Then it changed into a cozier, almost homey design for the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) and a darker, more steampunk design for[...]

The second seems to be the Eleventh Doctor's (Matt Smith) sonic screwdriver, which is bigger, clunkier, and flashier Both sonics can extend – very phallic and Freudian move. "Doctor Who": BBC The Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, and Thirteenth Doctors' sonic screwdrivers have been discontinued, which happens whenever a new Doctor comes along in the series, but fans still want[...]

It was Matt Smith's first season as the Eleventh Doctor It was Karen Gillan's first season as a companion and both her and Smith's first starring roles leading a TV series It launched their careers, made them household names in the U.K., and helped them get to where they are now This was also one[...]

if the BBC can repeat themselves, so can we.

That's Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi, Jodie Whittaker – and back to Tennent again You might think this was just another showy set of clips of the show's biggest gimmick, but they reveal something much deeper about the show, something spiritual and beautiful that makes it all worthwhile.

it's also Moffat's best and most thematically consistent season. "Doctor Who Series 9" key art, BBC Unlike Doctor Who Series 6, Moffat's second season as showrunner, and Matt Smith's second season as The Doctor, Series 9 feels more confident and less frantic in trying to show off crazy ideas with wild abandon It's also less overstuffed and[...]

This was Steven Moffat's second season as showrunner, with Matt Smith, Karen Gillen & Arthur Darvill as the Eleventh Doctor and companions You could say it was in this season that the show's flaws first started manifesting, the seams starting to show.

For this go-around, Gatwa addresses the double pressure that comes from being the first Black man to take on the role, how Vaies and previous Doctors have been a help with the process, and how he drunkenly spiled his casting to Matt Smith. Image: BBC Aside from just how long the series has run when you combine[...]

The shift from the Tenth Doctor's theme to a more playful, jaunty sound to introduce the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) is seamless Akinola created a spy movie pastiche for "Spyfall" where the Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) infiltrates an evil tech billionaire's (Sir Lenny Henry) casino party Gold once again created a classical choral score for "The[...]

Doctor Who stories set in the future tend to be about class conflict, the evils of capitalism & fascism - part of British Sci-Fi tradition.

That was the most poignant and unique moment of the Chris Chibnall era that should have been built upon to become a defining moment instead of forgotten later, potential introduced, then wasted. "Doctor Who" still, BBC Then there's the moment The Doctor (Matt Smith) got to meet his one true love, the TARDIS, in the form of[...]

All of Moffat's worst instincts and excesses are in this season, and it was only held together by Matt Smith's mix of zaniness and desperation as he juggles several timey wimey contrivances all the way to the season's end Moffat throws in all sorts of crazy high concepts throughout the season: the Silence, the Life[...]

The Tenth's (David Tennant) first big moment in action was a refinement of the character into a gleeful swashbuckler that helped establish Tennant as the most popular Doctor of the modern era.

They are the Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) kissing Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman) for the first time, Missy (Michelle Gomez) kissing the Twelfth Doctor (Peter Capaldi) for the first time, and River Song (Alex Kingston) kissing the Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) for the first time. So the Tenth Doctor kissing Martha leaves traces of his DNA on[...]

Davies would kill Kylie Minogue for Christmas, all to make everyone sad. Steven Moffat's Many Christmas Carols Moffat's Christmas specials all drew on obvious literary and movie sources: the Eleventh Doctor's (Matt Smith) first special was even directly called "A Christmas Carol," where the Doctor had to turn the heart of a Science Fiction version of Scrooge[...]

There's the moment the Tenth Doctor (Matt Smith) lost Amy Pond (Karen Gillen) and Rory (Arthur Darvill) – though it's obvious he (and showrunner Steven Moffat) cared more about Amy There's the Eleventh Doctor's (Peter Capaldi) parting from Clara (Jenna Coleman) at the end of their mutually destructive co-dependent relationship, where Moffat explored how flawed[...]

They've written millions of words dissecting The Sopranos and talk about the social issues, and urban blight in The Wire; they swoon unironically about incest and misogyny in House of the Dragons, how sexy they think murderous incest f***boi Prince Daemon (Matt Smith) is as he seduces and marries his niece while ignoring how Yellowstone[...]

Moffat stepped in and wrote Matt Smith's first lines as the 10th Doctor after Tennant finished Chibnall stepped in and wrote Jodie Whittaker's first line after Peter Capaldi completed his regeneration scene Thus, Tennant's first lines were written by Davies and shot months after Whittaker left the set Both were shot with the TARDIS on[...]
