Benvenuti o bentornati sul nostro blog. Nello scorso articolo abbiamo ripreso a parlare di pellicole tratte dalle opere di Stephen King e allo stesso tempo abbiamo anche discusso di un regista che amo molto, George A. Romero. Il film in questione è La metà oscura. Thad Beaumont è uno scrittore da tutti conosciuto con lo pseudonimo di George Stark e pubblica principalmente libri molto violenti che…

Countdown to the 60th anniversary rewatch | 2.07: The Idiot's Lantern

[nerds-yearbook]

In 1953, just prior to the coronation of Queen Elizabeth the II, the police were trying to keep quiet a growing number of people who seemed to have their faces literally go blank (no eyes, mouth, nose, etc). ("The Idiot’s Lantern", Doctor Who, vlm 3 TV)

Disraeli: Mary Anne (1.2, ATV, 1978)

"You know, for years, I couldn't stand the sight of you. Cos of your - your rings and your perfumes and your fancy way of dressing. D'you have to be such a cursed dandy?"

"A dandy is not a mere clothes horse. To be a true dandy is to be self-disciplined, detached, even spiritual. It is also a gesture of individuality and a mask, behind which the sneers of the world cannot reach."

"Well, maybe you needed something to hide behind once but... hang it, that's why some of the others still distrust you. They expect their leading statesmen to look the part. Not like some Italian dancing master, what?"

'It's possible that the plans of the Toymaker (Neil Patrick Harris) share something in common with a forgotten villain from David Tennant's first Doctor Who era. Tennant's Fourteenth Doctor will reunite with Donna Noble (Catherine Tate) to confront the machinations of the Toymaker in three 60th anniversary specials written by Russell T Davies. Bizarrely, the anniversary will mark only the second time that the Doctor and the Toymaker have faced off on screen, despite the villain having made a big impression on Doctor Who fandom since their first appearance during the William Hartnell era.

The Toymaker's Doctor Who return after 57 years is just one of many nostalgic treats in store for fans. Russell T Davies is also adapting the beloved Doctor Who Weekly comic strip "Doctor Who and the Star Beast" to finally bring Beep the Meep (Miriam Margoyles) to the screen. However, it's another villain from RTD's first era that has a link to the Toymaker and their possible plans to turn the entire human race against the Doctor and UNIT in the third special "The Giggle". Some subtle teases by RTD in his monthly Doctor Who Magazine column, and a brief look at the history of television reveals a surprising potential link between the Toymaker and The Wire (Maureen Lipman) from the season 2 episode "The Idiot's Lantern".

Doctor Who Is Teasing A Link Between The Toymaker And The Wire

Earlier in 2023, the first full Doctor Who 60th anniversary trailer revealed a creepy ventriloquist dummy peering out of a TV screen at the Doctor. This is presumably from the final special, entitled "The Giggle", as the Doctor states that the Toymaker is "laughing at the human race." The Tenth Doctor previously faced an enemy that communicated with humanity via their TV screens in Mark Gatiss' season 2 episode "The Idiot's Lantern". In that, the nefarious Wire used the Queen's Coronation to feed off the mental energy of the viewing public as they huddled around their brand-new televisions. The Doctor defeated the Wire by trapping her inside an obsolete Betamax tape so that it could never be viewed again.

It's unlikely that the Toymaker is in league with the Wire, but their methods of attacking the human race appear to be weirdly similar. Writing in Doctor Who Magazine, Russell T Davies teased that there are two well-known historical figures with cameos in the 60th anniversary specials. One of these celebrity historical characters could be the creator of the television himself, John Logie Baird. In 1924, John Logie Baird used the head of a ventriloquist dummy in his experiments to broadcast a television signal between his rooms at Frith Street in London. Named Stooky Bill, the dummy bears a striking resemblance to the one that's appeared in Doctor Who's 60th anniversary special trailers.

RTD's Previous Show Supports Doctor Who's Toymaker TV Theory

Alongside a tease of historical figures featuring in Doctor Who's 60th anniversary specials, there was an interesting reference to the show released prior to RTD's Doctor Who return. Nolly was a three-part miniseries about the UK soap star Noele Gordon, and RTD has teased that it somehow ties into the special. This is a fascinating tease because of the connection between Noele Gordon and John Logie Baird, as the two met each other way back in 1928. In Nolly, Helena Bonham-Carter's Gordon talks about how she was the first person to appear on TV in color, a fact which is 100% true.

On July 3rd, 1928, an 8-year-old Noele Gordon participated in John Logie Baird's first ever color broadcast. RTD's tease about an in-universe Doctor Who link to Nolly combined with the apparent appearance of Stooky Bill does suggest that the history of television is at the center of the anniversary specials. If that wasn't enough, photos from location filming revealed David Tennant and Catherine Tate mingling with background artistes in 1920s costumes. As Doctor Who celebrates its 60th anniversary, it seems that it will also celebrate the history of television itself.

Theory: The Toymaker Uses TV To Turn Humanity Against David Tennant's Doctor

The most recent trailer for Doctor Who's 60th anniversary specials sees the Doctor and Donna pay a visit to the Toymaker's timeless shop. It's the same shop that an unknown figure was seen entering during an earlier trailer. As RTD has hinted that this character is played by a big name star, it's a safe bet that this will be a figure of historical significance, like John Logie Baird. Perhaps Logie Baird bought Stooky Bill from the Toymaker in 1924, thus implanting the signal that the returning Hartnell-era Doctor Who villain will use to turn humanity against the Doctor and UNIT.

Television being used as a weapon feels appropriate for a Doctor Who story in 2023, and the era of fake news. Russell T Davies has always enjoyed brazenly satirical statements since his commentary on the Iraq War in a Ninth Doctor story about farting aliens. It would be on brand for him to use the 60th anniversary as a platform to talk about the development of television between 1963 and 2023. As Doctor Who prepares to enter a brand new digital era via a global streaming deal with Disney+, there could be no better time for the Doctor to confront television itself.'
