the easiest fix for Thirteen’s TARDIS interior is to spread out those pillars. They’re very close together and they kind of cramp up the console. Make them further apart and the whole room would open up.

I love the Eccleston/Tennant Tardis. It looked and felt alive, from the coral like girders to the way its background noise sounded like breathing. It really was beautiful.

[@OscarOSullivan]

It reinforced the bigger on the inside aspect with the steps up to the rest of the Tardis. A Tardis is a Time Lord campervan.

[@hiccuphufflepuff176]

What you said at the end about a flight deck versus living machine: I couldn't agree more. Whittaker's gave me the same vibe as Eccleston/Tennant's because it feels more like an alien creature than a spaceship, which better reflects the nature of the TARDIS. Even though I liked Capaldi's better, I can appreciate what they were going for with the new one and it's pulled off well. I find it funny when people talk about Smith's and Capaldi's as two different console rooms. I remember laughing when Clara got the "you've redecorated" line about it because he literally did just "redecorate" it. He added some furniture and items: it's the exact same room. Although, I suppose it does change the atmosphere a bit.

[@gbsheard]

Yeah completely agree. With your last point, I'd agree but people would be quick to complain if I grouped them together haha! Plus by the end Series 10, so many changes have been made that it's barely the same, so I think it's nice to separate the two as they both glow beautifully but in different ways

[@Scroteydada]

It looks like it was puked out

[@orchNEStra]

The TARDIS is always going to be a machine to me, and the "Living, grown" thing they pushed later in the series will never sit well with me. I love the mechanical grey/white roundals, and those will always be the definitive and proper TARDIS interior look.

[@matrix2ser982]

As is everyone's.

[@chaos2called640]

I really like Smith's first TARDIS. Yes the console parts were a bit silly but common the whole show is a bit silly and that's what I love about it. I also really liked the glass floor, made it feel way bigger and generally I feel like it was the "highest" one, the leveled design was just great. And well the warm colors. I was never a fan of the mechanical looking designs, they lacked the "fantastic" feeling, it feels so sterile. If the crystals of S11+ wouldn't look so plastic I would say "yay we go warm again, not those operation rooms".

[@evilyoufromthefuture6659]

It was the last tardis to feel like it had a swimming pool in a library, the console of Smith's first filled me with so much wonder like 'what do the hot and cold knobs do?' I personally like Matt Smith, I grew up with him as my doctor, always so jumpy and excited, like a child. I actually kinda like The thirteenth Doctor, Jodie, since it almost captures Smith's eagerness and some of the episodes give little treats and references to older episodes, like Kerblam! Where she mentions the time she fought a giant wasp (10th Doctor) or how she first receives a fez (11th). Sure Jodie's stories might be a bit crap, but its kinda like home. You have a crappy day at work but in the end, you still go back, the Tardis is still going to be the same, I do like neatness and Jodie's is nothing neat, but the awkward theme is reflected, what-other design would you get from wearing a trench coat, sweater, shorts and sneakers like you just fell into a rack at goodwill? Seems a bit silly and I like that

[@OscarOSullivan]

Smith’s first feels steam punky I would love to see that Olympic sized swimming pool.

Eccleston and Tennant Tardis has always been my favorite and probably will be for a long time.

[@kobizarre2003]

Ace creeper: plays Vale decem Me: Thinks about ten, starts crying.

[@xell4701]

My favourite will always be McGanns console room. The almost steam punk aesthetic and homely feel really suit the doctor in my opinion. Shame we never got to see more of it or more of the 8th doctor on TV, the mini episode McGann did for the 50th really proved why he’s one of the best doctors

[@darricktv9857]

Personally Paul McGann is my favorite Doctor and I love his portrayal! Also his Tardis is my favorite and his sonic is fantastic.

[@lynchie2073]

yes! thats exactly why i love the eccleston/tennant console! i always felt the classic ones were a little too impersonal. the beautiful 2005 tardis feels lived in and feels alive. it truly feels like an ancient, breathing machine. belongings and parts are scattered, making it feel like people actually live there. i also think it reflects the doctor at the time; hes not calm, happy, or completely in control of himself and a tardis thats a little bit patched together and unpredictable mirrors that

[@OscarOSullivan]

Agreed

[@greenmonsterprod]

The McGann version is my favorite. Visually impressive and well-designed. Nice to see that its look is referenced later, primarily in the latter Smith and Capaldi versions.

[@Damon_Blue]

McGann's is also my favorite version of the Tardis interior, and I'm not sure why. I think I just like that it looks more like a place to live than the others. Not saying other Tardis interiors are bad (they're all great), McGann's is just my favorite.

[@pigpig252]

To me the Capaldi Tardis is absolute peak. It has the fantastically atmospheric silver and blue futuristic finish combined with the personal touches of the old bookshelves and chalkboards. It plays perfectly to Capaldi's portrayal of the Doctor as more of the wise and tired old man. It feels like a home, which no other Tardis has accomplished. It's the only one I could truly say I would love to live in, not just travel in

[@MightyFerg1]

Agreed 100%.

[@joshwhitlock9855]

Doctor_7373 I completely agree with you.

[@ftumschk]

What I like about the Pertwee 1 design is that the console itself doesn't half look like a serious bit of kit; you could really believe that this was the control centre of a space/time ship. The same goes for Hartnell's, but Pertwee's was the one I literally grew up with.

[@davidhunt6463]

If I could give you a thousand likes I would because everything you said was bang on point. And Jon Pertwee was my first Doctor too.

[@doctorwhoproductions834]

I like to think that the reason McGanns Tardis isn’t in the war doctors Tardis is because the McGanns Tardis is designed by The Doctor so when the 8th doctor joined the time war the Doctor changed to make it make it more ready for action and the default roundels came back and the console changed, it probably sounds stupid but that how I like to think

[@Riskofrain527]

You're right it is stupid.

[@AngelEmfrbl]

I just imagined that he had to make it easier to maintain and was force to sacrifice form for function. Later, after the war doctors time, the doctor went really fancy as a coping method at watching his world burn.

[@BattlestarZenobia]

I prefer to think it just got trashed and rebuilt itself so many times it stuck to a basic configuration that needed minimal upkeep

[@sorrenblitz805]

Since the "Console Rooms" have been confirmed to be like computer wallpapers, it's possible that the TARDIS interior for the war doctor was set to default to make room for war intel, dalek defense protocols things the Doctor would need to survive a war.

[@sorrenblitz805]

@Graham, King of the Britons! we're not talking about real world reasons dude

[@thewandererslibrary9928]

The one thing I don’t like about thirteens TARDIS is that even the center thing in the middle of the console is just one big crystal I think maybe it should of looked like some futuristic scientific thing that looked like it was getting enhanced by the crystals

[@koppe90ko]

Thank you!

I think a classic short time rotor with a yellow glow would work. Especially if the crystals were replaced by clean versions of the coral-like arches (from Eccleston's Taris).

[@tinykemper2561]

Damn all this music is giving me feels.

[@bmvthemoviefanatic7282]

Dude, it ok man, Tennant TARDIS is AMAZING even without nostalgia. What I love about it is that it wasn't designed to look COMPLETELY like a machine, but a living creature which the TARDIS is. The light deriving from the centre of the console denoting to that being the heart of the TARDIS keeping it alive. The organic walls and columns. However, it still incorporates iconic TARDIS traits, like the circular...things on the wall, and all the controls, which feel like it was pieced together, but unlike Smith's first, all the controls felt alien. It truly FANTASTIC!

[@mr.scarlo2234]

That is my favourite console room as it was the one I grew up with but the argument you put up makes sense.

[@joshuacr]

I can't decide between David Tennant's Tardis and Matt Smith's first Tardis console. All love. Unfortunately even with the custard creme dispenser, I think the worst Tardis has to be Jodie Whittaker's. It's too damn dark, you never see it in almost all of the series, and it just doesn't work well in different angles on the few times you do see it. Your opinions may vary.

[@Riskofrain527]

Don't lie. Just admit that it's your nostalgia talking.

I didn't like Jodi's TARDIS. It was cramped, dark, and did not in any way give a sense of how big the TARDIS is inside...

[@mindyp51a]

The big difference is that in Capaldi's TARDIS (I'm using his because he immediately preceded Jodi's) you understand that not only is the TARDIS a time-and-space machine, but, don't forget, it's essentially the Doctor's home--so we saw books and the guitar and the chalkboard and chairs...as you said, like a "study" or a "studio"--when I look at Jodi's Tardis, I have to ask: where does she sit? where does she sleep? Does she just stand around the console all the time? I'd really like to see Jodi's TARDIS expanded upon in the next series.

I have to say the Baker “secondary” console is one of my favorites, and I like the bold difference of Pertwee’s “bowl” roundels. Capaldi’s is probably my favorite though.

[@Alpha121198]

Say what you will but the Smith 1 Interior has a special place in my heart. I’ve always found it kind of strange how the design of the TARDIS console room usually doesn’t have an emphasis on the size of the ship as a whole. In Smith’s first console room the TARDIS went off in all sorts of different directions, hallways and entire rooms could easily be added mentally and to the set. To this day I cannot think of many other designs quite so open or expansive.

[@TheMilkman-ur5ip]

My theory is that when The War Doctor built his console out of random parts, he put the rest in a room in the TARDIS. The 10th Doctor would still have this room when he regenerated. So when the TARDIS was healing it took parts from that room and put it on Smith's Console.

Great video! I do love the warm colors of Tennant's and Whitaker's consoles, and the fact that they look like a living, alien machine. On the other hand, they don't give me a sense that there is a ship that goes on forever attached to those consoles. They look like film sets. With Smith's (2nd) and Capaldi's, the stairs and different levels give you a sense that the Tardis is infinite. But I never liked how "mechanical" they looked. It would've worked if we didn't know the Tardis was alive. Thanks for sharing! I'd love to see a ranking of the companions.

It had space, tech, magic, old, new, futuristic, weird yet familiar, alien yet friendly and the many levels and stairs promised infinite floors and corridors. Literally and figuratively timeless.

[@andykey78]

I never really thought that the War Doctor Tardis we see in the 50th was his actual Tardis. The interior was glitching between Tennant and Smith and sort of got stuck on a greatest hits mash up of old and new somewhere in between. Instead of weapons showing how removed the War Doctor was from the Doctor it felt like to him it didn't matter what the Tardis looked like, it was just a machine with no connection to him. When the glitching stopped on 'his' console he didn't claim it as his own, he just got on piloting it. So I'm not convinced we saw the Tardis from the Time War.

[@tenmark7055]

In the new era the Tardis console/control rooms became too whimsical (Matt Smith had a built in pinball machine!), if the Tardis is building it's own consoles then adding digital clocks, gramophones, manual typewriters, etc. made no sense - that would be the kind of thing that the Doctor would need to add to replace damaged parts. And maybe I miss that aspect a little of the 'knackered' outdated Tardis. It was overused during the classic era storylines, but when the Tardis goes to the wrong place now it no longer feels natural. Smith 2 & Capaldi's consoles became more 'practical', though there were far more controls that they could ever need or use. The current control room no longer feels like this is the Doctor's home. There's no personal possessions or space, not even a hat rack or a bookshelf or even a fringed lamp.

There's a few unecessary walls, but I love the claws a lot, plus the only TARDIS to have the actual police box at the front, which I adore. I also think the walls have hidden the rest of the TARDIS, and if we get an episode where we see more spaces for all of thirteens stuff, it'll go up in a lot of rankings.

God, 13’s TARDIS is like the one thing keeping me from loving series 11... it’s awful. It’s Farscape not Doctor Who!

[@tylerbolton475]

Really well said, fully agree. My favourite is the giant ring that makes the noise as it goes round in Smith and Capaldi’s console

[@karlitatv]

Am I the only one who doesn't like 9 and 10's tardis that much? I think 11's first tardis and 12's tardis take the top spot for me, they both look so welcoming and big, I love them and obviously 1's tardis too. That's the Top 3 for me.

[@TacticalMinionz]

Completely agree, 9th/10th doctor TARDIS is by far the best, it's dirty, realistic and connects with me the most. I honestly feel like I could fly that TARDIS simply because its so iconic

When we first stepped into Smiths at the end of 11th hour I absolutely hated it! A further couple of stories in and it quickly became my favourite. That warm orange lighting, asymmetrical messy walls and levels and that glass floor!! It worked harmoniously with Smiths quirky offbeat Doctor. Easily my favourite.

[@itsyourmumsgf]

I personally love 13's, i don't know why, i like her i guess 'wall details' and the console too, it looks really mismatched and industrial? Put polished too? I'm not sure how to describe it, but i like the vibes 😂

[@viridimagoria1778]

It looks breathtaking

[@theletterb4789]

Now you did not talk about it on this video, but my favorite Doctor interior is the unused Tardis interior from the cancelled Doctor Who season. It combines all the good stuff from the 11th/12th Doctor’s interior with the classic 80s interior. And it’s lovely.

[@mindyp51a]

I loved Capaldi's console because it really gave a sense of personality. Pretty much everything you said, Ace!

[@bryansalvagejr757]

Whittaker’s would have been last on my list as i hate the crystals. Looks to much like a spa! Lol Great video man! Agree with your number one choice!

Matt smiths first tardis is my favourite

[@carb_8781]

11th's feels cozier than all the others to me. but 9th/10th's and 12th's really are magnificent

[@Nexus_2002]

I have a theory to explain why the war doctor Tardis doesn’t really make sense as a design lineage. The default Tardis console is the classic Tardis, but my theory is that during the time war the time lords changed the default console room to have the new console room. Since the doctor wasn’t really the doctor during the war he decided that he wasn’t going to customize his interior.

[@dylanlewis3038]

My favorite is Capaldi’s TARDIS. I prefer the red over the greenish color Smith had. The bookshelves are great. I love the hexagonal console, the clicky buttons and switches, and the telepathic circuits, and the levers were great. The two rotating screens were cool. The spinning top of the time rotor with the alternating rings look amazing, especially with the outer white lights spinning. The return of the roundels was great, and they lit up adding color. The only thing I would change would’ve been upping the lighting. Normally it looked great, but in some scenes it looked too dark.

After a while, its grown on me. In the right light it looks amazing, the console feels organic and alive, the displays being projected onto mist was a cool idea but I don't think it ever was used, and while I would have done the crystal pillars differently I wouldn't remove them either. The set dressing is great, its the writing, and the writing alone, that is utter trash. I wouldn't even wipe my arse with Chibs' scripts.

[@Usernumber777]

No I like it, console looks more analog with the chrystal giving some organic references

[@OzBaxter]

Given the size and layout, I always felt the McGann one was the original Hartnell Console Room updated and rebuilt in hardwood. But the smaller ones from Troughton - McCoy was a different console room altogether, as well as the Eccleston - Capaldi being a third. Three-to-four different Console Rooms, redesigned by each Doctor. One of the reasons why Tom Baker and Sarah walked to an "Auxiliary" Console Room rather than redesign the smaller one he had been (and would be again) using.

[@owenoastler101]

i love the hurt console. it feels a bit like some sort of mid-evolution tardis. it just feels to me like it doesn’t work as the war doctor’s.

[@micahschmitz859]

Until you look at the McGann console and realise it doesn't make any sense

[@owenoastler101]

11th's 1st TARDIS was apparently a nightmare to construct & had issues & was even worse to film in. Hence the change. 12th Docs was my fave. 360 degree filming too.

Slightly pedantic correction to the Season 8 Pertwee console room... the roundels weren't transparent. They were a kind of a grid, with a space between it and a blank white wall. Lights were placed in between to give them the "Transparent" look. This is explicitly shown when the Tardis loses power in "Death to the Daleks." You get to see one of the lights on the backside of this "grid" fade out.

[@lazy1119]

the series 11 tardis interior is my least favorite because of those crystal claw things, if they got rid of them it would be so much nicer

I don't know if you noticed this but the pillars in Whittaker's, the top of them move which is quite interesting

Matt's TARDIS is my favourite. It just seems to capture the magic that his Doctor emanated. It's so beautiful, especially in it's introductory scene with Amy in The Eleventh Hour.

[@declansargent7813]

I totally agree , Eccleston/Tennant's TARDIS was my childhood design, it looks cosey and well lived in with the rustic walls and old couch , I love the coral pillars , the green lighting for the console makes it mysterious and the way the top part moves its like lungs making it feel alive as you said overall its such a sweet TARDIS design Awesome Video hugs :)

[@joesomers3949]

I'm fascinated by the TARDIS and wish I could use one of my own. It'd be interesting to see how different people would modify and expand the regular base TARDIS design into something unique to the individual that would suit their purposes.

Jodie should be at the bottom and you only tennant's console as number 1 because of nostalgia.

[@markashleypatt]

The 14th Doctor's console room has a nice feel, but feels like the camera angle are much more restricted compared to the Capaldi console. It took a few episodes of the new series to register that the girders move in sync with the rotor and think that comes down to those restricted angle. I also feel that the crystal rotor could be shaved down slightly. On the occasions it's seen up-and-downing on screen, the effect it a bit clunky and as you say, seems like a TV set. We also need some Jodie Whittaker clutter to give it a bit more depth of field.

[@itz_cam-ok1hq]

I wasn't a fan of the 13th doctors tardis until I saw the lighting changes in resolution. now Its growing on me

[@FutureRailProductions]

I like Jodie's because it goes back to more of a natural state. It's not my number one that belongs to 9 and 10 but I like how they went back to the original roots of the TARDIS to make it feel alive almost. Matt and Peter's console rooms were cool they just felt overly techy and lacked the soul the TARDIS had. David wacking the console with a hammer will always be my favorite part about his console room.

[@aesthetrick2424]

The Capaldi time router is orange not red. And the Eccleston/ Tennant time router is turquoise not green... surely.

...the coral in the Ecclestein and Tennant, with the bicycle pump and the mallet, the mess, this desk top emphasizes that the LIVING Tardis in one of the characters. Her Companion, The Doctor, periodically brings home strays. Lol. I do get that. Old Girl/aka Sexy is shown very much in that desk top and it shows the TWO of them survived the Time War and are the last of their kind. Thank you for sharing.

[@kianpfannenstiel]

First and foremost, my favorite is Smith's first console because of that homely feel followed by Eccleston (but that is because Eccleston is my favorite doctor, and everything about him is my favorite). Second, I will admit that I only watched this so that I could see all of the TARDIS interiors. Not because I actually cared about your TARDIS rankings.
