Just found this vid today and... am totally and utterly blown away. It's like you reached inside my head and made a vid of *my* Doctor. Or rather, all the meta-ness that I forever carry around with me whenever I think of him.

I wrote an essay last year after the S3 finale (What if God was one of us) and I see so much that I tried to say in that essay in this vid, but far more succinctly put and *so* much more hardhitting.

Because there is that wonderful duality to the Doctor: On the one hand he's just faking it - he's just a guy with flaws and weaknesses like everyone else, but he's built this whole persona/shield up around himself. And on the other he's this:

The Master: “What did it feel like though? Two mighty civilisations, burning. Tell me. How did that feel?”
The Doctor: “Stop it!”
The Master: “You must have been like God.”


Sorry, I am completely incoherent and have far too many thoughts. Mostly just 'Wow!'
