10 Doctor Who Bloopers You Need To See

It must be very frustrating for the Doctor to so often be ignored when giving out serious, life-saving instructions. "Don't follow me under any circumstances" usually results in a companion following him, and very nearly dying.

Of course, in-universe, the Doctor usually responds to this ignorance in a calm and forgiving manner, but in reality, that's not always the case. Just ask Sylvester McCoy.

During a scene in his final serial, Survival, the Seventh Doctor instructs Ace and everyone with them to "Stay still!" so as not to provoke an attack by the Cheetah People. Of course, nobody listens, and they all start to run away.

In one take of this sequence, McCoy can be seen, rather humorously, losing his temper at the fact that nobody is listening to him and begins to ad-lib his lines, adding some rather fruitful language before throwing his jacket (and then himself) onto the floor.

This goes on for a good 20 seconds too. His commitment to the bit is admirable, and even earns him some applause from the cast and crew at the end. Marvellous.
