Chronology

Within the series' narrative, the Doctor is a centuries-oldalienTime Lordfrom the planetGallifreywhotravels in timeand space in theTARDIS,frequently withcompanions.At the end of life, the Doctorregenerates;as a result, the physical appearance and personality of the Doctor changes. Smith's incarnation is a quick-tempered but compassionate character whose youthful appearance is at odds with his more discerning and world-weary temperament. Preceded in regeneration by theTenth Doctor(David Tennant), he is followed by theTwelfth Doctor(Peter Capaldi).

This incarnation's main companions includedAmy Pond(Karen Gillan), her husbandRory Williams(Arthur Darvill) and the mysteriousClara Oswald(Jenna-Louise Coleman). He also frequently appeared alongsideRiver Song(Alex Kingston), a fellow time traveller with whom he shared a romantic storyline, and he was the last Doctor to appear alongside the long-serving companionSarah Jane Smith(Elisabeth Sladen) prior to the actress' death, featuring in two episodes of the spin-off programmeThe Sarah Jane Adventures.

Casting

edit

The Doctor is a very special part, and it takes a very special actor to play him. You need to be old and young at the same time, a boffin and an action hero, a cheeky schoolboy and the wise old man of the universe. As soon as Matt walked through the door, and blew us away with a bold and brand new take on the Time Lord, we knew we had our man.

Executive producer and head writerSteven Moffaton Smith's casting.[3]

David Tennant announced at theNational Television Awardson 29 October 2008 that he would be quitting the show, in 2010, because he felt that the four years he spent portraying the Doctor was enough.[4]At the time,BBC Newspublished thatPaterson Joseph,who appeared in theDoctor Whoepisodes "Bad Wolf"and"The Parting of the Ways",was thebookmakers' favourite to succeed Tennant,[5]followed byDavid Morrissey,who would be appearing in the 2008 Christmas special, "The Next Doctor".Other candidates includedSean Pertwee,son ofThird DoctoractorJon Pertwee;[6]Russell Tovey,who portrayed Alonso Frame in the 2007 Christmas special, "Voyage of the Damned";[7]andJames McAvoy.[8]

Although Steven Moffat anticipated choosing a middle-aged actor for the new Doctor,[9]Smith was aged 26 when cast, making him the youngest actor to portray the Doctor, three years younger thanPeter Davisonwas at the time he began his role as theFifth Doctor.Show producers were cautious about casting Smith because they felt that a 26-year-old could not play the Doctor adequately; BBC Wales Head of DramaPiers Wengershared the sentiment, but noted that Smith was capable enough to play the role.[10][3][11]Smith's casting in the role was revealed during an episode ofDoctor Who's companion showDoctor Who Confidential,during which he described the role as "a wonderful privilege and challenge that I hope I will thrive on".[3]

Prior to auditioning for the role, Smith had never seenDoctor Who.[12]He prepared for the role by writing his own stories featuring the Doctor, and took special inspiration fromPatrick Troughton's portrayal of theSecond Doctor.[13][14][15]

Character

Costume

edit
The Eleventh Doctor's first costume

The Eleventh Doctor spends most of his first full episode, "The Eleventh Hour",in the tattered remains of the Tenth Doctor's clothing, leading young Amelia Pond to nickname him" the Raggedy Doctor. "

The Doctor's initial outfit, chosen within the narrative of "The Eleventh Hour" from an array of clothes found in a hospital, is a browntweedjacket with elbow patches,bow tie,braces,blue trousers and black, ankle-high boots. The details of the outfit vary, switching from a braces and bow tie combination in red to the same in blue. In later stories, a greenmoleskinovercoatmakes its way into the Doctor's ensemble, occasionally replacing the Harris jacket. On other occasions he does not wear a coat and wears a bow-tie and dress shirt.

The original tweed jacket is lost in the episode "Flesh and Stone"but replaced in"The Vampires of Venice",then becomes a plot point for the story arc for the season. In the Christmas special"A Christmas Carol",which aired the Christmas after the Eleventh Doctor's first series, he wears his most famous"Prince of Wales check"tweed jacket and a 1950s white dress suit. During season six and seven, he alternates the tweed jacket with the green moleskin overcoat. The tweed jacket makes a final appearance in"The Angels Take Manhattan".

The Eleventh Doctor's second costume, first appearing in "The Bells of Saint John"(2013).

After appearing in Victorian period clothing throughout "The Snowmen",the Doctor's costume changes to generally more somber colors beginning in"The Bells of Saint John"where he exchanges the monk's robes for an eggplant purplecashmerefrock coatand a variety ofwaistcoats,and bow tie. Amy Pond's reading glasses, which were left behind with the Doctor after Amy and Rory's departure in the episode "The Angels Take Manhattan",are also occasionally worn.

In "The Big Bang",the Doctor briefly dons afez,stating, "I wear a fez now, fezzes are cool." This began a running gag with "cool" headgear, including a beigeStetson,a blacktop hat,and the recurring fez, most of which were destroyed by River Song.

In an interview withDoctor Who Magazine,Steven Moffatrevealed that the Eleventh Doctor had an entirely different costume until close to the start of filming. The original look had a swashbuckling feel whichDoctor Who MagazineeditorTom Spilsburydescribed as "a little like somethingCaptain Jack Sparrowwears in thePirates of the Caribbeanmovies ". However, Matt Smith was unhappy with the costume as he felt it reflected how someone else would dress the Doctor, rather than how the Doctor would dress himself. Smith also mentioned in a 2012 interview that his Doctor was going to have a" very long black leather jacket, but it was tooMatrix-style ".[16]The eventual costume, in particular the bow-tie, was influenced by Patrick Troughton'sSecond Doctor,after Matt Smith fell in love with the Troughton storyThe Tomb of the Cybermen.[17]

Personality

edit
Doctor Whofilming, withMatt Smithas the Eleventh Doctor, andKaren GillanasAmy Pond

Steven Moffat describes the Eleventh Doctor as an "old man trapped in a young man's body" and Matt Smith characterizes him as someone with "a lot of blood on his hands" who copes via constant travelling and thrill-seeking.[18][19]

The depictions of the personalities of the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors shared certain similarities[20][21]e.g. both being youthful, energetic, friendly, childlike, "good boyfriend Doctors", as Steven Moffat described them[22]and, according toMark Gatiss"very human Doctors" when compared to other incarnations.[23][24]Like his predecessor, when he first regenerates in the final scene of "The End of Time"(2010), the Eleventh Doctor mistakes himself as a"ginger".He also seems surprised at his longer hair, at first mistaking his new body as female, stating," Hair...I'm a girl! "

Appearances

Television

edit

The Eleventh Doctor first appears in the final scene of "The End of Time"(2010) when his previous incarnation regenerates. Smith debuts fully in"The Eleventh Hour",where he first meetsAmy Pond(Karen Gillan) as a child while investigating a mysterious crack in her wall. Many years later, Amy joins the Doctor as his travelling companion on the eve of her marriage toRory Williams(Arthur Darvill). In "Victory of the Daleks",he is tricked into spawning a new generation ofDaleks.In the two-part story "The Time of Angels"and"Flesh and Stone",he re-encounters future companionRiver Song(Alex Kingston) and his enemies theWeeping Angelsand learns that cracks like the one in Amy's wall are erasing individuals entirely from time and space. After Amy attempts to seduce the Doctor, the Doctor recruits Rory as a second companion from "The Vampires of Venice"up until"Cold Blood",where he is killed protecting the Doctor and is erased from history. The Doctor also confronts his dark side in"Amy's Choice",where he is put through trials by a manifestation of his self-loathing, the Dream Lord (Toby Jones). In the final episodes "The Pandorica Opens"and"The Big Bang",an unknown force makes the TARDIS explode, causing the universe to collapse in on itself. Though he closes the cracks —reversing their effects and preventing the explosion— the Doctor himself is erased from history. River assists Amy in remembering the Doctor back into existence; he returns at her wedding to Rory, and the couple rejoin him as his companions. He next appears later inDeath of the Doctor,a two-part story of spin-off seriesThe Sarah Jane Adventures,alongside former companionsSarah Jane Smith(Elisabeth Sladen) andJo Grant(Katy Manning), while Amy and Rory are on honeymoon.[25]

Series 6in 2011 continues to examine mysteries left unexplained at the end ofSeries 5.[26]In "The Impossible Astronaut"and"Day of the Moon",Amy, Rory and River witness a future version of the Doctor murdered, which they vow to keep a secret from the present-day Doctor as they encounter hypnotic aliens called"the Silence".Eventually, Amy unknowingly lets slip that the Doctor dies in"The Almost People",when it also turns out that she is pregnant and has been kidnapped by the nefariousMadame Kovarian(Frances Barber). In "A Good Man Goes to War",the Doctor calls in old favours from across time and space to raise an army to rescue Amy fromDemons Run,an asteroid in the 52nd century being used as a base by a religious order, but is unable to rescue her child, Melody Pond. The Doctor also learns that Melody—though Rory and Amy's child—is part Time Lord due to being conceived in the TARDIS, and she will grow up to become River Song. In "Let's Kill Hitler",the Doctor encounters a younger iteration of River and learns she has been conditioned by the Silence, explained to be a religious order, to assassinate him. She nearly succeeds using a kiss of poisoned lipstick before Amy convinces her to save his life instead. The Doctor also learns the circumstances of his death from historical records on a time-travelling shape-shifting robot ship called the Teselecta. In"The God Complex",the Doctor leaves Amy and Rory on Earth when he realises Amy'sapotheosisof him endangers their lives. Some time passes before the Doctor is ready to confront his death. In "The Wedding of River Song",he devises an escape by concealing himself within the Teselecta, which is disguised to look like him, to make it seem he is shot and burned as history records. In a doomed alternate reality caused by River's reluctance to shoot the Doctor, the two become married; during the ceremony, she is let in on the Doctor's original plan and helps fake and corroborate his death. The Doctor is then warned by his old friend Dorium Maldovar (Simon Fisher-Becker) that more prophecies still concern him. The Doctor learns he will be asked the oldest question in the universe, "Doctor who?", on the battlefields of Trenzalore; the Silence had intended his death to prevent this.

In the Christmas special "The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe"(2011), the Doctor has Christmas dinner with Amy and Rory, who had been informed by River of his survival. They unite again in theSeries 7premiere "Asylum of the Daleks"(2012), in which the Doctor is erased from the Daleks' memory banks due to the actions ofOswin Oswald(Jenna Coleman), a young woman turned Dalek who had retained her human mind; she subsequently dies. The Doctor then takes Amy and Rory on several adventures, eventually taking them back on as full-time companions in "The Power of Three"before losing them during the events of"The Angels Take Manhattan".The Doctor subsequently" retires "to a secluded lifestyle in Victorian London, until the 2012 Christmas special"The Snowmen,"when he is inspired to save the world by a barmaid/governess called Clara (Coleman) who he considers an ideal companion. Mid-adventure, Clara dies, and when the Doctor sees her tombstone, reading" Clara Oswin Oswald ", he realizes that Oswin and Clara are the same woman in different moments of time. He resolves to find her again in another era. The Doctor succeeds in"The Bells of Saint John",saving a present-day version of Clara Oswald from agents of theGreat Intelligence.He takes her as his companion and attempts to solve the mystery of "the Impossible Girl". The Doctor eventually gets his answer in "The Name of the Doctor"when he is forced by the Great Intelligence to go to Trenzalore, revealed to be the planet on which the Doctor will die. Within the Doctor's tomb, the Great Intelligence uses the dead Doctor's remnants—his disembodied" timestream "—to spread himself across the Doctor's history, turning his victories into defeats. Clara pursues him and is scattered throughout the Doctor's timeline creating Oswin Oswald and Clara Oswin Oswald among numerous other incarnations who undo the Great Intelligence's work. The Doctor has a mournful conversation with River's apparition, giving her closure before entering the timeline to retrieve Clara. However, once he saves her, the Doctor is forced to reveal the existence ofa previous incarnation(John Hurt) who broke the promise represented by the name "Doctor" during theTime Warof his past.[27]

In the show's50th anniversary special,while investigating a strange occurrence beneath London'sNational Gallery,the Doctor encounters his past incarnation who fought in the Time War (John Hurt) as well as hisimmediate previous incarnation(David Tennant). Though the older Doctors berate the 'War Doctor' for his killing both Time Lords and Daleks with a sentient weapon known as the Moment, they ultimately choose to support his decision and forgive themselves for this past atrocity. Led by the Moment into the midst of the Time War, the Doctors realize they have the potential to change its outcome and enlist the aid of their previous incarnations in an uncertain bid to saveGallifreyfrom destruction. They place the planet in stasis and transport it to apocket universe,making it appear to be destroyed. As an effect of time travel, only the Eleventh Doctor will remember saving Gallifrey; he learns from a cryptic curator (played byTom Baker) that his plan worked.[28]In "The Time of the Doctor,"the Doctor is lured to what he learns is the planet Trenzalore to decode what he discovers is a message from the displaced Time Lords through the last remaining crack in the universe: the oldest question in the universe," Doctor who? ". Learning that the verification of his identity would allow the Time Lords to return, the Doctor finds out that the signal caught the attention of an assortment of his enemies, who wish to prevent Gallifrey's return, and the powerful Church of the Papal Mainframe, who wish to destroy the planet and avoid the possibility of a new Time War. After attempting to send Clara back to her time, the Doctor spends centuries defending the planet from alien incursions. During this time, a faction of the Church led by the Silence breaks away and attempts to avert these events by destroying the Doctor earlier in his timeline, as seen in series 5 and 6. The Doctor also reveals to Clara he has no regenerations remaining and will likely die in the siege. The siege escalates into all-out war and after centuries pass, only the Daleks remain. Though the heavily aged Doctor anticipates his predestined death on the battlefields of Trenzalore, Clara convinces the Time Lords to give the Doctor a new regeneration cycle as he uses a fiery blast of regenerative energy to destroy the Dalek mothership. The Doctor regains his youth before retiring to the TARDIS to complete the process. He hallucinates a final farewell to Amy Pond and delivers a eulogy to his present incarnation, before abruptly completing his transition into theTwelfth Doctor(Peter Capaldi). He made a reappearance in "Deep Breath"(2014). While adjusting to the new Doctor, Clara receives a phone call from the Eleventh Doctor made moments prior to their final meeting. He asks her to help his new self and not to be afraid of him.
