I want an Armageddon Factor Drax, not a Trouble With (which I had a huge problem with btw). A Drax who brings levity, which is much needed in a Time War setting, but doesn't make the other characters look like chumps. Simon Pegg could do that well. He's great at voice work, and I've always thought in the Cornetto Trilogy films he strikes a nice balance between comedy and not becoming too panto.

ZOMG.. A bit sad thinking what might have been if we had a War Doctor vs War Master story/series.. the battle of the "Sirs"... Just need Sir Ian McKellan, Sir Patrick Stewart, Sir Sean Connery and Dame Judi Dench.. imagine that..

He does have a habit of losing his memory, so that would have been easy Cheers Tony

I wonder who the Master's companion will be. Yes I am always excited about the companion even when they are the Master's

Yes I am always excited about the companion even when they are the Master's It's been a while since I watched (new) series 3, but did we ever learn how The Master first met Lucy? Could there be some scope for a pre-regeneration encounter, establishing a reason why he came back and made her his wife/companion...?

All we learnt was that he met her on Earth and showed her the end of the universe, which presumably places their meeting whilst Simm was in possession of the Doctor's TARDIS with it's co-ordinates fused between 21st Century and the end of the universe. I guess there is scope in there for a pre-regeneration meeting, but it does seem a bit unnecessarily complex.

I'm curious to see how Janine does. It's unusual for a new writer to be on such a high profile release. Its the 1st announced release by her, not her 1st BF commission
from her Twitter
First one released 😉

Love the music in the trailer, by the brilliant Ioan Morris. The drums, THE DRUMS!

Also, wonder if these three Time War series will eventually cross-over. At least the War Master and Gallifrey (since 8TW will probably already feature a few Gallifrey characters).

Well, the Master doesn't torture people at least. Probably thinks it's a waste of time. The Daleks however, have turned it into a hobby. Their guns are deliberately tuned so that when they strike a target, the evoked potential is perfectly aligned to cause an excruciating amount of agony before they die. John Simm's Master did torture The Tenth Doctor and Captain Jack. Huh, good point. I'd completely forgotten. Torture isn't his primary MO then. I want an Armageddon Factor Drax, not a Trouble With (which I had a huge problem with btw). A Drax who brings levity, which is much needed in a Time War setting, but doesn't make the other characters look like chumps. Sort of like Vila in Blake's 7, getting the job done but not quietly. It's a pity that Search for the Doctor never got a reprint because I think you'd like that interpretation of Drax. Competent and self-serving with only a touch of flippancy; a man closer to being crookedly sly rather than a slimy weasel. Like Aloysius Parker from Thunderbirds. His TARDIS is shaped like a 1956 Cadillac Eldorado convertible (for reasons the book delves into briefly).

But this one sounded AMAZING. This one did what most of their trailers don't. It teased us, but didn't spoil anything that will be in the release.

She had been with him for a while, but had no idea about his past (or who Yana really was). To be fair, he would have killed her as soon as she spoke ... oh, wait ... Cheers Tony
