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

Fourteen: Adric.

Fifteen: Adric. River Song. All the people we lost. Sarah Jane is gone. Can you believe that for a second?

Fourteen: I loved her.

Fifteen: I loved her. And Rose.

Really does dawn on me: when is Modern Doctor Who going to get a time-displaced companion again? Like I understand that Companions these days are kinda ment to be a Psuedo-Audience Surrogate but like there is something a bit more fun yanking someone from like the 16th Century & they are baffled at the modern era or beyond.

Been thinking a lot recently about both the Fifth Doctor and Jamie which has lead me to think about the Fifth Doctor and Jamie and I think, knowing how many children and grandchildren Jamie has, it’s safe to assume that he’s good with and/ or likes kids and so I propose, an older Jamie, like, post Season 6b, reunited with Five while he’s with Tegan, Nyssa and Adric and being like a second dad to them.

I think it’s made even better by the fact that since Five mistook Adric for Jamie in his post-regeneration haze that Adric definitely recognizes the name Jamie. Can you imagine being Adric, being mistaken for some guy called Jamie by the Doctor and then finally having a face for the name, and it’s your new dad.

Also he’d definitely be super protective of them all. Someone says even the slightest mean thing about Nyssa and he’s shouting Gaelic obscenities. It takes one wrong comment about Adric being annoying for him to pull out the Sgian-dubh.

Jamie gets Adric a McCrimmon tartan Kilt

If I had a proper idea for this I’d write a fic cuz I need this realized SO badly. If you have an idea/ want to brainstorm something with me, hit me up.

anyway the fifth doctor has a shared language with each of his first three companions - mathematics with Adric, science with Nyssa, his beloved earth with Tegan.

But the only shared language between the group as a whole is that of loss, and that is hiding in the uneasiness behind every interaction, every fractious moment between them, why they never quite gel together as a team.
