every time I think about this song in my head while not actually listening to it I always mix up "intellect and romance over brute force and cynicism" to be "intellect and brute force over romance and cynicism"... that would be an interesting twist on the show if they did it that way, wouldn't it?
Does anyone have a transcript of the opening? Some of the lyrics are kinda hard to hear, esp. the puppet's parts, and I'd love to know what they are saying. :-( Thanks!
@ScottishConanGuygirl not 100% true. the doctor's species (Time Lords) can die if there was too much damage done to the body or even during the regeneration process if theres been a complication of sorts (s2ep0 : The Christmas Invasion).
the episodes "The End of Time: Part One" + "The End of Time: Part Two" sub plot is about him dieing expressing that regenerating is similar to dieing... "He will knock 4 times then you will die." -- kinda pulls on your heart strings at the end of part 2.
It feels right watching it on Mals channel. I would really like to see what else is going on in this video but the girl on the left is too distracting! In my pants :P
Tom Baker is my favorite actor to play the Doctor. Matt Smith should have gave Craig Ferguson a bag of jelly babies & a Tom Baker scarf. The girl on the left is beautiful.
Even though I already happened to have accidentally seen the leaked version it's exciting to see this on the show ... well technically I'm still watching it on youtube but you know what i mean :D Thanks as always Mal
@RiverSingsForMe calm! malinky is doing you a favour and it is up to them and the almighty youtube gods when the video goes up. I you want to watch it so bad watch it on tv or something.
Ok, who hasn't heard of Dr. Who (well what geek hasn't heard of him)? I used to watch Dr. Who on PBS when I was in elementary school back in the 70's. That show and Monty Python totally made me feel like I knew stuff other kids didn't know; that I was somehow better than them.
I'm with you @bobina05 -- Doctor Who (Tom Baker = My Doctor) & Python on PBS, and then - as I am Canadian - The Prisoner, Man from U.N.C.L.E., The Avengers and Ger Smart on the CBC and other Canucky channels (and the original Star Trek, but that's a gimme). :D It totally makes being the geek in class worh it because you just /know/ the other kids were missing out on something awesome. ; )
Hardcore PBSer here, all the way back to when it was NET. Anybody here old enough to remember What's New? I was bred for nerdness almost from the cradle. Don't forget Cosmos, and I was even into I, CLAVDIVS.

I was going to make a joke saying that the one person who disliked it was probably Adric, but that kind of joke gets real old real bloody quick.
Also, no one pays atention to Adric anyway.

Watching this on a Monday morning seems wrong, but a great way to start the week!
Who was *your* first Doctor? Jon Pertwee was mine, and I cried at the end of Planet of The Spiders. Tom Baker was a worthy replacement, though.
Sad to see Nicholas Courtney (The Brigadier) died last week. He was one of my favourite recurring characters.
