Some behind the scenes tidbits I feel normal about (classic who edition):
- apparently every story Matthew Waterhouse's hairstylist would say they were going to trim his hair and never did, resulting in all the variations from crusader triangle to fuck ass bob to shaggy mullet
-Peter Davison was unaware he was many people's sexual awakening in his dressing gown in black orchid
-Colin baker was mistaken for a runner by another actor in arc of infinity and asked to go fetch a coffee (which he did)
-he would also walk around making chicken noises on the set of arc of infinity (until he was told to stop)
-Matthew didn't know adric died in part four of earthshock until he read Peter's script whilst shooting, and was apparently more upset over the fact he was being killed off rather than just leaving
-a lot of the doctor who movie was filmed in the same building as the X-files
-Janet Fielding was told she was good casting for doctor who because she "looked slightly alien"
-Deborah Watling and Frazer Hines used to joke that she left the show because she got pregnant, as she left almost nine months after arriving
-Sylvester Mccoy once couldn't find a filming location until after the doctor who fans, who had been waiting there for an hour
-Paul Mcgann thought all the doctors companions were their kids
-Peter and Sarah Sutton had to stop Janet from accidentally prostituting herself in the red light district
-Sylvester once played the spoons on a guy that tried to menace him
-Paul had to wear a wig because he was casted with the long hair you see in the movie but cut it all off for another role a couple months before they started filming
-Janet called Matthew "matte-finish" and "boom-boom waterhouse" whilst filming earthshock
-the cast bought a prop gun for arc of infinity from a sex shop in amsterdam
(Just to stress I obviously don't know the validity of these I just sourced them from interviews and commentaries!! Please don't come for me if these aren't accurate! These are just some funny things I've heard and if anyone else knows any random facts or stories feel free to reblog/share!!)
#fucking boom boom waterhouse still has me crying#janet fielding making it her mission to bully this 15 yr old on his final story /affectionate#I forget the chaos that's encapsulated by the actors of a show with a runtime of sixty years#also yes these are mainly the fifth seventh and eigth doctor because I got most of these from dvd commentaries lol#like I said feel free to share any other batshit facts you know!!#classic who#fifth doctor#sixth doctor#seventh doctor#eighth doctor#adric#nyssa of traken#tegan jovanka#victoria waterfield#jamie mcrimmon#doctor who

If Stranger Things actually delivers Byler as it seems bet I'll buy the whole show too and save it, I want to have a nice physical media collection for the future because all these things in streaming are too precarious for my taste

Colin Baker makes some excellent faces as an unnamed town hall clerk, assisting Frank Marker with his case in Public Eye: The Man Who Didn't Eat Sweets (5.9, Thames, 1971)
#fave spotting#colin baker#doctor who#classic doctor who#six#public eye#the man who didn’t eat sweets#1971#thames#classic tv#im sure someone will have grabbed images from the dvd and cleaned them up nicely and so there is almost certainly a better post#floating out there on tumblr; after all‚ Colin has a big enough fanbase that someone must have got there#but i see a fave i make a post and with the tools at hand (bad screenshots from the copies on youtube)#I've been Going Through It recently and so revisiting public eye on and off as a source of comfort (it is one of my very favourite things)#but haven't had the energy for posts about it or anything so no episode posts this time round#this has always been one I'm strangely fond of. i think it's Peter Sallis' wonderful performance as the lead guest#he's [SPOILER] a serial bigamist and deceiver of women and yet he's somehow so very.. sympathetic isn't the word. but he has an almost#resigned reasonableness to his acknowledgement that yes‚ he's a dick‚ but he's just such a wife guy that he couldn’t stop getting married#it actually makes Frank's own actions (he covers for Sallis for the sake of the wife who hired him) feel somehow even grubbier and immoral#idk i haven't the brains to type it out#but i always appreciate this ep in a weird way

>"most of classic who is unrepentant garbage that most people cannot be bothered to sit through...."<
My wife and I are people. We have no issues sitting through episodes of classic Doctor Who. We can do it.
So can our daughter.
So can our grandchildren.
Matter of fact, I've built quite the collection of classic Doctor Who on DVD & Blu-ray because I love watching classic Who.
I had plenty of other episodes on VHS, dating back to before there ever was a revival series.

Me: *owns Blakes 7 on DVD already*
Me looking at the new Blu-ray collection set for season 1:
#tempting but i can’t justify it right now. i have no money.#very much need to get a job#life is easy when you’re living with your family and don’t have to worry about a living because you can spend your money on doctor who dvds#but unfortunately i have just about depleted all of that money between dw and christmas/birthday stuff for others#being a geek comes with a cost and that cost is no money#blakes 7

Behind the Scenes of The Unicorn and the Wasp (Part Seven)
Excerpts from Andrew Pixley's article in DWM 525:
When scenes and dialogue compete for space, there are often casualties in the cutting room. Some actors are ultimately never heard. If they’re very unlucky, they aren’t even seen. Major restructuring to The Unicorn and the Wasp (2008) was undertaken prior to transmission. This left the main 1926 narrative intact with the young Agatha Christie, but eliminated the bookending scenes with her older self in 1976. “Although it was a lovely sequence, it just seemed unnecessary,” said director Graeme Harper in a podcast commentary, while on the DVD showrunner Russell T Davies explained: “You got the feeling that everything was taking part in the past tense … It took all the drama out of it.” This meant the loss of two cast members: Daphne Oxenford as ‘Old Agatha’ and Natalie Barrett as her nurse. Fortunately the Complete Fourth Series DVD box set includes these touching sequences of the famous novelist in the final days of her life, resolving the one mystery that had baffled her
Link to [ part one ] of this post, or click the #whoBtsUnicorn tag, or the [ full episode list ]
#david tennant#catherine tate#doctor who#rtdedit#the unicorn and the wasp#I'm also a sucker for cut scenes and dvd extras#which are becoming a thing of the past these days#forever grateful for all the extras we got with Doctor Who#like the commentaries and video diaries and confidentials#we were blessed#stuff i posted#whoBts#whoBtsUnicorn

Doctor Who (1996) + VHS & DVD covers, variations.
Featuring Australia's M rated cover, and the very rare US VHS.
I included Finland's release of the VHS, for apparently (according to The TARDIS Library), it translates to "1999: Destruction of Earth." And I found that quite interesting!
Bonus: The Chinese Laserdisc, Japanese VHS, & Czech Republic VHS:
Sidenote: The Czech Republic & French VHS both translate to: The Lord of Time. How intriguing!
#I also decided to throw the laserdisc in here as well#because it's cool#the sixth (out of seven) of DW laserdiscs made#still planning on getting the bluray release sometime#I own the UK and Australia VHS's#and the US DVD#but I love how dramatic the french and czech translation is!#sylvester mccoy#paul mcgann#daphne ashbrook#eric roberts#yee jee tso#seventh doctor#eighth doctor#grace holloway#roberts!master#chang lee#doctor who#doctor who the tv movie#mcgann monday
