What aspects of this scene do you think an audience might enjoy? List at least three things and explain why the audience would enjoy each aspect.
The mild humour and sarcasm bring a warm tone to the scene.
The sci-fi genre is interesting itself and it makes the viewer even more interested.
The pace of the scene not only adds onto the humour, it also adds on to the feeling of the scene.
How is this scene constructed to tell the audience the history of Doctor Who? Think about the script, camerawork and acting.

Dramatic/ exaggerated acting.
