/who/ - Doctor Who General

No. It was a mixture of incompetence, being out of touch, being out of ideas, and spiting fans who spoke against what the show had become.

flux was actually kino and you can't change my mid

My expectations going in to this epsiode were rock bottom, the episode delivered on those expectations. I liked the 13 cameo more than I thought I would.
Omega and the Rani were wasted

Last time i seen so many /who/ threads was when ALL THIRTEEN came up. What the fuck???

Luv you Yaz!

I hope Rose has just become Jackie as played by Billie Piper playing The Doctor.

Cuck mentality. As a kid I wanted to be the Doctor.

I just can't take it anymore lads

The shitty 2000's pop music, the over the top gayness, the shitty redesigns, the constant splitting of the Doctor into clones as shitty workarounds, the pacing, everything its not good enough its just so fucking bad.

(Victor reaches for Elton, then gets distracted by a wind and a familiar sound. The Tardis materialises.)

DOCTOR: Someone wants a word with you.

ROSE: You upset my mum.

ELTON: Great big absorbing creature from outer space, and you're having a go at me?

ROSE: No one upsets my mum.

VICTOR: At last. The greatest feast of all. The Doctor.

DOCTOR: Interesting. A sort Absorbatrix? Absorbaclon? Absorbaloff?

VICTOR: Absorbaloff, yes.

ROSE: Is it me or is he a bit Slitheen?

DOCTOR: Not from Raxacoricofallapatorius, are you?

VICTOR: No, I'm not. They're swine. I spit on them. I was born on their twin planet.

DOCTOR: Really? What's the twin planet of Raxacoricofallapatorius?

VICTOR: Clom.

DOCTOR: Clom.

VICTOR: Clom. Yes. And I'll return there victorious, once I possess *points at Rose* her travelling machine.

DOCTOR: Well, that's never going to happ... wait, what the fuck!?

We've bi-generated

This. I think people were so mad at the previous two seasons that they couldn't enjoy it being a fun adventure story.

Good fuck that faggot. What about the troon that made the 6 hour Chibnall hate video, he used to make videos with Stubagful but I haven't seen any for a while, did he finally ack out?

is remembered as the overly fruity gay doctor that starts crying and gives up at the slightest setback until his oddly premature departure

bit racist

How the fuck did he contact The Doctor in the first place? Shit made no sense.

Reminder that Piper was never confirmed as the Sixteenth Doctor. It’s all misdirection to drum up discourse for a dying franchise.

I wanted to be a Dalek.
I ran around with paper attached to a hula hoop with a bowl on my head and holding a plunger screaming Exterminate.
I miss the 90's

Please don't remind me of kino like that

They both deserved so much better ill never forgive chib and russ for their crimes against humanity

Omega and the Rani were wasted

this, jesus fucking christ.
they change scripts and such, right? during some kind of casting, rehearsal, did they not realise the Rani lady was doing a good job of being pantomime evil experiments lady (i.e. the Rani)?

fucking USE HER. drop Omega entirely.

I kinda feel bad for Ncuti.

His Doctor died alone with the hope for a child of his own ripped from him.

Before the boggening.

imagine all the AI PORN is coming with Rose as the Doctor

How the fuck did he contact The Doctor in the first place?

He used the most powerful force in the universe: the magic power of gay love

I don't understand how all this gets greenlit. How did nobody said "this all seems a bit shit"? How did Disney want to fund this? Is Russel that powerful?

I assume he wasn't real, was jus the Rani(s) pushing more doubt on the Doctor to speed things up

Actually depressing for both the black and gay communities.

Rogue had Kylie Minogue on his Spaceify playlist, yet Kyiie(TM) played a character in the show! curious!

Tharries now a confirmed hater!

I think RTD did this to purposely shit in the face of fans. Fans have been asking for the Rani and Omega to return for years. He does it, totally redesigns Omega, and kills both him and the Rani off in one minute.
Then he makes the 15th Doctor commit suicide, and he regenerates into Billie Piper.

Even the sycophants on Twitter hate it. Oh well. At least Doctor Who is over forever.

Its good yeah

Dan was enjoyable.
The guy from pirates of the carriebean was great
The Sontarans were on form and great
the CIA-esque weeping Angel operatives were neat too

Swarm and Azure were interesting.

Visuals were nice.

Its the only Jodie season I like.

Rusty somehow found a way to fuse the issues of the Star Wars prequels and sequels into one, maniac
Speak for yourselves, I wanted to be a Dalek

Jodie is cute. CUTE!

What did Russell mean by this?

The night before Pride Month no less!

youtube.com/watch?v=4_3oU-Z4Vxo

anyone have a link to jodie's scene? i don't have access to the episode

If 16 isn't the doctor then who is she?

Rose Tylah, I...

he's off to have a much better career. guy is going to be minted.

Dugga Doo status?

Season 3 announcement soon

Imagine throwing both of these motherfuckers into a time crack.

She was always a combination of cute & weird looking

Now his cameo is done he can be honest about the show

Odious little toad

Make two season arcs about the Doctor missing his grand-daughter.

Have said grand-daughter show up for a cameo in season 2.

Proceed to say in the finale the Doctor not only doesn't have kids from last season, is basically sterile so said grand-daughter shouldn't even exist.

Introduce a baby that's half human half time lord

Proceed to have the doctor change time making his own child purely human cucking himself and Susan out of existance.

Russell better hope Ford doesn't kick it next year.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about how they butchered Omega. He wasn't a tyrant, just a scientist who got trapped in an antimatter universe and went nuts as a result. Also they didn't give him his sick ass suit.

Yes, me from the past?

So what now? Is the show over?

no i just changed my mind completely overnight lol

She surely is. The only way she isn't is if she somehow hijacked 15's regeneration because of TARDIS shenanigans.

Shot dead in The Bronx

Nuwho is just a PTSD war veteran getting progressively zestier as an unhealthy coping mechanism.

Billie Piper

introducing

THAT'S NOT HOW WORDS WORK

Neither of those twats are the Doctor.

He hasn't committed to the idea yet because the episode is unwritten.
I assume we'll know for sure by the time Children In Need rolls around and he'll decide to confirm she's the Doctor because he has no other option.

Status

Doo'd

Out of a LOT that was bad, the top 2 were:

Time lords are sterile

Wish for no more wishes

The second being a total cop-out - 'I want imfinite wishes', but in reverse? Fucking seriously?
Oh, and the crab Omega was better than what we actually got.
And the Jodie appearance was laughable, making ZERO difference to anything.

Gotta love the wiki arguing whether the Sixteenth Doctor looks like Rose or when we technically aren't even sure if she's the Doctor.

Another shitshow of a finale

rani plot speedrun to kill her off

actually no reason for the doctor to fight her? She was going to leave earth alone

Omega appears and is killed within 5 seconds by the GPS which is apparently a gun now

rest of the runtime is the writer creaming over space babies

doctor kills himself pointlessly, don’t know why he couldn’t die fighting omega but omega literally stands there

jodie Whittaker is back to prove she wasn’t the most forgettable Doctor

Absolutely dogshit

REAL QUESTION

How was the Eurovision episode the most expensive?

Today's episode was far more complex.

Why isn't Ncuti there?

Even in a fantasy scenario where RTD gets shitcanned and the BBC asked one of us to write the next season and fix the series, I don't know how you get out of Piper as the Doctor. The only natural idea I have is to draw a parallel to Romana 'trying on regenerations' before settling on Romana II, but with no one else in the TARDIS to say "So, what do you think?" to and have them reject it, that wouldn't work.

Uhh sorry, I'm losing your signal. *crumbles a paper bag with his hand and then hangs up*

Youtube commenters are VERY HAPPY
youtube.com/watch?v=WgGnnN6KmB4

youtube.com/watch?v=dBmUkwfg6Z8&ab_channel=Matrixlord212

Think he liked it?

spends the whole of next season playing with her tits and wanking as it's a dream come true

Wasn't it spelled out for you my friend?
Time Lords are Sterile and Bi-Regeneration is a way for them to continue.
15 and 16 were never the Doctor. Tennant's still the Doctor.
We're in the era of Valeyard Who now

She is. It's just such a bad decision that people are coping that it's some epic le twist

Omega enjoys life again walking around smiling in fives form on earth. Nuanced and symapthetic portrayal.

rtd : lets make him a giant angry skelly crawling out of a portal then shoot him 5 seconds later.

Ncuti > Tennant

...will turn into you some day. I hope that's not weird, or anything, haha, I just really like your face and body? But not in a creepy way haha. In fact, I'll bring up the age a bit, mess around with the face, just to freak people out. Do I have your consent?

Lots of CGI.
Celebrity cameos.
Lots of background extras.
Commissioning songs.

Who is the next show runner? Is russel for land and sea spin off?

looks like this episode was a punch in the teeth for him

The thing with Omega in this episode was that he had completely degenerated into what we saw. He wasn't truly himself, just the legend of a mad god brought to life.

99.9% of the viewers probably haven't seen his episodes and the remaining 0.1% probably don't care that much. He's a time lord with a cool name and that's where his interest ends (much like the Rani)

Nothing in this made ANY sense.

Ahem

Series 1, 4, 5, 9 and Flux are the only good seasons of the revival.

right after the rani admonishes the doctor for fetishizing humans

the doctor is now AGP

Bravo RTD.

RTD is such a fucking hack lmao

heartily kek'd

At last, the first chinky Doctor! Seriously, this is the closest we're gonna get to the Japanese mommy Doctor so you'd better all appreciate this.

holy overexplaining, Batman!

(not you, the show)

I could understand that if they were talking about how in 1960s Doctor Who the Doctor had not absorbed the Ian-type role, but come Third-onwards surely you would just want to be the Doctor. The only possible idea I can think about why you would instead think about being a companion rather than the Doctor is you are/have gone through puberty and you are thinking about yourself as a companion fucking the Doctor's female companions - which RTD was certainly not.

Billie Piper will regenerate into Adam Rickitt.

She unironically looks like that Katie woman who had acid thrown in her face

Is russel for land and sea spin off?

It's Russell and Pete McTighe

Imagine becoming literally your ex girlfriend because this what just happened.

you now realise that 14 is going to reappear in the spin-off finale

ngl it would be based in a twisted sort of way if both Tom and Carol died before the year was out in order to spiritually bury this show. Not so much a suicide pact rather a dying-of-old-age pact.

Series 2 > Series 9

This was complete bullshit btw. The off the cuff explanation of ‘the underworld is a myth SO HE BECAME HIS MYTH’ was so contrived

she is the same age as Jodie Whittaker.

Other than Capaldi, Billie Piper will be the only NuWho Doctor who has not regenerated from or into David Tennant (or will she?)

Anyone else remember when Mickey got ate by a bin?
Those were the days.

Are 14 and 16 going to fuck and make some weird incest Doctor?

RTD should've died instead of his husband.

Regeneration is a trans metaphor

It's not the most stupendously stupid part of the episode, it's an unfortunate part of the 'continuity doesn't matter anymore' that Chibnall sort of started and RTD is doubling down on. If anyone brings back Omega in the future they will probably ignore this episode just as much as the episode ignores who Omega actually is.

Billie!

it's like K-9 in The Sarah Jane Adventures. they don't have the rights to Omega, but if a fantasy-imaginary-wish form of Omega shows up, for less than two minutes of screentime, that's all above-board.

Why not become clara though? she's so sexy, i'd be fingering myself constantly while slouched by a mirror to see my clara face if I was the Doctor.

Billie is a botox downgrade

they will fuck and make the valeyard

pining over a girl so badly that you change your gender and try to turn into her

This is autogynephilia. The show actually just trooned out.

Doctor regenerated into Piper

INTRODUCTING BILLIE PIPER

She's kicked into space, the bigenerated doctor behind her smiles.

INTRODUCTING SCOTT ADKINS AS THE DOCTOR

So if Timelords are sterile, how does Susan exist?

Vicious spawn

Well her name is Piper
probably related

Omega only shows up in the episode for like, a max of 3-4 minutes.
In retrospect, outside of the Rani wanting Timelord DNA to yoink and rebirth the timelords, there was really 0 reason Omega even needed to be apart of this script.

Holy shit this is literally that ancient ROSE LOVED DRUGS meme. We fucking did this, /who/. This is on all our heads!

She surely is.

Not having 'As the Doctor' certainly has me wondering what's up.

Purely based on how this is coming out and one guy I know from uni who works there, I think Bad Wolf Studios is staffed by people who worship the ground Rusty walks on

LOOMS
O
O

S

The Doctor is asexual. they confirmed this episode Thirteen COULDN'T be gay for Yaz.

it was John Smith who got Belinda preggers, not the Doc.

Remember when the General regenerated into a black woman? Those were the days.

So is that Dr Who finally dead?

I stopped caring after they put a woman in. Surely the gay cunt killed it hard for normal audiences.

magically guaranteed happiness for the rest of his natural life

sworn nemesis commits suicide

Conrad won in a way that no villain has ever won in the history of the show

It’ll have to be like Tennant Part Deux where she gets one special and dies at the end to make way for the Seventeenth Doctor. Man, the Doctor is absolutely speedrunning this regeneration cycle.

I never actually considered myself a fan of this show but I did watch and enjoy a fair number of the episodes back in the early 2000s, it's pretty jarring that they're so out of ideas that they're rehashing those now. The original series ran for 26 years, it's time to let the new series go and let it lie for another decade.

They'll bring Jenna back but they'll wait until she's 60

Pray BBC and Disney greenlight a season 3 before Ford kicks it, so that Russel may finally answer it.

So When does 14 become 15 to be the other side of 14 by going the long way round?

Poppy bigenerates, 'daughter' is metaphorical in the same way Mrs Flood explained it.

dude RTD shifted present-day Earth one year in the futur in S1 then immediately forgot about it. NuWho has never cared about continuity.
RTD also said multiple times in his first era that he didn't care at all about the 13 regeneration limit.

Fucking kek.

The original series ran for 26 years,

It only "ended" because the head of the BBC at the time hated the show

This show sucks so fucking much i actually felt nostalgia when Jodie showed up. That's so fucking sad.

It's to give you something to talk about. RTD is still good at finding ways to get people talking about the show (even if he's incapable of making the show worth watching)

They also made another reference to destroyed Earth, which not only didn't happen, but couldn't ever have happened.

To be frank with you even the parts you were casually watching were probably often either adapting ideas from the extended media or just redoing concepts (often worse) from Classic.

Doctor in multiple incarantions talks about his family, being a dad and grandad

RTD I haven't had my kids yet, oh, we're sterlile. This is just as bad as the timeless child desu.

In a way, we're all The Doctor's children.

Ncuti's Doctor will be complete forgotten. He's not the first black Doctor (or even the first gay). He'll be a "fun fact" as the Doctor that turned from David Tennant into Billie Piper

The doctors daughter obviously. Georgia moffat

How long was Shooty the Doctor for in setting? Like a year and a half? Why do RTDs Doctors have such ridiculously short lifespans?

They probably just forgot.

Would you a Rani?

I haven't watched this show in about 5 years.
I haven't even seen this episode or know what happened.
Is it true they made Billie Piper a Doctor or just memes?
Doesn't matter desu, I'm already review bombing it.

Was bigeneration 'explained' further?

13-14-15-16 is really fucking with my perception of time. am I old or young? I actually don’t know

she's the granddaughter of the Other who was the Doctor before Time Lords became sterile.

R2D > Chibnall

I never had any care for RTD's first go as showrunner either. I'm one of Moffat's top guys and am forever vindicated for being one.

So are the curly haired enbies who watch this show still pretending that it's good or do they hate RTD now?

Ncuti > Tennant!!

Timelords are sterile.

Bi-Regeneration is suggested as a survival mechanism that they evolved with, to insure the timelords in a way have offspring.

That's the explanation given. It's left vague and changeable

He became his own legend

As...a skeleton?

Make it make at least a LITTLE bit of sense!

I don't know how you get out of Piper as the Doctor.

Probably some bullshit with what Ruby said about the niglet "You can't bear the thought of a universe with one person missing", brings Poppy back but also pulls Rose back from Pete's World, they swap places right as 15 regenerates and 16 is trapped over there so we get a special with Billie going back to that universe and then Tennant comes back as 16 because RTD's a creatively bankrupt hack.

Why was May 24th such a big deal when the finale ended up airing on May 31st?
Scheduling fuckery?

Give it time, eventually we'll get the behind the scenes stories of Ncuti being sexually harrassed by the producers

somehow i do not think this is chris chibnall's account.

They got Gallifreyan AIDS
Timey wimey IRL simulator, BRAVO RTD

Yes. It happens because Time Lords are infertile and lost the ability to reproduce naturally.
It's true. They also brought Omega back as a giant zombie. For supposedly the most powerful Time Lord in existence, he got killed in 5 seconds.

I just want a simple era again. no more massive lore changes, just the doctor traveling in the tardis with a companion.

Moffat

caring about continuity

So that leaked picture from a party didn't happen (Belinda in the red dress). So i guess the ending really was completely changed. Absolute shitshow

although perhaps...

He had a cool helmet, so you'd at least keep that if you hadn't lost all competence.

The Doctor didn't even say goodbye to Ruby

They're both ass but one was just kinda preachy and boring while the other is faggot propaganda over-produced slop.

RTD made Time Lords sterile because he as a gay man will not have children

Thoughts on 10 giving birth to Rose Tyler?

I actually do like the idea of Tennant coming back to play a new Doctor every few years until he dies. It’s a funny running gag like they used to do in Star Trek.

I swear to god, I'm going to turn my ideas into fan fiction now.

I just need to invent a new ending that doesn't result in people calling welfare check on me.

I FUCKING FORGOT ABOUT THAT

spend half the season referencing the fact the earth doesn’t exist

but it doesn’t because they fix the universe

also the Wish isn’t magic it’s time shifting the earth or something

At least them giving the wish baby to Ruby’s mum was fun I’m sure she’ll abandon it

Seems like real Chris Chibnall to me

It was obvious it was reshot. The regeneration stuff felt so tacked on.
I just wonder what happened behind the scenes. Ncuti only had 18 episodes.

Cared a fuckton more about continuity than any other nu showrunner at least. He even packed all the toys neatly back in the box for Chibnall by the end of his run.

So what the fuck was this then

I can't wait for the smash-you-over-the head moral.

So every leak was fake except people got right that Doctah will regenerate into Billie Piper?

Who will be after Billie?

Lol if I was showrunner

I'd rewrite the Timeless child as having been a ruse by Tecteun against the other and a flashback would reveal the other looked like William Harntell

Rewrite it so Omega, Rassilon, the Other and Tecteun all worked on creating regeneration. They betrayed the other and then of course later Omega was betrayed. The other was turned into fugitive, then was the Mobius doctors then their memory wiped again and turned back into the original form/Harntell as a boy.

Tecteun instead pretends she found a child and all that shite.

so when 13 set foot on destroyed Gallifrey that wasn't the actual end on the timelords, they were just off screen somewhere unable to breed?

(((Disney))) just can't help themselves. They love to kill franchises.

14 and 16 reverse bi-generate back into 1 Doctor

fucks up the universe so bad that the last 8 years are deleted from space and time

capaldi regenerates into 17

Only way to save this shitshow

wtf Doctor is this what you want me to look like you sick bastard!

If I was a showrunner, I'd just ignore the time lords lore, who cares.

In a double heartbeat

the fantasy is that the Doctor is somehow real, and you get to leave your shitty life living in some muddy hole in Scotland.

No, RTD just rehashed the Master plot from S3, only did it worse. The Rani escaped somehow and went into hiding.

Please just csst my nigga already he needs that career boost

I just wonder what happened behind the scenes

It's kinda obvious. The show has been doing utterly shit. Multiple lowest ever ratings and Disney barely even promoted the second season. The writing is on the wall that Disney are pulling out, so the next season will be 2027 at the earliest. Any agent is telling their "young and upcoming" actor to get the fuck out the show asap

I-is that Ron?

There definitely had to be creative differences. But now he can claim he was the victim of racism and homophobia. Because Whovians are known for their bigotry.

hi Rupert you alright mate?

Yes, I look like this btw.

Taking the appearance of the girl you wanted to fuck/were fucking (it's unclear) does feel a little fucking off, to be honest

So is it Time Ladies have barren wombs, Time Lords are shooting blanks, both, or they're smooth like Barbie dolls down there?

Can we please just have a season of new baddies and cool stories instead of constant references? We need good stories not just callbacks to old things

Is it true they made Billie Piper a Doctor or just memes?

They did, but they're currently denying it for ebin mystery despite showing the Doctor regenerating into her on-screen

That other anon was right though. Doesn't matter if this episode was a schizophrenic mess, casual viewers will love that Billie is back and don't care about lore.

he got his ice cream van. he's fine.

That's Ed Sheeran

Doesn't matter desu, I'm already review bombing it

Based lapsed fan anon

Kalinda Sharma

hmm.

Why can't Doctor Who go back to having like 20 episodes a season like the good ol days?
Maybe because the writing has dried up, they can barely scrape together 8 episodes.
Don't blame budget, Doctor Who has more budget than ever, even before the Disney deal, saying they can't do more episodes due to budget simply gives me the impression they rely solely on spectacle and CGI rotating skyscrapers with laser beams. We have to downsize.

When they confirmed no trannies in Conrad's world I knew he was the best 'villain'. He 100% eliminated a mental illness.

Timelords are sterile

But the Doctor has parents and a grand child?

the doctor has agp and becomes his ex gf

so glad i stopped watching this show after the matt smith era

do nothing

win

He's too powerful

can this show just move on from the fucking Tennant era already? this is embarrassing

Remember when dugga, doo'd? Those were the days.

they enter Pleasure Chambers instead of orgasming. Looming is for the purposes of procreation only, as Omega intended.

Doctor doesn't have parents anymore remember, since the Timeless Child retcon.
As for the grand child, Russell doesn't want you to think about it.
Also just ignore Jenny.

Another thing they FUCKED UP:
This was THE LAST CHANCE to get Carole Ann Ford in a televised role in the show properly.

I thought she was confirmed for this episode?

MAKES NO SENSE.

To be fair isn’t it canon that TL’s take the form of somebody they’ve met in the past. That’s how they explained Capaldi showing up as a guest character during Ten’s saga. The Doctor loved Rose so much he took her appearance.

I am neither angry or disappointment and it makes me sad that I didn't expect anything better.

I finally understand how my parents feel and also possibly God.

No. It’ll be domhall gleeson whatever dude.

The absolute state of the Time Lords now

i assume she's old and they did what they could. i don't even know if she was on any sort of set, or that was green screen.

Poppy was confirmed as 100% human.

Was RTD always this retarded? I swear it was never this bad

at least another 3 years of fanwank before we get a chance for a clean slate Doctor...

I'm so tired bros...

Be sure to watch the celebration of 20 years of nuWho starring David Tennant and Billie Piper next week, anon.

bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002df9f

Here's to another 20 years!

she was wearing long sleeves in her baby onesie. to hide the fact she was wearing the Rani's vortex manipulator/chameleon arch.

They can just say he lied to Belinda and kept it a secret just in case they need to pull Sneed out of the drawer again.

McGann will forever be the last canonical Doctor for me.

This is just as bad as the timeless child desu.

To me it's slightly worse.

Yes

His only big retcon I think was giving the Master a drumbeat in his head, and I don't think it's a big deal. Wiping out Time Lords was a major boon to insulate Doctor's backstory from nonsense.

Carol was genuinely on the TARDIS set. They show her there on Unleashed.

we finally had a chance for a new up-and-coming talented actor to be the Doctor

it's AGAIN just stunt casting with a regeneration gimmick

genuinely the most infuriating bit for me
i really believe the show might've recovered if Nucti was replaced by a truly charismatic guy, but now it's dead for good

It's pretty obvious RTD just made this up as he went along.
They ruined Omega.
They ruined the concept of regeneration.
Also, how is the Doctor "sterile" if he is the Timeless Child? He's not a Gallifreyan.

Even ChatGPT could write a better script.

Remember the leaked transcripts?

Yeah, another 20 years off the air more like.

the Rani had a Time Ring
do you get it, /who/?
DO YOU GET IT?

Belinda is in her thrist trap era

Russell should've just had the Rani clone the Doctor and make the Valeyard, instead of this brain-dead Draugr Omega plot that only lasted 5 minutes.
It would've been a far more fun way for the Rani to actually attempt to get pure time-lord DNA as well as bring it again back around to the Colin Baker years.

God isn't real.

ohh neat. stopped watching those because they were insufferably sugary. all the 'work experience' stuff is probably nice for kids going into filmmaking, but i miss actually hearing some pyrotechnics guy talking about the effects. RIP Confidential.

does she have all her marbles, still? new Companion?

Medical school is expensive, ok?

It could always have happened...somehow.

Except Jodie was completely unaware of it.

Please, please, just have ONE thing that makes sense!

Remember at the start when they said they had a 3 series plan for Ncuti? I'm thinking his agents basically told him to abandon ship as it would destroy his career.

The slam dunk would have been just making the Doctor really really cool, instead of really really gay. They maybe could have even kept the casting.
Audiences don't demand much, and they still fuck it up.

Its going to absolutely be tennant and piper next season as a member berry attempt to save the show, isn't it?

The Timeless Children

Empire of Death

the latest episode

Which was the worst?

That's the closing scene in Flash Gordon

So fine.

I'd like a third opinion.

I was worried it was going to be the girl who played joy.

Reality War. They gave Omega the Sutekh treatment from last series, only worse.

At least the Timeless Children had good redesigns for the cybermen.

Watching Unleashed and RTD is talking like he's gonna be around for a LONG time

Hasn't it already destroyed his career at this point?

The Valeyard was an attempt by the Rani to repopulate the timelords, I kinda like it.

McGann will forever be the last canonical Doctor for me.

Based.

I liked the music

Timeless Children as an episode isn't that bad dayo. There's like 5 minutes of canon breaking and the rest is a cyberman/master episode on Gallifrey.

You know what? At least with this current generation I can't say I was ever just bored.

The Chibnal era killed my love with dullness.

He never actually specified 15's age this time, I'm sure Big Finish will be able to squeeze in 40 boxsets between The Giggle and The Church on Ruby Road then another 40 between Empire of Death / Joy to the World / Robot Revolution.

Based.

Remember at the start when they said they had a 3 series plan for Ncuti?

youtube.com/watch?v=qMzssW1caC8

"It was always the plan to do this amount of seasons."

Same. For me Doctor Who ends with The Girl Who Never Was.

I need a brown gf

One post the other day referenced Omega having 'become his own legend'.

Implying Ncuti will do Big Finish

The guy is landing major roles in Hollywood. He's a very in-demand actor.

Bad Wolf Studios is being run like fucking North Korea is my guess
Yeah, Rusty does have identifiable vision and character to his work, at least. Unfortunately it's like that of George Lucas during the prequels.

The one thing I've enjoyed about the Doctor Who in the past 7 years is that we've finally gotten the long overdue sexo desi women representation

Proofs?

Education

Dame Allan's Schools, Newcastle upon Tyne

ohh. she's one of THOSE.

The guy is landing major roles in Hollywood.

no he isn't

reminder that the show died when Capaldi regenerated

anything “happening” now is gay fanfic

I don't know I kind of liked it when Susan was the Doctor's granddaughter and that was it.

Is there a reliable torrent yet?

He didn't regenerate. He died after the Mondasian cyberman put him in his TARDIS.

I just wonder what happened behind the scenes.

When Ncuti was on Graham Norton last year he claimed they were gearing up to film series 16 "early next year" but that line got cut from the broadcast interview, so it's probably down to Disney dragging their feet on renewing their deal. They can't start filming until they know what the budget's gonna be there's apparently 2 versions of each script for s16 to account for if it's just BBC money or BBC/Disney.

Was this bed always there?

is Ncuti really that chipper and enthusiastic as a person, or is it all an act?

i assumed he was like 20 or something, he's 32?

o-one of whats

is Ncuti really that chipper and enthusiastic as a person, or is it all an act?

He's literally an actor.

is an actor...cting?

anon-kun...

it's all in Ruby's mind. when Poppy vanishes, the cot stays. but only she can see it, The Moment style.

of course, none of it is real. she's just a nutcase.

But that's not a cot, it's a bed.

chair right in the middle of the walkway

I don't think that's up to code

Conrad's room in the Wish World was the TARDIS.

Damn, the TARDIS sucks now. Why does it look like an Apple product?

They already had all the set up as well.
Valeyard was supposed to be between regeneration 12 and the final regeneration.
A literal wish baby.
Really begs the question of why the Rani literally just didn't wish for a version of the Doctor who would side with and aid her in her plans.

I love Eight so much. I thought his boxset era was a waste and leaned too much into nuWho bullshit but I'm still happy to see him make appearances in Big Finish stories.

Tardis wiki protected their sixteenth doctor article so I can't remove that "female-presenting" nonsense

They really saw us coming huh

I'm a lot more outgoing now than I was at 20 tbqh, I stopped second guessing myself so much

It’s no secret how much I love this show, and I have always said I would love to return to the Whoniverse as I have some of my best memories there, so to be given the opportunity to step back on that TARDIS one more time was just something I couldn’t refuse, but who, how, why and when, you’ll just have to wait and see”

Billie press release

It's better ambiguous. Could be his grandchild by blood. Could be some orphan he rescued at took to 60s earth to hide her. I hope it's never explained. People forgot half the fun of Doctor Who was the Who part.

It's been four hours and I still don't know what to make of it.

recycle

the press release seems to imply that Russell T Davies is still involved, and indeed, he appears to have just cast another Doctor.

“Billie once changed the whole of television, back in 2005, and now she’s done it again! It’s an honour and a hoot to welcome her back to the TARDIS, but quite how and why and who is a story yet to be told. After 62 years, the Doctor’s adventures are only just beginning!”

STEVEN MOFFAT

So what happened with the Christmas special?

When he wrote BOOM in series 1 it was like he never left. However, in literally his next script the quality fell off a cliff.

Russell said he'd explain Bigeneration and he didn't

Mel turned up for no reason

Conrad can't see trans people yet he could last week and Rose Noble fades back in to the UNIT control room for no reason

Omega is a skeleton monster for no reason

There's giant dinosaurs for no reason

13 turns up for now reason

15 kills himself to alter time or something and ends up retconning Poppy out of his life meaning that it was for no reason

Truly an all timer

no conspiracy theory here anon, i used to live near that school. it's a private school for rich parents who want their kids set for life. i could grass on a local politician who sent his kids there, despite his views.

she also 'won' Miss Newcastle (Tyne Tees Modelling advert. not a real thing).

female-presenting

what, are we pretending billie piper's a tranny now? that's kinda fucked up

Eccleston speaks TRUTH TO POWER.
or he just speaks his mind. fuck all that 'press junket' bollocks.

the bed is actually Rassilon in disguise

Not even Moffat wanted to touch the Valeyard. The dream lord was as close as we got.
RTD will probably name a character the 'Valeyard' and have him show up for two seconds in the finale of S3 before he gets eaten by the Meddling Monk (who is inexplicably a giant CGI lobster)

one more time

Just a single special?

I thought his boxset era was a waste and leaned too much into nuWho bullshit

I'll forever be grateful that Night of the Doctor aired just as Dark Eyes was starting so the last one to get "canonised" was Molly. Liv and that other dyke can fuck off forever they're so ass compared to Charlie and Lucie.

Doctor regenerating into Suranne Jones would have been way better.

India Fisher looks like a dumpling but I'd happily give her one just because of how bssed Charley is.

McGann will forever be the last canonical Doctor for me.

Which point in Big Finish?

After Zagreus

After Scherzo

After Girl Who Never Was

After EDA S4

After Dark Eyes

After Mary's Story

Miss the part where The Rani says she basically birthed the other one? Bi-Generation is birth, Ncuti-Piper is Susan and Tennant is the doctor

The Time Lords have only been infertile since The Master's massacre in season 12

EDA4 is my stopping point unless he turns up in a good 5th, 6th or 7th story.

naw there the valeyard remember the Hellion put some ice in 15's heart

LMAO what a line

We had that anon. That was totally the issue with Chibnall's first season which is why we haven't been allowed anything new since.

Who?
