I really need to rewatch the Eccleston era. I have vague memories of great moments but have lost the context.

He was really an astounding Doctor to kick off the new era with.

If he had had more than one season he would have been hands down my favourite doctor. Because his tenure is so short, Tennant is probably my favourite

He has recently returned to so some audio stories if that helps at all!

Go back and watch it, it’s fantastic (pun entirely intended). I’ll even give you my Max login if you want.

Not the person but I just wanted to say you're so sweet and I love your username!

Wow so here’s a funny story about memory this comment just triggered.

I watched - at least I thought - only the Eccleston era before falling off. I went to look up the exact dialogue from the “don’t you think she looks tired?” Scene because I remembered (quite vividly!) Eccleston doing it!

Imagine my surprise when I watched the clip.

Ooh I have a theory to what happened! Maybe you saw the gif before you had any context of the series! Like you know it's from doctor who but nothing else. After you watched s1 and had some time, when you see the somewhat common reference "don't you think she looks tired?" Your brain knows it's familiar and so associated it with your doctor. I hope that makes sense!

Unless you later did watch the rest of the series and realized yeah you have seen it before lol.

I think Eccleston makes the threat but Tennant follows through on it

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Just like getting me hooked on the show! Eccleston did the layup and Tennant slam dunked that shit 😁❤️

Is there a dr who community on lemmy anyone knows of?? Or would be willing to run?

[–] SVcross@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It is what it is and we are what we are, but at the same time, we also are what we could be.

So like, not slaves?

I don't remember that villain from Dr Who, but it looks like Simon Pegg in that img

[–] lyam23@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is this the one with the totalitarian television network in space where people eager to compete on British gameshows are killed when they lose?

[–] Starb3an@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago

That's the one. The Long Game it is Simon Pegg
