*That's* what I love about The Doctor and a 50% of what I watch the show for. The Doctor's ability to read people as easily as reading a simple book. It sometimes makes me wonder if, with their low-level telepathic capabilities, The Doctor is able to get inside a person's head (quite literally) and figure out what type of person they are with 100% accuracy. It's as though they're a real doctor, scientist, teacher, and psychologist at the same time (although, unlike actual psychologists, The Doctor's methods of therapy actually work). All in all, it's just...great!

Joseph Simpson I’d hardly call the Sontarans soldiers. They’re warriors. Looking at how UNIT tackled them in The Poison Sky you can see the difference between soldiers and warriors.

[@bleepsy]

The gear isn't really supposed to be overly tactical. Sontarans don't really do long marches or careful maneuvers that would require lighter gear. They're more like roman legionnaires than soldiers, the armour is their bulwark.

[@roberthaworth9097]

Believe it was stated in the 4th Doctor ep "The Sontaran Experiment" that the S's originated on a high-gravity planet, so everything about them is, um, robust. They are physically heavy, with high bone density and lots of muscles, and somewhat clumsy and slow, but they make up for it in fearlessness, fortitude, ruthlessness, and the ability to withstand kinetic damage that would kill a more lightly-built creature. Except damage to that port thingie, of course.

-We have an intruder! -How'd he get in? Intruder window? Buh-bye!

[@LinkTheFusky]

1:30 “how did he get in, intruder window.” 😂

[@macklee6837]

Jodie Whitaker can't even begin to hold a candle to this Doctor, or any other.

[@dtaylor4552]

Either Aiden Turner or Tom Hiddleston should be the 14th incarnation of the Doctor.

[@maidetezcan2966]

I got really excited when I found out the channel had uploaded Ten !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so happyyy

[@alexagomez111]

I miss this...so much. Not that I don't like 11 and 12 (I love these guys) but this Doctor Who, the Russell T. Davies and David Tennant era, this was just the best! I do hope Jodie can bring that feeling back... Btw, has anyone got an idea why upload this now???

[@specialunit0428]

Jodie is a feminazi and has ruined the Doctor

[@basedbattledroid3507]

Russell T Davies is coming back!!

[@faye61]

"yeah...stare at this" if i were to ever have a insult off with a bully i'd use the doctors one liners

[@tsarbomba1]

General Staal is played by Christopher Ryan. Also know as Mike from "The Young Ones".

[@tychogoedhart286]

"Awh that's not a very good nickname, what if you do get defeated? Staal the not quite so undefeated anymore but never mind?" Brilliant, just brilliant

[@timeywimeynardole2974]

One of the best of series 4. Love this story.

[@theweirdofengland]

This is a great Doctor moment. As soon as he picks up the tennis bat you know what he’s planning.

[@scsutton1]

And now we're about to get the OG Sontarans in the Flux, whatever the hell that is.

[@michelvanderlinden8363]

"INTRUDER!" "How did he get in? In-Tru-der window?" Thats top tier comedy writing and nobody can change my mind

[@charlesweber5052]

OHH I GET IT! Holy crap that took years!

[@eliesh3833]

I didn't initially get it because of his accent, and I'm an American. But knowing this, it's even funnier now.

[@FirlowXD]

“.....it’s been a long time since someone’s said no to you hasn’t it”

[@VillainessBarbie]

oh Ten, I miss you.

[@brownhard]

How did he get in? Intruder window? That part makes me laugh every time

[@josephkoester3217]

I love how the kid thinks he's smarter than the doctor.

[@dr3wbis]

One of my favorite little episode series of David Tennant, and probably Doctor Who as a whole.

[@Stephen_Lafferty]

The only Tenth Doctor episodes I have yet to see, having been away on their original transmission dates!
