8 Doctor Who Moments The Creators Don't Like
7. Russell T Davies Wishes He'd Changed One Specific Line
The first episode of the 2005 revival, Rose, was a really solid way to bring Doctor Who back to our screens, as proven by the fact that the show is still going 15 years later.
While not perfect, Rose - much like The Day Of The Doctor - is adored by the vast majority of the fanbase, but even still, the man responsible for writing it isn't 100% pleased with every single creative decision he made.
That man is former showrunner and all-round top bloke Russell T Davies, and in an interview published in Doctor Who Magazine #551, he talks about specific lines of dialogue he wishes he could change, singling out a scene from Rose as an example.
The scene is the one where the Ninth Doctor says "lots of planets have a North". When Davies originally wrote this scene, there was an extra line "But not all of them", which was eventually removed. However, Davies now regrets this decision, and during the interview, he says that he would go back and add it in if he could.
It's a minor detail that wouldn't change anything about the episode or the character, so it's actually quite strange that Davies is still hung up on it all these years later. Quite frankly, you'd think he'd be more regretful about the Abzorbaloff or the farting Slitheen.
