As someone who fell off massively in the Capaldi era- I think that Heaven Sent is a good episode for the actor- but it just lacks that special sauce for what makes Doctor Who so appealing, to me personally. I tried watching it again after finding out how acclaimed it was, and I could barely finish it. All the episodes/stories in this list have that sauce- with regards to watchability- that makes them perfect introductions to this show, which Heaven Sent lacks imo

It's too bad the Capaldi series was fouled with the Woke-Dviersy Mob's ticking of their diversity 'boxes" with the abomination of a female Master, "Missy" (refuse to watch any episode with this Woke abomination trashing it). That goes for the last two "Doctors" the Woke creatures, that ugly, screeching, manic female "Doctor" (work-check!) and now that laughable gay (woke-check!), black (woke-check!) 14th doctor. They busy taking their woke wrecking ball to this fine series, just like Disney has done to Star Wars and their "woke" Snow White (utter disaster, but hey, the woke crowd doesn't seem to have the chops, the imagination or talent to create their own narratives, and go on the rampage destroying other established, venerable narratives to get "their licks in" ...despicable!)

Midnight. That episode is easily overlooked and to me had the most impact out of all of them. Veeeeery simple, packed into an almost bottle episode, and it kills it. Plus the Doctor faces something he never did or will understand and looses. Fires of Pompei deserves a mention, while the Journey's end and Stolen Earth are a fantastic sendoff to an era. Turn left is awesome (yes I'm a huge fan of series 4), but Vincent deserves to be in the top 10 for the sake of that scene in the end alone.

I was looking for a comment like this. Midnight is so underrated and overlooked as you said, and I can't understand why. It's probably the most terrifying and shocking episode of NuWho and it's also the best example that the Doctor isn't invencible, that the universe is a really vast and creepy place full of great dangers and that the human nature by itself is, most of the time, what causes our own destruction. It is so simple, yet so meaningful and at the same time mysterious.

The bit that got me in "Silence in the Library" wasn't River's death or Miss Evangelista's echo or the shadows…. It was Donna, hearing River talking about how well she knows the Doctor in his future, asking River why she doesn't know Donna. Donna, who wanted to travel with the Doctor forever. The incredible compassion in River's expression when she realizes who Donna is (which Donna does *not* miss!) turns it into one of the best bits of ominous foreshadowing I've ever seen.

Really funny you mention the day of the doctor, because I found myself thinking about it quite recently and remembering how good it was. Not (only) for the great chemistry of 10th and 11th, the fan service and flood of cameos, the production vallue, all that... for me, it's because of what it rooted for the doctor : the fact that each new regeneration is a way to process and cope with guilt. John Hurt was his criminal self that the doctor himself tried to forgot out of shame ; Eccleston was a warrior, lonely and ruthless after the time war ; tennant was the Hero, that tried to embody greatness, to be loved again and make up for his crimes... to the point of turning time lord victorious, doing everything it takes to be the winner, the one that saves the day ; Smith was the runaway, the one who tried to forget about all his dirty deeds by being childish and sweet, hiding a much darker side... i always remember the conflict between 10 ans 11 : 10 is able to count every victim of the time war, while 11 forgot this number, and 10 is horrified of that. It's also why it is so great that it is the episode introducing Capaldi as 12, because much later Moffat made sense of this old face the doctor chose : it's the face of the only person he saved from Pompei, to always remember after all this coping with guilt, that he has to remain a Doctor : someone who SAVES people, and moves onward, instead of lingering on the past. 12 is the doctor of forgiveness : he forgives people because it's the only thing that allows history to move on (for example in his great speech during the Zygon invasion/inversion... very reminescent of Hannah Arendt's theories about rememberance and forgiveness) but also who forgave to himself. People say Capaldi is the grumpy old man but he is so much more than that, and 12 brings a coherence to the whole arc of the doctor in NuWho, that's why he is my favorite.

One interesting thing I liked about River's introduction is, at first, it kind of feels like we, as an audience, are supposed to know her. The way she was introduced, with her illuminating her helmet, then saying her catchphrase, felt like it was meant to make the audience go, "OMG, she's back!" Except, none of us knew who she was, at the time, almost as if her introduction was placed in the wrong order. Like, how someone would react to Yana, or Missy, revealing they're the Master, if they didn't know who the master was.

I don't get why people hate it - The Girl Who Waited, The Impossible Astronaut, Day of the Moon, A Good Man Goes To War, The Doctor's Wife - All Brilliant Episode. I also understand the hate - with shambolic episodes like 'The Wedding of River Song', 'The Curse of the Black Spot' and 'Closing Time'. Series 4 also features a lot of times for understandable reasons. I am not a fan of the Eccleston Era but the best one is either 'The End of the World', 'The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances'.'Bad Wolf/The Parting of The Ways'. Series 7 gets a lot of hate. I understand it with episodes like 'The Bells of Saint John (SPOONHEADS?'),'The Crimson Horror' and 'Nightmare in Silver'. But The Trilogy of the 'Name of The Doctor,Day of the Doctor and The Time of the Doctor is The BEST TRILOGY. Extremis 3 parter was good, Master 3-parter was alright, Donna Noble Three-Parter was amazing but NOTHING IN COMPARISON to these three. Now Let's Talk About Series 9 (The Best Series). We got Missy and Clara and Daleks in the first two-parter, Creepy Ghosts in the second two-parter, a shockingly bad two-parter with a Viking and a Highwaywoman, Then We Get the best Zygon Story and A Questionable but Ambitious Found Footage Episode, A Beautfial Send-Off to Clara and Arguably the Best Episode After that. Hell Bent was a fitting ending and I couldn't have done it better.

The Impossible Planet / The Satan pit two parter is my personal favourite. Aside from Blink or any with the weeping angels, it's, in my opinion, the scariest episode we've had in a hot minute. It's got the perfect balance of lovecraftian horror, the typical sci-fi elements but also it's one that really stands out for me that humanises all the characters the best, not just the doctor and the companion in rose but the side characters. It's also imo the one that truly makes you think about how YOU as a viewer would react and act in that situation. Plus the introduction of the ood. Although the line "If I believe in one thing...I believe in her" may be corny as hell. The entire episode is mostly practical. Aside from the black hole and the beast and the glowing eyes of the ood. Everything is practical and it's also just a pretty episode. To say it's in the same season as Love&monsters and a season before the lazarus experiment. It's a testament to how good dr who can be when it's done mostly practical. Anyway, imma shut up rambling. The Impossible planet / The Satan pit imo is top 5 episodes of all time for Dr Who.

I believe I left a comment here not long ago but didn’t say what my actual top ten list is. Time to give it a go. Honorable Mentions include School Reunion, Vincent and the Doctor, The Day of the Doctor, The Time of the Doctor, Mummy on the Orient Express, and Human Nature/The Family of Blood. 10: A Christmas Carol 9: Turn Left 8: Tooth and Claw 7: The Girl in the Fireplace 6: Oxygen 5: The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances 4: The Impossible Planet/ The Satan Pit 3: Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways 2: Heaven Sent 1: Dalek (best episode of the whole show IMO)

Esp. the scene where the Doctor and Rory discuss the benefits (?) of Rory having "two wives" [and by implication doing them both]. That would probably never see broadcast in the US.

A criterion that people who make these lists don't consider sufficiently is replay value. Within this criterion is also the issue of favorite characters -- the characters we can't seem to get enough of. The 10 episodes listed here are good, some very good. But I don't usually seek them out for a later peek, let alone a proper re-watch. This could be true for a lot of Who fans. I would put any scene with Strax, Jenny Flint and Madam Vastra ahead of most of these episodes. Minute for minute, they are delightful. Matt Smith's Doctor is also very watchable -- I return to him often. Catherine Tate's work is also worth rewatching. And the aforementioned Capt. Jack Barrowman. Most recently rewatched by a lot of us is the excellent piece of nonsense music in the the Church on Ruby Road. The Goblin Song has been re-watched by millions of us. I realize these are not "episodes" per se, but they are favorited by some of the most loyal viewers. 2-part big episodes are impressive, but not loved, in my opinion, if love means attachment and affection.

Cannot pick just 10, my favourites are (not in order): Vincent Heaven Sent Empty child + Doctor dances Girl in the Fireplace Blink (this is number one ofc) Midnight Impossible planet + Satan pit Turn left Human nature + Family of blood Magician's apprentice + Witch's familiar Fires of Pompeii Time heist God Complex (unpopular, but was very fun for me, liked the minotaur and the concept of rooms with fears) Mummy on the Orient Express Under the lake + Before the flood (Cass was an incredible character and was superbly acted) Waters of Mars The end of time (just because of Wilfred, hes the goat) Thin ice World enough and time + Doctor falls

I think Midnight is the only one that’s missing that HAS to be on here, personally I’d have the Planet of the Ood, Dalek and maybe the God Complex as well, there were a few good series 8 eps that could have been on like Flatline and Under the Lake/Before the Flood that I really liked as well

I'm a newcomer, watched 3 or 4 of WhoCulture videos, and here are my guesses before watching this: -Even if two parters are merged, Heaven Sent which might be number 1 is separated from Face the Raven and Hell Bent. There is a jab at Hell Bent when Heaven Sent comes up -River Song episode in top 3 -No Clara episode except The Day Of The Doctor -Please don't put Blink at number 1, I love it, it's great and terrifying, and it's the highest rated episode in IMDb but please don't.

honestly only ep that consistently comes to my mind as one of the best is oxygen. I know it's underrated but it's near flawless. Big impact on the doctor the season bill and nardole, tightly packed message with claustrophobic horror good comedy that doesnt take away from the episode but rather gives you a false sense of security before the episode punches you in the gut etc you get the point. only problem I have is that the resolution to the side story of the rebellion was a little too simple. also how is the family of blood not even in honourable mentions, this is a crime.
