What he may be alluding to is the idea that fiction is never created out of nothing. It's always based on true principles, true events that did happen, etc. The meaning being, our most basic stories that we "create" are a combination of different things we may have actually or vicariously experienced (through our own personal experiences or the writings, literature, and media of others). In this way, every story ever told may not represent actual events that happened but they do at least represent real ideas or combinations of ideas, events, characters, etc., that have happened. Robin Hood, for example, is a work of fiction, but the setting did exist, the weapons, the class, freedom fighters, corrupt kings and authority, etc. They were just woven together into a character who represented attributes of real people who inspired his character.

Sorry but that is actually the opposite of the Bystander Effect. The BE states that a person is less likely to extend help (not shoot someone) to someone in need (about to be shot) when they are in the real or imagined presence of others (a firing squad). This was more a symbol of Rassilon's crumbling rule and authority (Zapping everyone who disagress like he did The Partisan will do that). They recognised The Doctor as a figure of more legitimate authority because they've come right off the back of the Time War and didn't see how The Doctor had become a much more goofy and adventurous person since his War incarnation. Rassilon was out of touch and the Time Lord military wanted a new Lord President, which is why The Doctor wasnt shot

@reetombera9288

​@@josephjackson9679 While the bystander effect is most commonly and classically applied to the situation of emergency situations where people are needed to provide help and assistance, this is still a very similar application. i.e. I'm noting strong similarities: Classic bystander effect: With the presence of multiple people, one person is less likely to act (in normal cases, help in an emergency), primarily because of the idea that there are others around and so they'll probably take care of it, except that everyone's thinking that. End result, no one does anything. The application here: With the presence of multiple troopers, each one themselves did not want to shoot the Doctor (considered the analogical equivalent of providing emergency assistance), but likely assumed that someone else would handle it in their squad. end result, no one did anything. If you want to argue that that is not the classical definition of the Bystander effect, then fine, but you cannot deny that both situations are strikingly similar. To your 2nd paragraph, yes, all of that is true. But considering the power and authority Rassilon had, the Time Lord Military, individually, was likely not about to speak out against him to their own peril, but once it is made clear that there was no one there present that would willingly kill the Doctor, then they realized that they were all on the same page, and in numbers, were stronger than Rassilon, but that all started with an alternative application of the bystander effect that led the military squad to realize that none of them wanted to obey Rassilon's command.

And still wants to go on to throw himself into the next adventure, even if it means they must fight again.

That to me smacks of he renegotiated her contract to give her whatever she wanted to stick around a little longer. And yes that's true there's an interview with Jenna and Peter talking about her contract ending in season 8, but moffatt convincing her to stay for another year.

I have loved all the Doctors I have seen, 9-12. Tennant defined the nature of the Doctor, but for me Capaldi really completed the character. He was my favorite.

"With all due respect, 'Lord President', get off his planet." Also, this means that Rassilon is out there somewhere. Probably spiteful. And bound to return. Who's gonna play him next, though? I, personally, would love to see someone like, I think Idris Elba would make an intimidating Rassilon.

In my head canon, Skull Moon was where the "Warrior" persona of the Doctor first revealed himself after his regeneration. I imagine it as a battle the Time Lords were losing until the War Doctor arrived and single-handedly turned the tide. He saved the lives of the soldiers there and annihilated the Daleks without ever raising a weapon. So, in my mind, when that soldier tells the 12th Doctor he was at Skull Moon it was an acknowledgement that he owed the Doctor his life. It also, in my mind, explains why that same soldier backed up in his heavily-armed ship as the Doctor walked toward him. He saw and knew what an unarmed Doctor could do.

He was ready to kill a good man, who saved Gallifrey from the Great Time War. Do you still admire that person Rassilon became? He did great things in the past, but that person doesn't exist anymore.

As one of the three 'founding fathers' of Time Lord society, Rassilon's reputation held thrall over Gallifreyan culture for countless millennia, even when he lay dormant in the Dark Tower; so it made sense to resurrect him to rule as president during the Time War. However, his cruelty soon became apparent, when he considered it reasonable to slay members of the High Council who disagreed with him. This simple but highly effective scene sees the 'myth' behind the man unraveled when the Doctor refuses to play by Rassilon's rules and meet violence with violence. Brilliant.

Half human is NOT canon according to the Beeb. It does say so in the Movie of course but Paul McGann is considered a canon doctor more because of the audio series than the film while Peter Cushing is not considered canon despite being in two dr who films. I think the way the BBC decided to handle it was to simply ignore what the Master says in the film. David Tennant's doctor pointed out that a human-time lord mix wasn't possible before removing Donna's memories to save her life. But then River is not fully human, she has time lord DNA and was conceived on the Tardis. To be honest none of it really makes sense so it's probably best for the Beeb to not even try and "fix" it. Just move on with the doc as a full Gallifreyan and Me (Aishildr) as "The Hybrid".

I heard a quote once: “myths and legends are truths blown out of proportion by storytellers.” Interesting concept when you think about various mythologies.

The moment Rassilon is ejected gets very important after the Timeless Child Retcon and the fact that the Master wiped out the Time Lords. Rassilon is the strongest creature in the universe as we know. He could easily recreate Gallifrey and the Time Lord society from ashes. He could also tem up with the Sisterhood of Karn in this project. So even though the Master destroyed the Time Lords in the future they could easily come back. And I am pretty sure they will. Rassilon is no joke. His strength, his will of survival and his ego of the importance of the Time Lords will make sure that they will do come back.

It wasn't just suddenly back, the cracks, the doctor's confession dial, the entire show since matt's run has been leading up to Gallifrey being back! It's still outside the universe, the doctor was just transferred there by 'Me' because the high commission needed information on the hybrid. The assumption is the entire reason the doctor stole a Tardis and ran away is because he knows who and what the hybrid is, the cause of the fall of Gallifrey is knowledge for him that no other time lord has, and it's something the High Commission would kill him to get. @Baedroid 21 This was a bad way to get rid of Clara, you're absolutely right. Using Gallifrey as a scapegoat for the end of Clara's arc was ridiculous, and even though I loved Clara as a companion it was rather unforgivable. Here's hoping the new doctor's companion isn't as important to the story, because even though Jenna coleman is a ridiculously good actor, the companion should never be the focus of the a show called "Doctor who." But Moffat's stories have always rhymed with each other. The human who absorbed the essence of time(Rose), the human who absorbed the essence of the doctor(Donna), the human who had a child of time(Amy), and the human who, through exposure and years of friendship all throughout his life, gained the mind of the doctor(Clara).

Imagine like a time lord civil war with the Master stirring up trouble between the two sides and the Doctor trying to keep the peace. That would have been an awesome two parter finale. Instead we get a zombie cybermen grand plan from the Master and a Clara storyline from Gallifrey. K then.

Lord Omega My personal choice for the Master would be Charles Dance or someone like that. Someone classical who could do the whole slimy villain thing but still be intimidating. I don't mind Missy (I actually enjoyed the zombie Cybermen episodes for what they were) but... Charles Dance.

Here's a thought. The War Doctor (John Hurt) and the Professor Yana version of the Master (Derek Jacobi) were both fighting in the Time War. Imagine an episode with both of them playing those roles.

smartalec2001 I always thought the 50th would have been amazing as a stand alone episode about the time war and the destruction of Gallifrey. As it is I think it's a bit of a sloppy slap stick comedy despite some brilliant performances from the cast. (RIP John Hurt, :( lost yet another legend)

It's amazing how they got the doctor so right, only to do a 180 and go of the rails for the rest of the episode.

Hell of a performance; genuinely, the actor who plays Rassilon, Donald Sumpter, looks the absolute spit of my late grandfather, so it’s hard to make me dislike him, but this scene managed it well enough.

I haven't got this far in New Who yet but...considering how powerful Rassilon was in The 5 Doctors alone (turning someone into living stone while unconscious), he should've been able to murder all those guards and The Doctor with a passing thought.

Rassilon was able to kill people who disagreed with him as well as possibly being able to turn people who "betrayed" Rassilon into Weeping Angels (notice the woman behind Rassilon in End Of Time - possibly The Doctor's mother, she's holding her hands like the weeping angels) as well as nearly killed The Doctor with his gauntlet.

You're assuming that Rassilon didn't use technology to turn people into stone. Borusa only turned to stone when he put on the ring. If he hadn't have done this he would have survived. This is the mistake a lot of people make about the Time Lords, assuming they are Time Wizards when in fact they are just a stupendously advanced speices. In the classic series it is implied that they have forgotten how much of their tech works.

can we just talk about the rehashed 'bad wolf' theme

But when half the people everywhere though out time that has ever died can be credited to him it does make you think twice before messing with him

The only man in existence who can take over a planet by standing completely still

"Get off his planet." I can work with that.

"How many regenerations did we grant you? I've got all night..." xDD

1:52 that little bit of Bad Wolf is a nice touch. Thank you Murray Gold

my favourite episode, the doctor showing just how much power and influence he has.

Ok but that whistle tune that started at 1:54 is FIRE

It's incredible the build up to this moment over the years, then it finally happens and it's an art piece through and through. Then the next show runner takes over and forgets this ever happened. BUT Flux was really good do gotta give him credit for that. Just hope Davies brings us back here

0:28 That shot. Just Peter's posture and body language, he's so good.

1:52 I love how you can hear the tenth doctor's theme, the eleventh doctor's opening theme and the sting of shepherd's boy in just a few seconds

1:54 - The use of the bad wolf theme here is on point tbh

I finally got the chance to see Capaldi’s run. Seeing this just blew me away. For how much of a threat Rassilon was before, when he’s not needed for the Time War it all just falls apart

the best bit is they also missed the barn door even thought they could have easily aimed in that direction

Plot twist, they were actually trying to hit the doctor all along, but they had the same training as Imperial Stormtroopers.

What a moment of immense tension and the music just works brilliantly.

Rassalon is the true timeless child... And the great villain of the Time Lords.

The doctor is like: im about to end rassilon whole career

If somebody is screeching, their authority is fragile.

The little blink on the first one tossing the weapon is so damn perfect. I hope that actor added it as it is wonderful.
