booooomstrawberries: Doctor Who Challenge #18: Favorite Doctor Moment- The Doctor trash talks a Dalek I kind of want to go with a moment when the Doctor is doing some amazing physical feat like in “Human Nature” when he throws the ball to save the baby from a falling piano, or when he owns ass in soccer in “The Lodger.” But I’m actually going to go with the first time the show ever really drew me in. That would be from the 2005 episode “Dalek” when Nine has dialog with the first Dalek he’s seen since the Time War. I still hadn’t really bought into the show’s greatness after having seen the Slitheen episodes.  But then BAM! Eccleston’s acting levels the entire scene and you get a glimpse into the Doctor’s fury and dark side. We see this dark side come out in future episodes like “The Runaway Bride,” “The Family of Blood,” or Eleven’s speech at the end of “The Pandorica Opens.” It’s times like those when we realize why Vashta Nerada or the Atraxi run from him. Because in between his moments of loving goofiness, malaise, or cockiness, he’s actually kind of scary.

    Yep…it’s a “hide behind sofa” moment, and not because of the Dalek. I seem to recall hearing that they wanted him to...
