I've been pondering what a 60th Anniversary Doctor Who release would look like. This is only a second draft, but there's what I come up with.
I took the idea of the Unbound (David Warner) being the central character and went from there:
THE DALEK MANIPULATION OF TIME
1 : MENACE OF THE DALEKS
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, PAUL McGANN as the Eighth Doctor, ALEX KINGSTON as River Song, DEREK JACOBI as the Master and NICHOLAS BRIGGS as the Daleks
After dropping off Benny once more, the Unbound Doctor is tracked down by River Song who tells him the universe is in grave danger. The Daleks are working on a device that will rewrite a Time Lords’ personal history – and the Doctor is the target! This Unbound Doctor, being from a parallel universe, is immune from the devices’ effects. The Unbound Doctor must go down the timeline to rescue his alternate selves.
2 : THE JUNKYARD OF DEATH
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, DAVID BRADLEY as the First Doctor, CAROLE ANN FORD as Susan and FRAZER HINES as the Second Doctor
The Unbound Doctor traces the Second Doctor to 1960s London, where the First Doctor and Susan are staying prior to An Unearthly Child. The Unbound and Second Doctors have found a Dalek time bomb which they must diffuse.
3 : THE ETERNAL EXILE
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, ALEX KINGSTON as River Song, TIM TREOLAR as the Third Doctor, KATY MANNING as Jo Grant and JOHN BARROWMAN as Captain Jack
The Unbound Doctor arrives at UNIT HQ where he sees the life he could have led. River arrives and notifies him the timeline’s been changed!
4 : AN UNBOUND ARRANGEMENT
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, PETER DAVISON as the Fifth Doctor, JANET FIELDING as Tegan, DAVID TENNANT as the Tenth Doctor, GEORGIA TENNANT as Jenny, DAVID BANKS as the CyberLeader
The Unbound Doctor uses River’s Vortex Manipulator to travel to a warped future world ruled by the Cybermen. He Fifth and Tenth Doctor, as well as their daughter Jenny, are both in a band of rebels trying to save the world.
5 : BATTLE IN THE DEATH ZONE
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, TOM BAKER as the Fourth Doctor, LALLA WARD as Romana II, DAN STARKEY as Commander Skorg
The Unbound Doctor arrives in the Death Zone! His fourth incarnation and Romana are there, having finally arrived following their time in an Eddy following The Five Doctors. Is this a ruse by the Daleks to keep him out of the way?
6 : THE ULTIMATE WEAPON
Starring DAVID WARNER as the Unbound Doctor, ALEX KINGSTON as River Song, COLIN BAKER as the Sixth Doctor, SYLVESTER McCOY as the Seventh Doctor, LISA BOWERMAN as Benny
The Unbound Doctor is finally reunited with his TARDIS on a Dalek space station, where the Sixth and seventh Dctors are being held captive. The Unbound Doctor must destroy the time Device and restore the timeline – even if he cannot stop the Time War.
