How Many Children Were On Galifrey | The Day Of The Doctor | Doctor Who

The worst part is how 11 tells 10 that he wouldn't want to know where he is at that time that 4.8 billion dead children is a memory he has put aside. It's as if 11 is telling 10 that his future is that hopeless that that memory is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.

You can really hear the Doctor's personality coming through with the way he says "the way you two look at me, what is that?"
Phenomenal acting all around.

it's absolutely horrific to look at this and then see what has become of Dr Who just a decade later. This scene is full to the brim with pathos and some of the most excellent acting in the new series.

I wonder how the calculations on the sonic still going, giving the fact that the sonic was destroyed in the first episode of the 11th doctor

"For once I'd like to know where I'm going"

"No you really wouldn't"

I can agree. If bad things happen in my own future and I can't change it then I think knowing about it would be even more horrible.

Three of the Doctor being locked in an unlocked room is when Doctor Who makes itself unique to other TV shows, or rather, any entertainment out there.

You know…I just realized how much better The Moment would have been if it were Donna…because if her connection with the Doctor…I know everyone wanted rose to come back, but I think having the Doctor’s best friend be the Moment would have been so much better!

Beautiful metaphor for the Doctor ... Same software, different case

"We are so clever"
DM: Roll higher than 3 for "ego boosting" buff
Doctor: Roll nat 1

I’m very happy the doctors found a solution

Their younger self had to tell them how to break out of an unlocked door. lol
In regular cases it’s how “smart” people outthink themselves.

Never been big on Matt Smith's Doctor but his performance in this scene does bring out his unique strengths

The Doctor did the right thing the first time.

"We are so clever" followed by "it was unlocked" is ridiculously hilarious 🤣

11: "What would be the point?"
10: "2.47 billion"
I see what you did there Moffat

This fantastic scene makes me even angrier about how awful the Whittaker era was. Or the newest seasons.

I fucking hate this scene, it’s like Helen Lovejoy from the Simpsons takes over the writing

Teenage you:where can you be now that you forget something like that?

Adult you :spoilers

for once I'd actually like to know where I'm going.

Adult you: No You actually Wouldn't!

This was such a peak Who moment

10s screwdriver blew up shortly after he regenerated into 11, that is NOT the same screwdriver lol

I love the idea that for 400 years this subroutine has been going on, taking up just a small but noticeable percentage of the screwdriver’s processing power. For years, although they forgot why, the doctors have had slightly less than 100% processing power to work with. Just because they tried to disintegrate an unlocked door.

it sucks that galifrey was and then destroyed again by the master so all of that effort of saving his people was all for nothing

Its been a while since ive watched this fully, but i come back to the clips.

I just had a thought though... Where did Clara come from?

All of this has been ret-conned out of existence with Timeless Children and New Who.

In this scene, the Moment planted the seeds for the solution to the burning of Gallifrey.

“Same software, different case. Same software, different face.” As for the sonic, so for the Doctor.

Back when doctor who was brilliant now its been ruined badly il always watch the old ones not some gay black doctor an abomination of a show now

The Doctors: "we're so incredibly clever for figuring out how to destroy this door!!!"🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Clara: "the door's unlocked. Didn't you try that???"
The Doctors: 🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂😬😬😬😳😳😳

I can just hear the conscience of the TARDIS crying from this. 2.47 billion. Forgotten. Even in the episode, The Doctors' Wife.
"A valley of half-eaten TARDIS's. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"I'm thinking that all my sisters are dead. They were devoured, and we're looking at their corpses."
"Ah. Sorry. No, I wasn't thinking that."
He forgot so much, he lost sight of himself and the sacrifices he made. He's not learning from it. He's erasing it from his memory.
The value that the TARDIS misses of him is his empathy. Think of how much blood was on her metaphorical hands in the Time War. Think of how much she's lost.

This is peak Dr. Who writing

Tennant's glare when Smith said what's the point gave me shivers

As well as this special was written, the 11th Doctor being more upset over knowing he falls on Tenzalore than how many children he burned that day just doesn't make sense to me. Still love this scene though.

didn't 11's sonic screwdriver short out in the eleventh hour and was given a new sonic? or was the new sonic just a copy all the way down to the permanent background processes?

*Gallifrey

That is what happens when you have book sense but no common sense😒 Trying the door should've been the first thought🙄

Doctor who.

Matt was always such a master at portraying 11's repressed anger and rage.

To be fair, 11 was pretty deeply scarred by the loss of Amy and Rory and he’d had to deal with the deaths of two versions of Clara (and he’d seen his tomb)

Different case, different face

I wonder what 11 meant when he said ‘no you really wouldn’t’
Is he talking about River and Amy, I wonder?

To be fair they are three times the same person, so it's not surprise that none of them checked if the door was opened.

Sometimes i really wish capaldis doctor could have met the others like 10th though I do think they made the right decision by not doing that.

i dont like the war doctor as a concept i think 8 should have fought the timewar but this was just brillant and john hurt was amazing

A very famous escape artist once made a bet he could escape the most secure prison with just his street clothes and so someone took him up on that bet.

He took off his belt and used a tool built into it but couldnt get the lock to click and after I think a week he lost his mind and gave up.

Once he gave up, the people came to let him out and simply pushed the door open. It was unlocked

Easily my favorite doctor who scene. Its just so brilliant, and each actor is completely believable as their incarnation of the doctor, despite the fact that the youngest actor is playing the oldest incarnation, and the oldest actor is playing the youngest.

That final moment is probably the most D&D thing I have ever seen in a show in my life
