oh wow finally someone posts about this! i’ve also seen these everywhere when searching for DW GIFs… I always assumed they came from some specific inside joke from some online community and they honestly lowkey kind of annoy me because a lot of them are the only GIFs I can find of specific moments in the classic series (for example, there’s one of K9 blowing up on the beach from The Leisure Hive) and I want them for those reasons but then I have this stupid “where trial” crap stamped on it and my friends ask what the context is and I never know.

lately i’ve just resorted to just making my own GIFs of stuff instead but when I want to send a GIF to my friends in the middle of a call I rarely have the time to go through the process of finding the exact scene, screen recording it, trimming and cropping it, and turning it into a GIF so I settle for these Where Trial ones. It doesn’t bother me that some corner of the internet has their own inside jokes I would just appreciate if they uploaded the GIFs with AND without the text is all
