If BF were to make another spin off from the 12th Doctor, who do you suspect it would be? Or whom/what would you like?

I’ve joked about this before but I could see a spin off series focusing on the superhero exploits of The Ghost.

I love almost everything about the episode's concept but the execution really leaves me wanting so much more.

I don't know about a Ghost box-set, but I probably wouldn't say no to a continuation of the Harmony Shoul (?) story...

I love The Return of Doctor Mysterio while also sharing your feeling about the actor playing The Ghost. I don't think he is terrible but to me he is the weak link in the cast. THat said I feel like this Christmas special is one of Peter Capaldi's high water marks as 12 and I loved Matt Lucas as Nardole in it. If I could have a spin-off series it would be Nardole borrowing the TARDIS. Doing stuff.

If Maisie Williams were up for working with BF - and it might be a long shot, admittedly, but I don't think it's out of the question - then an Ashildr spin-off would probably have the most mileage of any character/concept from the Capaldi era.

Well From The 12th Doctor Era already we have had Missy and the Class spin off
The most likely would be The Ghost from The Return of Doctor Mysterio
There is the possibility of Ashildr if Maisie Williams reprises her role- doubt Jenna Louise Coleman will come back anytime soon (not that thats a bad thing)
The Cyberbrig is another contender but extremely unlikely but i am probably one of the rare few that believes there could be something really poignant potential storytelling there
There could be a Danny pink as a soldier that could be a cool drama of him fighting in a war

A Nardole spin-off where we see what he gets up to in his spare time at the college😁 I imagine this would be a fairly comedic series 😄 It would also occasionally guest star Missy in the vault 😉
I am in two minds of a Ghost spin-off🤔 On one hand The Return of Doctor Misterio is my least favorite special of 12’s and find Ghost and his love interest slightly annoying, I think it has something to do with their performances and the whole nanny angle was a bit too cutesy for my taste (I have an automatic aversion to any media where an infant is heavily featured especially if it’s played up for cuteness 🥴). But perhaps it could be interesting if they have the ghost go up against and crossover with other Doctor Who characters🤔😊Maybe team up other Doctors, four or Sixie would be fun😁 Maybe see how the ghost deals with the Daleks or Master. Or perhaps some campier characters in the Whoniverse like Iris and Panda, with Iris trying to be a superhero herself and calling Panda her sidekick 😄 If they can create some good original foes to that aren’t overly generic baddies that would be good too😉 But most importantly I would want them to to make Ghost and his girlfriend more likable and less irritating perhaps with less of the cutesy stuff with the infant🤔🙂

He would be amazing. Either as university assistant or bad-a$$ fighting off Cybermen on the colony ship. Did you read the Missy Chronicles book? That has one absolutely amazing story which basically goes into the long suffering university assistant trying to keep Missy in check...
The Ghost... not so much.

Ooo I haven’t read the Missy Chronicles yet but I need to! Missy is my favorite Master!😊 Nardole should go up against the scorchies if he does get his own spin-off!😁he would defeat them by singing a version of the Baked Potato song!😄

It made me laugh out loud on a train several times because it is just perfect with the comedy elements. Basically what Missy, the Doctor and Nardole get up to at university.

It captures the tone of Nardie, 12 and Missy perfectly. You can hear the actors saying the lines in your head.

The Missy Chronicles also features the earliest ever thirteenth Doctor appearance, predating IIRC even “twice upon a time”.

I'm not sure if it qualifies as a spin-off or just what I'd want from a 12DA series, but I'd love to see the 12th Doctor's centuries-long tenure as a professor explored. Each story could be a different lecture, where the Doctor may or may not use time travel to help make his points. We could get lots of fun "urban legend" stuff from the strange and infamously eccentric professor who can sometimes be found therein.
I'd also really like to see Capaldi's Doctor deal with some of the mundanity of teaching.

Another story thread that was dropped and could be explored in any future Capaldi era audios is the Minister of War. It's even more underdeveloped than GUS and Harmony Shoal, so they could have a field day.
