Doctor Who will return to TV

I wouldn’t mind an Irish Doctor or companion.

Now is time for the Scandinavian Doctor! Or companion! Or both!

Michael Sheen. Imagine if they then rebooted Staged.
“I’m Doctor Who!”
“So am I buddy boy!”

I don’t know the industry but I’d imagine this is, at the very least, frowned upon if not wholly unallowable legally.

If the companies consented anyway it was just a thought.

A four part Dalek epic? He wanted to make the series finale half the series long?

Oh no, he was probably convinced that they’d be up to 12 episodes again at that point!

Also my first thought for a Welsh Doctor. And I would absolutely want a multi-Doctor special with both Michael Sheen and David Tennant, with how amazing they are together.

(Then again, since they have such great chemistry, make Tennant be the Master for Sheen’s Doctor…)

I can just imagine the number of fans who’d go into melt down if that happened!

Not too sure if this is the best thread to discuss these things or not? Felt like it fits sort of.

Could we maybe have a ‘what could have been’ thread as this isn’t really about the return but a parallel universe where season 3 happened?

Fascinating that Jack Thorne has written a full episode, is this new news?? He’s a fantastic writer and it’s an unbelievable shame we’ll presumably never see that

I loved the set but, in truth, I don’t think it needs to be anywhere near as big when DW returns. They could make a much smaller set that is entirely usable and could still look amazing without costing anywhere near as much. Time to think clever.

It’s not the first time he’s had a crack at it. He was commissioned for a first draft back during Steven’s time, and it just didn’t quite work for what Steven was doing with the show.

The series three ideas are fine. But these sound awful.
