I like how Adric explained it to Nyssa.
-- How is it bigger on the inside than on the outside?
-- It's dimensionally transcendental.
-- Dimensionally transcendental? What does that mean?
-- It means it's bigger on the inside than on the outside.

No. The psychic paper does NOT show the target what the doctor wants them to see.
The paper shows them what they would need to see to let the doctor do what they want to do. The running gag in new who is that this is often very different than what the doctor would expect and the doctor usually doesn't find out what it shows until the other person actually told them what it says

Ruby being adopted is pretty standard for new Who. Most main companions have lost at least one parent: Rose: Father died, Martha: father walked out, Donna: father died, Amy: parents died and adopted, Clara: mother died, Bill: mother died and adopted, Ryan: mother died, father walked out and adoptive grandmother died. I think Yaz is the only one with both parents alive and living together.

I always thought it didn't work on wood because TARDISes were grown, not made, and the TARDIS is plant or tree-like. And because the TARDIS usually is used to craft a sonic its sort of a defense mechanism. Anyhow, that's my little headcanon.

...also we can now have a way for the "The Valeyard" and "The Curator" to appear via the 14th.

Anyone see Ncuti Gatwa on Match Of The Day? The opening theme song was playing and it kept being interrupted by the TARDIS taking us through different eras of MOTD. Then it took us to a version where Ncuti's Doctor was ON the show opposite Alan Shearer (the presenter).

It SERIOUSLY adds weight to Doctor Who being a TV show within itself

We did not first meet Kate Lethbridge-Stewart in 2012, because The Power of Three was not her first appearance. The character first appeared, along with her father played by Nicholas Courtney, Lis Sladen as Sarah Jane and Debbie Watling as Victoria, in the video spinoff Downtime in 1995. At the time, she was played by Beverly Cressman, but she was a lot younger.

This is amazing - in 15 minutes you succesfully recapped 60 years. It is so hard to summarize a big thing and include just what people need to know to have a good time - and not make it boring... and you did this perfectly.

I'm always annoyed when people say "The Doctor Never went back for Susan" without specifying "on TV." There have been a series of 8th Doctor stories on audio with Carol Ann Ford reprising her role as Susan. Leaving out even a wink and a nod to the expanded universe is kinda, to me anyway, craping on the work of the actor who continues to play the role from time to time.

In classic era Doctor Who UNIT stood for 'United Nations Intelligence Taskforce', however this was changed to 'Unified Intelligence Taskforce' as the United Nations did not want the fictional agency to be associated with the UN.

[StephenLeGresley]

I'm still gonna call it Series 14. I just don't think I can get used to "Season 1" lol. I respect what anyone else chooses but for me it's 14.

Great Video guys :) one week and counting.

I got to see the Tardis in person at Disneyland California yesterday they have a cool set up right at the front gates

The exterior can and has changed in the past once or twice. The chameleon circuit was fixed but the police box became iconic.

[friendlyotaku]

Custard Cream slander?! I'm reporting you to the council!

[joannaingram]

what about Ace she was in The Giggle too

[EwanDavidson-xsfg]

You mention Mrs Flood but not Mrs Merrydew played by Susan Twist.

[millennialmakes]

I had not made the connection between the doctor using salt and all of the other events in the specials. That is really brilliant. Also “Mavity”

[TheMilkman-urip]

Why did you say RIGHT around the corner, and show Donna turning LEFT?

[WayneFawcett-vh]

You keep getting this wrong, the Doctor DID come back so Susan, in the 5 Doctors.

[sarahclapp]

You didn't mention the most important person the doctors wife River Song.
