Missed opportunity, to be honest.

I have no problem with her being the Brigadier’s daughter, but then she mentions it ever so often… She doesn’t do this in the audios so I guess I can blame the writing

The Doctor shows her a picture of Mundy the first time she enters the TARDIS and says she’s a distant descendant.
I don’t think it was necessarily without their consent. Weird though that Ruby was chipped even though she’s not apparently a UNIT employee. And again, why wasn’t Mel at work?
“And I don’t think my father, the inventor of Toaster Strudel, would be too pleased to hear about this.”

I wonder how all this went down for 14, Donna, and co.
Was 14 also delusionally John Smith for a bit, before waking up one day back as the Doctor, confused as hell?

off topic, but if Rachel McAdams was British, she’d have such Doctor energy

Because then he couldn’t name them after his favorite blonde from 2005!!!
I actually liked it; it says nothing about Rose but is a little bit of character for Donna, since she’s the one who actually chose it, which I think was the intent. They both went for names connected to the Doctor. That said…
I think this is a good point. She didn’t choose a name related to the Doctor themself like Donna did; she chose the name of his crush. Which is just one step too far removed to be believable imo. (But then, she also made a plushie of Karvanista, whom the Doctor hadn’t even met at the time of the metacrisis, so clearly I’m putting more thought into this than RTD.)
I don’t think so. The metacrisis magic stuff wasn’t dependent upon her saying “nonbinary” (which, of course, made no sense anyway), just upon her being Donna’s biological child. I could be wrong, because I only watched the full episode once - just didn’t like it - but I don’t think the DoctorDonna heritage influenced her gender; it just gave her time lord abilities.

The American Doctor.
Or a new time lord, the Plastic.

It was such a ludicrous statement to make by RTD. 13 wasn’t even wearing a dress, she was wearing gender neutral clothes, and it’s kind of dangerous to imply men can’t wear dresses in today’s modern climate.

When are we getting a 16th Doctor thread? I wanna theorize but this does not seem like the place for it

Yeah, that works, I just want a 16th Doctor thread specifically so I can see fanart etc and share theories. Probably gotta wait till an official announcement, but this’ll do in the meantime.

If you want it and have a purpose for it (as it sounds like you do) then just create it.

Oh I may just do that, I was holding off cause I assumed an official one was being made cause people may not have seen the episode yet. If there’s not one after saturday, I’ll make one.

I think that will be a long wait tbh.

Yup. I suspect at this moment in time, even RTD may not know who or what Billie Piper is.

RTD did say in the latest issue of DWM that we’re getting David and Billie in the next unleashed, so it’ll probably get some mention there

Wonder if (and hope that) she will be considered the Sixteenth Doctor if the show doesn’t return. It gets to a point in that situation where RTD kind of has to say “oh I ALWAYS wanted Billie to be [whatever he’s just decided he always wanted]” so that we don’t get eighty different expanded universe things being in direct competition about the status of the Doctor (not like it hasn’t happened before, but it’s best to be avoided, surely).

I think that was filmed ages ago. Long before this late reshoot to TRW.

Surely they can’t seriously intend to air it while ignoring that Billie just returned though… right?
