Odd opinions Storyline where the world mysteriously starts operatIng like a sitcom and the Doctor and their companions have to figure out why there is suddenly a laugh track ( you have to admit there is something unintentionally creepy about about an audience laughing that you can’t see)
I would love Frobisher the penguin to make at least one appearance on the tv show! Perhaps 13 and Yaz and Jack could help him solve a murder mystery!
I think it would be interesting if for big finish they had Rose, River Song, and Clara were asked to save the Doctor and they would have to team up together. I imagine there would be lots of arguing over who was leader at first and who the Doctor liked better out of the three of them. They would eventually bond though realizing they had more in common than not.
It’s better when Doctor Who takes a massive risk with character or plot development! Even if a vocal group of people hate the direction it takes at least its trying something new. And even then someone somewhere is going to like it 😉 Better to be bold and risk people not getting it, than being bland and pleasing no one.
At the moment I much prefer what they are doing with classic Doctors at Big Finish than what they are doing with modern Doctors. Their classic Doctor stories plus 8 have real weight to them and story and character development (ironically more like the modern Doctors on tv). Even though there are some good ones for the most part the modern Doctor audios seem almost too inconsequential. I want more story archs and character development. I did think the Donna Noble Kidnapped and Missy Volume 1 were good in that respect.
I would like more quirky or unusual concept stories again on both tv and BF. Kind of like during the Moffat era or Early BF.
I am curious when the Curator said about the Doctor revisiting a few familiar faces which faces he meant other than 4’s. Also I wonder if the revisited faces have the exact same personalities to the previous incarnations they resemble (maybe they are even continuations of those incarnations) or do they just look like previous favorite incarnations but with their own distinct personalities. Also if the curator has Four’s face but older does that then mean that the Doctor could revisit familiar faces but at different ages than they previously had? Is the curator a continuation of 4 or a totally separate incarnation that just has 4’s face?
This is silly but something I always wondered is: Does the Doctor need to bathe or shower as often as humans do? We have seen at least 3 and 11 take showers. I sometimes wonder if the Doctor does or doesn’t bathe regularly in between all those adventures? Perhaps the Doctor doesn’t get as gross as humans get without bathing for a while? I kind of would be curious to know what the Doctors bath time in the TARDIS is like. For some reason I keep picturing them having an almost child like bath time complete with a bubble bath and a rubber duck.
I have said this before and I will say it again I want a makeover story with an incarnation of the Doctor with them changing in a rather unexpected way and having to decide whether they like it or not.

Good news! There is a story floating around called Punchline, written by Rob Shearman (of Jubilee, The Holy Terror, et al.) under a penname and starring Sylvester McCoy as "Dominic", that covers similar territory. It's very clever and experimental if you can find it.

Is The Master also The War Chief? Pfft, that’s sOoO last year’s theory! Personally I think the Monk is the Master.

The Face of Boe isn't Captain Jack. The Face of Boe is the final regeneration of the Timeless Child. So all of the times they've appeared on the show have been multi-Doctor episodes.

Is The Master also The War Chief? Depends on the day. Even the FASA Roleplaying Sourcebooks couldn't agree and they were largely written by the same authors. Both ideas, a proto-Master or a standalone character, are really tempting. I find it difficult to choose. I reckon Keith Hamilton Cobb could have done a solid War Chief. He's one of my favourite fantasy casts if the character were ever given more incarnations.

I think the War Chief, Monk, Master, Ronald McDonald, Boris Johnson & Donald Trump all the same character.

Judging by fan theories about the next series (*any* next series), I reckon that Susan and Omega and the Rani and Paul McGann are all the same character. Think about it, have you *ever* seen them in a single nuWho episode together? I think not.

I love the big epic multi Doctor stories in tv and big finish but it would nice to have more lower stakes multi Doctor stories like The Two Doctors or Time Crash🤔😁 I think it would be fun if maybe with tv or big finish if we got a multi Doctor story where the Doctor celebrates their birthday with their other selves and we just see how they would all interact with each other at the party perhaps with a few party crashes as well😊
Or else just a few incarnations solving a smaller scale mystery, perhaps even two incarnations and their companions going on vacation together.
Or perhaps River accidentally schedules dates with more than one version of her husband/wife, and has to juggle all of them at once!
I would like 13 to meet more timeless Doctors in a not necessarily epic way, just see how each incarnation lives, who their companions are, and their personality quirks. I wouldn’t mind if this is how series 13 is structured if 13 meets a different previously unknown incarnation each episode and teams up with them🤔😃

Five's the wallflower, comfortably off to the side. Eight is sitting on the sofa near one of the coffee tables playing music on a row of wine glasses. Three's organised pass the parcel (with hilarious results, as other incarnations have "improved" one another's gifts). Two's dancing on the balcony while Seven plays the spoons. Sixie's playing ginger beer pong with One (it's not a competition... until it absolutely is). Eleven's officially been put in charge of music, but Ten ("You'll love this, promise.") and Twelve (" Youth music...") keep tampering with the playlist, so it's an eccentric mix of styles. Four's regaling guests at the heart of the room with wide-eyed stories while the kitchen burns ( *sniff* "What smells like antique Rome?"). Thirteen's on door duty, seeing people come and go; anyone drifting off to somewhere quiet by themselves, she's the one who checks up on them. And someone in that line up is playing host, but no one can remember quite who it is anymore.

And someone in that line up is playing host, but no one can remember quite who it is anymore. Yes!😁 I wonder what Nine’s doing?🤔 And do all the companions come? Good question. Hmm... I reckon he's probably keeping to himself in the garden somewhere. It's not that he doesn't enjoy a party, but there's just a bit too much past/future in there and not enough distance for him yet. Maybe Thirteen (and other incarnations) leave little snacks and things from the tables inside for him? Eventually, he's relaxed enough that he falls asleep, so there was a benefit after all. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Companions by the dozen. I'm picturing this as maybe a rented out/condemned (maybe it was rented, as planned, but the TARDIS brought them long after) stage theatre. Ace ruins the speakers. Frobisher's running charades with Kamelion. Leela is questioning the honour of Destrii's Truth or Dare game. Ian, Barbara and Evelyn are essentially parenting some of the more reckless companions. K9 and Zoe are controlling the lighting rig. Nyssa's organised a trivia challenge, and so on.
