Can we please get Paul McGann his own series even if it’s for just a miniseries? He deserves it. Never complains, treats fans like gold, a total class act.

[justagamersquad]

It’s good to see Paul McGann getting the recognition he deserves as the doctor

[benwasserman]

Can we appreciate the fact that Peter Davison has physically starred alongside eight other Doctors in his lifetime. That must be a record amongst Doctor actors.

[arcaileonadrailmo]

God give Paul McGann a series even for 1 season love that man

"I'm a manifestation of our consciousness, I can wear what I like."

Forget Twelve, Eight was 100% Rebel Time Lord.

[benbastianiartmusic]

The Doctors being older and greyer with hoarser voices actually makes them very elegant. And the robes are awesome!

[PsychoGemini]

Paul being here is the best part. Him arguing with Seven makes total sense given how that regeneration played out.

[kevinborgan]

Paul McGann deserves a season as the Doctor.

[Griwhoolda]

I love the way Paul McGann says, "Existence." Heck, I love the way he says *anything.*

[eetu.pennanen]

Bring Paul McGann back for his own spin-off show please! He looks the part still and is so good in the role, always has been! The 8th Doctor deserves his own tv era and a Disney+ series would be perfect for that! He was denied a show in 1996, 2005 and even in 2013 when the War Doctor replaced him in the 50th. He could finally have his own tv episodes, I would definitely watch it and I'm sure many others would as well!

[jeffreycruz]

“From the PAAAST.” Love how he says that

[stephenmurphy]

The Power Of The Doctor was true fan service (to the classic era)! 🙌

Also it’s Colin and Sylvester’s first time appearing onscreen in the modern series. Peter D had already appeared in the Children In Need mini episode of Time Crash (2007) and Paul had already appeared in the mini episode The Night Of The Doctor (2013).

[ElliotOlson]

Say what you want about Chibnall, but I love how he was able to bring back the classic doctor actors, without de-aging them and in a way that makes sense in the canon

[williamchapple]

My jaw was firmly on the floor for this whole scene, it was so nice for a genuine surprise like this in the special

[nickloschen]

It was truly amazing seeing David Bradley back as the first doctor along with Colin, Peter, Sylvester, and Paul! 'm so glad Peter Davison came back. I know he wasn't the biggest supporter of Jodie's casting but I was so happy to see him back in his iconic outfit and reunite with Janet as Tegan. Along with Sylvester in his iconic question mark sweater vest reunited with Sophie as Ace.

[zachgreenninja]

Thank god Colin and Paul got another chance to be on the show. I feel like they both didn’t have enough appearance.

[dkleener]

0:53 "This is supposed to be handled over! You can't ruin it for the next one!"

Considering that Colin Baker refused to come back for the 6th Doctor's regeneration scene, this is ironic.

[AndrewHsieh]

That was one of the best scenes in the special, having Jodie Whittaker meet several of her predecessors: Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, David Bradley, *and* Paul McGann. A real love letter for the fans!

[jaytender]

It was so great to see the 13th Doctor interact with other incarnations of her past apart of the Fugitive! Unfortunately it only happened in her last episode 😞

[RedfordWho]

This felt more like a 60th annivery special than eny of the actual 60th anniversary specials. Don’t get me wrong, absolutely love them, but they felt more like a victory lap of series 4 than a celebration of the entire programme itself.
