I agree with the others that the Church on Ruby road would be a good one to watch next. You'll get the answer to the flashback sequence, and an introduction to Ruby's mum and grandma. The episode numbering is so weird. Because the Christmas special is technically outside of season 1, it's sometimes considered episode zero. Interestingly on Disney+ they changed the Church on Ruby Road from a special to Season 1 Episode 1, which really confused everyone haha. Some people consider this series 14, but Disney and the BBC are calling it season 1, then the episodes are numbered differently. 😂😂😂. Oh all of that and I forgot to say, Great Reaction!! Subscribed and looking forward to the next one.

welcome to doctor who:D it's definitely a fun ride and you never know what you're gonna get :DD i personally started at series 1 (2005) and it's a good point to start after this series :) all doctors are a bit different, but they do have some core traits that stay the same, like wanting to help others :)

Thank you, im expecting a welcome basket to come in yes? Hahaha i am definitely watching from 2005 when i finish this season 😝

Welcome - it's gonna be a bit of a ride! As peope have suggested watching the Church on Ruby Road is the thing to do next to get a good starting point - hopefully after the finale you'll go back to the 2005 series and catch up from "Rose". (Best NOT watch the 60th anniversary specials (ie 1-3) at this point). Ruby Road is special 4 on Disney+ i believe.

@@AnotherReactionChannel_ Really looking forward to it !

You should definitely watch the Christmas special ‘The Church on Ruby Road’ which came right before this episode and shows how Ruby and the Doctor met. Besides that the best place to start is the 2005 reboot of the show with the 9th Doctor! The show is always changing. Not just the doctor and companion but also the writers, and directors, even the showrunners, so while there are a few meh episodes along the way, you’ll definitely be hooked by the end of the first series with the 9th Doctor and most fans agree it’s the best jumping on point :)

Oh i just checked eho the 9th doctor is and i recognize him. I might watch that one after 14 😁 i live that they change the writers also, so basically every doctor is different all the time. They dont try to keep the same personality, they are unique everytime they change the actor?

⁠​⁠​⁠@@AnotherReactionChannel_Yeah each Doctor has their own personality but they are still the same character with the same memories so some things stay the same. The show is mostly episodic so each episode is a new story, new location / new time period, but there are also overarching stories each season.

Please watch “Church On Ruby Road”. It comes right before this episode and is the best starting point for this season.

In answer to your question and I'll try to explain without spoiling too much Ncuti Gatwa is the 15th incarnation of the Doctor and the first black actor to play the Doctor and is a Time Lord from a planet called Gallifrey as explained in the episode whenever the Doctor is killed or gets fatally injured or reaches old age his body changes which is called "regeneration" not only he changes into a new actor but also in each regeneration has a different personality as well and different tastebuds and different views likes and dislikes it's like a change in your molicules so yes each actor is different but the Doctor is still the same character and retains the same memories as the former Doctor reason for this behind-the-scenes is simply actors don't like to copy other actors performances. This show has a 60 year old history behind it there was the original series of Dr. Who now referred to as Classic Who which ran from 1963 to 1989 then a television movie in 1996 which was an attempt to bring the show back which failed then the revival in 2005-2022 now the new disney version 2023-present this episode is the third reintroduction to the Doctor and the first to introduce his new companion Ruby Sunday though they were both introduced in the previous episode "The Church on Ruby Road".

So few reactors get to experience regeneration unspoiled. Someone inevitably comes along and explains this. The few I have seen get to be surprised have been great fun.

@sallyatticum Yeah it sucks when people explain key things instead of waiting for them to find out.

Nice reaction! Yeah, starting with Church on Ruby Road is the best entry for this Doctor. Personally, I did NOT like this episode, but I have really liked the rest of them so far. It is not spoilery to add the context that, due to some shenanigans that took place in the specials preceding this season, there are more supernatural and fairy tale elements than usual going on. The Doctor and a celestial being called the Toymaker disrupted reality and allowed myths to exist in this realm. (There usually are more aliens.) I would not recommend watching those specials as they deal with important old story lines. But that should be enough context going forward. My faves are 2005-2010 Series 1-4 plus the specials. From there, I like individual episodes from each season.

Thank you for the information. Coming into this i was looking forward to more aliens, i guess i picked the wrong doctor haha. I also feel that the first episode is gonna be my least favorite one, the second one was already better so I can imagine its uphill from here.

should watch from the 9th doctor.
