Short summary
Rose is seen searching the Internet for information on The Doctor, and finds a conspiracy website run by a man called Clive (Mark Benton). The site - www.whoisdoctorwho.co.uk is real. It's maintained by the BBC's Доктор Кто (2005) web team and still accessible as of 2016.
The book the doctor speed-reads at the beginning of the episode and says has a "sad ending" is "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold.
When the second time the Doctor and Rose meet, the Doctor looks in the mirror and said it could be worse, which could mean he regenerated recently.
A second season and Christmas special were commissioned on the strength of the first episode's ratings alone.
When telling the meaning for TARDIS to Rose, the Doctor, instead of using the more well-known "Time And Relative Dimensions in Space," used the original title, making Dimension singular instead of plural.
The Time War gets its first mention, albeit a little cryptically, when the Doctor explains to Rose the Nestene's food stock was destroyed in a war. We are also told later on that the Doctor himself fought in the war.
In the scene where the Doctor is in Rose's flat, the original script called for The Doctor to stick his entire head in the cat flap. But when they got it, it was far too small.
On the very first transmission of this episode, the beginning sequence involving Rose and the Autons was accidentally played with a Graham Norton voice over. Julie Gardner immediately called the BBC switchboard and managed to help solve the problem with the transmitters just in time for The Doctor to say his first line.
When the Doctor speaks to the Nestene Consciousness, he mentions the Shadow Proclamation, which is then mentioned often throughout series one to four, and which the Doctor and Donna visit in Доктор Кто: The Stolen Earth (2008).
In one scene, Clive shows Rose a picture of the Doctor standing in the crowd in Dallas on November 22, 1963, just before President Kennedy is assassinated. This is a nod to the original "Dr. Who" series: Доктор Кто: An Unearthly Child (1963) was first aired the day after Kennedy's assassination, on November 23, 1963.
This episode was watched by 10.81 million viewers on its original transmission, winning a 44.84% audience share.
The first time Rose walks into the TARDIS, for a few seconds you can hear the Doomsday theme.
When searching for the Doctor on the Internet Rose uses search-wise. This is an actual web page with the same logo as on the show, but it is not actually a search engine: instead, it is a web page created by a company called Compuhire, designed for use in television and film when a search engine is required to be seen on-screen.
The first appearance of the Doctor shows him grabbing Rose's hand. This was a departure from the style of the previous series as the final producer of Доктор Кто (1963), John Nathan-Turner, didn't like the Doctor and his companions to touch as he thought there should be no implied sexual relationship between the two.
In the first episode, "Rose", the Doctor faces and defeats the Nestenes and their animated plastic Autons for the third time - Jon Pertwee's Doctor encountered them twice in the original Доктор Кто (1963) series in the early 1970s. Also, there were three fan-produced "Auton" spin-off video releases in the 1990s, Auton (1997), Auton 2: Sentinel (1998) and Auton 3 (1999).
In the original script, Rose's first experience of seeing the TARDIS interior was shared with the audience. Director Keith Boak, however, wanted her to exit and run around the TARDIS before entering again, at which point the interior would be revealed to the audience. This change was eventually embraced by the executive producers. Russell T. Davies remarked that he originally wanted to take Rose and the audience inside the TARDIS in all one shot, but this was not feasible with the budget. This effect would later be accomplished in the 2012 Christmas special, Доктор Кто: The Snowmen (2012).
The Autons are the only monster to have twice ushered in a new Doctor, having previously battled his third incarnation in Доктор Кто: Spearhead from Space: Episode 1 (1970). This is also the third time that the Autons have featured in the first story of a new season: Доктор Кто: Spearhead from Space: Episode 1 (1970) launched season 7 and Доктор Кто: Terror of the Autons: Episode One (1971) launched season 8. The Daleks (who do not appear in this story) also started off three seasons, the 9th, 17th and 25th.
This episode features the first use of the word "gay" (and therefore also the first explicit reference to homosexuality) in the history of the television series. There was no reference to it in the original series, Доктор Кто (1963), because society was more socially conservative then.
Russell T. Davies had trouble coming up with how Mickey was supposed to be captured by the Nestene while waiting for Rose in the car, and finally realised he could be lured by a plastic wheelie bin. He commented that such instances of the ordinary being made scary made Доктор Кто (1963) unique.
The entrance of the Doctor was something much debated; Jane Tranter and other members of the production team wanted it to be more dramatic, but the scene was never reshot. Russell T. Davies remarked that it reflects Rose's point of view, whereas a more dramatic entrance would reflect the audience's excitement at the Doctor coming back.
A special effects milestone occurs when the Doctor is shown standing in the door of the TARDIS and the interior is clearly visible behind him. In the original series, the interior of the TARDIS was usually shown as a dark void whenever a head-on view of the open doors - a rarity - occurred (though this has previously been done in the pilot version of the first episode of the original series; however curiously enough not in its broadcast version). For the first time, elements of the exterior of the TARDIS - specifically the inside of the doors and the POLICE PUBLIC CALL BOX lettering along the roofline - are visible from the console room.
Seventh Doctor Sylvester McCoy praised this episode, stating: "It had a great pace, it moved really quickly and was witty. Christopher Eccleston was quite alien as the Doctor - he looked wonderful. He had this manic grin - we were not sure if he was on the edge of insanity or not, which was rather good. He ran into danger with such gusto. He galloped at it joyfully. Billie Piper was quite fantastic. The relationship between the two was quite extraordinary. In a way this Doctor was not the brightest brain in the universe - he's a bit like an Oxford don in that he's full of brains but with not much nous. There was a great scene when he was searching for a giant round object and Rose had to point out he was standing in front of the London Eye. He seemed to need Rose more than any other Doctor needed his companion, because she could really help him."
The news footage of the burning department store is actually of the major fire in the Cowgate, Edinburgh, on the night of 7 December 2002. Though nobody was hurt, there was extensive damage and the Gilded Balloon comedy venue, where many of today's top comics appeared at the beginning of their careers, was completely destroyed.
The episode, like Доктор Кто (1996), breaks with what had become the tradition of including the Doctor's image in the title sequence.
Russell T. Davies stated that he chose to have Christopher Eccleston depict a new incarnation of the Doctor so he could have a fresh start for both the new viewers and the narratives he wanted to implant in the series, and because Eccelston was a good friend of his who wanted to help Doctor Who gain momentum to become successful again.
Mickey's flat is the same set as the Tyler's, just redecorated.
The episode was intended to be presented from Rose's point-of-view. For audience identification purposes, Russell T. Davies wanted the alien menace to be easily mistaken as human, so that it was possible for Rose to mistake the aliens for humans. Davies felt that there was no need to create a new monster, as the Autons met these criteria
CGI was used in post-production to cover up the zipper on the back of the necks of the Auton costumes.
Paul McGann said that he would have reprised his role as The Eighth Doctor if given the chance, but Russell T. Davies did not want to depict a regeneration with first-time viewers tuning in, who would be unable to identify why the Doctor changed appearances. Eventually, he was given a chance to reprise his role in Доктор Кто: The Night of the Doctor (2013), which dealt with the lingering mystery of his regeneration.
This story seemingly implied that the Ninth Doctor had recently undergone regeneration from a past incarnation, when he commented about the features of his face while looking at a mirror in Rose's flat. The logical assumption at the time of his debut among viewers was that he had regenerated from the Eighth Doctor. However, this was disproven in 2013 when Steven Moffat conceived a new incarnation to retroactively insert between the Eighth and Ninth Doctors. The so-called War Doctor, played by John Hurt, did not call himself the Doctor until the end of his life, and was an honourary, unnumbered inclusion among the other incarnations who carried the title fully throughout their lives. The War Doctor was cemented as the Ninth Doctor's predecessor when he regenerated into him near the end of Доктор Кто: The Day of the Doctor (2013). Additionally, in a retrospective on the new series in DWM 485, Russell T. Davies stated the intention of the scene was merely him noticing the features, rather like being disappointed with "buck teeth" or similar unaesthetically pleasing traits. He notes the Doctor in the episode is "in command" rather than post-regenerative, and he included the references to Krakatoa and Titanic to suggest this incarnation has a life before this episode.
The "UNIT website" would reveal that the Auton assault was commonly believed to be an attack by "disguised members of a terrorist coalition", though some people did believe it was aliens; UNIT would not "confirm or deny" that.
For the scene in which the Doctor and Rose are running through London, careful timing was undertaken by the production team because they wanted a London bus to travel behind them, but this had to be accomplished by waiting for a bus to come. In other scenes filmed in Cardiff, a London bus and a van of the London Evening Standard drove by to give the illusion of London.
On 8 March 2005, Reuters reported that a copy of the episode had been leaked onto the Internet, and was being widely traded via the BitTorrent file sharing protocol. The leaked episode did not contain the new arrangement of the theme tune by Murray Gold. The leak was ultimately traced to a third party company in Canada which had a legitimate preview copy. The employee responsible was fired by the company and the BBC considered further legal action.
The reference to the Doctor having a Northern accent relates to the media attention generated around Christopher Eccleston - who had always retained his native Lancashire accent - not conforming to people's perception of what the Doctor should be like. It also references the fact the different actors who had previously played the Doctor had, themselves, differing accents, most notably Sylvester McCoy, whose Doctor spoke with a light Scottish accent.
Russell T. Davies wanted the Doctor to realise that Rose has something to offer to his cause. Their holding hands while running was meant to signify that they were a team, despite him not asking her yet, and they were not to question their relationship.
Russell T. Davies offered Edgar Wright the opportunity to direct the episode, but Wright was forced to decline, as he was still working on Зомби по имени Шон (2004).
This is the first story featuring the new TARDIS console room, which has a far more organic appearance than its predecessors. Initially questioned by fans, the later mini-episode Доктор Кто: Time Crash (2007) would confirm this as a new "desktop theme" for the TARDIS interior, which the Fifth Doctor called "coral".
This is the first episode to use the name of a companion in its title.
The scene in which Rose wanders through the basement of the department store alone was the first scene Billie Piper shot as Rose Tyler.
Georgia Moffett, daughter of Peter Davison, who starred as the Fifth Doctor from 1981-1984, asked producers to allow her to audition for the part of Rose, but they declined, stating she was too young. She would go on to play Jennie in David Tennant's "The Doctor's Daughter", and in fact, to marry Tennant in real life.
According to Russell T. Davies, the Time War was started due to events depicted in the Fourth Doctor adventure "Genesis of the Daleks" (1975).
Russell T. Davies had to take out "oblique" references to the Autons being like terrorists, as the Eye was once a target of a terrorist attack.
The Auton sequences were difficult to film because the costumes were uncomfortable for the actors; which meant that frequent breaks from filming were needed.
The word "Auton" is not used in the dialogue of the story, but does appear in the episode credits.
This episode introduced a unique recording format for the show. While this episode and the rest of the revival series are videotaped rather than filmed, the footage is digitally upscaled to achieve the level of quality seen in modern film.
Fans wrongly believed the series was a reboot and had nothing to do with the original series and the 1996 TV movie.
The production team was given permission to add more lights to the London Eye.
Russell T. Davies wanted to recreate the scene of the Autons breaking out of shop windows from their first appearance in Spearhead from Space, although he had the budget to actually smash the glass instead of just cutting around it like in Spearhead.
This is the only episode introducing a new Doctor in the revived series to not run longer than average.
This was the first episode since Доктор Кто: Revelation of the Daleks: Part Two (1985) to run for approximately 45 minutes.
The sonic screwdriver makes a reappearance on screen in a new shape but with the same sound effect. The screwdriver was first introduced in Доктор Кто: Fury from the Deep: Episode 1 (1968) and destroyed in Доктор Кто: The Visitation: Part Three (1982), then reappeared in Доктор Кто (1996).
The story itself could be a close sequel to Spearhead from Space, and has thematic similarities to the earlier story, as both feature a new Doctor, a new companion, and the Auton invasion in London. The Autons had also appeared in Terror of the Autons, the story that introduced the Master, another new companion, and recurring UNIT character Mike Yates. All three Auton stories featured the debut appearance of an incarnation for either the Doctor or the Master.
Nicholas Briggs makes his debut on the revived series, providing the voice of the Nestene Consciousness. He would go to be the show's designated voice actor, remaining the Daleks and Cybermen's voice actor. He had been an active participant in independent, unofficial, and licensed spin-off productions dating back to the 1980s, most notably hosting the Myth Makers interview video series, writing and directing films for BBV Productions and Reeltime Pictures, and as producer of the Big Finish Productions Доктор Кто (1963) audio dramas, a project that had its roots in Audio Visuals, a series of fan-made Doctor Who audio adventures in which Briggs himself played the Doctor. In 2009, Briggs would have his first official on-screen appearance in a Who franchise production with a supporting role in Торчвуд (2006): Children of Earth.
The original preview trailers for Series 1 include a scene where the Ninth Doctor is narrowly outrunning a fireball behind him down a concrete tunnel. This is likely set moments after he set off the explosives he laid in Henrik's, and details his escape from the doomed building.
Mark Benton was cast at short notice after the actor first cast dropped out.
The scene in which the Auton arm attacks in the Tyler's flat was originally much longer, but was revised.
There were problems during the first broadcast of this episode in the UK which meant that sound from a BBC Three program, Strictly Dance Fever (2005) hosted by Graham Norton, was heard over the scene in which Rose first encounters the Autons.
The surname Finch was used for Clive and his wife in the production notes, but not in the on-screen version.
Between the final scene and the closing credits, the episode incorporates a "Next Time..." trailer for the next episode. This is the first time this device has been used in Доктор Кто (2005). This becomes a regular feature, omitted only on rare occasions, or occasionally moved to the end of the closing credits.
The episode name had gradually been shortened. In Russell T. Davies' pitch it had been called Rose meets the Doctor, and the journey begins, on his contract as Rose Meets The Doctor, but finally shortened to Rose.
The episode originally underran by several minutes, and a scene with the Doctor and Rose walking was added a month or so later.
It took the production team a while to find a restaurant that would require minimal set dressing but would be willing to close for a day.
Special effects producer Mike Tucker was reminded of the James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) when reading the scene in which the Nestene's lair is blown up, and sought to display it as a major effect. The production team built a one-sixth scale model of the warehouse where the explosions were filmed. Tucker did a model explosion for the destruction of Henrik's as well, although that was only for the roof; the rest was done by CGI. The production team considered doing the explosion practically, but that would have been too expensive.
Rose's comment about the Doctor sounding like he was from the north marks the second time Earth geography has been applied to the Doctor's demeanour (previously, he was referred to as being from England in Доктор Кто (1996)).
For this, the first episode, the opening credits follow the UK standard of title sequence then programme. The rest of the season would include a teaser before the main title sequence.
This episode takes place from March 4 to March 5, 2005.
Noel Clarke (Born 1975) is 7 years older than Billie Piper (Born 1982).
This is the first appearance of Rose Tyler, Mickey Smith and Jackie Tyler.
Took place a couple of months after Rose Tyler briefly encountered the dying Tenth Doctor (Just before his regeneration) on January 1st 2005 in Доктор Кто: The End of Time: Part Two (2010).
