The moment between The Doctor picking up Not-Donna, realising, then picking up the real Donna was probably the tensest DW scene I've ever witnessed

For real, I was like “I’ve seen the trailer for the season….. I know she’s in the next episode so she can’t actually die here”……. But I didn’t 100% believe that they weren’t going to do the switcheroo and have the fake Donna be her going forward

these are the kind of episodes that show why dr who became as popular as it did, just 2 actors killing it for an entire episode with an interesting plot that slowly unravels throughout the episode, and it’s nice to see the dr completely stumped

Afraid to say that Russell T Davies posted shortly after this episode aired, Bernard cribbins only managed to film this scene before he passed, so as far as I know, he isnt in next weeks episode....so sad 😥

This was the most legitimate nightmare fuel since Midnight. And you're right, the 'silly' balanced the cosmic horror, but it still held that feeling of being caught in a nightmare. I loved it. PS - you two, and your evident love for the show? You've just got a new subscriber xx

This really struck a nerve with me! And I love horror movies! 😳😱

The Doctor really tried to put a stop to that gravity joke twice, but then joined in. I love them.

I cried at seeing wilf. It was very bitter sweet seeing him in doctor who for the last time. Its a shame that they didnt get all the scenes they wanted before he sadly passed but at least we've got this scene to say goodbye

Man, what a fantastic episode! Doctor Who is clearly going back to its roots with Russell, even the CGI, even the cheesier CGI made me feel 'at home,' if you know what I mean... It had a bit of a Midnight vibe, terrifying with that constant feeling of helplessness... The scene with Donna being left behind hurt my heart! Speaking of the heart, seeing Wilfred so affectionate and cute waiting for Donna, and that look towards the Doctor, MY GOD! I cried buckets!!

Loved the references to the Timeless Child and the Flux.

I adored this episode. Something about being trapped somewhere and having to uncover the mystery of where and why are my absolutely favorite stories.

Just like Midnight! Absolutely loved it!!

I think it's so sweet and telling that even after how long it's been, even with how things went the last time Wilf saw the Doctor, he sees something going wrong he can't explain and he immediately has Faith the Doctor can and will put it right.

I loved that this felt like a classic Doctor Donna episode. It felt (fittingly) like a time machine to a decade ago when I tuned in for every episode and it was my favorite show. No gimmicks. No cameos. Just great Doctor and Donna saving the universe.

This was such a stellar episode with great performances by Tennant and Tate, and the kind of writing and Midnight-ish elements that's been absent for quite a while. And seeing Bernard Cribbins return as Wilf was such a moment of pure joy, however brief.

I was bawling my eyes out when I saw Wilf in the episode

Sadly RTD confirmed that that last scene was the only scene Bernard Cribbins was able to film. He will be mentioned next week but this is the last time we will ever see him. Sad but I'm glad that he got to film the reunion before he died. R.I.P. ❤️❤️

I *knew* it was coming and *still* fell to pieces when Wilf showed up 😭😭😭

Unfortunately guys that ended up being Bernard Cribbins last scene with David Tennant, as he passed away shortly afterwards, am just glad that they got one last scene together. That episode was certainly wild!!.🇬🇧

Bernard Cribbins alone makes the 60th Specials worth it. Bless him.

Last time I so thoroughly enjoyed a episode was World Enough in Time/The Doctor Falls. Loved every moment and the scene where The Doctor and Donna talk about The Timeless Child/The Flux was my favorite part of the episode.

Also loved the moment when they ended up at the point where Isaac Newton discovered Mavity! Such an important moment in History.

That final scene with Wilf sadly seeing the Doctor one last time was heartbreaking. It was planned that he would have a larger part in the final, but it wasn’t to be 💔💔

I loved the cosmic horror of the episode and that they didnt just throw away the conflict of the Flux, amazing episode, but specially from all that, the best part is be able to see Wilfred happy to reunite with the Doctor again, i love this man, my favourite character of all the show 😍💕

I BROKE when the TARDIS door opened at the end and...WILF!!!!!! I cried INSTANTLY!!!!!!

i think the thing I'm most OBSESSED with from this episode is the fact that they used ACTUAL PROSTHETICS for the majority of the part where the monsters are trying to figure out how long their arms are supposed to be

This isn't a spoiler it's just to make you reduce expectations... it has been confirmed we won't see wilf again. That's all they could film. Sad... But bittersweet thar we got what we got

A great episode and a great tribute. Particularly for a generation of Brits - this is going to sound condescending - who spent a large part of their upbringing hearing Cribbens or watching him in comedy or drama or (perhaps most pertinently for this show in its original format) children's TV. It was like losing your own grandfather.

I just love seeing everyone’s reaction to the villians reveal lol, classic

A sad Fact about wilf (Bernard cribbins) Russel T Davis mentioned this was his only scene he got to film before he passed away

I loved this episode. Gave me some crazy Midnight vibes which is 100% ok with me. For a minute there, I wasn’t entirely sure that it wasn’t the same entity from Midnight back for more. Literally formless entities from the darkness beyond the edge of space…… classic Doctor Who nightmare fuel.

RTD is typically known for either campy comedy or gut-wrenching emotional drama, so it's nice to see that between this and Midnight, he can also really excel in nightmarish Lovecraftian horror

RIP Bernard. Beloved by so many for so long. ❤️

I don't know if it's intentional or not but Donna refers to the doctor snapping his fingers to summon the Tardis which was a thing later incarnations of the doctor did instead of 10, but then later says she doesn't remember anything about what the doctor did after they separated which sort of implies to me that she does but isn't saying it to protect the doctor

He did snap his fingers in that one episode, but it was part of a subplot where River tells him he can and he tries it once at the end. It’s 11 that actually uses that skill so I’d be assuming Donna doesn’t know it’s a thing he can do or if she does it was likely a once off thing he never used again.

@@colddripgaming11 did it because the finger snapping was a Moffat invention but he did it first in front of Donna so the lines makes perfect sense.

Gutted to read that this is the only scene we will see with Wilf 😢 God bless Bernard Cribbins x

I ADORED this episode. Genuine threat, genuine scary bits and no long exposition bits ruining the tension

I can say this... the 13th incarnation (well 14th cause War face, well 15th... cause 10th had vanity issue... well Jodie's Doctor) have been through a lot. I mean all of them have, but when she had that face, she found out that her origin isn't what it seems as well as being responsible for wiping half of the universe... Jeez, the Doctor really can't catch a break... also... this episode is intense and I love it~

I was genuinely worried that something could happen to Donna at the end of this episode. This episode was so much better than The Star Beast to me.

What a blast! These “specials” are a whole new level of fan service. For “3”, I’m going to do the watch along with y’all for sure! 💙

this episode honestly might be my new fav of all time. it’s at least definitely top 3.

So I wonder if they reveal in the next episode that the Toymaker has been causing all this ruckus, even the regeneration. I would assume so.

This one? kzread.info/dash/bejne/iXp72LauYJjOeJs.html

Hats off to Tennant and Tate for their outstanding performances, as well as to director Tom Kingsley for such a great episode. The only thing that worries me at this point is that the specials will in hindsight feel like the giant carrot dangled in front of fans of the Tenth Doctor, purely to get them interested in the show again. I have faith that Russell T Davies generally knows what the show needs to be successful (although his posturing over the recent depiction of Davros was an awkwardly unnecessary misstep), I just hope that it won't feel like a massive tonal shift once Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor takes over.

"Hate is loud" - so true ☹

I think while this special lacked any cameos it has a lot of continuity to the series, not just with the obvious references but little things like the Tardis translation, whistling to get the Tardis back, etc.

Okay, theory: Did anyone notice that Wild Blue Yonder had a theme of doubles, or just things in general, existing incongruously of each other? Beyond the obvious main plot point with the doppelgangers, there was also these: * The "gravity" vs. "mavity" gag (I'll get to this more in a minute, because this ties into where I think the story is going) * The moment with the doppelganger Donna not knowing if people have two knees or two knees on both legs * The "when something is removed it remains" moment * The moment about how Donna thinks two contradictory things about herself at once * And the most important one probably: the moment with the salt, superstition, and the entire thing about how "two things can be true at once" The Doctor comments near the end of the episode about his worry about the salt thing. As he said, it happened at the edge of the universe, where the rules of logic have no meaning, so it could have far reaching consequences. So, theory: this is Doctor Who setting up the future of the show as having a loose canon, where multiple things can exist at the same time, and canon can contradict itself. This has been the ethos of the show forever, and it's the thing everyone repeats: Doctor Who has no "canon". This is them setting that up, and creating an actual in-universe explanation for it. Going further into that, they are not going to have a traditional regeneration this time. I believe there's a leak that claims that this regeneration is going to be a split one between 14 and 15. I'll go one step further: this upcoming regeneration is going to set up the entire Whoiverse, by splitting off the Doctor Who world in separate canons. This ties into the thing with "gravity vs. mavity". It's basically them establishing that multiple ideas can exist at once, and be flipped between. People are complaining about how this entire part with Issac Newton felt useless, but I think it's supposed to tie into the overall gimmick they're gonna be going for here; the entire Doctor Who universe is basically gonna become a big schrodinger's cat toy-box. Going further into this, the Toy Maker is probably trying to control peoples fates, and the way that he gets defeated is by completely severing the threads, so that there's no "fates" to be controlled. Basically, they're going to have every single Doctor exists at once. I don't know how they're gonna manage that; either the show is going to become continuously multi-Doctor, which I doubt, or (the more likely option) they're going to have 15 as the Doctor on the main show, and this is going to be a set up for spin-offs with other Doctors and their companions to be endlessly possible, and not restricted by canonical restraint.

How Doctor Who made Wifreds appearance at the end a surprise even though we all knew he was gonna be there somewhere is amazing. Wondered if the salt was a reference to "The Unicorn and the Wasp" episode. Also, I think this episode would look cool animated in a Studio Ghibli style.

Not wanting to spoil anything but Wilf will now only be "referenced" in the 3rd special. RTD put out a post concerning this and if I wasn't already in tears when the end of the episode happened, Unleashed finished me off over the whole Bernard scene. Bernard, you will be sorely missed. From when he first stepped into the Tardis during the film, Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. to his re-entry with 10 and 14, he was an amazing addition to the whoniverse.

Anyone see the R2-D2 shapes in the set design in the corridor. Those robots you noticed are the entrance to Cyberdog in Camden market, London.

When my bf and I first watched this and the scene where the *not others* were growing and filling the space, I turned to my bf and said "Omg, they're Titans!"

RTD has spoken about Bernard Cribbins and that he passed shortly after filming Wild Blue Yonder, so I would temper your expectations for seeing a lot of Wilf next week.

No more Bernard Cribbens. This was his last scene, he died shortly after filming this

Episode was so much better than the last one I loved this

The thing about the "Event Horizon" ship in the film, is that it's a Gothic Rift Drive ship that 9000% tells us it's from the Warhamer 40k reality.

At first I though the alien from midnight gained human form 😆... it's nice to see a similar type of alien...also sitting in a corner learning nice one

Love your channel. Best nail biter episode ever. Yelling to the Doctor no wrong Donna. Loved Wilfred.

i loved this episode...AMAZING. Scary as hell but like you both said its scary that works with Doctor Who. I watched this yesterday but had to watch your vid about the 2nd episode. Love watching your reactions and i cannot wait to see next weeks episode. Love your vids from Ontario Canada

Loved this episode, the mimics to me reminded me of the entity out of the episode Midnight they semed to be the physical manifestation of the entity that infected Sky, Wilf returning at the end brought me and my sister to tears

Doctor left the sonic and tardis behind the door for this ep

They probably should go back to Newton or change the word in every book to gravity again.

OBSESSED with the Hollywood shirt...

Isaac Newton was pretty hot

Definitely a cross between Event Horizon and that Sandra Bullock film, Mavity! Tone wise a bit off (funny / seriously scary) but definitely a great episode (Rewatched the Paul McGann 1996 movie last night. Still think it's got the best theme tune lol)

This was some creepy shit ..loved it ❤️🔥🔥🔥

Unfortunately Wilf was supposed to be in the third part but Bernard Cribbins was only able to film this scene before he passed away. It's sad but I'm glad we at least got this as opposed to never seeing him again
