Doctor Who Deep Breath (2005– ) watch online HD

The new opening credits that were introduced in this episode were based on a fan-made YouTube video by Billy Hanshaw. Steven Moffat was so impressed by the video, he got in touch with Hanshaw to get it recreated by BBC Wales Graphics.

At one point, the Doctor asks a pedestrian "Have you seen this face before?" and then continues to go into a rampant speech about never knowing where his face comes from. A reference to the fact that Peter Capaldi's face has been on the show well before he became the Doctor. In S04E02 The Fires of Pompeii Capaldi played Caecilius

Disregarding the special case of Rose, this is the first episode introducing a new Doctor since "The Power of the Daleks" to not show the Doctor choosing his new outfit.

It is the longest normal Doctor Who episode.

Brian Miller, who was the husband of Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), has a minor role.

"Deep Breath" marked the seventh Doctor that Steven Moffat has written for, eight if you count Tom Baker's cameo in "The Day of the Doctor". In addition to penning stories for the Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh Doctors in their respective eras, Moffat also wrote for the Fifth Doctor in "Time Crash", the Eighth in "The Night of the Doctor" and the War Doctor in "The Day of the Doctor".

During the read-through of the script for this episode, the cast and crew-members filled the room with laughter when Peter Capaldi reached the lines ridiculing his eyebrows. The read-through was also the first time that Capaldi and Jenna Coleman had worked together, as Capaldi had been secretly auditioned.

First appearance of Missy.

At the end of the story, the TARDIS brings the Doctor and Clara to Glasgow, Scotland. Glasgow is Peter Capaldi's birthplace.

This episode attracted Doctor Who (2005)'s best ratings for a series opener for four years, with a peak audience of 7.3 million viewers.

The line Vastra speaks when the Doctor passes out on the beach, "Well here we go again", is a nod to Jon Pertwee's final story Planet of the Spiders in Doctor Who (1963) The same line is said by the Brigadier when the Doctor regenerates into Tom Baker.

No shots of the TARDIS interior are shown before the reveal of its redesign, due to the permanent remodeling of certain parts in the control room for the Twelfth Doctor, which would make the replication of the pre-redecorated console highly tasking.

The "kiss" between Vastra and Jenny was deleted from versions of the episode shown in parts of Asia, due to various cultural stigmas against same-sex intimacies.

Doctor mentions Sweeney Todd, who is a fictional character that was popular in Victorian-era melodrama and was also known as "The Demon Barber of Fleet Street." He would dispatch unwary patrons in his barber shop by pulling a lever and having the barber chair they were in drop into a pit. They would then be cut up with his straight razor and served in pies sold in by his co-conspirator, Mrs Lovett.

Marks the first time a Doctor Who (2005) episode gets a theatrical screening in Iceland, since even the so-called 'universal' screening of the 50th Anniversary special did not make it to Icelandic theatres. It's also the first 'non-special', i.e. plain episode of the show to get an international cinema screening.

A black and white screener of this episode made its way onto the internet nearly a month before airing.

This is the first episode in the new series and the first overall since the first episode in the "The Leisure Hive" story to première in August.

As Half-Face Man awakens in "heaven" a sound, like the faint echo of the infamous cloister bell can be heard in the distance.

Digital raindrop removal was used in the scene where Clara and the Doctor emerged in Glasgow (actually Cardiff), since it was a brisk, overcast day that saw a small downpour during filming. Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman used insulated coats to stay warm when they were not in the middle of filming.

Missy's look was based after the titular Mary Poppins (1964).

Near the day of filming where Peter Capaldi's official costume would be seen in public for the first time, the BBC released an official publicity shot to deter a press leak.

The BBC gave this episode a world tour in seven countries over twelve days.

When the newly regenerated Doctor is confused by the English accents of everyone in the room, Madame Vastra adopts a subtle Scottish accent (to reflect the new Doctor's Scottish accent). Neve McIntosh, who plays Madame Vastra with an refined English accent, is from Paisley, Scotland.

When the Doctor hands the droid a silver platter with which to study its reflection, he can be seen studying his own on the back of the polished surface, as he is still acclimatizing to his new face.

This episode (and its script) was leaked online when stored on a publically-accessible server, with incomplete CGI, watermarks and timecodes in black-and-white, prompting a plea from BBC Worldwide not to watch it. The rough cut held the nomenclature, "Prepared for Marcelo Camargo at Drei Marc".

First appearance of Courtney.

When Clara is trying to get the sonic screwdriver back to the doctor and almost misses, the Doctor says "It's at times like this I miss Amy."This is a reference to Amy Pond, the 11th Doctor's first companion.

The outfit that the new Doctor chooses bears a striking resemblance to the one worn by Peter Capaldi during his November 24th, 2009 appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (2005).

The Twelfth Doctor choosing Caecilius's face is is the third time a Time Lord chose the face of a person that they previously encountered for their regeneration. The first was Romana choosing Princess Astra in Doctor Who: Destiny of the Daleks: Episode One (1979) (both played by Lalla Ward), and the second was the Sixth Doctor choosing Commander Maxil in Doctor Who: The Caves of Androzani: Part Four (1984) (both Colin Baker).

When the Tardis lands on the bank of the River Thames, there is a metal frame that looks like the internal structure of the upper part of a Dalek's body, where the gun and plunger are mounted.

This episode takes place in the 1890s.

The Doctor discovers that the cyborgs made the restaurant out of parts from a spaceship called SS Marie Antoinette, which is a sister ship to the SS Madame de Pompadour. In "The Girl in the Fireplace", also written by Steven Moffat. The SS Madame de Pompadour was a 51st century spaceship, ran by clockwork robots, which the Tenth Doctor, Rose and Mickey discovered had repaired the ship by using parts from the ship's crew. The robots were also using time windows to stalk 18th century French aristocrat Madame de Pompadour, which the ship was named after, as her head was required to complete the repairs of the ship.

When the Doctor was ripping off the face of the cyborg while in the larder when Clara reached back, the face was a mask of Matt Smith.

Peter Capaldi's predecessor Matt Smith makes a surprise cameo as The Eleventh Doctor.
