doctor who - the eleventh doctor

( o5 video )

[ The video starts with a pan in on someone wearing tight trousers and big, stomping boots. Whoever it is, skips along three pavement slabs, and then hops to the middle of the next one, stands on his tiptoes and wavers. ]

Oh come on, that's not the right point. Nine hundred years old and I should be able to skip a point fourteen. What kind of person am I? Honestly.

[ It's very much the Doctor's voice, and he sighs, starts jumping again. ] I don't know why, but I just can't get the number out of my head. [ 1, 2, 3, wavering slightly on the fourth again. ] I made three cups of tea today, filled up the fourth up only a little bit. Good thing too, I like to think even I can't drink that much tea. A full fourth might've been pushing it. Maybe that's why I can't keep still.

[ Skip. Hop. Jump. Wobble. ] Oh c'mon. This is awful. Why can't I get this right at all?

Yes, apparently. I seem to be fairly famous around these parts.

Oh. Oh. The Merlin, oh, is it Christmas?

[This smile? It's a little flustered.]

Maybe?

Wait until I tell Amelia.

[ Bouncing a little. ] You're younger than I thought you'd be.

How old did you think I'd be?

Well, you have a beard in all of your pictures. Apart from that nude carving hidden in the Great High Tam's house. She thought the hair would get in the way of the err -- aesthetic.
