So, at the point HERE, how much classic Dr who had you seen? Just the episode where Susan is left? Also, how do I find your discord? I am on there but a newb so I have no idea what I am doing...

2023-10-26 10:21:49 +0000 UTCThe pilot episode had Susan saying that she was born in the 49th Century. Fortunately, that was altered in the broadcast version and mystery heightened as to where and when The Doctor and Susan had come from. Susan saying that she had made up the name TARDIS could be an obfuscation. She's learnt from a pro.

2023-03-14 20:47:01 +0000 UTCI love that you are watching the classic shows. You should watch the first and last story of every classic Doctor, just to see all his regenerations.

2023-03-12 00:10:47 +0000 UTCThey changed Susans dialouge. She said here "I was born in another time" on the old DVD they went with the first draft. "I was born in the 25th century"

2023-03-11 20:28:05 +0000 UTCI would echo what others have said, the first 3 serials 'An Unearthly Child', 'The Daleks' and 'The Edge of Destruction' all exist in their entirety. If you can watch all the way though those stories it will be very worth your while.

2023-03-11 19:55:14 +0000 UTCFrom an early draft: Dr. Who and Susan (or Suzanne in the earliest drafts) escaped their homeworld in a "Change and Dimensional Electronic Selector and Extendor" after it was invaded by the Palladin hordes who are still pursuing them. The Doctor is a "Lord of the House of Dooclare" and Suzanne is "Findooclare," the rightful heir of their enslaved homeworld. This is an even earlier description of the Doctor: DR. WHO A frail old man lost in space and time. They give him this name because they don't know who he is. He seems not to remember where he has come from; he is suspicious and capable of sudden malignance; he seems to have some undefined enemy; he is searching for something as well as fleeing from something. He has a "machine" which enables them to travel together through time, through space, and through matter. [Page 2 of 4]

2023-03-10 19:59:21 +0000 UTCPlease don't skip the rest of An Unearthly Child. Things will make so much more sense going into the next story if you've see the whole of this story. :)

2023-03-10 15:11:30 +0000 UTCI have a HUGE soft spot for the Cushing films (mostly because I'm a mega Cushing stan in general) and actually find those films lots of fun. Plus, in the second one, the Gals could see a young Bernard Cribbins! <3 <3 (In the novelization of 'Day of the Doctor', for funsies, Moffat added an exchange in the UNIT Black Archives between Kate Stewart and Clara that puts the movies into the show's canon -- kind of. Basically, the Doctor -- the First Doctor? -- allowed movies based on his adventures to be made in the mid-60s, and he even became friends with Peter Cushing. In fact, they were such good friends he took the aging actor to the future -- after the time of his death -- to appear in a movie, a nod to Cushing’s CGI resurrection in Rogue One -- LOL)

2023-03-10 05:17:11 +0000 UTCI was sooo happy when the BBC FINALLY started crediting Delia Derbyshire for the theme. I mean, yes, Ron Grainer TECHNICALLY wrote the theme/melody, but it was Derbyshire that brought the haunting theme to life so brilliantly! <3 (For any Behind the Scenes fans, here's a little vid about the making of the theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsRuhCflRyg -- There's also some other great documentaries about Delia out there too, but this is a nice start)

2023-03-10 04:55:33 +0000 UTCThe Doctor is definitely not the hero at the start of the series. Ian and Barbara are our identification figures, and the Doctor is a vaguely sinister unknown quantity. How that changed is one of the most interesting aspects of the first few stories. Another fascinating thing is watching the makers get around (or sometimes fail to get around) the technical limitations of what they could do. At this early stage, what you're seeing is basically a filmed stage play; there's exactly one edit in the entire episode, at the moment of entry into the TARDIS. Everything else is recorded continuously, as if live, switching between cameras on the fly (as we saw recreated in "An Adventure in Space and Time"). For instance, in the flashback scenes of Susan in the classroom, Ian and Barbara are heard but not seen. That's because they're still sitting in the car on the other set, delivering their lines from off camera... :)
Steven Cooper
2023-03-09 23:34:55 +0000 UTCThe one thing that The Doctor is attempting at all times is to lead attention away from the police box. Barbara was near it and he was hoping, via leading Ian away from it, that she would follow. Didn't work. He spent the whole time trying to redirect and obfuscate. Of course, when Susan yelled "What are you doing out there?", the game was up! Grabbing Barbara's arm and trying to lead her away would have been seen as too aggressive and Ian would have, gallant as he was, taken protective action.

2023-03-09 23:05:40 +0000 UTCAny plans to watch the non-canon Dr. Who movies starring Peter Cushing as Mr. Doctor Who? They're from the late 60's era and seem like they >could< be canonical... but they're not :) And they're great!

2023-03-09 21:57:32 +0000 UTCSuch a good show. I hope it does well and we get more of it. 😏
Bill
2023-03-09 21:31:11 +0000 UTCAll the Classic Who episode are on Amazon prime through britbox even if you don't have the britbox addon I would suggest looking up classic who on amazon for a list of all available episodes, then use Wikipedia if you want to know what the missing episodes are.

2023-03-09 20:50:02 +0000 UTCPlease watch the rest of the story and the following two stories as they showcase how the Doctor changes withe presence of Barbara and Ian
Martyn Hill
2023-03-09 20:16:45 +0000 UTCYes, I remember that. We were shown how in primary school in the 60s. I started school on the cusp of the Troughton era. The French Revolution book looked like a school library book.
Josef Schiltz
2023-03-09 20:14:16 +0000 UTCThe whole story exists. The umbrella title is 'The Unearthly Child' for the entire four part serial, however the following episode titles are 'The Cave Of Skulls', 'The Forest Of Fear' and 'The Firemaker'.

2023-03-09 19:51:43 +0000 UTCWe were required in school to cover our text books in brown paper every year to protect them. You had the books on loan from the school after all.

2023-03-09 19:49:10 +0000 UTCIt was very common in time's past to make a workable dust cover for hardcover books that had lost their jackets out of parcel paper - or any cheap available paper. I have a few in my own family's library - One of 'Caesar The King's Dog' which was a children's book about the passing of King Edward VII and the little dog that said "Where's Master?" My mother had made a dust jacket out of parcel paper because we owned a post office and general store. I suspect school wear and tear had necessitated an emergency cover with The French Revolution.
Josef Schiltz
2023-03-09 19:30:50 +0000 UTCTh first 3 serials exist in their entirety. You only should have a gap with Marco Polo. Please don't skip any of the first serial. The episodes should be on daily motion they used to be.

2023-03-09 19:09:55 +0000 UTCIm too old, the First Doctor & his Tardis always looks strange to me in color.
Mark Ten
2023-03-09 18:52:45 +0000 UTCThis episode aired 11/23/63 the night after Kennedy was assassinated so nobody was watching or in the mood for scifi. The show was pretty much dead on arrival except that Verity Lambert, the BBC's first woman producer fought to have it rebroadcast (something pretty much unheard of at the time). Imagine that, except for her getting a last minute reprieve, no Doctor Who ever... talk about your Wibbly-Wobbly.
Mark Ten
2023-03-09 18:46:54 +0000 UTCThe original theme was done before the advent of synthesizers. Electronic oscillators & musical notes & sounds were recorded one note at a time, enhanced, reversed, sped up/slowed down, etc and each individual sound/tione/note cut and pasted on a strip of tape. Delia Derbyshire for decades never received the credit she deserves for creating the first electronic TV theme.
Mark Ten
2023-03-09 18:19:08 +0000 UTCI'm just about to start watching— I haven't hit the play button yet— but first: YESSSS! I was hoping this was the Wibbly Wobbly lever you'd pull next! EDIT after watching: the rest of this serial is generally considered a lesser story overall, it's the next one that really took off. I personally think it's better than its reputation, and would be with you if you decide to watch it all, but if you're looking to hit the Classic highlights then going straight to the next serial is a decent choice. On the Doctor's character here: in the earliest episodes he was verging on the antagonist rather than the hero. It's Ian and Barbara who change him: a point noticed decades later when Donna tells the Tenth Doctor that he needs human companions to keep him on track.
