Interesting. We would write it like this:
My favourite people are my parents, Catherine Tate and David Tennant.

Your parents are Catherine Tate and David Tennant?

That would have been awesome. Being related to David would also be a good way of becoming a part of the show.

I mean, I’m English and I see Oxford commas used all the time over here, also it originated here too (hence ‘Oxford’ comma)
That said yeah, the Oxford comma is ‘mandatory’ in Americal english, but not in UK english

“Real-life” for characters that exist in real life, like actual historical figures or even like, when Davina played herself.
BUT then use “Historical”, “Futurical”, “present day” or “alien” for the character origin.
We also have edge of destruction to account for. When the Doctor was Marc Cory!
I would’nt be surprised if we see Xanxia calling herself the Master

Do you mean Mission to the Unknown?
Not sure what you’re getting at here.
Or here?

I do. As you can see on my user profile, I haven’t really watched Doctor Who in a while.
Some people say Xanxia is the Master’s daughter and that when Missy talked about her daughter? He meant Xanxia and that was Xanxia’s brooch.

I think Douglas Adams at some point said that he toyed with the idea that Xanxia either was the Master’s Daughter or indeed the Master herself, but it never went beyond an idea stage.
But I could totally believe that Steven Moffat could have had that rummaging around somewhere in his brain when he wrote the Magician’s Apprentice.

In case you have a QA stage and need someone for exploratory testing before going live, please give me a shout. If time permits (which admittedly is a big ‘if’ for the next few weeks), I would be glad to help.

On x I saw an account about putting spag bol in Doctor who and there was an image of 13 giving bolognese sauce to spy master. It said “when I tell my father about spag bol”
And I made up spag bol Xanxia

The big update for this is in progress right now, which may cause filters to not work yet and the site to slow down. It has to do a huge amount of processing to move everything around!
It’s going to take a while… currently twiddling my thumbs.

This is very helpful, it was a right headache figuring out how to categorise some of the more ambiguous characters, and what to do when a character is an enemy in one story but a friend in another.

Morally ambiguous, perhaps? 
Also, any one episode character could end up coming back, like my husband Luvic, who is now propably part of the pantheon of chaos.

Well it took a very long time, longer than expected, but it’s mostly done now!
Just still need to add the “villain” and “real-life” tags to loads of characters, but I’ve done the main ones!
New “Characters” page and features coming next! But not today!

Nice. Looking forward to the new character pages. Just for your information this doesn’t seem to work as intended.
A lot of one aperecess characters in this list.

Oh yes at the last minute I changed my mind and put them all in 
Can’t decide on if they should be included if they are one-offs or not.

And it will be a list that you can type-to-search in soon, so not so daunting.

I think that one-off characters don’t need to be on the list but I can see it going eather way.

You are saying Ricky September doesn’t deserve to be on the list? What if I suddenly get the urge to watch the episode featuring him in 2067 but cannot for the life of me remember which episode it was???
