I reckon there's more chance of Olla the Heat Vampire turning up in a second 'Company of Friends', or Death's Head being ANYWHERE in the MCU, than there is of Jeremy Fitzoliver appearing in the third Doctor adventures.
Sigh. What it is to be a niche DW fan.
Random question, if you don't mind - is your username based on him? Or is it a coincidence?

Maybe they should delay introducing 14 until after the 60th and as long as all of them were to agree, have an anthology of new episodes each focusing one New Who Doctor: 9, 10, 11, 12,13. As sort of a celebration of everything in the modern era.
Sidenote: I know I might be in the minority with this but I only really want a multi Doctor special for the 60th if they can guarantee every modern Doctor will be there, otherwise it would just feel wrong. I might not even watch if it doesn’t include Capaldi. Fingers crossed that they get everyone🤞

Every Modern Doctor....so no classic doctors Realistically- Eccleston wont do it, David would likely do it, Matt is an unknown probably not if he is busy with Hollywood and Capaldi hmmm probably not but who knows
If Paul McGann doesn't get an onscreen appearance in the 60th then it will be one of the greatest crimes in Doctor Who history

Regarding a series of specials featuring other Doctors ... With CC having introduced the concept of a whole bunch of incarnations we knew nothing about, why not have a kind of 'Unbound' series, each featuring an alternative incarnation? Apart from appeasing fans who promise not to watch if 'their' Doctor isn't included, a one-off chance to play the Doctor for just one story, without being tied to a whole series, might attract some big names. No? Ah well, just a thought!
Also, I'm noting a similarity between the BBC's assurances that 'a new generation of Doctor Who will appear - watch this space' and Jonathan Powell's promise that 'there will be a new series of Doctor Who, but fans might have to wait a little longer than usual', back in 1989.

I don’t think I can mourn Jodie Whittaker’s departure, I’m too sad wondering if I will ever see or hear Peter playing 12 again😞

You could've just stopped at the first sentence. That's all you needed.
Oh right, a comment: I think Jamie Matheison should serve as an important reminder, especially now with Maxine Alderton, not to get carried away with premature exultation of someone to showrunner. There's a lot more to being the leader than just writing a couple of good eps. He delivered probably the best opening double in memory with Mummy/Flatline, but I think Girl and Oxygen missed that spark and I suspect because of the regularity we didn't get that real polish, which would've intensified if he'd come after Moffat.

Yeah if Matt or Peter were announced to return for Big Finish it would likely be around 2023 to hype up the 60th Anniversary year

If the Doctor ever got called a “Social Justice Warrior” (SJW) to their face they would take it as the biggest compliment and probably confuse the person calling them an “SJW” by thanking them and agreeing that they try to be.
Sidenote: I never understood why the phrase “Social Justice Warrior” is considered a bad thing and used as an insult, surely it should be a good thing and a compliment to be considered someone who is progressive and supports and stands up for social justice🤔

The kind who moan about not being able to make jokes about anything anymore (ignoring that stuff like South Park and Family Guy are still on, and also, Disney made a comedy about a kid who's imaginary friend was Hitler last year) but then get upset over anything. It went from that to SJW to Antifa to now Critical Race Theory - same gripes, different name.

Likewise being called "woke" - I always say "Well, I don't need to be woke...some of us were never sleeping when it comes to fairness".
