Video Corner: Goodbyes, Wands & More

Ever wondered what would happen if Doctor Who met The Thick Of It? Or if Gollum met Harry Potter? Wonder no more...
In these Video Corner feature articles, we pride ourselves on picking the most relevant and often hilarious entertainment-themed footage that YouTube has to offer. This week is no different in this regard, nor is our selection of different entertainment franchises any less diverse- below, you'll find Doctor Who, The Thick of It, The Dark Knight Rises, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings and the Xbox One all represented in fine form.

Without further ado, then, here's our latest round-up of the most important, funniest and grandest video offerings YouTube currently has for your viewing delight:
DOCTOR WHO CREDITS, IRON MAN 3 STYLE- As any viewers of Iron Man 3 will know, the third instalment in the acclaimed Marvel film franchise boasted a rather stunning closing credits sequence. With that in mind, a new unofficial YouTube member has elected to create a great rendition of that sequence using the names and shots of the Doctor Who production team, working the wonders glimpsed below...
WILL THE XBOX ONE SUCK?- College Humor are always worth following simply for the wealth of hilarious videos they regularly present their fans, but for now at least, this one is worth a watch. Filmed before the so-called 'Xbox One-Eighty', this gut-wrenching assessment of Microsoft's Xbox One and its various controversial DRM policies should not and cannot be missed under any circumstances!
BATMAN SAYS HIS GOODBYES- Another of College Humor's plentiful video offerings, this one focuses on Christopher Nolan's final Batman film. The question posed here is as such- what if, as the Dark Knight readied his Batwing to take a nuclear bomb out of Gotham's vicinity, he realised there were a few pressing matters to clarify before his supposed demise? The revelations of such a discussion prove to be brilliantly comedic, and any Caped Crusader fans here must spare a moment of their time to see the results.
GOLLUM MEETS HARRY POTTER- This next video is created by James Walters, the only man other than Andy Serkis who can provide an eerily uncanny replication of the voice of Gollum. In this case, Walters plays both the Boy Wizard and Smeagol's alter-ego, as the two iconic fantasy characters' worlds collide when Gollum gets more than he bargained for upon invading Harry's home...
DOCTOR WHO MALCOLM TUCKER CROSSOVER- In light of Peter Capaldi's recently announced casting as the Twelfth Doctor, a huge selection of videos focusing on Capaldi's previous acclaimed character of Malcolm Tucker have come to light. The best of these? This inspired crossover piece that melds together the worlds of Doctor Who and The Thick of It seamlessly- see it to believe it!
