A telesnap redraw. I wish the first episode of Evil Of The Daleks were found, so we could see the 2nd Doctor moping around in a colourful 60's café (once colourised) and Jamie being severely out of place among people his age.
One thing New Who doesn't really have that Old Who did was the thing where everyone (audience included) thinks the Doctor is this amazing genius from space with the best spaceship of all time, and then someone else from Gallilfrey shows up and goes "Oh, it's you. Did you get expelled from our university or did you just fail your degree? Is THAT what you're driving around the universe in? How does that thing even still work? And why are you dressed like that?"
re-watching a few episodes of doctor who and it always amuses me how companions are like “oh talking to a machine now aren’t I” when the Doctor isn’t around and they try to get the Tardis to help (like Martha in Human Nature for example)
and I’m like dude… i pat my car when she works nicely, i scold my phone when it’s not working properly and i argue with my computer on a daily basis
my brother in christ me and the Tardis would be bffs in under a day. I would be talking to her more than i would talk to the doctor
like I wouldn’t even need the traveling just me and the Tardis gossiping like old ladies, drinking tea and making fun of the Doctor.
something to be said about how the doctor and the tardis have integrated over time to form one cohesive unit. it’s the type of mutualism that slowly binds organisms together, making them as synonymous and inseparable as the bee orchid and its pollinators. even when the tenth doctor wiped his memory in human nature, he dreamed about her. sure, they’ve spent time apart, but they spend it looking for each other. they’re individuals, but they instinctually collaborate to achieve the same purpose. a show about a sad guy getting into a physically and psychologically codependent relationship with his car has never been this good
