These out of context Doctor Who clips show just how brilliantly weird the show really is

The video – taking clips from modern Who and the Doctor Who TV movie – shows how casual viewers, perhaps walking into an episode mid-way, can be greeted by such moments as a dwarf pig being shot down by a panicked group of soldiers, a white horse stalking David Tennant through a spaceship, or even the line "What'cha gonna do? Sucker me to death?" delivered by a man who's shortly suckered to death.

• Peter Capaldi reveals why he’s not on social media
• Peter Capaldi opens up about Doctor Who exit: “To be at the centre of that brand is a lot of work”

And then there’s our favourite no-context clip: Mark Gatiss’s post-anti-ageing-experiment Professor Richard Lazarus kissing his beloved Lady Thaw. It was weird in the actual episode (2007’s The Lazarus Experiment), but impossibly weird if you disregard both character’s backstories.

Let's face it, Whovians. Sure, Doctor Who is a great show. But, gee, is it odd.
