I think with Davison, he put a lot of Hartnell style 'grumpy' moments ino his performance than a full blow-out, aside from what you have just mentioned. I'm struggling to think of others for myself at the moment....

I've just had a few days of watching Davison. I think he would have benefited from a more angry side.

If he had though, we wouldn't have had such a contrast when Colin Baker took over, now he really WAS angry......

5 got angry with Adric at the start of Earthshock over nothing, but that is the only time I've seen 5 being angry.

Getting angry with Adric is completely understandable though.

I never really liked Colin Baker very much because his (the 6th) Doctor was so grumpy/angry so much, but then I heard Colin Baker say how he had plans for the character to develop, which got cut short by him being axed ... would have liked to have seen how that would have panned out.

Don't put yourself down like that, it always looks smaller from above. I hear cutting back the old forest helps add an inch.

Really? How did you get that job? (what job exactly). That is my dream job - to work on Doctor Who. I work in TV - just started though so if I were to work on Doctor Who it probably wouldnt be for some time lol

That doesn't mean he shouldn't have got angry now and again, that was part of his character, just not to be so unpleasant, that would have been good!

I prefer to think of his temper more as a hang-over from his tenth incarnation and the fact that he was not ready to leave that body. He didn't want to go so has much more of a hightened sense of loss and hence much more angry at the prospect of his own demise.
Of course, it could also be the knowledge that he is nearing the end of his cycle of regenerations, and at this time does not know how the BBC will allow him to continue past 12... ![]() D |

Matt Smith is a top bloke and is my favourite Doctor of all, Eccleston was a perfectionist but ok, Tennant was well meh as a person.

It would be nice to think that this was some kind of deliberate collaboration between RTD and SM, but I think it's just coincidence. |

Really? I didn't know. I feel like a child who's just discovered Dr Who series and everything is new to me and so I guess my OP looks a little silly now.
![]() .Quite a few people on here have said it, the first and the sixth doctor were quite volatile, although the sixth did calm down considerably. Interestingly even David Tennant was quite shouty at the beginning of his time (and angry), which I found quite hard after Christiopher Eccleston's doctor. Again, he calmed down a lot. Matt is more aggressive than David's doctor (David would not have been so happy about the weeping angel's impending death, he probably would have warned them). So far I haven't minded his aggression, because it seems to be based on real frustration and he is more aggressive (towards humans and other aliens). |

I find it interesting that the anger aimed at his own companion that came as such a surprise and as a powerful moment in DT's finale seems to be a recurring aspect of MS's incarnation.

Why? Davies is gone, Moffat doesn't need his input so why would he want it?
. However, it's nice to have continuity from one doctor to the next, even if the previous headwriter is gone, and as far as I understood RTD and SM are friends and were probably discussing different aspects of the doctor's character during RTD's era. No reason to believe that they now stopped talking because SM has taken over.Why would it be wrong if SM looked at the last two episodes of RTD tenth doctor and deciced to incorporate aspects of things he liked into his eleventh doctor? |

![]() Been a jobbing extra for years, if you really want to get into it then go for it, through doing drama at school then being taken on with an agency i have done quite well, i ear enough to have a good lifestyle and pay the bills. Matt Smith is a top bloke and is my favourite Doctor of all, Eccleston was a perfectionist but ok, Tennant was well meh as a person. I know nothing about acting and interested in what you've said as I read that Eccleston said the Doctor was played close to his own personality. Having also seen Eccleston on stage he does strike me as being very professional yet very natural in the way he plays any part. I love Smith's ability to go from one emotion to the next and he reminds me of Eccleston's era. Both put Tennant into the shade in my inexperienced opinion. I've not seen much of Tennant apart from DW and Hamlet and he seems better suited to the latter - quiet anger than the shouty DW thing. |

I think MS is hot when he's angry.
