@@kennethpryde966 it had nothing to do with money. There were a lot of problems (including what went on with Noel Clarke and John Barrowman- sexual harassment of crew & exhibitionism). The director of the first filming block of 2 episodes including "Rose" put the crew at risk by telling them to toss a burning sofa out of a building and Eccelston complained about unsafe working conditions. Unfortunately, the senior management including Russell T. Davies didn't back him (although modern Who never used that director again.) The relationship between Eccleston and senior management never recovered. As well, his anorexia was really bad in this period (not helped by the praise he got for looking "chiseled"). If you look at the shirtless scene in Dalek, you can see his ribs. His father (with whom he was very close) was dying during this season and during Father's Day filming, he got time off to attend his dad's funeral. He and senior management agreed he'd finish the season and handle his departure without criticizing each other. Unfortunately they later undercut this agreement by saying he was "exhausted" which damaged his career & he couldn't get acting work in the UK for 3 years. In recent years, he talked more about Who and does cons and Big Finish. However he has said he'll not return as long as Russell T. Davis or Julie Gartner are involved.

My first one was Mr.McCoy - a German TV station showed his episodes, it was the first time the Doctor was on German TV. Sadly they completely effed up their whole schedule: Episodes ran at the wrong times (like I programmed my VCR to record one and it started too early and all I got was the last 5 minutes) and they got the order of some episodes wrong... Still was enjoying it. Later I got to see Tom Baker episodes and he would have been my Doctor when I was a kid in the 70s - and it totally hit me right in the nostalgia, even though it's the first time I saw it with 30 or so. There is a lot of good in the new series - you wait till you get to know Tennant. And the one after him and so forth. You'll hate the current one go each time, but the next will be so well written and acted each time and have their own personality quirks that, as hard as it is to believe, it'll get better and better. :D All the colleagues of Mr. Eccleston who follow in him occupying the role of the Doctor do a GREAT job as well and for quite some time the series will be simply amazing. :)

To try to explain Bad Wolf, it’s essentially a bootstrap paradox. The Tardis, which can exist across all time and space, inhabit Rose and through her plucked the words at random from the corporation’s name and scattered them through time and space across Rose’s timeline as hints to her, culminating in all the graffiti at the end, to prompt her to open the Tardis console so she could be flooded with the time vortex and return to the Doctor (so she could then scatter the words across time and space… etc). Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey, as we say.

Bad Wolf is a bootstrapped, self fulfilling prophecy. It makes itself happen. The message drives Rose to become Bad Wolf, write the message across time and space, so she sees the message to go become Bad Wolf to write the message and save the Doctor. It's like if you invented time travel and someone traveled to you in the machine you created, and you invented the thing by looking at the thing you already invented. This is why it's called a "bootstrap paradox"- who invented it? Apparently some things create themselves.

When Stephen Moffat takes over story and structure and plot get better, but character beats get a bit more glib and maybe a bit less deep. Personally I think Moffat is the best show runner of the modern era, but the very best episodes are the ones he penned under RTD as the show runner. YMMV.

Probably not, but one can hope.

As I understand it, Jonathan Nathen Turner was responsible for killing DW at the premature end of the classic era. He cut funding, which obviously affected production values, and then was unforgiving when viewership dropped in response using that as proof that the “British public were tired of this fanciful, make-believe programming” or some such-and swung the axe. Surely that was more calamitous than an actor, however valued, not getting on with a show’s producers. At least the season ended in a way respectful of both the show AND the actor. It’s really unfortunate CE was so embittered he wouldn’t consider returning for any of the multiple Doctor specials under different producers/directors but… (there’s one in particular I have in mind but it would Hurt to say it).

@@stormhawk3319 You know what they say about opinions… I don’t think there was anything fundamentally wrong with the Doctor or Ace. The writing, yeah. The production budget, absolutely. It was in shoddy shape but entirely fixable. Turner had an agenda, set about killing it and I gather was frustrated it took so long to die! Judging Doctor’s 6 & 7 has to be done within the increasingly sour politics (towards the franchise) at the BBC. The movie was a half-hearted hail Mary that the BBC never really invested in-if it was a huge hit they’d own it, otherwise… In the context of the success of New Who-which has had its own ups & downs but at least not from the BBC pulling support-18 years with a few gaps compares well with the full run of original Who. The most notable difference is the number of episodes: back in ‘63 there were 23 or something like that! That number has gradually, slowly gone down. New Who started out at 13 a season plus a Christmas special but after a few seasons that too began to change little by little. Consider what a season of Disney Who has? Speaking of: don’t you all think it would make better sense to “officially” refer to classic who has simply, DW, new who as Doctor Who 2, and Disney Who as Doctor Who 3? I know Disney wants/expects to rebrand DW simply as DW 1:1 restarting the series count but… blech! A lie doesn’t make the truth disappear. Maybe Disney Who would be more successful if they were more welcoming of the pre-existing fan base. It may be symbolic but it’s still meaningful.

I think the Doctor's line of just "Coward, any day" really just sums up what his whole character has been about this season. Here's this guy, fresh from the most devastating war possible where he personally had a hand in doing unthinkable, terrible things. He's tired. He's bitter. He's angry. But then he meets Rose. And they go on their little adventures and save lives and make new friends. And then, when the Doctor is once again presented with the opportunity to cause an extinction, he says no. He's changed his mind. Everyone always talks about how being with the Doctor makes them a better person. It's so rare to see the Doctor becoming a better person because of his companions. I love Tenant's doctor, and Matt Smith's doctor, I love all of them. But to me, nothing will ever quite top Eccleston's Doctor being so excited that he's finally become a coward.

One of the most interesting parts about each iteration of The Doctor is that the next one is always influenced by the previous one's actions. 9 here wasn't the version that fought in the Time War, but he's the one dealing with the direct aftermath of it, the one shaped by it, the one that carried the guilt and the rage and all the emotional baggage of it. While later Doctors will also carry that, it is a more distant memory for them vs the freshness 9 experienced. Now that we're on to 10, he is shaped by the experiences and memories of 9, the choices 9 made and Rose's influence on him.

William Hartnell played the First Doctor all those years ago. When his health was deteriorating, they came up with regeneration to keep the show going. The Tenth Doctor’s first words confirm the Doctor is the same person in a new body with a new personality and memories of his past incarnations. The Doctor has multiple regenerations which he has referred to as lives. While the Doctor is still alive, the Doctor technically still died because the Ninth Doctor was dying which triggered regeneration into a new and healed body. However, the Doctor cannot regenerate if he dies instantly. If he’s killed before regeneration then he’s dead. Furthermore, if the Doctor is killed while he’s regenerating, the process fails and the Doctor would die.

@@flaggerify oof... Sounds like you're lumping in the mere concept of regeneration with your disdain for... What? Diverse casting? Over-the-the top dramatic scripting? Listen, there's nothing wrong with regeneration, it's a good way of differentiating the time lords even more from humans, and a way to make the doctor have more of a grand, 'powerful' presence. What I agree with you on is the over dramatic, bad scripting of certain scenes and episodes. That's a writers problem, not to do with regeneration. SPOILERS And the casting? If you're refering to Jodie, I only have quarms with how it was introduced. I would have loved some more in-universe examples of regeneration into different genders or even mention of them, instead of 'oh here's one anecdote about how regeneration can be inter-sex. Oh! Would you look at that! I'm a woman! (Apart from missy, but the master was always a roulette wheel of possibilities.) (Basically, I'd have wanted inter-sex regenerations to be a known thing in the franchise for three or more seasons before they introduced Jodie.) All that to say, you're shifting the blame of bad writing and directing onto 'the concept of regeneration'

That was a very powerful reaction. I watch reactions so people can shed the tears I can't produce. I can get a bit misty-eyed but no more, sad to say. Talking of misty-eyed, though, there's a moment in A Christmas Carol, when Scrooge has changed his ways, when the narrator says: "He became as good a friend, as good a master, and as good a man, as the good old city knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough, in the good old world." and last January I saw Chris Eccleston play the part of Scrooge at the Old Vic in London. So much did he inhabit the miserly, miserable Scrooge of the main part of the play, that when he turned it was like a like a light coming on. As Chris danced down the stage throwing out gifts, I must admit I had a little tear in my eye. There's another Doctor Who alumnus playing the part this Christmas, but you're nowhere near meeting him (or her?) yet. I suspect I may be tempted to go again.

The reason for the Doctor’s regeneration doesn’t really work, in that Rose had the time vortex inside her a lot longer than the Doctor did, yet every cell in his body is dying, but that doesn’t happen to Rose? Bit of a cop out, really. It would have been better had the Emperor Dalek fired it’s gun at him, which leads to his eventual regeneration. Rose could still have the time vortex inside her, and she can still dispatch the Daleks, but it would have been neat if the Emperor Dalek had thought he’d killed the Doctor before he too had been exterminated. Have to say that Tennant’s, Smith’s and Capaldi’s regenerations have better reasons as to why they regenerate. It’s just a pity Christopher Eccleston’s Doctor didn’t go out in a better way than he did! Chris was a great Doctor but IMO David is better. He has more emotional stories during his run than Chris did (not Chris’ fault having only done one season), but David also seems to handle the humour better as well.

I love Nine’s regeneration. His farewell is so warm and comforting. Even triumphant. He found closure. After suffering alone for a long time over his actions at the end of the Time War, he chose to be a “coward” over a killer. After thinking he will never meet another Time Lord again whom he could relate to, he had a moment of connection with someone (Bad Wolf Rose) who fully understood how he, a Time Lord, experiences the world (ie. “that’s what I see!”). After being alone and thinking he didn’t deserve love and companionship, he found Rose, someone who looked into the heart of the Tardis for him and told him “I want you safe, my Doctor.” He traded his life (as his Ninth incarnation) for someone he loved and cherished and who loved and cherished him back.

Eccleston was my first Doctor and I cried and had serious emotional wreckage from his goodbye. He's my favorite. I find that with every regeneration, I resent the Doctor coming in and have to mourn the Doctor who _was_ before I can settle in and learn to love the next one. David Tennant was amazing and my second favorite. After riding for 3 series and all the specials with him... the letting go almost broke me. I was set to despise Matt Smith and I did not want to like him. For the first few episodes I huddled in my grief and then I realized he was amazing in his own way. Don't be surprised that you have to actually take time to grieve the character before moving on. And it moves on so quickly, sometimes it takes us a minute to catch up emotionally. I love this show!

When a Time Lord regenerates, their body changes right down to the ceillular level - their personality changes to some extent, but they are the same person deep down - and they do have the same memories. Some Time Lords can consciously choose the body they end up with (or even try a few on before making the final choice), but the Doctor can't. It's still possible to kill them quickly/completely enough to prevent them regenerating. If a dalek had shot the Doctor in that episode, he'd just be dead.

I thought Bad Wolf was explained. "Time Vortex Rose" sent a message to herself in the past that she knew would lead Rose down the path to becoming "Time Vortex Rose." From another perspective, Rose saw those words scattered through time and then as she was about to give up on rescuing the Doctor, she saw them again. That inspired her to believe that getting back to the Doctor was possible. She then later absorbed the Time Vortex and used her power to scatter those words to the points in time where she previously saw them, to inspire herself. As for why the words "Bad Wolf" were chosen, it could have been any phrase that Rose would have noticed, it just happened to be "Bad Wolf."

Got to love a really genuine heartfelt reaction. And also the message you take away from the show and Christopher's time on it. Quite right on that understanding, I think. I don't know him, obviously, beyond what we have all seen in his performances and interviews. But I'd like to think this is the sort of thing that would make him, or indeed any actor worth a damn, quite happy. Knowing that the performance (whatever the role may be) was so good, it moved you emotionally. And here specifically, you didn't want to lose him as your Doctor, that you'd miss seeing his face. That he knocked it out of the park so well, that not just younger audiences feel it, but that adults can too.
