1 | CharacterSheet of the UsefulNotes/ComicRelief charity skit ''Recap/DoctorWhoTheCurseOfFatalDeath''. A parody, not even ''remotely'' canon. Written by Creator/StevenMoffat, who lovingly referenced it in episodes on occasion during his run on [[Series/DoctorWho the series itself]]. |
2 | !The Doctor |
3 | * FailedASpotCheck: The reason he quickly ends up in his Twelfth incarnation; |
4 | --> '''Twelfth Doctor''': Oh dear, now look at that! I've gone and used up three whole bodies in under a minute and all because I forgot to ''unplug'' first, that really was terribly ''silly'' of me! |
5 | * {{Retcon}}: That time the Doctor died a few times in quick succession? It was [[Recap/DoctorWho2005CSTheChristmasInvasion later revealed]] in canon that this WOULDN'T have triggered more regenerations, as a Time Lord can heal any injuries sustained in the first few hours after regeneration. |
6 | * WeHardlyKnewYe: All except Atkinson's Doctor get very little screentime as they clumsily cycle through their regenerations rapidly. |
7 | * TheWorldIsAlwaysDoomed: The Doctor has saved every planet in the known universe a minimum of 27 times. |
8 | |
9 | !!Ninth Doctor (Creator/RowanAtkinson) |
10 | [[quoteright:100:[[http://www.redscharlach.co.uk/ https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/minifataldoctor1_9568.jpg]]]] |
11 | * CrazyPrepared: The first half of the special can be summed up as him and the Master having a massive GambitPileUp involving them pre-emptively going back in time to bribe the architect of the building they currently stand in to their specifications. |
12 | * DeadpanSnarker: Atkinson, very much in the mould of the later Series/{{Blackadder}}s. |
13 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: Not quite as pretty as some of his successors below, but he definitely has a Creator/PaulMcGann Doctor haircut going on and manages to form a long term relationship with his latest companion. |
14 | * OfficialCouple: He and his companion, Emma (Julia Sawalha) are engaged. |
15 | * Really700YearsOld: In [[https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Comic+Relief%3a+Who%27s+after+your+cash%3b+JOIN+THE+DOC%27S+RETURN+ON+A...-a060395111 "Who's After Your Cash"]], the Ninth Doctor states that he is over 800 years old. |
16 | * RetiredBadass: Intends to become one, since he's saved every planet at least 27 times by this point. |
17 | * {{Retirony}}: The story is set off when the Doctor wants to tell the Master that he's retiring to marry his companion. |
18 | * StarfishLanguage: He is (almost) fluent in the language of the people of Terserus. Said people communicate exclusively through [[ToiletHumour farts of differing pitch]]. |
19 | |
20 | !!Tenth Doctor (Creator/RichardEGrant) |
21 | * DistractedByMyOwnSexy: "Result! Cute, sexy, and lick-the-mirror-handsome!" |
22 | * LargeHam: Engages in HamToHamCombat against the Master. |
23 | * LecherousLicking: Is so [[DistractedByMyOwnSexy distracted by his own sexy]] that he licks his reflection in the mirror. |
24 | * SlipIntoSomethingMoreComfortable: Mocked with the Doctor saying it just after his regeneration. |
25 | * TooDumbToLive: Both this Doctor and his successor die in quick succession "all because I forgot to unplug first." |
26 | |
27 | !!Eleventh Doctor (Creator/JimBroadbent) |
28 | * CannotTalkToWomen: Humorously, the Master's etheric beam locators get the same response out of him. |
29 | * TooDumbToLive: Both this Doctor and his predecessor die in quick succession "all because I forgot to unplug first." |
30 | |
31 | !!Twelfth Doctor (Creator/HughGrant) |
32 | * DeadlyDeferredConversation: The Twelfth Doctor's last words to Emma are, "I'll explain later." This being the tail end of a RunningGag where something ridiculous happens and the Doctor goes, "I'll explain later." |
33 | * DeathEqualsRedemption: Of a sort. Twelve's seemingly final death inspires the Master and the Daleks to renounce their evil ways. It's all surprisingly poignant for a parody. |
34 | * InvincibleHero: Gets hit with an ultra-deadly energy wave that should kill even a Time Lord instantly, so ''definitely'' no more regenerations ''ever''. He regenerates anyway. |
35 | * LastRequest: Well, before the "I'll explain later" gag: "Look after the universe for me. I've put a lot of work into it." |
36 | ** A quote so iconic that the ''[[Creator/PeterCapaldi actual]]'' Twelfth Doctor would reuse it in the canonical series. |
37 | * MrFanservice: Noted to be even sexier than Richard E. Grant's Doctor. |
38 | |
39 | !!Thirteenth Doctor (Creator/JoannaLumley) |
40 | [[quoteright:100:[[http://www.redscharlach.co.uk/ https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/minilumleydoc1_1300.jpg]]]] |
41 | * AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She falls for the Master, of all people. She notes that she suddenly finds him more attractive now and the two ride off into the sunset. |
42 | * BuxomBeautyStandard: She's pretty buxom and her cleavage gets many MaleGaze shot as well as noticed by The Master. |
43 | * GenkiGirl: She seems to be the most energetic and excitable Doctor in the special. |
44 | * GenderBender: The first Time Lord sex change, but far from the last. |
45 | * JumpingTheGenderBarrier: The Master is very taken with the Doctor's new form. |
46 | * ManIFeelLikeAWoman: "I've always wanted to get my hands on one of these!" |
47 | * MsFanservice: Gets many gratuitous cleavage shots, before almost taking one boob out to inspect the "on-switch". |
48 | * PowerPerversionPotential: Only now, after [[TimeAbyss thousands of years]], does the Doctor notice the Sonic Screwdriver comes with three settings. |
49 | * SituationalSexuality: The Doctor conveniently starts liking men as soon as he turns into a woman. |
50 | |
51 | !Emma (Creator/JuliaSawalha) |
52 | * ACupAngst: The Master tries to invoke this by bragging about how big and firm his "Dalek bumps" feel. Emma later seems genuinely envious of the Thirteenth Doctor's new talent. |
53 | * DistractedByTheSexy: Emma's reaction to the Hugh Grant Doctor, "Result!" |
54 | * {{Expy}}: Shares a lot of mannerisms with Third Doctor companion Jo Grant. |
55 | * LiteralMetaphor: [[GenderBender "You're just not the man I fell in love with."]] |
56 | |
57 | !The Master (Creator/JonathanPryce) |
58 | * ActorAllusion: Creator/JonathanPryce starred in an unrelated film about mental patients in the First World War three years prior to this. The name of this film? ''Regeneration''. |
59 | * AffablyEvil: The Master is surprisingly polite and understanding throughout the story, perhaps to set up [[DatingCatwoman the ending twist]]. |
60 | * BestialityIsDepraved: Poor, poor guy. |
61 | * BigBreastPride: He initially takes pride in the size and firmness of his new Dalek bumps. Quickly turns to DCupDistress when everyone thoroughly mocks them. |
62 | * DramaticThunder: Somehow conjures thunder inside his TARDIS to accompany his EvilLaugh. |
63 | * EvilLaugh: Of course. Jonathan Pryce goes all out with this. |
64 | * {{Expy}}: Jonathan Pryce's Master is pretty much the Creator/AnthonyAinley version dialled up (except for his competency, which is dialled down to one). |
65 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: The Master's attempts to trap the Doctor backfire horribly on him, though not [[TimeyWimeyBall always]] through his own fault. His deal with the Daleks, however, is [[OmnicidalManiac as ill-conceived as it sounds]]. |
66 | * InsistentTerminology: They're not breasts, they're Dalek bumps. |
67 | * IsThisThingStillOn: The Master has ''serious'' trouble with closing the communication channel on cue early on. When the Doctor calls him out on it, he quickly claims IMeantToDoThat. |
68 | * LargeHam: Engages in HamToHamCombat against the Tenth Doctor. |
69 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: TheMaster. Ultimately, [[SubvertedTrope subverted]]: |
70 | -->'''Thirteenth Doctor:''' Tell me, why ''do'' they call you "The Master"?\ |
71 | '''The Master:''' [[HappilyEverAfter I'll explain later.]] |
72 | * RuleOfThree: The Master falls into the sewers of Terserus thrice, each time taking 312 years to climb back out and growing ancient and repugnantly filthy in the process. |
73 | * SissyVillain: |
74 | -->'''Tenth Doctor:''' I remember you, don't I?\ |
75 | '''The Master:''' And you still fear me, Doctor.\ |
76 | '''Tenth Doctor:''' You're the camp one.\ |
77 | '''The Master:''' I am ''not'' camp.\ |
78 | '''Tenth Doctor:''' Oh yeah? Nice tits. |
79 | * TheSlowPath: The Master has to do this to get out of the sewers. Three times. |
80 | |
81 | !The Daleks |
82 | * BizarreAlienSenses: Only the Daleks would join the Master on his quest for revenge, since the Daleks have no noses (and he'd just escaped from a sewer). |
83 | * ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: The Daleks announce that they're going to exterminate the Master... and promptly end up shooting the Doctor and the Zektronic generator instead. |
84 | * OffTheShelfFX: These Daleks are made and played by FanFilm producers, specifically those of ''Devious'' (which is most notable for its final scenes with '''Creator/JonPertwee''' as the Third Doctor). You can clearly see the actors inside them in some shots. |
85 | * ScienceFictionWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale: The Dalek's new superweapon will enable them to take over the universe in minutes. How, you ask? We'll explain later. |
86 | * WeMeetAgain: A Dalek says it to the Ninth Doctor. |
