8 years later, the "revisit old faces" line means a lot more with david tenant returning for a few episodes as the doctor.

[LateNightHalo]

I love how the patterns on the wall imply that this museum is itself the Curator’s Tardis.

[tzvikrasner]

God. Even as an outsider to the series, it's easy for me to see why Baker held the role for as long as he did. That man is one hell of an actor.

[sabata]

"in years to come, you might find yourself revisiting a few, but just the old favorites." Good ol' Tom, foreshadowing.

[ObviouslyKieran]

The Doctor's congratulating themselves is the most Doctor Who thing ever.

[combathoney]

What a fantastic performance by Tom. Only he could walk back into the role after 33 years away and just nail every line and look and mannerism.

[mynameisvolatile]

"You know I really think you might" never had more chills in my life

[mischievousone]

Damn near half a century later and the man still pisses charisma and presence. Long Live Tom Baker

[cheshirekat]

It's amazing that Tom Baker never lost his voice. It's so clear and strong, even today.

[robertbrown]

Tom Baker's introduction in this scene is absolutely brilliantly executed. The whole tone shifts as soon as we hear his voice. It's as if a living legend has walked into the scene.

[auguromen]

Eleven: "I never forget a face."

Four: "I know you don't. And in years to come, you might find yourself ... revisiting a few ... but just *the old favorites*, eh?"

Ten, circa October 2022: *WHAT*

[preciousreyes]

*”I don’t wanna go.”*

“He always says that.”

[ryancoulter]

When he says “congratulations” and they shake hands you KNOW that was Tom to Matt not Doctor to Doctor. Matt looked positively giddy during that brief moment.

With David Tennant’s return as the 14th Doctor, the line “you’ll find yourself revisiting a few but just the old favourites” has come into fruition.

[tyguya]

“Revisiting a few but just the old favorites” that line certainly takes on new meaning.

[arelmia]

"And in years to come, you might find yourself revisiting a few [face] but just… the old favorites"
After all these years… You were right, Tom. You were right

[BammerD]

10th Doctor: "Good to know my future is in safe hands."

A nice call back to when the 1st Doctor said that to the 5th Doctor in "The Five Doctors."

[Shinigami]

There's a strange urgency in Tom Bakers eyes, at least there is to me. It makes me feel as if that's the doctor on his well and true final life, near the very end and he simply wanted to see the joy of one of his youthful selves just one last time.

[jbbresers]

"I could retire and be the curator of this place"
"You know I really think you might"
We've now seen a doctor who revisited an old face retire.

[mikawhofan]

look at Matt trying so hard not to let out his inner fan boy
