Harbo has now canonised the elusive children of earth reviews in the lore of his channel now

[@CJ-qp7hi]

The Doctor's destiny to save Gallifrey intricately links with events such as the cracks leading to Trenzalore during the 11th incarnation. This path allowed 11 to defy regeneration rules. The influence extends to the 12th Doctor convincing the 1st to regenerate, creating a temporal dependency. This renders the Doctor a fixed event in time and space, seemingly immortal with regenerative abilities, potentially leading to rewriting time and the emergence of a multiverse with parallel fam members like Bel and Vindor. 13 found fugitives Tardis in the future after being the timeless child Fugitive was saved from division by 13s Tardis dropping her to earth.

Crazy nominative determinism there, can't believe your brother is literally called Brother Wholmes

I’m now intrigued as to what Harbo’s beef is with whoculture

[@craighalliday0276]

Probably that he makes better content but has less than half the subscribers

He used to date Ellie Littlechild and hasn't taken the split well

[@Reginald425]

Occasionally poor videos

[@benruniko]

I do love River Song. She is one of the characters who would have been amazing with some more rewrites. Also, my hot take is that I also love Strax. Yes he is dumb and silly and never useful. But his gormless “melt him with acid!” Makes me chuckle every time.

[@PosthumanHeresy]

He's basically Worf, and like... who doesn't love Worf?

[@Wolf359inc]

Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart holds a unique position in Doctor Who lore. Not a formal “companion” as such, as he hardly ever accompanies the Doctor in the TARDIS, but was often the catalyst prompting the Doctor’s adventures. He began as a “side character of the week”, and eventually becomes the Doctor’s boss, when the Doctor takes on the position of UNIT’s first Scientific Advisor, when he is stranded on Earth. Often depicted as a somewhat pompous military person, with a military mind, the Doctor changes him, opening his eyes, and teaching him that the “military” solution does not have to be the only solution. He changes the Doctor, too, by showing him that he is capable of accepting new ideas. The two end up having great respect for each other, with the Brigadier being one of the few characters who meets several of the Doctor’s various incarnations, and is privy to such knowledge as the Doctor’s ability to regenerate. His character’s passing has a profound impact on the Doctor, with him taking it as a sign that perhaps he has lived too long, and it is time for him to travel to the place known as where the Doctor makes his last stand, and is no more. The only other character to have such an impact on the Doctor (and the audience) would have to be companion Sarah-Jane Smith (deceased), portrayed by Elisabeth Sladen. May she rest in peace. Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (deceased) became that rarest thing a non-/ sometimes- companion can be in the show: a trusted and valued friend. Rest in peace, Nicholas Courtney.

Tbh, I think one of the best examples of his character development comes from something most of the fandom isn't aware of: Eight's audio drama run. Seasons of Fear is a Eight Doctor audio drama, and features him as part of the supporting cast. There's a fifty first American state forming, via separating from another state. It's never said exactly which state, but it is made _very_ clear it's in the Bible Belt. Alistair is sent in by UNIT half-undercover, openly himself but supposedly retired and there to help out with the transference of power and stuff, because they've become aware that there's technology there that could be used to take a human's mind out of their body, edit them, and then implant them back inside their body. The Doctor meanwhile ended up getting his mind scrambled while landing, mixing it together with a human and having severe amnesia, upon which both he and the guy it happened with are thrown in an asylum. Where said machine is. And the asylum is run by the modern-day Hellfire Club. Who also are responsible for the new state situation, because they'll be the shadow government of that state and use the political clout they can amass that way to sail to the presidency. The Brig is basically operating like The Doctor minus the time travel throughout. He's a solo operative in a foreign country, he can't exactly approach things with a combat perspective, especially since he's an old man now. Since The Doctor is in an asylum, after his companion escapes the Hellfire Club (who tried to make her into a sex slave) alongside and thanks to a Buffy knockoff powered by Catholic magic (it's a weird episode, okay? it's so much better than it sounds), she manages to meet up with him and he does a lot of the Doctoring. It's really wonderful to see how he's grown and learned from The Doctor. They also meet several times while The Doctor is insane and once again amnesiac, and he has no idea since it's Eight. Once the truth is revealed, it's really heartwarming. Eight is a much more emotionally open Doctor and calls him in full honesty "my best friend" in glee.

[@mathieuleader8601]

I always wanted the Fugitive Doctor to be Romana having taken the Doctors name to honor her former mentor whom she believed had perished in the Time War

[@EddJones25]

Pfft, "typecast" Once you play The Doctor, it's gonna stick during your career whether you followed the "Three Series Rule" or not, so may as well just do however much you want regardless

[@CedricLlwyd]

Torchwood is gonna be brought back to air before you finally release the children of earth review 😭

[@Freezer28528]

Lol, torchwood will never come back.

Since it wasn't mentioned when the Witcher 3 segment was, I want to bring up that LEGO Batman 3 Beyond Gotham also had Weeping Angel Easter eggs. In one of the levels and one of the hub world areas, there are angel statues that cover their face and change position when you look away and look back

[@Foxy02016]

Edge of Time was so much fun, but I miss the Skype bot where you’d help 12! I should try out the Adventure Games, just gotta make sure Rory doesn’t go overboard

[@missingaria2503]

I hate hate hate hate HATE the Midnight episode with the kind of passion that makes me actually happy to be so uncomfortable. It's so well done.

[@Jackson-ub1uv]

It's the kind of episode that's _designed_ to make you hate the characters, whilst also making you feel _ashamed_ at the fact that you can understand them.

[@ehumphrey]

39:35 The twelfth doctor had another sonic screwdriver in series 10 (the blue one) before his regeneration. I’m unsure but this could mean 12 is the regeneration that had the most sonic device designs? The green one from Matt Smith, the sunglasses, and the blue one.

[@Freezer28528]

33:22 Season 7: Am I a joke to you?

[@Acknowledgerofdoctorwho]

Love to see this series continued! I loved your first video on the iceberg.

[@Lukusprime]

Actually I’ve gotta say an official alphabet for modern Gallifreyan would be disastrous, because in “Good Man Goes to War” the Doctor gives Melody/River his crib, as in, *his* crib from when he was a baby, complete with his name on the side written in modern Gallifreyan. So an official alphabet would give us the ability to translate that name, and unceremoniously answer the biggest question in the show’s entire history

[@joshsobchak9902]

Personally I don't really think the iceberg concept really applies to Doctor Who. At least from what I've noticed, either you've only seen the show from 2005 on or you know about Faction Paradox and Zygon porn.

[@carsforever4002]

3:18 I love that line hahaha 😂 SJA Alien Files should really be on iPlayer or on DVD maybe as part of a series 1-5 blu ray release

[@tobynorris]

Pleasantly surprised by the amount of stuff I didn't know this early in to the iceberg.

[@CriticalPenguin]

Great vid, although would deffo argue the 90s Reeltime & BBV output is canon ✨

This was a great video! Thank you for this🙏🏼

33:23 Season 7 Third Doctor when he was condemned to Earth in exile from the Timelords (Follow on from War Games Patrick Troughton’s final Story)

33:22 season 7 (classic) also doesn’t leave the solar system

[@markfernkopf5133]

The Hybrid prophecied to destroy Gallifrey and stand in his ruins was The Master when he combined with The Cyberium, meaning The Doctor was directly responsible to bringing The Hybrid into fruition by giving The Lone Cyberman what it wanted despite the dire warning , fulfilling her part of the prophecy.

Does anyone else remember doctor who game maker, that was my childhood. Also, that infimous episode of the £1 million mound drop where the couple were given an imposibe doctor who question better be on here.

[@squirrelcamera5282]

Is there any chance you could slow it down slightly in the next one? I’m 13 minutes in but had to stop the video because it’s giving me a headache trying to follow along. You’re jumping straight from the end of one subject to the start of the next, all edited together without even a breath between. I just can’t keep up with all the information at once. Love the channel bro but I feel like Adam getting the data chip installed in my head lol
