Doctor Who: 10 Most-Viewed Scenes On YouTube Ranked Worst To Best

8. Vincent Van Gogh Visits The Gallery (Vincent And The Doctor)

Views: 14.0 million

From the least-viewed scene on our list to the most-viewed scene on our list, this beautiful moment from the end of Series 5's Vincent And The Doctor is a prime candidate for the most tearjerking sequence in the show's history.

It kicks off with the Eleventh Doctor, Amy Pond, and Vincent van Gogh materialising in modern-day Paris, before the Doctor takes Vincent inside the Musée d'Orsay to show him that his paintings will be remembered long after he is gone.

Overwhelmed by the emotion of it all, Vincent quickly wells up and begins to cry, and most of the time... so do the viewers at home! The scene doesn't quite have the same oomph without all the excellent character work leading up to it - hence why it's not higher on our list - but even when viewed on its own, it's still hugely powerful stuff.

Bonus points for an excellent Bill Nighy speech and a superb song choice.
