If you simply look at the name "Time And Relative Dimensions In Space", what this means is that their is a dimension inside the box. its not bigger on the inside, the box is still the same size. What makes the inside bigger is that dimensions are not restricted to the dimension you have come from, thereby making it look like the inside is bigger.
Personally, what I like so much about "Doctor Who" is the LACK of technobabble. It's about an immortal time-traveling alien who bombs around the universe in a police box! Who needs hard science? Thankfully Steven Moffat seems to get this and just ignores technobabble. "Here's a thing. It does this. Everybody got that? Let's move on."
@JamesOhGoodie He's not immortal by the way. He can only regenerate 12 times. Technically he is reaching the end of his life because he's well into his 11th life. He only has 13. Plus I like the technobabble. The old series had a lot of it and that what the show is all about. Expanding your mind and thinking. A lot better than the new series where all the doctor does now is try to act like a smart arse comedian poorly.
@JBurrows15 Yes! Well said. I think the TB stories had far more depth and imagination than the new tough-talking, end-of-the-universe, wide-eyed new series. I never watch them.
BTW, I think they'll find a way around the regeneration issue -- just like The Master did in The Deadly Assassin. After all, an industry depends on it ;-).
@ArwinUndomiel I wouldn't know... I don't watch generic tv. When I was a kid, I was a fan of drwho because the main character was iconoclastic and never concerned with what was "cool". It stopped being that show c. 1978. The last time I watched sci fi was Babylon 5, and I had to be dragged kicking to watch it because I hate sci-fi where the protagonist is a handsome military captain who gets the ladies... The industry is dominated by bean counters, and they only bet on "cool" and lcd.
If you can have that exactly the same distance away, AND have it here... the large one will appear smaller. So um... how do you have 1 thing that is 2 distances away? Oh right... unicorn dust. Forgot.
My partner and i don’t try to remember accurately, however i believe that another in addition to 3rd Health professionals had it (the fourth He Chef acquired this headscarf.
I miss old weird dr.who and programming. Just look at that set. So baroque, so enchanting, using old world aesthetics to suggest tech. that is superior to shining metal and flashing lights of the starship Enterprise. It was, well, cozy, back in the day. How strange for a tv show to go from being renown for its writing to being renown for its bad writing. That's progress, I guess. Too bad no one had creative control and could kill the show before Vicky Pollard got her mits on it.
@gothamcity29 The applications would be limitless. Instead of hiring a freight company to move tons of material from one location to another by truck or train, you could fit it all in the trunk of your car and drive it there yourself. More importantly, human living space could be reduced to such small dimensions that we could return the planet to the condition it was in thousands of years ago. No more worries over the destruction of the rain forests or the elimination of natural habitats.
Of course this was promptly ignored when RTD decided to have the Titanic burst through a side of the Tardis during a Xmas special. (sigh) Continuity please?
@warlord90210 Shields shouldn't matter. The inside is in a different dimension. You can't simply crash into something in a different space. I am aware that there are any number of explanations that people can offer and one is just as good as the next to most, but I always felt that RTD played fast and loose with classic Dr Who canon to a level that annoyed me.
@me4901 How do you think they get inside the TARDIS to begin with? They cross through to the other dimension seamlessly. If a large vessel were to penetrate the side of the TARDIS like it did, the part of the vessel that was lodged into the TARDIS would translate into the dimension just the same.
@warlord90210 If you can simply force your way into the inside, then there is very little point to having it be in a different dimension. The outside is just a shell, the inside is not 'within' the outside, it couldn't fit, it is in a separate dimension. The doorway is a gateway to that other dimension that's activated when the door opens. It's like the wardrobe from Narnia or the Avenger's Infinite Mansion. If Titanic were super techy, maybe, but it's not. The inside isn't there to crash into
@me4901 It could possibly be due to the fact that the TARDIS is a relative dimension in space then the fact the shields were down could have allowed a rip in the dimensional gap between the police box itself and the TARDIS' dimension.
@me4901 It's a show where you connect X to Y to solve the major problem. Continuity is not so important, and what he just explained had nothing to do with the Titanic bursting through. Heck, the NEXT Doctor actually managed to accidentally land the TARDIS inside the TARDIS. That was kinda weird.
@Raysphinx7 No, you're not insane. The inside of the Tardis is, in a sense, "further away" because its in a different dimension than the outside. However, it seems to be "inside" the smaller police box because the Tardis doors allow access to that other dimension.
That's such a new way to think about it for me; extremely simple. I'm so used to hearing of alternate dimensions that it feels more plausible so this explanation really puts a new spin on the concept.
@BigDFunnyGuy The TARDIS has multiple console rooms. The doctor mainly uses the primary console room, but sometimes he would use the secondary console room for one reason or another.
If this was Star Trek, we'd have a quantum phased plasma resonating to the frequency of an inverse tachyon pulse. And that's what we'd get for every techy explanation, and as the solution to our episode's problem. Technobabble, when used improperly, can be a cheap way out of a situation. It should never have to be that.
One of the things I love about Dr Who is the way they handle tech. It's either 1. a lot of nonsense that we're not meant to understand, because it's meant to sound alien for effect 2. Like this, simplified in such a way that the concept is easy to grasp (if you don't think about it too much) or 3. When the Doc just doesn't bother explaining ie. "This is my timey wimey detector. It goes ding when there's stuff."
Out of all of the years that I've seen Dr.who, since the '80's i completely forgot that he explained how the tardis is bigger on the inside than the outside.
So, the doors to the TARDIS facade are similar to a wormhole event horizon? That means the stargate is a knock-off. Anyway, I was just gonna comment how much Jean-Luc Picard sounds like this Doctor. Wait a minute...
So the story is, that the inside of the Tardis is ectually farther away, and inside the telephoneboot at the same time. Nice fiction! Could be explained a litle more, tough.
4th Doctor and Leela, along with K-9 one of the best TARDIS teams. Talons of Weng-Chiang, Robots of Death, Horror of Fang Rock, three absolute classics.
Got to this while watching all 770 Doctor Who episodes in order. That task affected my sanity just enough so that this not only made sense, but made enough sense that I seriously thought about trying it.
@SchleppyLundo I know the feeling, brother. I still cant get through most of One and Two's episodes because of the sodding slideshow. Goddamn BBC Purge.
But I do have the whole series from 1963-present. And I've seen them all.
So: how does this explanation fit with the First Doctor's explanation to Ian, in "An Unearthly Child," where he compares the outside of the TARDIS to a broadcast image of a big building on a small television set?
(One of the best things about "Doctor Who:" it sparks such wonderful questions).
Suppose the tardis entrance marked a point along a long portion of space that wrapped around back to itself, almost like a wormhole theory. Have the 2 endpoints overlap and place the inside of the tardis on that overlap. Now the inside is very far away, while it's right there.
Even Dr Who can't get away with such a ridiculous explanation as to why the Tardis is bigger on the inside than out. The fact is, it's impossible. So no point in explaining it. The inside of the Tardis is a studio set. LOL.
@sirtinycreep Actually, if you did manage to create another dimention in space and time. you could get away with it, But first i think we need to figure out time travel first. Also the explaination that he gives is actually pretty good, the dimention in space wouldn't exactly be inside the actual police call box. Bear in mind Dr who is sci fi.
There was a similar scene in "Father Ted" Ted was trying to convince Father Doulgal that the cows off in the distance were large, even though the plastic cow he was holding was small. The one scene always reminds me of the other.
It sounds a lot like the holodeck on Star Trek. How you can stay in that exact same room, basically be walking in place, yet to your point of view, you are walking down a path in the woods, or down a sidewalk in a city in the 1940s, or on some alien planet somewhere out in space. You perceive you are moving, things are getting further away, or closer, but in reality you are standing in the same spot before you started, in the same room, relative to the same location to your entrance to the room.
the energy required to maintain the relative spacial ratio equitions would be mind boggling so would the mathmatics required to formulate the dimensions and the application of the mathmatics but, then again the tardis is fueled by the nucleus of a black hole so such a thing could be possible for an alien mind but, not a human one.
Russel T Gayvis could have never have written dialogue like this. He was far too concerned with turning Doctor Who into a dumbed down version of hollyoaks by means of a homosexual, political left wing agenda. Yes Russel, the exploits of council estate retards in sci-fi is far more entertaining than this. Do keep up the good work won't you love.
@billiepipersteeth Go Away. is a imperative. It has an implied subject and is ended with a period. You weren't asking, you were telling. ' Would you please go away' is a request. But I don't expect that sort of sophistication from people who still use 'gay' as an insult and speak of 'homosexual agendas'. So I waive that point. I do not press it. I look over it.
@billiepipersteeth Ah yes, the "you must be gay" argument to people who point out your immaturity. Ever the popular argument among 12-14 year olds, or those of that mentality.
01:17: "That's silly!" love it! Love her, love him, love the show. Great stuff. I'm off to build one with a tea chest and a matchbox. Next stop: Gallifrey.
what if you get stuck between the dimensions somehow? you'd end up in the void! O.o

I think time lord science could help men of small dimensions if you know what I mean !

@flyingscience And women of small dimensions too... We are talking here about whose box is bigger. ;)

makes sense, so if the boxes are that far apart, how do we make the large box fit inside the small one.

Even Dr Who can't get away with such a ridiculous explanation as to why the Tardis is bigger on the inside than out. The fact is, it's impossible. So no point in explaining it. The inside of the Tardis is a studio set. LOL.

@sirtinycreep Actually, if you did manage to create another dimention in space and time. you could get away with it, But first i think we need to figure out time travel first. Also the explaination that he gives is actually pretty good, the dimention in space wouldn't exactly be inside the actual police call box. Bear in mind Dr who is sci fi.

I like the secondary control room. It has a nice H.G. Wells, Verne look to it.

There was a similar scene in "Father Ted" Ted was trying to convince Father Doulgal that the cows off in the distance were large, even though the plastic cow he was holding was small. The one scene always reminds me of the other.
LOL

It sounds a lot like the holodeck on Star Trek. How you can stay in that exact same room, basically be walking in place, yet to your point of view, you are walking down a path in the woods, or down a sidewalk in a city in the 1940s, or on some alien planet somewhere out in space. You perceive you are moving, things are getting further away, or closer, but in reality you are standing in the same spot before you started, in the same room, relative to the same location to your entrance to the room.

the energy required to maintain the relative spacial ratio equitions would be mind boggling so would the mathmatics required to formulate the dimensions and the application of the mathmatics but, then again the tardis is fueled by the nucleus of a black hole so such a thing could be possible for an alien mind but, not a human one.

@doctorw2 The Eye of Harmony is an infinite source of power. It could easily generate enough power to maintain the relative dimensions.

Russel T Gayvis could have never have written dialogue like this. He was far too concerned with turning Doctor Who into a dumbed down version of hollyoaks by means of a homosexual, political left wing agenda. Yes Russel, the exploits of council estate retards in sci-fi is far more entertaining than this. Do keep up the good work won't you love.

@billiepipersteeth While I'm not a fan of RTD, keep in mind
most people stop using 'gay' as an insult at the age of 12.
And there is by far much more 'left wing agenda" in classic Dr Who than 'right wing agenda'

@billiepipersteeth Now there an erudite and educated statement if ever I heard one.
Chrisfs59 1 year ago
@Chrisfs59 Well if you were either erudite or educated you would be aware that "Go away" is a request, not a statement.
billiepipersteeth 1 year ago
@billiepipersteeth Go Away. is a imperative. It has an implied subject and is ended with a period. You weren't asking, you were telling. ' Would you please go away' is a request. But I don't expect that sort of sophistication from people who still use 'gay' as an insult and speak of 'homosexual agendas'. So I waive that point. I do not press it. I look over it.
Chrisfs59 1 year ago
@Chrisfs59 Yep you're right - it was an order. Now obey.

I don't take orders from people concerned with 'homosexual agendas' I laugh at them until I'm done.

@billiepipersteeth Ah yes, the "you must be gay" argument to people who point out your immaturity. Ever the popular argument among 12-14 year olds, or those of that mentality.
