The Tardis takes off for first time - Classic Doctor Who - BBC

Fearing that his time machine will be discovered if he lets school teachers Barbara and Ian go, the Doctor sets the TARDIS on its first journey. When the TARDIS finally materialises, it is on a barren, rocky landscape, with an ominous shadow falling across it. Classic clip taken from the very first Doctor Who story, An Unearthly Child starring William Hartnell.

I need a Tardis..

Actually this wasn't the first take off of the Tardid. That belongs to the originally unaired test pilot. The take off in the pilot is different with more electronic tonalities. It's also more violent so this the actual broadcast episode must have been toned down,

@MikaXKempo The timelords didn't die until the movie, I think.

@GirlGoneWise1992 Neither am I, but I looked it up. Shouls be right, though

[GirlGoneWise1992]

@MyComicStyle So, he came back and picked her up, after he left her with David? (Sorry. I'm not familiar with the VERY early Doctor Who episodes.)

[MyComicStyle]

@MikaXKempo Obviously? Well, she's dead now, of course. This was all before the Last Great Time War. She probably died in the war.

@MikaXKempo If she is then (excuse the darkness of this thought) then she most likely died in the Last Great Time War, thus adding to the 9th & 10th doctors anguish

@kyon813 That he was a complete ass. I guess I need to see more 1st Doctor footage.

[MyWilliam1996]

@MikaXKempo yes, well it's speculated by fans that she may not be, but she's supposed to be a timelord too

[MikaXKempo]

GRANDFATHER??? Is she a time lord too?
