I've gotta say going from watching the legend of ruby sunday and seeing the doctor going crazy about the idea of possibly having a granddaughter (having not seen the rest of the series and just watching it bc my boyfriend was)
to then going and watching the original 1960s run and seeing a character who literally calls him grandfather (made even more confusing because BBC iplayer doesn't have the first episode and jumps straight to the daleks so I missed all the set up) is quite the experience
#doctor who#I understand that apparently the genocide thing doesn't happen until later so that's probably why#but wow what a mind fuck#also the 63 run is so charming!#I wouldn't say it's necessarily aged well but it's really fun#and watching black and white TV for the first time is really fascinating#also sidenote but holy shit I can't believe so much of this run is lost media!#like it makes sense but it's also surprising considering how influential it's been and how well known it is
