Because he became human, so he could hide from them. He also needed to forget who he was and believed to be a teacher named John Smith. John Smith fell in love and was happy in his new life, but the family found him and Martha told him, that he had to open the watch and remember. He had to choose and so he "killed" John Smith, became the Doctor again and had to leave the woman he loved behind.
@luedog4life They're some alien race(can't remember the name) and if they feed on a timelord they can live forever, so in kindness he tryed to hide from them by becoming human and just letting them die of old age
When I saw the picture of this video before choosing it, the one with his face, I thought he looked like Raymond in Everybody love Raymond.....yeah Ô_____-
Also like my comment if the first thing you thought when you saw Viserys Targaryen was "Hey isn't that the kid from "Human Nature" and "Family of Blood"?"
@FiercePierce86 Out of the two, I'd take the molten gold. Eternity without movement seems far more painful to me than molten metal that will almost certainly kill me.
@FiercePierce86 the first one cuz remember eternity is a very very long time like 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 years
This is the sort of scenes you don't get to see in Series 5/6. It's not Matt or Stevens fault, but I loved it when The 10th Doctor was like angry, but he didn't show it.
@Maplehoofian Fair enough... I like it 'cause while there's plenty of action and scary moments for the kids, there's typically lots of intelligent discourse on subjects such as sacrifice, love, identity and of course, a look at the nasty underbelly of British life in the early 20th century... Or something stupid like that.... Your open to your own opinion.
@cravensvt that is so true....the lesson to learn is don't piss him off unless you want to die! Him being quiet and angry is i think more terrifying then when he yells!
Two things can be gathered from this, children: 1) NEVER get on the Doctor's bad side, and 2) Be careful what you wish for, because you might just get it.
@Cotterma So? Killing them would still be kinder and it would be far more just than eternal torment. I never said he wasn't kind, I just pointed out that killing them would be kinder.
David Tennant owned the role of the Doctor Like tom Baker did. they way he would talk, play the fool and set the situation for his enemies down fall right in front of them. Bravo!
This should have started a few momments before. Tennant switching from scared geek to "the Doctor" is great acting, with his body language you can tell the traps been sprung.
He was being kind to them by hiding, Letting them chose to live or not. But they had to find him, They risked their own lives. The Doctor was going to give them mercy, But their greed was to big, And so, He gave them what they wanted. They wanted to life forever, So he granted their wish.
@kavtoM yes, but imprisoning 4 beings trying to murder him in order to become immortal and causing him to lose his love vs having to destroy(or attempt to) both his own race and his greatest enemy's in one fell swoop, several billion lives destroyed vs four imprisoned souls, forced or not, the doctor's greatest act, and his most appalling, was making himself the sole survivor of the time war, and yes, he was forced, but if he never had to do so, he never would have tortured the family of blood
@kavtoM the point still stands, double genocide is far worse then quartet eternal torture, forced or not, and the war still weighs on him, this? barley a passing thought
The fact that the Doctor can do those things is scary. Also that you don't get to see how he does them which leaves it to the imagination...
