My favorite part though is actually the moment he runs back to the screwdriver and yells "why would I do that?!" For some reason I find that so much more exciting that him realizing he saved her and more than him running back. Just that moment of frantic thought on the brink of realizing he may be able to save someone's life and he just has to put it together. *chilllllllsssssssss*
One of my favourite moments in DW ever! It's going to be heartbreaking once River's story is completed, the Doctor is going to have to make the screwdriver, visit River once last time to give it her, and then probably bury the body since in 1:26 the body is missing from the chair. I'm going to watch all the episodes River's in in her order once it's complete!
She did sacrifice herself for the doctor in Let's Kill Hitler and gave him all her future regenerations, also she wouldn't have time to regenerate, which is why she took his place in the first time, because he would've died, too.
I've seen a LOT of Doctor Who episodes, and this has to be among The Doctor's top 5 awesome moments. There is nothing better that one can say about a bloke than that he was there for the ones he loved. Thanks to Rhumer for posting it so the skies wouldn't run dark, and to Alex Kingston for that AWESOME narration!
I cry when I hear the Doctor say "One last run". It's like he doesn't need to wait see his adventures with River, in his mind he's already been there, running with her. Does anybody else feel like they're running alongside the Doctor watching this?
this scene creates emotional impact for a character we barely know, look at how passionate the doctor becomes about saving a person who isnt important to him, but he knows will be one day. excellent work of the writer and director
Wait a minute! If the Doctor downloaded River in the computer couldn't he in theory rematerialize her in the future just after giving her the screwdriver?
this women on here gets her sonic screwdriver from the doctor, is there an episode of tht, cuz i havent watched a episode where the doctor gives her a sonic screwdriver, anybody know??
@playgurl02xx No there is no episode because River Song is a future companion of the Doctor. Meaning that in the future she meets and travles with the Doctor, spends her time in the TARDIS and then some day some how leaves him. Then she calls for the Doctor's help and gets a version of the Doctor that hasn't met her yet
@playgurl02xx maybe, but I doubt they'll actually show the sonic being handed over since they described it to us in this episode, and that the sonic has now changed. It's hard to say how they're going to do it though because we haven't even see River meet the Doctor for the first time yet.
@KendrixTermina I'm aware of the fact that she has pictures. But she should've known just by the Doctor's appearance that they shouldn't have met yet.
@SupahAsianChick One of the many reasons I disliked River Song; she automatically assumed that a Doctor she knew would answer her message when she should know that there are at least nine Doctors that she can NEVER meet.
Moffat's storylines are brilliant, but they're not consistent as well. In The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone, it's said that an image of an angel becomes an angel. But in Blink, Sally Sparrow takes a few pictures of the angels, and they were just normal picture. Same goes for Amy turning into an angel. I'm pretty sure Sally looked into an angel's eye as well but did she become an angel - no?
And River Song. I'm confused as to how she recognizes the Tenth Doctor when she meets a future incarnat
@SupahAsianChick Well, how do you think Martha and the Doc ended up stranded in the past in the first place? It was the PICTURE! The plot of the ep just started for them. Perhaps Sally didn't stare into it's eyes long enough. And about River recognizing the doc: She said she has pictures.
@SupahAsianChick river has pics of the doctors she might have looked into the tardis files and saw the tenths incarnation a drew it down then forgetting it was a previous incarnation
This is one of the best examples of how good Moffat can be, how he can write with poetry and power. He's got his (considerable) faults, but this? Is magnificent.
@KuroiNekoXIII He saved her. In the neural relay of their comms devices there would remain a digitial impression of the user's consciousness that would linger after death and the future Doctor, possibly Eleven, possibly even further in time, already lived it as Ten and so knew to modify the sonic screwdriver he would give her so that it would do the same and by storing the temporary fading digital impression he had a chance to upload her into the main computer so that she could still be 'saved'!
What i loved though about this moment was that here was the Doctor actually helping himself out at different points in the timeline but ever so subtly like 1 and 7
Oh man, you don't have the ending to the quote, about the wind standing fair and the doctor coming to call. :\
But yeah, when I first saw this episode the moment River's voiceover began and the Doctor came running back I got such chills. Absolutely amazing and such a beautiful ending. :)
This episode shows why the new season, new doctor, and new changes to the TARDIS and the screwdriver are just so very wrong. River recognized the Tenth as the future doctor, the TARDIS as how it was supposed to be, doors opening to his snap and all, and the screwdriver clearly an older and modified version of the tenth's. Yes he said the future can change, but he's also made a point that events he, personally have been involved in were fixed points in time, future him or not
River recognized the Tenth as a past doctor that was a lot younger than any of the doctors she had meet before, not a future doctor. She had only been in the tenth doctors personal future. It never said that the tenth doctors tardis and screwdriver are the 'right' ones. Its true that SM problaby intended to do a series 5 with the tenth doctor and river song but David tennant left so he had to chage it a bit, not his fault. SM is handling the change, so i'm not worried a bit.
I meant to say the doctors personal future. not just the tenths. Also we dont know what the 11th doctors screwdrivier is like, for all we know it could be the one river song had.
@mjrollins22 Ummm... Well see that doesn't mean she hasn't met the future Doctor. She might no this doctor from pictures or something or she might have thought this was a regeneration of her old doctor. Trust in Moffat, Song was his character and he should know what to do.
@mjrollins22 Library!River never gets to see the TARDIS interior, he could've built a similar screwdriver, and she has pictures of his past incarnations.
This episode made up for all of the bad (IMHO) previous episodes in the season. I knew it would be good when I saw that the writer was Steven Moffet. Russell Davies finally went back to using writers who understood the series and genre. It is destined to become a favorite among Who fans.
"I do believe that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark if he ever, for one moment, accepted it."
That is an epic quote on The Doctor.
Almost as good as The Master's, "A universe without The Doctor scarcely bares thinking about."
Or, "He's like fire and ice and rage. He's like the storm and the night at the heart of the sun. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the center of time and can see the turn of the universe, and... he's wonderful." kid in Family of Blood
This scene just gets better and better. When he jumps across that bookcase you just want to run and jump and save the universe! Chills along my back! Oh yes!
This moment encapsulates everything you need to say about Doctor Who. The narration, the music, the action, the Doctor and his companions, the running, and of course the sonic screwdriver (who says it does too much?). This, for me, is the defining moment of the new series. And the best part is that it's only going to get better.
David Tennant, what could I say that hasn't already been said? Good luck to him in the future. And maybe an anniversary episode?
I had a dream about this the other night. I dreamt that The Doctor turned up at River Song's door shortly after his regeneration, not sure of who he is.
1:45 - Greatest moment ever. That smile... and with the music, it's just so amazing! I'm so looking forward to Moffat taking over, he always seems to do happy endings. One of my fave episodes ever! 5/5
That smile at 1:45 - guh! The man is so brilliant ! Such a great scene. I'm REALLY looking forward to Moffet being head writer.. too bad it won't be David!!!!! :( *runs to fling herself in a corner and sob uncontrollably* SNIFF.
I have to watch the episodes online, and the one I watched just ended as it zoomed in on the book! I'd never heard the speech or seen the end until now, and it was brilliant! Thank you so much for posting!
This has got to be my favourite ending to any Dr Who episode EVER. Like most Moffat stories, it seems to end on a high note for everyone! This music at this part's brilliant aswell.
Then with River Song's speech at the end... it's just so epic! Love Dr Who!! (:
This scene is absolutely incredible. If you think about it, it may be the start of the Doctor's love for River, saving her life so compassionately like that.
When River Song sacrificed herself it was so sad! Then Donna loses her 'imaginary' husband and that scene was sad. Then when I saw the scene on this video and River's voice spoke, I felt excited because the Doctor will see her again! YAY!
I remember first watching this home and feeling so depressed at the episode because it was over, and I was already thinking it was one of the best episodes I'd seen.
I love the part at about 1:41 when the Doctor turns to look at the little girl and she smiles, and he smiles back, knowing everything's going to be all right.
Midnight was amazing! I don't think there's a better episode of summing up the dark side of humans. I'll ask if we can watch it in English - it sort of ties in with what we're doing. Everyone calls me the female version of Jethro!
these 2 eps and the 3 last ones are the best in the series. cos the rest of season 4 looked very child-ish like the sarah jane adventures to me so this just made me go oh my fuckin god this is awsome! 5000000000000 stars
Turn Left was unnecessary, Stolen Earth was cool, Journey's end was disappointing, which crowns these two episodes in my pov the best of series 4, with Fires of Pompeii at second place and the Sontaran two-parter at no. 3.
I found these episodes half amazing, half... The most jumped-up piece of crap I've ever watched. Computer simulation, River's character, the emotion... I only forgive Steve cause he wrote 'Blink'. But some concepts were good.
And yeah, Journey's End was dissappointing... But I loved Turn Left, it's just those little things that make it all mean 10 hundred times more.
Rivers monologue here is the kind of writing that makes Steven Moffat one thousand times a greater writer than Russell Davies. 2010 is going to be the greatest season ever... especially if David Tennant sticks around for another few seasons (and I'm sure he will, they're throwing so much money at him and he loves the role so much)
Isn't it obvious? he had his screwdriver out the whole time. He must have been using it to bring the platform up too him and then lightly touchdown on it near the bottom. lol
My favorite part though is actually the moment he runs back to the screwdriver and yells "why would I do that?!" For some reason I find that so much more exciting that him realizing he saved her and more than him running back. Just that moment of frantic thought on the brink of realizing he may be able to save someone's life and he just has to put it together. *chilllllllsssssssss*

I had a dream about this the other night. I dreamt that The Doctor turned up at River Song's door shortly after his regeneration, not sure of who he is.

1:45 - Greatest moment ever. That smile... and with the music, it's just so amazing! I'm so looking forward to Moffat taking over, he always seems to do happy endings. One of my fave episodes ever! 5/5

That smile at 1:45 - guh! The man is so brilliant ! Such a great scene. I'm REALLY looking forward to Moffet being head writer.. too bad it won't be David!!!!! :( *runs to fling herself in a corner and sob uncontrollably* SNIFF.

Oh my God!
I have to watch the episodes online, and the one I watched just ended as it zoomed in on the book! I'd never heard the speech or seen the end until now, and it was brilliant! Thank you so much for posting!

This has got to be my favourite ending to any Dr Who episode EVER. Like most Moffat stories, it seems to end on a high note for everyone! This music at this part's brilliant aswell.
Then with River Song's speech at the end... it's just so epic! Love Dr Who!! (:

This scene is absolutely incredible. If you think about it, it may be the start of the Doctor's love for River, saving her life so compassionately like that.
lordemperorchris 3 years ago 6
When this was first aired, I was thinking it was about to end. But then River's voice spoke and the Doctor ran back!
Fantastic!

Steven Moffat ftw. He's going to be the head writer for the show starting in 2010!
JoeMoron2000 3 years ago 7
should be good, He'll write 4 or 5 per series plus the christmas special from 2010
Hardy44500 3 years ago 5
When River Song sacrificed herself it was so sad! Then Donna loses her 'imaginary' husband and that scene was sad. Then when I saw the scene on this video and River's voice spoke, I felt excited because the Doctor will see her again! YAY!
thedoctorwho07 3 years ago 2
i think sometime around the specials cause she still remembered his face.
Marlu 3 years ago 5
I really hope so. Russell could have a cliffhanger of the Doctor meeting River Song, then regenerating maybe?

Tragic... indeed.

I remember first watching this home and feeling so depressed at the episode because it was over, and I was already thinking it was one of the best episodes I'd seen.
And then the Doctor runs back.
And it becomes F$%#ING BRILLIANT.
crazyrabbits 3 years ago 6
I love the part at about 1:41 when the Doctor turns to look at the little girl and she smiles, and he smiles back, knowing everything's going to be all right.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioning midnight as one of their favourite episodes.
darthnazgul 3 years ago
I love Midnight, one of my fave eps. I love the vulnerability of the doctor AND we watched 20 mins in Psychology woo.
lostinlost 3 years ago
Midnight was amazing! I don't think there's a better episode of summing up the dark side of humans. I'll ask if we can watch it in English - it sort of ties in with what we're doing. Everyone calls me the female version of Jethro!
GIANTclaaam 3 years ago
these 2 eps and the 3 last ones are the best in the series. cos the rest of season 4 looked very child-ish like the sarah jane adventures to me so this just made me go oh my fuckin god this is awsome! 5000000000000 stars
halfbreed1426 3 years ago
Turn Left was unnecessary, Stolen Earth was cool, Journey's end was disappointing, which crowns these two episodes in my pov the best of series 4, with Fires of Pompeii at second place and the Sontaran two-parter at no. 3.
viridismonasteriense 3 years ago
I found these episodes half amazing, half... The most jumped-up piece of crap I've ever watched. Computer simulation, River's character, the emotion... I only forgive Steve cause he wrote 'Blink'. But some concepts were good.
And yeah, Journey's End was dissappointing... But I loved Turn Left, it's just those little things that make it all mean 10 hundred times more.
PurpleBadger 3 years ago
best scene of series 4. Best two episodes.
Best writer of the series. Is series 5 here yet?
viridismonasteriense 3 years ago 4
Rivers monologue here is the kind of writing that makes Steven Moffat one thousand times a greater writer than Russell Davies. 2010 is going to be the greatest season ever... especially if David Tennant sticks around for another few seasons (and I'm sure he will, they're throwing so much money at him and he loves the role so much)

I'm probably ruining the moment here, but how did he survive the thousand foot drop to the core?
Mckaysunderstudy 3 years ago 2
I wondered that myself. I guess hey, he's the Doctor, he can do almost *anything*.
copperandbrick 3 years ago
Isn't it obvious? he had his screwdriver out the whole time. He must have been using it to bring the platform up too him and then lightly touchdown on it near the bottom. lol
